A kinetic energy recovery system (often known simply as KERS, or kers) is an automotive system for recovering a moving vehicle's kinetic energy under braking. The recovered energy is stored in a reservoir (for example a flywheel or high voltage batteries) for later use under acceleration
The KERS stands for Kinetic energy recovery system.
The device recovers the energy that is present in the waste heat created by the car’s braking process.
This presentation describes the complete working of flywheel based Kinetic Energy recovery system. It is used in racing cars like F1 and other racing cars.
These slides use concepts from my (Jeff Funk) course entitled analyzing hi-tech opportunities to analyze how the economic feasibility of kinetic energy recovery systems is slowly becoming better through improvements in batteries, hydraulic pumps, and flywheels. Many of these systems are currently used in Formula 1 race cars because they enable these cars to achieve higher acceleration and longer times between pit stops. For consumers, flywheels may become the energy storage technology of choice for vehicles particularly as improvements in carbon nanotubes and graphene occur.
The rates of improvement for energy and power storage densities for batteries have been very slow and those of flywheels have been much faster. One of the reasons for the rapid improvements in the densities for flywheels is that improvements in the strength per weight of materials have enabled faster rotations and the storage densities are a function of rotation velocities squared. As shown in the slides, carbon fiber has about four times the strength to weight ratio and seven times the energy density of glass. Since carbon nanotubes have strength to weight ratios 15 times higher and graphene has ones 30 times higher than do carbon fiber, energy storage densities of 120,000 kJ/kg or 33.6 kWh are possible with graphene. This energy density is about 100 times higher than is currently available from lithium-ion batteries.

regenerative breaking is energy conversion method .by using conventional braking more energy is lossed in the form of heat by using this we can convert this energy into usefull forms
In this paper, the regenerative braking system (RBS) is implemented in the hybrid vehicle which is made to run using internal combustion engine and batteries. A regenerative brake is an apparatus, a device or a system which allows the vehicle to recapture and store some part of the kinetic energy that would be 'lost' as heat during applying brake. The total amount of energy lost in this way depends on how many times, how hard and for how long the brakes are applied. Energy lost during braking in this hybrid vehicle is used to recharge the battery. Since regenerative braking results in an additional increase in energy output for a given energy input to a vehicle, the efficiency is improved. It is used to improve the overall efficiency of the vehicle by 25% using RBS. The dynamo is fixed on the rear wheel of the vehicle which is beneficial in two ways, one that it helps to covert the kinetic energy into electrical energy and other that it controls the friction produced inside the wheel which in turn increases the life time of brake pads. Fixed at clearance angle using weld it shifts from wheel hub to wheel rim while application of brake giving more effectiveness to the vehicle.

This ppt is on regenerative braking in electric vehicle.Electric vehicles, or EVs for short, are becoming more and more popular as an alternative to traditional gasoline-powered cars. These cars are powered by an electric motor that is run on electricity stored in rechargeable batteries, rather than by burning fossil fuels. The batteries are typically lithium-ion, which is the same type of battery found in smartphones and laptops.
The first electric cars were developed in the mid-19th century, but it wasn't until the late 20th century that they began to be developed on a larger scale. The biggest factor driving the development of EVs has been concern over the environmental impact of gasoline-powered vehicles. While gasoline-powered cars produce emissions such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter, EVs produce zero tailpipe emissions, meaning that they do not contribute to air pollution.
There are two main types of electric vehicles: battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). BEVs run entirely on electricity and have no gasoline engine, while PHEVs have both an electric motor and a gasoline engine, allowing them to run on electricity for short distances before switching to gasoline for longer trips.
The biggest advantage of electric vehicles is their environmental impact. By producing zero tailpipe emissions, EVs help to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. This is especially important as the transportation sector is one of the largest contributors to greenhouse gas emissions globally. EVs also reduce dependence on oil and can help to stabilize fuel prices.
Another advantage of electric vehicles is their lower operating costs. While the upfront cost of an electric vehicle is typically higher than a gasoline-powered car, the cost of fueling and maintaining an EV is lower. Electricity is cheaper than gasoline, and EVs require less maintenance than traditional cars because they have fewer moving parts.
One of the biggest challenges facing electric vehicles is range anxiety. Unlike gasoline-powered cars, which can be refueled in a matter of minutes, electric vehicles require charging, which can take hours. This means that drivers must carefully plan their trips to ensure that they have enough charge to get to their destination. However, advances in battery technology are making it possible for EVs to travel further on a single charge, reducing range anxiety.
Another challenge facing electric vehicles is the availability of charging infrastructure. While gasoline stations are ubiquitous, charging stations are still relatively rare, especially in rural areas. However, governments and private companies are working to install more charging stations to make it easier for EV drivers to charge their cars.
Despite these challenges, the popularity of electric vehicles is increasing rapidly.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

2. OUTLINE :
• Introduction
• History
• Basic Elements of KERS
• Working Principle
• Types of KERS
• Advantages and Disadvantages of KERS
• Conclusion.
3. INTRODUCTION :
• KERS is a collection of parts which takes some of kinetic
energy of a vehicle under deceleration, stores this energy
and then releases the stored energy back into the drive train
of the vehicle, providing a power boost to that vehicle.
• Thus the driver has two power sources, one is the engine
and other is the stored kinetic energy.
4. HISTORY :
• The first of these systems to be revealed was the flybrid.
• This system weighs 24 kg and has an energy capacity of
400 KJ after allowing for internal losses.
• A maximum power boost of 60 kW for 6.67 seconds is
available.
5. BASIC ELEMENTS OF KERS :
• In essence a KERS systems is simple, you need a
component for generating the power, one for storing it and
another to control it all.
The KERS system has three main components :
1. The MGU,
2. The PCU,
3. Batteries/Flywheel.
6. MGU(MOTOR/GENERATOR UNIT) :
• While a motor-generator set may consist of distinct motor
and generator machines coupled together, a single unit
motor-generator will have both rotor coils of the motor
and the generator wound around a single rotor, and both
coils share the same outer field coils or magnets working
in two modes, the MGU both creates the power for the
batteries when the car is braking, then return the power
from the batteries to add power directly to the engine,
when the KERS button is deployed.
7. PCU(POWER CONTROL UNIT) :
• It serves two purposes, firstly to invert and control the
switching of current from batteries to the MGU and
secondly to monitor the status of individual cells with the
battery.
• Managing the battery is critical as the efficiency of a pack
of Li-ion cell will drops if one cell starts to fail.
8. WORKING PRINCIPLE :
• The basic working principle involves the storing the
energy involved with deceleration and using it for
acceleration.
• A standard KERS operates by a ‘charge cycle ‘and a ‘boost
cycle’.
• As the car slows for a corner, an actuator unit captures the
waste kinetic energy from rear brakes. This collected
kinetic energy is then passed to the CPU and the storaging
system.
10. TYPES OF KERS :
There are two basic types of KERS systems :
1. Electrical,
2. Mechanical.
• The main difference between them is in the way they
convert the energy and how they store it in the vehicle.
11. ELECTRICAL KERS :
• In electrical KERS, braking rotational force is captured by
an MGU mounted to the engines crankshaft.
• This MGU takes the electrical energy that it converts from
kinetic energy and stores it in batteries.
• The most difficult part in designing the electrical KERS is
how to store the electrical energy.
• Most racing systems uses a lithium battery which is
nothing but a large phone battery.
12.
13. MECHANICAL KERS :
• The mechanical KERS system has a flywheel as the energy
storage device and it does away with MGUs by replacing
them with a transmission to control and transfer the energy
to and from the driveline.
• The kinetic energy of the vehicle ends up as a kinetic
energy of a rotating flywheel through the use of shafts and
gears.
14.
15. ADVANTAGES OF KERS :
• High power capability
• Light weight and small size.
• Long system life of upto 250,000 kms.
• Completely safe.
• A truly green solution.
• High efficiency storage and recovery.
16. DISADVANTAGES OF KERS :
• The KERS system can weigh 35 kg or more, and for many
teams this means they have to decrease the amount of
ballast in car.
• The battery-based system stores the energy as an electric
currents , and any fool knows electric current can be
dangerous.
• The electric current stored by the system is enough to kill
someone(only a few milliamps through the heart can kill a
person)
17. CONCLUSION :
• It’s a technology for the present and the future because it is
environment friendly, reduces emission, and has a low
production cost.
• The KERS have major areas of development in power
density, life, simplicity, effectiveness and first and
foremost the cost of devices.
