ELECTROMAGNETIC CAR
INTRODUCTION:
Electromagnetic energy is a limitless source of power that is used in many industries across
the United States. This technology runs several key instruments in modern automobiles, from
electrical features, to whole ignition systems and engines. For countries looking for energy
independence, electromagnetic propulsion systems in automobiles provide an alternative to
fossil fuels by simply plugging the vehicle into an outlet at the end of the day. In this project
we are designing an electromagnetic car, which will use electromagnetic piston engine.
Electric cars are the future. They have several potential benefits when compared to
conventional internal combustion automobiles.
The Electric Engine
An electric motor is built on coils of wire which are driven through the magnetic force
created by electromagnets. Electrical force is converted into mechanical energy by the
electromagnets which turn wheels and generate speed. Modern hybrid electric vehicles
maintain this magnetic field through "regenerative braking" which allows resistance (friction)
created through wheel motion to reclaim the spent electrical forces needed to propel the
vehicle along the road.
WORKING PRINCIPLE:
The electromagnetic piston engine according to the present invention in one aspect comprises
a cylinder and a piston, each made of a magnetic material, a cylinder electromagnet having an
inner wall of the cylinder magnetisable to a one magnetic pole, and a piston magnetization
unit for magnetizing a portion of the piston engage able with the cylinder to a single magnetic
pole in a fixed manner, in which the piston is transferred in a one direction by creating a
magnetic attraction force between the cylinder and the piston by exciting the cylinder
electromagnet; and the piston is then transferred in the opposite direction by creating a
magnetic repellent force there between, followed by repeating this series of the actions of
alternately creating the magnetic attraction force and the magnetic repellent force to allow the
piston to perform a reciprocal movement.
The electromagnetic piston engine according to the present invention in a still further aspect
is constructed by arranging a combination of the cylinder with the piston in -the aspects
described above as a one assembly, arranging the one assembly in plural numbers and
operating the plural assemblies in a parallel way, and converting a reciprocal movement of
the piston in each of the plural assemblies into a rotary movement of a single crank shaft by a
crank mechanism so that more can be produce for propelling any heavy vehicle.
VEHICLE HARDWARE:
Several components found under the hood of an automobile are powered by electromagnets.
A solenoid is a coil of wire that uses an electromagnet to create linear motion to bring
mechanical pieces into line and close a circuit. This component is integral to the ignition
process of modern automobiles. Other car parts, such as audio speakers, use electromagnets
surrounded by a permanent magnet to create electrical impulses from sound waves.
Magnets as Workers
Magnetic components have an advantage over non-magnetic equipment designed to perform
similar functions, in that magnetic components require no contact with the object in order to
work. They produce a force and continue to function through walls, pipes and conveyor belts,
among others. This simple fact makes the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine, a
medical breakthrough in diagnosing damage to the human body, possible.
Life of the Magnet
Electromagnets also have constant strength over their lifetime, and have a much longer
lifespan than non-magnetic equipment. Magnetic machine systems, for example, lose 0.5 %
of their strength for every 100 years of operating life in ideal conditions. Electromagnets may
also withstand operational temperatures of up to 600 degrees Centigrade without losing
power or functionality.
Controllable Power
Power is able to be controlled in a much more deft way than with other magnets, in that an
electromagnet is not just a simple "on and off" piece of equipment, but has a greater breadth
of strength. An electromagnet may also be "turned off," whereas other magnetic machines are
simply "on" all the time.
ELECTROMAGNETS:
An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by the flow
of electric current. The magnetic field disappears when the current is turned off.
Electromagnets are widely used as components of other electrical devices, such
as motors, generators, relays, loudspeakers, hard disks, MRI machines, scientific instruments,
and magnetic separation equipment, as well as being employed as industrial lifting
electromagnets for picking up and moving heavy iron objects like scrap iron.

The strength of magnetic field generated is proportional to the amount of current.
Current (I) through a wire produces a magnetic field (B). The field is oriented according to
the right-hand rule.
An electric current flowing in a wire creates a magnetic field around the wire (see drawing
below). To concentrate the magnetic field, in an electromagnet the wire is wound into
a coil with many turns of wire lying side by side. The magnetic field of all the turns of wire
passes through the center of the coil, creating a strong magnetic field there. A coil forming
the shape of a straight tube (a helix) is called a solenoid; a solenoid that is bent into a donut
shape so that the ends meet is called a toroid. Much stronger magnetic fields can be produced
if a "core" of ferromagnetic material, such as soft iron, is placed inside the coil. The
ferromagnetic core increases the magnetic field to thousands of times the strength of the field
of the coil alone, due to the high magnetic permeability of the ferromagnetic material. This
is called a ferromagnetic-core or iron-core electromagnet.

through the center of the coil. The crosses are wires in which current is moving into the page;
the dots are wires in which current is moving up out of the page.
ADVANTAGES OF ELECTROMAGNETS:
The electromagnet has led to inventions and breakthroughs in energy and medicine that are
far-reaching and far from fully realized. Its power is limited only by the human imagination,
with implications as a renewable source of power for vehicle propulsion and imaging
technology. How we use this technology going forward may be the key to energy
independence and perhaps longer life.
