Unlike other hybrid energy systems that focus on energy management itself, our control scheme prioritizes the actual operational performance of the motor. In the absence of control action in an open-loop system, the fluctuation in the charging and discharging rates of the supercapacitor is determined by its inherent characteristics.
It is concluded that the F1 motor achieves its high mechanical torque and almost 100% efficiency because it converts the free energy of ATP binding into elastic strain, which is then released by a coordinated kinetic and tightly coupled conformational mechanism to create a rotary torque.
