    Abstract

    In an era where energy conservation has become the latest topic of

    discussion not only among the erudite but also among the ordinary

    responsible denizens , fuel efficiency along with minimum

    pollution has become the benchmark for any new automobile.

    And in the same context Electromagnetic Reciprocating

    Engine come as the latest addition. By the name itself it can be

    inferred that a Electromagnetic Reciprocating Engine is an

    improvisation to the traditional gasoline engine run car combined

    with the power of an electric motor.

    The seminar on the above topic intends to bring to notice

    the concepts associated with the hybrid technology through the

    following topicscomponents , need , efficiency and performance

    etc.

    Overview

    Electromagnetic engine is a future generation engine , takes

    electric energy as power source .

    The engine is different from the ordinary engine in many ways.

    The energy efficiency is much higher than the ordinary enginebecause the heat and thermal loss are negligible .

    The advantages of the electromagnet is to act as pulling force that

    can be control by the current supply .

    The system is compact and the moving part is less than the

    ordinary engine ,thats reduce the wear and tear of the engine and

    deduct the maintenance cost and running cost .

    The History of the Electro-Magnetic Engine

    This is the story of rise and fall of the little known electro-magnetic

    engine. During the late 1700s and early 1800s many interesting and

    little understood electrical experiments were conducted both here

    and abroad that eventually led to the discovery of previously relied

    on a form of capacitance , for electrical energy. In 1820, Oersted

    discovered by accident that electricitythrough a wire woulddeflect

    the needle of a compass and concluded that some form of

    magnetism was present. In 1831, Faraday discovered the magnetic

    field and hence the effect of an electrified coil on steel and on a

    permanent magnet and vice versa. Faraday's experiments and

    discoveries led to many useful inventions, including the multipolar

    motor in 1838 by Jacobi, the telegraph in 1840 by Wheetstone and

    Morse, the dynamo in 1871 by Gramme, and the telephone in 1876

    by Bell to mention a few. But, in 1845, one industrious

    entrepreneur by the name of Bourbouze, wanted to capitalize on

    the electric coil 'solenoid effect' in a grand manner. He envisioned

    solenoid driven crank shaft engines powered by rooms full of

    batteries, as an alternative to the then current steam power. So, in a

    fashion similar to the later 'halfbreed,' Bourbouze removed the

    cylinder, piston and valve system from a steam engine and replaced

    them with a large electric coil, a plunger, a switch arrangement for

    timing. Well-yes, the engine worked, but there wasn't enough

    sulfuric acid and zinc available in quantity for the batteries to meet

    the need and to compete with the low cost, readily available coal

    for steam engines. So, like many other early ideas and inventions,

    the electro-magnetic engine was short lived. Later, the term

    electromagnetic engine was changed to electric motor.

    Coincidentally, the efficiency of the early steam engine and the

    electro-magnetic engine were about the same at 20-25%, as

    compared to the later well-developed D.C. motor at 95%, and the

    A.C. Motor at 89%

    Electromagnets:-

    Electromagnets are magnets whose magnetic properties come from

    or are generated through electricity. A magnet is a material (this is

    usually metal), which has at least one pair of negative and positive

    poles. These opposite poles' attraction produces a magnetic field.

    This gives the magnet the ability to 'attract' metals such as iron or

    steel. Electromagnets are soft magnets whose magnetic field can be

    strengthened or weakened depending on the electric current

    applied; the stronger the current, the stronger the magnetic field

    produced. Electromagnets are distinct from hard magnets

    (manufactured or naturally occurring). The magnetic field of hard

    magnets is quite permanent or long lasting and is therefore not

    dependent on electric current.

    STRUCTYRE AND DESIGN

    The passage of electric charge (electrons) from a battery's or power

    source's negative terminal through wires generates a weak

    magnetic field. This magnetic field is so weak (or so small) that it

    is generally undetected. However, a

    compass will detect such a magnetic field.

    To be useful, therefore, the magnetic fieldgenerated through the flow of electrons

    should be strengthened. This can be done

    by making a tight coil of conductive wire.

    The coils will reinforce and strengthen the

    magnetic field which has a direction or

    orientation that is perpendicular to the direction of the electric

    current.

    When electricity is supplied to this coiled wire, there will result

    various magnetic domains for each coil. These magnetic domains

    will tend to align themselves; and the stronger the electric current

    applied, the more the individual magnetic domains will be aligned.

    The application of an optimal level of electric current will result in

    a perfect alignment of all magnetic domainsand result in optimal

    magnetic strength.

    To make the electromagnet even more powerful, one can coil the

    wire around a material that has magnetic permeability or

  • 7/27/2019 SUBHARTI

    11/60

    11

    susceptibility (simply, a material that can be magnetized). The core

    material can be something that is capable of being temporarily

    magnetized such as paramagnets which are susceptible to

    magnetism but are unable to retain their magnetic properties after

    the application of the electric current stops. The core material can

    also be ferromagnets which are capable of retaining the magnetic

    field they have acquired even after electric current application

    cease

    Types of electromagnets

    Starter solenoid

    Solenoids are used to control the starter motor in virtually every

    automobile. When the solenoid is energized by turning the ignition

    key, a conductor is pulled against two terminals, and a large current

    flows from the battery to the starter motor. It also moves the drive

    pinion to connect the starter motor gear with the engine flywheel.

    When the ignition key is released, the spring pushes the conductor

    off the terminals and stops the starter motor, and also disengages

    the pinion gear.

    Troubleshooting solenoid

    If a solenoid fails to move back into place when the coil current

    stops flowing, the spring in the base may be broken. If a solenoid

    makes a continuous clicking sound, the current is insufficient to

    create a field strong enough to keep the the spring compressed.

    This may be caused by a short in the coil that is preventing current

    from flowing through all the coil turns.

    Linear solenoid

    Another type of electromagnetic actuator that converts an electrical

    signal into a magnetic field is called a Solenoid. The linear

    solenoid works on the same basic principal as the

    electromechanical relay (EMR) seen in the previous tutorial and

    like relays, they can also be controlled by transistors or MOSFET.

    A Linear Solenoid is an electromagnetic device that converts

    electrical energy into a mechanical pushing or pulling force or

    motion. Solenoids basically consist of an electrical coil wound

    around a cylindrical tube with a ferro-magnetic actuator or

    "plunger" that is free to move or slide "IN" and "OUT" of the coils

    body. Solenoids are available in a variety of formats with the more

    common types being the linear solenoidalso known as the linear

    electromechanical actuator (LEMA) and the rotary solenoidwith

    both types being available as either a holding (continuously

    energized) or a latching type (ON-OFF pulse) with the latching

    types being used in either energized or power-off applications.

    Linear solenoids can also be designed for proportional motion

    14

    control were the plunger position is proportional to the power

    input.

    When electrical current flows through a conductor it generates a

    magnetic field, and the direction of this magnetic field with regards

    to its North and South Poles is determined by the direction of the

    current flow within the wire. This coil of wire becomes an

    "Electromagnet" with its own north and south poles exactly the

    same as that for a permanent type magnet. The strength of this

    magnetic field can be increased or decreased by either controlling

    the amount of current flowing through the coil or by changing the

    number of turns or loops that the coil has. An example of an

    "Electromagnet" is given below

    Rotary solenoid

    Most electromagnetic solenoids are linear devices producing a

    linear back and forth force or motion. However, rotational

    solenoids are also available which produce an angular or rotary

    motion from a neutral position in either clockwise, anti-clockwise

    or in both directions (bi-directional).

  • 7/27/2019 SUBHARTI

    15/60

    15

    Rotary solenoids can be used to replace small DC motors or

    stepper motors were the angular movement is very small with the

    angle of rotation being the angle moved from the start to the end

    position. Commonly available rotary solenoids have movements of

    25, 35, 45, 60 and 90o

    as well as multiple movements to and from a

    certain angle such as a 2-position self restoring or return to zero

    rotation, for example 0-to-90-to-0o, 3-position self restoring, for

    example 0o

    to +45o

    or 0o

    to -45o

    as well as 2-position latching.

    Rotary solenoids produce a rotational movement when either

    energized, de-energized, or a change in the polarity of an

    electromagnetic field alters the position of a permanent magnet

    rotor. Their construction consists of an electrical coil woundaround a steel frame with a magnetic disk connected to an output

    shaft positioned above the coil. When the coil is energized the

    electromagnetic field generates multiple north and south poles

    which repel the adjacent permanent magnetic poles of the disk

    causing it to rotate at an angle determined by the mechanical

    construction of the rotary solenoid.

    control, camera shutter with special high speed, low power or

    variable positioning solenoids with high force or torque are

    available such as those used in dot matrix printers, typewriters,

    automatic machines or automotive applications etc.

    The main types of electromagnetic engines

    Single-loop electromagnetic engine

    Even simple motor, apparently not requiring any loop but a piece

    of the wire is shown on the photo

    Elements of the set:

    1. Neodymium magnet.

    2. Iron nail

    3. Volta pile R6 (1,5 V).

    4. Piece of wire (see photo 1)

    Understanding the principle of operation of the engine above, it is

    easy to explain the present one. This is just Newtons principle of

    action and interaction. Essentially, this is the piece of wire

    (forming the loop) which should spin around the magnet as in the

    previous case. But now the loop is hold fixed, so by the principle of

    reaction the magnet spins in the opposite direction, instead. Note

    that the engine moves with the highest speed when the wire

    touches the magnet in the middle of its heights: the magnetic flux

    closed by such a loop is maximum. When the wire touches the

    magnet below than the total flux is smaller and the turning around

    is slower.

    - electric current flowing in engine windings (loop - 3), placed in

    this

    field

    21/60

    21

    Principle of operation of two-loop engine

    Electromagnetic engines working is based on the principle of

    interaction between the magnetic field and the electric current. The

    permanent (and strong) neodymium magnet creates the magnetic

    field with a configuration shown on the fig. 1. In the region of the

    upper segment of the loop the field is almost vertical, and in the

    region of the lower segment it is directed in the opposite direction

    as compared to the upper part, and it is much weaker 5). The

    electrical current flows from the + pole of the battery and the

    circuit is closed by the magnet (there is no isolation on the wire

    wound around the magnet). The gap between the wire loop and the

    magnet causes some discontinuity in the current flow but it does

    not disturb the engine operation too much. The direction of theforce acting on every part of the wire is defined by the right hand

    rule (thumb indicates the current, the indice the magnetic field

    direction, the

    middle the force). Alternatively, one can also use the vector

    product F=qv x B. It turns out that the particular geometry of the

    loop assures that the magnetic filed is approximately perpendicular

    to all three single segments, assuring therefore the maximum force.

    As seen from the fig. 2. the force moments acting on the two

    wings of the loop do sum up. The engine turns around! In order

    to invert the direction of rotation one can invert the battery or the

    poles of the magnet. Principles to learn:

    Linear solenoid

    This type of solenoid is generally called a Linear Solenoid due to

    the linear directional movement of the plunger. Linear solenoids

    are available in two basic configurations called a "Pull-type" as it

    pulls the connected load towards itself when energized, and the

    "Push-type" that act in the opposite direction pushing it away from

    itself when energized. Both push and pull types are generally

    constructed the same with the difference being in the location ofthe return spring and design of the plunger.

    Magnetic field of a solenoid

    Inside

    This is a derivation of the magnetic field around a solenoid that is

    long enough so that fringe effects can be ignored. In the diagram to

    the right, we immediately know that the field points in the positive

    z direction inside the solenoid, and in the negative z direction

    outside the solenoid.

    A solenoid with 3 Amprian loops

    We see this by applying the right hand grip rule for the field around

    a wire. If we wrap our right hand around a wire with the thumb

    pointing in the direction of the current, the curl of the fingers

    shows how the field behaves. Since we are dealing with a long

    solenoid, all of the components of the magnetic field not pointing

    upwards cancel out by symmetry. Outside, a similar cancellation

    occurs, and the field is only pointing downwards.

    Now consider imaginary the loop c that is located inside the

    solenoid. By Amperes law, we know that the line integral of B

    (the magnetic field vector) around this loop is zero, since it

    encloses no electrical currents (it can be also assumed that the

    circuital electric field passing through the loop is constant undersuch conditions: a constant or constantly changing current through

    the solenoid). We have shown above that the field is pointing

    upwards inside the solenoid, so the horizontal portions of loop c

    doesn't contribute anything to the integral. Thus the integral of the

    up side 1 is equal to the integral of the down side 2. Since we can

    arbitrarily change the dimensions of the loop and get the same

    result, the only physical explanation is that the integrands are

    actually equal, that is, the magnetic field inside the solenoid is

    radially uniform. Note, though, that nothing prohibits it from

    varying longitudinally which in fact it does.

    Transformer

    A transformer transfers electrical energy between two circuits. It

    usually consists of two wire coils wrapped around a core. These

    coils are called primary and secondary windings. Energy is

    transferred by mutual induction caused by a changing

    electromagnetic field. If the coils have different number of turns

    around the core, the voltage induced in the secondary coil will be

    different to the first.

    HISTORY OF TRANSFORMERS

    Transformers are based on the theory of electromagnetic induction,

    which was discovered by Michael Faraday in 1831. It was not until

    1836 that the first device, an induction coil, was invented. William

    Stanley, who designed the first commercial model, introduced the

    term "transformer" in 1885.

    TYPES OF TRANSFORMERS

    The two major types of transformer are laminated cores and

    toroidals.

    Laminated cores are those common cube-shaped transformers,

    which are used in power adapters. They are stronger and cheaper

    than toroidals.

    Toroidals are smaller and lighter, for the same power rating. Theyalso produce less electrical noise and are more efficient. The

    secondary winding can be joined in series to double the voltage or

    joined in parallel for higher current.

    31

    HOW DOES A TRANSFORMER WORK

    Alternating current in the primary winding creates an

    electromagnetic field that induces a current in the secondary

    winding when the field changes. Small transformers use enameled

    wire for their windings, while large transformers use insulated

    copper strips. Transformers can be single winding, center-tap, or

    multi-tap. Center-taps have a terminal at the middle point of the

    secondary winding, which has half the voltage of the end terminal.

    Multi-taps have many terminals along the winding, whose voltages

    depend on their locations. The purpose of the core is to direct the

  • 7/27/2019 SUBHARTI

    32/60

    32

    electromagnetic field through the secondary winding. Silicon steel

    cores are used for their high magnetic permeability. The insulated

    laminations work better than solid cores, by confining eddy

    currents, which reduces their losses.

    USES OF TRANSFORMERS

    Transformers are mainly used to convert one voltage to another.The process of increasing the voltage is called "stepping up", while

    decreasing the voltage is called "stepping down". Most electronic

    equipments need a transformer to lower the mains voltage to a

    usable level. Transformers are also found in power adapters and

    battery chargers. Inverters are transformers which step-up a low

    voltage to a higher voltage, allowing a mains powered equipment

    to run on a battery. Additional circuitry is required to change the

    battery's direct current into alternating current. Transformers are

    used for electricity distribution to minimize energy loss over long

    distances. Higher voltages allow for lower currents, which reduces

    the losses caused by resistance.

    POWER SUPPLY

    In alternating current the electron flow is alternate, i.e. the electron

    flow increases to maximum in one direction, decreases back to

    zero. It then increases in the other direction and then decreases to

    zero again. Direct current flows in one direction only. Rectifier

    converts alternating current to flow in one direction only. When the

    anode of the diode is positive with respect to its cathode, it is

    forward biased, allowing current to flow. But when its anode is

    negative with respect to the cathode, it is reverse biased and does

    not allow current to flow. This unidirectional property of the diode

    is useful for rectification. A single diode arranged back-to-back

    might allow the electrons to flow during positive half cycles only

    and suppress the negative half cycles. Double diodes arranged

    back-to-back might act as full wave rectifiers as they may allow the

    electron flow during both positive and negative half cycles. Four

    diodes can be arranged to make a full wave bridge rectifier.

    Different types of filter circuits are used to smooth out the

    pulsations in amplitude of the output voltage from a rectifier. The

    property of capacitor to oppose any change in the voltage applied

    across them by storing energy in the electric field of the capacitor

    and of inductors to oppose any change in the current flowing

    through them by storing energy in the magnetic field of coil may

    34/60

    34

    be utilized. To remove pulsation of the direct current obtained from

    the rectifier, different types of combination of capacitor, inductors

    and resistors may be also be used to increase to action of filtering.

    NEED OF POWER SUPPLY

    Perhaps all of you are aware that a power supply is a primary

    requirement for the Test Bench of a home experimenters mini

    lab. A battery eliminator can eliminate or replace the batteries of

    solid-state electronic equipment and the equipment thus can be

    operated by 230v A.C. mains instead of the batteries or dry cells.

    Nowadays, the use of commercial battery eliminator or power

    supply unit has become increasingly popular as power source for

  • 7/27/2019 SUBHARTI

    35/60

    35

    household appliances like transreceivers, record player, cassette

    players, digital clock etc.

    Use of diodes in rectifiers

    Electric energy is available in homes and industries in India,

    in the form of alternating voltage. The supply has a voltage of

    220V (rms) at a frequency of 50 Hz. In the USA, it is 110V at 60

    Hz. For the operation of most of the devices in electronic

    equipment, a dc voltage is needed. For instance, a transistor radio

    requires a dc supply for its operation. Usually, this supply is

    provided by dry cells. But sometime we use a battery eliminator in

    place of dry cells. The battery eliminator converts the ac voltage

    into dc voltage and thus eliminates the need for dry cells.

    Nowadays, almost all-electronic equipment includes a circuit that

    converts ac voltage of mains supply into dc voltage. This part of

    the equipment is called Power Supply. In general, at the input of

    the power supply, there is a power transformer. It is followed by adiode circuit called Rectifier. The output of the rectifier goes to a

    smoothing filter, and then to a voltage regulator circuit. The

    rectifier circuit is the heart of a power supply.

    36

    Rectification

    Rectification is a process of rendering an alternating current

    or voltage into a unidirectional one. The component used for

    rectification is called Rectifier. A rectifier permits current to flow

    only during the positive half cycles of the applied AC voltage by

    eliminating the negative half cycles or alternations of the applied

    AC voltage. Thus pulsating DC is obtained. To obtain smooth DC

    power, additional filter circuits are required.

    A diode can be used as rectifier. There are various types of

    diodes. But, semiconductor diodes are very popularly used as

    rectifiers. A semiconductor diode is a solid-state device consistingof two elements is being an electron emitter or cathode, the other

    an electron collector or anode. Since electrons in a semiconductor

    diode can flow in one direction only-from emitter to collector- the

    diode provides the unilateral conduction necessary for rectification.

    Out of the semiconductor diodes, copper oxide and selenium

    rectifier are also commonly used.

  • 7/27/2019 SUBHARTI

    37/60

    37

    Rectification

    It is possible to rectify both alternations of the input voltage

    by using two diodes in the circuit arrangement. Assume 6.3 V rms

    (18 V p-p) is applied to the circuit. Assume further that two equal-

    valued series-connected resistors R are placed in parallel with the

    ac source. The 18 V p-p appears across the two resistors connected

    between points AC and CB, and point C is the electrical midpoint

    between A and B. Hence 9 V p-p appears across each resistor. At

    any moment during a cycle of vin, if point A is positive relative to

    C, point B is negative relative to C. When A is negative to C, point

    B is positive relative

    to C. The effective voltage in proper time phase which each diode

    "sees" is in Fig. The voltage applied to the anode of each diode is

    equal but opposite in polarity at any given instant.

    When A is positive relative to C, the anode of D1 is positive

    with respect to its cathode. Hence D1 will conduct but D2 will not.

    During the second alternation, B is positive relative to C. The

    anode of D2 is therefore positive with respect to its cathode, and

    D2 conducts while D1 is cut off.

  • 7/27/2019 SUBHARTI

    38/60

    38

    There is conduction then by either D1 or D2 during the entire

    input-voltage cycle.

    Since the two diodes have a common-cathode load resistor

    RL, the output voltage across RL will result from the alternate

    conduction of D1 and D2. The output waveform vout across RL,

    therefore has no gaps as in the case of the half-wave rectifier.

    The output of a full-wave rectifier is also pulsating direct

    current. In the diagram, the two equal resistors R across the input

    voltage are necessary to provide a voltage midpoint C for circuit

    connection and zero reference. Note that the load resistor RL is

    connected from the cathodes to this center reference point C.

    An interesting fact about the output waveform vout is that its peak

    amplitude is not 9 V as in the case of the half-wave rectifier using

    the same power source, but is less than 4 V. The reason, of

    course, is that the peak positive voltage of A relative to C is 4 V,

    not 9 V, and part of the 4 V is lost across R.

    Though the full wave rectifier fills in the conduction gaps, it

    delivers less than half the peak output voltage that results from

    half-wave rectification.

  • 7/27/2019 SUBHARTI

    39/60

    39

    Bridge Rectifier

    A more widely used full-wave rectifier circuit is the bridge

    rectifier. It requires four diodes instead of two, but avoids the need

    for a centre-tapped transformer. During the positive half-cycle of

    the secondary voltage, diodes D2 and D4 are conducting and

    diodes D1 and D3 are non-conducting. Therefore, current flows

    through the secondary winding, diode D2, load resistor RL and

    diode D4. During negative half-cycles of the secondary voltage,

    diodes D1 and D3 conduct, and the diodes D2 and D4 do not

    conduct. The current therefore flows through the secondary

    winding, diode D1, load resistor RL and diode D3. In both cases,

    the current passes through the load resistor in the same direction.

    Therefore, a fluctuating, unidirectional voltage is developed across

    the load.

    Filtration

    The rectifier circuits we have discussed above deliver an

    output voltage that always has the same polarity: but however, this

    output is not suitable as DC power supply for solid-state circuits.

    This is due to the pulsation or ripples of the output voltage. This

    should be removed out before the output voltage can be supplied to

    any circuit. This smoothing is done by incorporating filter

  • 7/27/2019 SUBHARTI

    40/60

    40

    networks. The filter network consists of inductors and capacitors.

    The inductors or choke coils are generally connected in series with

    the rectifier output and the load. The inductors oppose any change

    in the magnitude of a current flowing through them by storing up

    energy in a magnetic field. An inductor offers very low resistance

    for DC whereas; it offers very high resistance to AC. Thus, a series

    connected choke coil in a rectifier circuit helps to reduce the

    pulsations or ripples to a great extent in the output voltage. The

    fitter capacitors are usually connected in parallel with the rectifier

    output and the load. As, AC can pass through a capacitor but DC

    cannot, the ripples are thus limited and the output becomes

    smoothed. When the voltage across its plates tends to rise, it stores

    up energy back into voltage and current. Thus, the fluctuations in

    the output voltage are reduced considerable. Filter network circuitsmay be of two types in general:

    Diode

    A diode is a solid state device that allows current to flow in only

    one direction, a process known as rectification. Diodes are a

    fundamental component of electrical circuits. They are also used to

    form other components, such as the bipolar transistor, which uses

    two diodes in series.

    GUTHRIE, and later rediscover by THOMAS EDISON, while

    crystal rectifiers were discovered in 1874 by KARL BRAUN it

    was not until 1919 that rectifiers were renamed diodes by

    WILLIAM ECCLES, although power diodes are still called

    rectifiers today.

    MECHANICAL PARTS

    Flywheel

    A flywheel is a rotating mechanical device that is used to

    storerotational energy. Flywheels have a significantmoment of

    inertia, and thus resist changes in rotational speed. The amount of

    energy stored in a flywheel is proportional to the square of

    itsrotational speed. Energy is transferred to a flywheel by

    applyingtorqueto it, thereby increasing its rotational speed, and

    hence its stored energy. Conversely, a flywheel releases stored

    energy by applying torque to a mechanical load, thereby decreasing

    its rotational speed.

    Three common uses of a flywheel include:

    They provide continuous energy when the energy source isdiscontinuous. For example, flywheels are used

    inreciprocating enginesbecause the energy source, torque

    from the engine, is intermittent.

    They deliver energy at rates beyond the ability of a continuousenergy source. This is achieved by collecting energy in the

    flywheel over time and then releasing the energy quickly, at

    rates that exceed the abilities of the energy source.

    They control the orientation of a mechanical system. In suchapplications, the angular momentum of a flywheel is purposely

    transferred to a load when energy is transferred to or from the

    flywheel.

    TYPICAL FLYWHEEL STRUCTURES.

    Flywheels are often used to provide continuous energy in systems

    where the energy source is not continuous. In such cases, the

    flywheel stores energy when torque is applied by the energy

    source, and it releases stored energy when the energy source is not

    applying torque to it. For example, a flywheel is used to maintain

    constant angular velocity of thecrankshaftin a reciprocating

    engine. In this case, the flywheelwhich is mounted on the

    crankshaftstores energy when torque is exerted on it by a

    firingpiston, and it releases energy to its mechanical loads when

    no piston is exerting torque on it. Other examples of this

    arefriction motors, which use flywheel energy to power devices

    such astoy cars.

    A flywheel may also be used to supply intermittent pulses of

    energy at transfer rates that exceed the abilities of its energy

    source, or when such pulses would disrupt the energy supply (e.g.,

    public electric network). This is achieved by accumulating stored

    energy in the flywheel over a period of time, at a rate that is

    compatible with the energy source, and then releasing that energy

    at a much higher rate over a relatively short time. For example,

    flywheels are used inpunchingmachines andrivetingmachines,

    where they store energy from the motor and release it during the

    punching or riveting operation.

    The phenomenon ofprecessionhas to be considered when using

    flywheels in vehicles. A rotating flywheel responds to any

    momentum that tends to change the direction of its axis of rotation

    by a resulting precession rotation. A vehicle with a vertical-axis

    flywheel would experience a lateral momentum when passing the

    top of a hill or the bottom of a valley (rollmomentum in response

    to a pitch change). Two counter-rotating flywheels may be needed

    to eliminate this effect. This effect is leveraged inmomentum

    wheels, a type of flywheel employed in satellites in which the

    flywheel is used to orient the satellite's instruments without thruster

    rockets.

    Crankshaft

    The crankshaft, sometimes casually abbreviated to crank, is the

    part of an engine that translates reciprocating linear piston

    motion into rotation. To convert the reciprocating motion into

    rotation, the crankshaft has "crank throws" or "crankpins",

    additional bearing surfaces whose axis is offset from that of the

    crank, to which the "big ends" of the connecting rods from each

    cylinder attach.

    It typically connects to a flywheel, to reduce the pulsation

    characteristic of the four-stroke cycle, and sometimes a torsional

    or vibrational damper at the opposite end, to reduce the torsional

    vibrationsoften caused along the length of the crankshaft by the

    Bearing

    Have you ever wondered how things like inline skate wheels and

    electric motors spin so smoothly and quietly? The answer can befound in a neat little machine called a bearing.

    A tapered roller bearing from a manual transmission

    The bearing makes many of the machines we use every day

    possible. Without bearings, we would be constantly replacing parts

    that wore out from friction. In this article, we'll learn how bearings

    work, look at some different kinds of bearings and explain their

    common uses, and explore some other interesting uses of bearings.

  • 7/27/2019 SUBHARTI

    50/60

    50

    The concept behind a bearing is very simple: Things roll better

    than they slide. The wheels on your car are like big bearings. If you

    had something like skis instead of wheels, your car would be a lot

    more difficult to push down the road.

    That is because when things slide, the friction between them causes

    a force that tends to slow them down. But if the two surfaces can

    roll over each other, the friction is greatly reduced.

    Bearings reduce friction by providing smooth metal balls or

    rollers, and a smooth inner and outer metal surface for the balls to

    roll against. These balls or rollers "bear" the load, allowing the

    device to spin smoothly.

    Bearing Loads

    Bearings typically have to deal with two kinds of loading, radial

    and thrust. Depending on where the bearing is being used, it may

    see all radial loading, all thrust loading or a combination of both.

    The bearings that support the shafts of motors and pulleys are

    subject to a radial load.

    The bearings in the electric motor and the pulley pictured above

    face only a radial load. In this case, most of the load comes from

    the tension in the belt connecting the two pulleys.

    The bearing above is like the one in a barstool. It is loaded purely

    in thrust, and the entire load comes from the weight of the personsitting on the stool.

    Types of Bearings

    There are many types of bearings, each used for different purposes.

    These include ball bearings, roller bearings, ball thrust bearings,

    roller thrust bearings and tapered roller thrust bearings.

    Ball bearing

    Ball bearings, as shown below, are probably the most common

    type of bearing. They are found in everything from inline skates tohard drives. These bearings can handle both radial and thrust loads,

    and is usually found in applications where the load is relatively

    small.

    In a ball bearing, the load is transmitted from the outer race to the

    ball, and from the ball to the inner race. Since the ball is a sphere, itonly contacts the inner and outer race at a very small point, which

    helps it spin very smoothly. But it also means that there is not very

    much contact area holding that load, so if the bearing is

    overloaded, the balls can deform or squish, ruining the bearing.

    works as a converter which converts the ac current in to dc current

    .solenoid which is used in this engine are dc solenoid. When

    current is passed in to the solenoid, magnetic field produced within

    solenoid .Iron core moved within the coil. Which is reciprocating

    in nature .the core is attached to the crank shaft through the

    connecting rod. The work of crank shaft to convert the

    reciprocating motion in to rotational motion. A system is attached

    to the crank shaft which makes the close circuit of all the four

    solenoid at right time. It works like a camshaft .when current is

    goes to the first solenoid ,solenoid magnetize. Pulling force act on

    the core. When circuit is break to the first solenoid, at that time

    solenoid 4th circuit is closed and it magnetized. And after that

    solenoid third is magnetized and than 2nd

    solenoid .one revolution

    is completed after the full operation. This process is repeated again

    and again.

    Engine performance

    When specifying what type of engine is needed, the mechanical

    power available at the shaft is used. This means that users can

    predict the torque and speed of the engine without having to know

    the mechanical losses associated with the engine.

    power

    The power output of a engine is:

    Where P is in horsepower, rpm is the shaft speed in revolutions per

    minute and T is the torque in foot pounds.

    And for a linear motor:

    Where P is the power in watts, and F is in Newtons and v is the

    speed in metres per second.

    Eficiency

    To calculate a engine efficiency, the mechanical output power is

    divided by the electrical input power: , where is energy

    conversion efficiency, is electrical input power, and is

    mechanical output power.

    In simplest case , and , where is input voltage,

    is input current, is output torque, and is output angular

    velocity. It is possible to derive analytically the point of maximum

    efficiency. It is typically at less than 1/2 thestall torque.

    Applications

    Electromechanical solenoid

    A 1920 explanation of a commercial solenoid used as an

    electromechanical actuator

    Electromechanical solenoids consist of an electromagnetically

    inductive coil, wound around a movable steel oriron slug (termed

    the armature). The coil is shaped such that the armature can bemoved in and out of the center, altering the coil's inductance and

    thereby becoming an electromagnet. The armature is used to

    provide a mechanical force to some mechanism (such as

    controlling a pneumatic valve). Although typically weak over

    anything but very short distances, solenoids may be controlled

    directly by a controller circuit, and thus have very low reaction

    times.

    The force applied to the armature is proportional to the change in

    inductance of the coil with respect to the change in position of the

    armature, and the current flowing through the coil (see Faraday's

    law of induction). The force applied to the armature will always

    move the armature in a direction that increases the coil's

    inductance.

    Electromechanical solenoids are commonly seen in electronic

    paintball markers,pinball machines, dot matrix printers and fuel

    injectors. A most common application is used in automobile.

    Maintenance

    The maintenance of electromagnet is very important because

    magnetic field which is produced with in the coil decreases after a

    long time period due to losses (iron losses, eddy current losses)

    generated in the coil. Proper lubrication is used in the moving parts

    like crank shaft ,connecting rod joints ,bearings etc.

    Fail-safe measure

    Electromagnetic coil which is used in electromagnetic engine have

    fail-safe measure .the current used for running the engine have

    constant frequency .fluctuation in current causes damage of coil.

    To reduce these problem measuring instrument are used. To

    measure the voltage, voltmeter is used and for current ampere

    meter is used. Design of crankshaft, connecting rod and bearing

    according their load bearing capability. Types of lubricant which is

    used in moving part should be design .because friction is an

    important factor causes damage of moving part due to wear and

    tear and thrust which is generated in moving part. Testing machine

    are used for measurement the strength of the component.

    Inspection of the component should be done weekly and monthly

    to reduced the failure problem.

    FUTURE SCOPE

    Being a electric engine it has may futuristic benefits like it is fully

    pollution free engine, no carbon foot print. In present polluted

    world as governments are struggling hard to cope with pollution

    our engine has great significance

    As carbon fuel is decreasing day by on earth petrol and diesel fuel

    is costly and decreasing the availably is also hard issue, to

    overcome this problem our proposed engine has great significance

    for fuel consumption as its is ruing of battery.

    Conclusion

    Though at present the concept has been put in the reva car, it is

    indeed an important research avenue for other car manufacturing

    units as well. One can surely conclude that this concept, and the

    similar ones to follow with even better efficiency & conservation

    rate are very much on the anvil in todays energy deficit world.

    Currently the cost of the engine is more than that

    the conventional engine. Electromagnetic engine is growing in

    popularity and it is likely to come in more and more new vehicles.

    As the systems become more commonplace the cost of the vehicles

    will drop.
