Energy recovery

Air conditioning

Air conditioning, often abbreviated as A/C (US) or air con (UK), is the process of removing heat from an enclosed space to achieve a more comfortable interior temperature (sometimes referred to as 'comfort cooling') and in some cases also strictly controlling the humidity of internal air.

See Regenerative shock absorber and Air conditioning

Boost converter

A boost converter or step-up converter is a DC-to-DC converter that increases voltage, while decreasing current, from its input (''supply'') to its output (''load'').

See Regenerative shock absorber and Boost converter

Electric generator

In electricity generation, a generator is a device that converts motion-based power (potential and kinetic energy) or fuel-based power (chemical energy) into electric power for use in an external circuit.

Electric vehicle

An electric vehicle (EV) is a vehicle that uses one or more electric motors for propulsion.

See Regenerative shock absorber and Electric vehicle

Electricity

Electricity is the set of physical phenomena associated with the presence and motion of matter possessing an electric charge.

See Regenerative shock absorber and Electricity

Energy

Energy is the quantitative property that is transferred to a body or to a physical system, recognizable in the performance of work and in the form of heat and light.

See Regenerative shock absorber and Energy

Energy conversion efficiency

Energy conversion efficiency (η) is the ratio between the useful output of an energy conversion machine and the input, in energy terms.

See Regenerative shock absorber and Energy conversion efficiency

Heat

In thermodynamics, heat is the thermal energy transferred between systems due to a temperature difference.

See Regenerative shock absorber and Heat

Hybrid electric vehicle

A hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) is a type of hybrid vehicle that combines a conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) system with an electric propulsion system (hybrid vehicle drivetrain).

Hydraulics

Hydraulics is a technology and applied science using engineering, chemistry, and other sciences involving the mechanical properties and use of liquids.

See Regenerative shock absorber and Hydraulics

Linear motion

Linear motion, also called rectilinear motion, is one-dimensional motion along a straight line, and can therefore be described mathematically using only one spatial dimension.

See Regenerative shock absorber and Linear motion

Linear motor

A linear motor is an electric motor that has had its stator and rotor "unrolled", thus, instead of producing a torque (rotation), it produces a linear force along its length.

Magnet

A magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is a private land-grant research university in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Regenerative braking

Regenerative braking is an energy recovery mechanism that slows down a moving vehicle or object by converting its kinetic energy or potential energy into a form that can be either used immediately or stored until needed. Regenerative shock absorber and Regenerative braking are energy recovery.

Shock absorber

A shock absorber or damper is a mechanical or hydraulic device designed to absorb and damp shock impulses.

Tufts University

Tufts University is a private research university in Medford and Somerville, Massachusetts, with additional facilities in Boston and Grafton, Massachusetts, and in Talloires.

Turbine

A turbine (from the Greek τύρβη, tyrbē, or Latin turbo, meaning vortex) is a rotary mechanical device that extracts energy from a fluid flow and converts it into useful work.

See Regenerative shock absorber and Turbine

Vibration

Vibration is a mechanical phenomenon whereby oscillations occur about an equilibrium point.
