Electric Motor Water Dam Idea?

Electric motor water dam idea?

It would not work to well, because at most you only have water moving through the pipe at most for one hour a day. That really would not produce that much electricity

Single phase electric motor problem?

examine if the centrifugal swap and starting up capacitor are operating all top. If no longer examine the motor operating modern. it will be overloaded nd you will favor a better motor, say, 5Hp.

Electric motor - Wikipedia

Electrically, a motor consists of two components which move relative to each other and which together form a magnetic circuit: • Field magnets - This part creates a magnetic field which passes through the armature. It is usually a set of electromagnets surrounding the rotor, consisting of wire windings on a ferromagnetic iron core which guides the magnetic field. Alternatively it can be one or more permanent magnets. • Armature - This is the part through which the electric current flows which develops the force. Like field coils, it consists of wire windings on a ferromagnetic core. When electric current passes through the wire the magnetic field from the field magnet exerts a force on it, called the Lorentz force, turning the rotor.

I need help with building an electric car?

The one EV car I currently have (have 2 vehicles that run on hydrogen also) I converted from a vw bug and is free to charge. As I live completely off the grid all my electricity comes from solar panels and 2 wind generators, which I also built. However I did charge up at Costco in Carlsbad California (I actually only drove up there to fill up) if I remember right it was around $2.00 Not sure if you are interesting in doing it yourself, but I would be willing to walk you step by step threw the conversion. I've converted 3 of my own cars (a datsun truck, ford ban, and a vw bug) and a few for neighbors. I've also converted cars to run on hydrogen, ethanol and biodiesel, by far EV is the easiest. If you are interested here's what it would entitle… - The engine compartment is first cleaned out of any gasoline components. - Electric components are then installed in exchange. - A battery bank is built and incorporated. - Existing starter and driving systems are connected. - Turn the key, step on the gas pedal sending more energy to the electric motor, & thus more power to the drive system, which in return creates more speed, more acceleration. - The system has normal automotive top speeds and acceleration, typical to the vehicle your modifying. If your top speed was 85 mph and your acceleration was 1 mile per min, then this will be what your left with after the conversion. The methods are extremely simple, making the process possible for anyone, everyone, ANYWHERE. Typical tools, hardware & supplies are used, making access to parts available for all. Electric Conversions can be easily accomplished in ANY model vehicle, even tractors, Generators, types of machinery, etc. Project lengths range from 1 day to 1 month. If you are interested I wrote a guide on it which is available at www agua-luna com My last EV conversion ran me about $1400. Everything is available online. I have a how to do it yourself guide available at www agua-luna com that will walk you step by step through the process. Here's a list of what you would need. Advanced DC Motor The motor is an 8" Advanced DC series-wound motor. It weighs 107 pounds and is rated at 68 peak horsepower. These motors are available in several sizes. Adaptor plate The adaptor plate mates the motor to the transmission. It is constructed of 1/2 inch aluminum and is pre-drilled with bolt hole patterns for both the motor and transmission. An aluminum spacer is also used for proper spacing between the shafts of the transmission and motor. Adaptor plates are available for many cars. DC Motor Controller The controller regulates current going to the motor. It is a solid-state device that uses a pulse width modulator (PWM) that sends short bursts of current to the motor at a rate of 15 kHz. Controllers are available from both Curtis and DCP. Potbox (Potentiometer) The potbox is a 5K ohm throttle between the controller and the accelerator, similar to the way a sewing machine pedal works. The potbox's lever arm is attached to the existing accelerator cable. Main Contactor An electric relay that serves the same purpose as the ignition switch in a gas car. When the key is turned to the start position, the contactor closes the circuit to allow current to flow to the controller. Circuit Breaker A safety device that shuts down power for servicing or during an emergency. The circuit breaker is installed under the hood and can be switched both off and on from the drivers seat with an extension or cable. Main Fuse The main fuse protect the system from high voltage spikes. A fuse should be installed at each battery box or group of batteries. Shunt A shunt is placed in series within the wiring as a means to connect meters. Shunts are available in different sizes for both high and low power configurations. Charger interlock A relay that keeps the circuit open so nobody will inadvertantly drive off with the charge cord plugged into the car. DC/DC Converter The DC/DC converter is similar in function to a gas car's alternator. It charges the 12 volt accessory battery by chopping voltage from the main battery pack down to 13.5 volts. I've written several how-to DIY guides available at www agua-luna com on the subject. I also offer online and on-site workshops, seminars and internships to help others help the environment.
