Electromagnets generate over 90% of the world’s electricity, but there’s a
misconception about free energy. Natural resources like coal, gasoline, and oil are being used more, necessitating the need for renewable energy sources. Modern technology relies on energy for all aspects of life, but without these resources, it’s impossible to provide energy for all. Alternative energy sources are needed to maintain living standards and meet the growing demand for renewable energy. Background of the study A device that transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy to carry out work is an electric motor. Three concepts govern how an electric motor works: an electrical current creates a magnetic field; the direction of an electromagnet’s current dictates where the poles are located; and magnetic poles either attract or repel one another. (Woodruff) In essence, an electric motor is basically a tightly wound copper wire coil rotating freely around an iron core inside a strong permanent magnet. When electricity is applied to the copper coil, it transforms into an electromagnet (a temporary magnet powered by electricity) and produces a magnetic field all around it. This magnetic field pushes against the magnetic field produced by the permanent magnet and causes the coil to rotate. (Lingas et. Al., 2015) Electric motors come in two different varieties. The motors that run on both direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC). Induction motors are the most used kind of alternating current (AC) motor. The induction motor’s rotor is made up of a cylindrical iron core with slots along the length of it. Copper bars are attached to a thick copper ring at each end by fitting them into slots. The connection between the rotor and the external power source is inert. A revolving magnetic field is created as a result of the alternating current flowing across the stator’s field coils. This field causes an electric current to flow through the rotor, producing a magnetic field. This field produces an electric in the rotor that interacts with the stator’s magnetic field to turn the rotor. This project study needed a motor with special capabilities. (Robert O. Fehr) Statement of the problem
Due to its difficult geographic location and severe infrastructure issues,
Talim Island experiences substantial power supply constraints that make it difficult for its citizens and businesses to get stable electricity. The issue at hand is how to create, develop, and put into use a self-powered DC power supply system that is suited to the unique requirements and limitations of Talim Island.
