Electric power transmission

Trains are one of the oldest and essential source of transportation. One big machine produces massive power to pull the mass 8 or 10 times of its mass on steel tracks and transports it to thousands of mile between the cities. Steam engines power the trains in its initial stages. Now, Diesel Engines and Electric power trains are used. There are four forces acts on a train. One of them is its weight which balanced by the typical reaction of the tracks. The third one is the thrust force produced by…

logical that fewer and fewer people would have the skills needed to operate older, ‘outdated’ models. This includes stickshifts. Very few Americans have the ability to drive a manual transmission. It is not terribly difficult to learn, and the benefits are worth the occasional stalls. The driver of a manual transmission car is able to get much better gas mileage, as well as increased control of the vehicle. The likelihood of driving distracted is reduced, as both hands and feet need to be…

and a hybrid powertrain into one amazing vehicle. The roomy interior is sure to be appreciated by all who take a ride in the vehicle, and the driver will love the elevated seating, which provides them with a better view of the road. The gas engine/electric motor combination provides 139 horsepower, and fuel economy comes in at 52 mpg in the city. Standard features on this model include Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and Kia has opted to include safety features such as adaptive cruise,…

Aim The aim of this assignment is to investigate the method to correct the power factor within an AC power generation system. Once the power factor is found we shall improve the power factor in said theoretical circuit by modifying the existing one and calculating the differences this makes to the output across the circuit as a whole. Then we shall use a circuit design software package to confirm our theoretical results and identify whether our improved mathematical skills have solved the task…

Tesla Motors, is an American car manufacturer based in California. They produce futuristic electric cars, energy storage systems and solar panels. The company was founded in 2003 by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning. They have become widely known for their production of the world’s first fully automated, electric sports car called the Tesla Roadster, in 2008 (see Figure 1). Although Tesla cars are fully electric, and do not leave a carbon footprint while driving, they are technically not…

Guide to Buying Mobility Scooters A mobility scooter helps to extend the autonomy and independence of people with physical limitations in their day to day. This device has wheels driven with an electric motor and a comfortable seat both attached to an elegant chassis. All this makes it easy for people with reduced mobility to move from place to place. Mobility scooters incorporate a number of features so they can be adapted to different user needs. While the variety of options is good for…

essentially have two force sources. One is an inner ignition motor that smolders fuel with a specific end goal to control the vehicle. The other is a battery that could store electric energy to run an electric engine that could control the vehicles. The greatest point of interest with half breed autos is that they can produce power with the dynamic vitality it will generally squander amid applying brakes and when the vehicle is going downhill. In spite of the fact that an ordinary car will…

Hydra-Matic 6L80 six-speed automatic transmission with a unique police-service calibration that supports pursuit performance. Designed for law enforcement use The 2015 Tahoe PPV was developed to deliver a more controlled ride with improved steering and braking responsiveness compared to previous models. A strong, fully boxed, perimeter frame supports payload and trailering capability that body-frame-integral SUVs can't match. With the addition of electric power steering, the Tahoe has…

gas per year. In comparison, the cost of electricity to power Model S over the same distance if four time lower over five year average length of ownership that 's between $6,000 and $10,000 in gasoline savings we 've assumed a fuel economy of 20 mile per gallon for a comparable gasoline powered premium sedan for example the 2015 Mercedes Benz s550 we 've also assumed the national average of $0.12 per kilowatt hour for electricity.” electric cars are very good for the environment. there has…

Electric cars have been around since the 1830’s, but saw a major decline during the 1900’s when the Model T was introduced and mass produced killing any hope for electric cars until now[]. As we all know electric vehicles run off batteries becoming more environmental friendly. Figure A shows a general outline of what an Electric vehicle consists of. Electric motors get there power from a controller, while the controller gets its power from rechargeable batteries. Batteries come in many different…
