ABSTRACT
The paper describes possibility to recover a part of pallet’s kinetic energy during storage on flow rack. In order to develop the solution there was necessity to form assumptions, create a computational model and analyse energy transformations during the storage process. Proposed solution based on the results of the model and analysis is able to recover energy from flow rack and transform it to a usable form. The paper analyses an appropriate localization for the energy recovery system, describes its efficiency and defines its cost effectiveness.
