Physical gyroscope energy storage

How does a spinning gyroscope store energy?

A spinning gyroscope stores energy proportional to its moment of inertia and the square of its angular velocity ω. This can be thought of in analogy to the energy stored by any moving body. In a linear system, kinetic energy is mv 2 /2. In a rotating system it is Iω 2 /2.

How gyroscopic effects help with energy accumulation?

Gyroscopic efects can help with energy accumulation. The bigger rotating speed is achieved the bigger amount of energy is stored. When the gyroscope is well designed the eficiency can be much higher than in the batteries. In other cases we want to suppress or compensate it (in case of the direction change of the rotating device).

What are gyroscopic effects?

It can be also used on ships and boats, where big wheel is rotating and preventing the boat to overturn. Gyroscopic efects can help with energy accumulation. The bigger rotating speed is achieved the bigger amount of energy is stored. When the gyroscope is well designed the eficiency can be much higher than in the batteries.

How does a spinning gyroscope 110 work?

The spinning gyroscope generates electricity through the conversion of its precession by the coupling mechanism. This continuous rotation of the rotary motor produces the electricity energy from the rotation. The generated electricity is then used to power a load or device or is stored in a rechargeable battery.

When does the gyroscope stop receiving energy from the power supply?

After the initial powering by the power supply, the gyroscope in this patent may cease receiving energy from the power supply once the partitioned portion of the electricity generated by the motor is sufficient to maintain spinning of the gyroscope.

How does a gyroscope work?

A gyroscope operates based on Newton's principle that a massive rapidly spinning body rigidly resists perturbation and reacts to a disturbing torque by precessing or rotating slowly around a precession axis orthogonal to the axis of the disturbing torque and the axis of the gyroscope's spin vector.
