Sentences with phrase «kinetic energy otherwise»

It automatically recovers kinetic energy otherwise lost during braking and converts this into additional battery charging.

Also, like other hybrids, the Prius captures kinetic energy otherwise lost during coasting and braking and converts it into electricity, a technology called regenerative braking.

This converts kinetic energy otherwise wasted as heat in the brake system into electric power saved for subsequent use.

Not exact matches

Yes, Volt helps to recharge its own battery through regenerative braking, which captures otherwise lost kinetic energy and transfers it back to the battery.

A regenerative braking system automatically recharges the battery by converting the vehicle's kinetic energy that would be otherwise lost in braking.

Otherwise, turbulence dissipates rapidly as the kinetic energy is converted into internal energy by viscous shear stress.

Not its kinetic energy in a moving frame, not its potential energy in a moving frame or otherwise.

... re my last comment — interesting point, the actual change in kinetic energy dissipation in the area of the wind farm was a small fraction of the energy output of the wind farm, because much of that energy would otherwise have been dissipated by land cover.
