Flywheel

Flywheel
Located at the gearbox end of the crankshaft, the flywheel helps to balance out the up-and-down action of the pistons and ensure the smooth running of the engine. The transmission system is also connected at the flywheel.

Essentially, the flywheel is a spinning wheel attached to a motor, and serves as a mechanical battery for storing kinetic energy.
