En ce qui concerne le stockage par volants, les systèmes couramment disponibles sont encore relativement peu attrayants, pour de multiples raisons, en particulier leur coût excessif et l'énergie de rotation perdue par friction après quelques heures de fonctionnement seulement. C'est pourquoi leur développement a moins pour but le stockage d'énergie électrique que la récupération de l'énergie libérée pendant le freinage d'un véhicule (par exemple un autobus). Cette énergie est actuellement perdue sous forme de chaleur dans les freins et pourrait être emmagasinée sur les volants d'inertie. 1, record 10, French, - stockage%20d%27%C3%A9nergie%20dans%20des%20volants%20d%27inertie

Stabilisation and orientation [of a space vehicle] by inertial flywheels consists in accurately aligning the axes of three flywheels with the axes of reference (roll, pitch and yaw). When one of these flywheels is moved in yaw by an electric motor, its angular moment increases and the vehicle is subjected to a reactive couple. Inertial flywheels provide very fine control of orientation or stabilisation, because the couples set up may be very small. 1, record 13, English, - stabilisation%20by%20inertial%20flywheel

Stabilisation and orientation [of a space vehicle] by inertial flywheels consists in accurately aligning the axes of three flywheels with the axes of referecne (roll, pitch and yaw). When one of these flywheels is moved in yaw by an electric motor, its angular moment increases and the vehicle is subjected to a reactive couple. Inertial flywheels provide very fine control of orientation or stabilisation, because the couples set up may be very small. 1, record 17, English, - orientation%20by%20inertial%20flywheel

Le volant est constitué d'une masse tournante parfaitement équilibrée, et présentant un moment d'inertie important par rapport à son axe de rotation. Il sert à réguler la vitesse de rotation d'un arbre utilisé dans une transmission de mouvement, et sur lequel il est fixé. Si cette vitesse augmente, il en limite l'accroissement en absorbant une partie de l'énergie correspondante, qu'il pourra restituer à l'arbre si sa vitesse vient à diminuer, afin de réduire cette diminution. 1, record 31, French, - volant
