A regenerative brake is an energy recovery mechanism which slows a vehicle or object by converting its kinetic energy into a form which can be either used immediately or stored until needed. This contrasts with conventional braking systems, where the excess kinetic energy is converted to unwanted and wasted heat by friction in the brakes. In addition to improving the overall efficiency of the vehicle, regeneration can greatly extend the life of the braking system as its parts do not wear as quickly.
The most common form of regenerative brake involves an electric motor as an electric generator. In electric railways the electricity so generated is fed back into the supply system. In battery electric and hybrid electric vehicles, the energy is stored chemically in a battery, electrically in a bank of capacitors, or mechanically in a rotating flywheel. Hydraulic hybrid vehicles use hydraulic motors to store energy in the form of compressed air.
Regeneration is renewal through the internal processes of a body or system. Something which embodies this action can be described as regenerative. Many titles of cultural work and cultural and scientific concepts use the term, and may refer to:
What is regenerative braking? How do electric cars and hybrid cars regenerate power through braking? How does regenerative braking work? Regenerative braking is a fairly easy to understand concept, once one understands how motors work, and how generators work. Regenerative braking translates to energy savings, as it recovers kinetic energy. A motor can simply be reversed in order to generate electricity, acting as a generator to recharge a vehicle's battery pack. -- Related Videos -- Alternating Currents: http://youtu.be/Pv8WxPsJf4A KERS: http://youtu.be/QibB4DxkasQ Electric Cars: http://youtu.be/MWcmUgKP1GU -- Other Useful Videos -- Electric Motors: http://youtu.be/ErV5lGVso1w Magnets: http://youtu.be/7nhmJPMi4FU Electromagnets: http://youtu.be/1YSjRrijsRg DC Motors: http://youtu.be/kTk...
Regenerative braking is the recovery of kinetic energy during braking. In a conventional vehicle, a majority of the kinetic energy is converted during friction braking into heat and emitted unused into the environment. Hybrid and electric vehicles can use the electric motor to recuperate at least a portion of the kinetic energy for reuse. Regenerative braking enables an extended range in electric vehicles as well as lowering fuel consumption and improving CO2 balance in hybrid vehicles.

The main aim of this project is to design an energy regenerative system, occurs when the vehicle is in motion, such as coasting, traveling downhill or braking. And the accelerator pedal is not being depressed. During brake the motor becomes a generator and sends energy back to the batteries. The main components used in Regenerative Braking System Projects are motor, Tyre, belt, led’s, power supply and the mechanical modal for braking system. In this project the motor is used for rotating the Tyre which is powered by the power supply. The motor and led’s are connected to the braking system, when the brake is applied to the Tyre then motor connected to the braking system starts rotating for a few minutes before the wheel came to the stop condition. With the rotation of motor electricity is g...

Ken Shaw Toyota in Toronto presents: Know Your Toyota's Regenerative Braking
Regenerative braking is one of the key features of Formula E race cars, but what does it actually involve? MS Amlin Andretti driver, Antonio Felix Da Costa, guides presenter Marc Priestly through the key principles. Regenerative braking is an efficient way of recovering energy through the brakes of the car, but requires the driver and team to be very strategic in engineering this feature. The more regenerative braking a driver employs, the slower their lap time. Driving a Formula E race car requires a fine balance between braking and accelerating because the driver needs to conserve as much energy as possible early on in the race to conserve the car’s energy for when top speeds are most needed. Regenerative braking already plays a key role in the road electric vehicles of today, and deve...
