Feature papers represent the most advanced research with significant potential for high impact in the field. A Feature
Paper should be a substantial original Article that involves several techniques or approaches, provides an outlook for
future research directions and describes possible research applications.
Feature papers are submitted upon individual invitation or recommendation by the scientific editors and must receive
positive feedback from the reviewers.
Editor’s Choice articles are based on recommendations by the scientific editors of MDPI journals from around the world.
Editors select a small number of articles recently published in the journal that they believe will be particularly
interesting to readers, or important in the respective research area. The aim is to provide a snapshot of some of the
most exciting work published in the various research areas of the journal.

The purpose of this study is to analyze and to design for the hybrid power systems with variable inertia flywheel while the hybrid power system consists of 1 power plant, 1 variable inertia flywheel which is used as the energy storage device, a planetary gear set, and a set of actuators. First, the kinematic and kinetic equations of the hybrid power system are developed in order to establish the relationships of the speed and torque of all elements, and the specific speed and torque of the output needed for the vehicle can be found by using the software “ADVISOR” in various operation modes. Then, with the prescribed mechanical brake energy recovery system model and a control model, a comprehensive analysis can be achieved. Finally, various driving modes, such as ECE, ECE+EUDC and New York Bus driving mode are investigated in order to demonstrate the characteristics of the hybrid power system. The numerical results show and conclude the effectiveness of the variable inertia flywheel, and the improvement on the efficiency of hybrid power systems. Copyright Form of EVS25.
