Abstract: IC engines are widely used in vehicles and power generation, but they have several drawbacks. IC engines convert only about 25-30% of the chemical energy in fuel into mechanical energy. The rest of the energy is lost as heat, which can reduce fuel efficiency and increase emissions. IC engines produce a variety of harmful emissions, including carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter. These emissions can contribute to air pollution and climate change. IC engines can be noisy and produce vibrations, which can be uncomfortable for passengers and can also damage other components in the vehicle. These drawbacks of IC engines have led to a growing demand for alternative propulsion technologies, such as electric vehicles and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
This project aims to develop and build an electromagnetic engine conversion kit that can be used to convert a conventional internal combustion (IC) engine to an electromagnetic engine with minimal replacement parts. Electromagnetic engines use the principles of magnetic repulsion and attraction to generate rotational motion. They offer several advantages over traditional IC engines. Electromagnetic engines are more efficient than IC engines, meaning that they can convert more of the input energy into mechanical energy. This results in better fuel economy and reduced emissions. Electromagnetic engines do not produce any harmful emissions, making them a more environmentally friendly option than IC engines.
The proposed electromagnetic engine conversion kit will be designed to be compatible with a wide range of IC engines. It will consist of a set of copper coils, magnets and a controller. The coils will be mounted on the custom-made engine block and will be used to create a magnetic field. The controller will be used to regulate the current to the coils and to synchronize the magnetic field with the movement of the engine pistons.
The conversion kit is expected to be relatively easy to install and will not require any major modifications to the existing engine. Once installed, the conversion kit will allow the engine to operate in the same way as a traditional IC engine, but with the improved efficiency, cleanliness, and reliability of an electromagnetic engine. This project has the potential to make a significant contribution to the development of more sustainable and environmentally friendly transportation technologies.
