The creation of internal combustion engine is a significant milestone in power
engineering world which simplified high mechanical energy demand jobs like moving vehicle and
machinery. Even though the internal combustion engine gives lot of advantages, however, this type
of engine is incapable to convert the heat energy from fuel combustion to the mechanical energy
efficiently. Small capacity engine e.g. motorcycle engine having the power conversion efficiency
between 25-30%. Therefore, alternative power source is required to support the internal combustion
engine in order to increase the overall system efficiency. These phenomena give encouragement to
implement the hybridization process. This is to increase the system efficiency in transferring power
to the wheel. Hybridization processes e.g. flywheel as secondary power source can increase power
transfer efficiency between 30%-80%. Hence, the purpose of this research is to develop the
mathematical model of the power transfer efficiency of flywheel hybrid motorcycle by using back
trace simulation method. This model will record the amount of energy use in acceleration phase of
the driving cycle. Subsequently, the efficiency ratio of motorcycle power transfer is calculated and
comparison of those ratios between the conventional motorcycle and the hybrid motorcycle is made.
The outstanding results show that the hybrid motorcycle is capable to conserve the energy used up
to 36% compare to the conventional motorcycle that wasted energy up to 200%. As a conclusion,
flywheel as the secondary power source is capable to supply enough energy to propel the
motorcycle forward. |
