ABSTRACT

CONCLUSIONS

REFERENCES

Today ,the most important aspect on which research is going on is How to make already discovered thing more and more

efficient such that it can give more and more output

with same or less amount of input.

This input is generally given in

the form of energy.

Following to this KERS is an important innovation

because we recover that heat

energy which merely goes in the

heat form to atmosphere.

By equipping it in cars we can get a better resource utilization and make our cars

more environment friendly.

So, how does it work? Kinetic energy that you’d ordinarily lose to heat while

braking is sent to a flywheel, which can capture 150 watt hours in around

eight seconds of gentle braking. That’s the same amount of energy

you’d need to charge 25 new iPhones .

Once it’s been recovered, it can be stored for about half an hour or used

immediately, either as a supplement to the engine, or in one great big lump.Equipping cars with a KERS gives

them 80hp instantly And all this thrust comes from a little

box of gears and clutches that weighs 60kg, requires virtually no

maintenance, and will last for what the company claim is the realistic life of

the car.

It’s a Technology for Present and future because it’s environment friendly ,has low production cost and highly customizable. Adaptation of a KERS means reducing Fuel consumption and CO2 Emission.

A kinetic energy recovery system (often known simply as KERS) is

an automotive system for recovering a moving vehicle's kinetic energy under braking. A mechanical kinetic energy

recovery system is smaller and lighter than a petrol-electric hybrid

system, and in real-world conditions it hacks back fuel

consumption by a similar percentage to a hybrid. And

without troubling the engineers too much, you can add an F1-style

boost function, which gives you a big lump of torque on tap if you

need to overtake. Or do big, smoky burnouts. In this way it becomes a useful , efficient ,

eco-friendly and economic than other instant acceleration producing equipments.
