    A flywheel is a heavy rotating body that stores energy in the form of kinetic energy and acts as an energy bank between a power source and driven machinery. It functions to store and release energy when needed, reduce the power capacity required of a motor, and reduce fluctuations in speed. The document discusses the design of flywheels, including their functions, torque analysis, types of flywheel designs like solid disk and rimmed, and material selection.
