text: A flywheel used in machines acts as a reservoir to store energy when the supply of energy is excess and the same is released when the requirement arises i.e. its primary function is to sort out variations in the speed of a shaft which are caused due to torque fluctuations.
text: Serving as a reservoir by storing energy during the period when the supply of energy is more than the requirement and releasing it during the period when the requirement of the energy is more than the supply, a flywheel provides an effective way to smooth out the fluctuation of speed.
