Abstract

This study to optimize and analyze the structure and material of Flywheel Hybrid Module (FHM) in order to get the best performance. Optimization Performance Phase is the final stage before the prototype of this project were developed by P5: Prototype and Testing Team. The design of the Flywheel Hybrid Module (FHM) is divided into two main parts which are flywheel and rim. The design of the FHM is follow the correct parameters suggest by P2: Embodiment Design Team. The method that used to reduce the mass of the rim design is Topology. For flywheel design, Topograpghy method was used to increase the strength of the structure of flywheel. Before run the optimization, the loads and acceleration that applied on the design based on real life when the motorcycle moving. The acceleration that applied on the rim by P3: Simulation and Analysis Team is 9000 rpm, but during optimization the acceleration is 13500 rpm. This is because every component or parts have their own safety factor. Safety factor for the FHM designs is 1.5. so, the acceleration need to multiple with the safety of the rim. The optimization suggestion of the software being redraw in catia and the analysis of the comparison between before and after being discuss in this report. The final result rim and flywheel design being improve than the original drawing. Lastly, Ashby method is material selection in FHM components is being optimize. From here, the best material was chosen in order to develop FHM was aluminum 2024.
