What is magnetic piston?

The Magnetic Repulsion Piston Engine (MRPE) is a newly found green technology that focuses on running the engine using magnets. It describes an engine that works on the principle of repulsion of two different types of magnets, i.e., a permanent magnet and an electromagnet.

How does electromagnetic engine works?

The Electromagnetic Reciprocating Engine operates by taking electricity from a battery, converting it to Magnetic Energy using electromagnets, and converting that kinetic energy to Mechanical Energy using the crankshaft. The linear motion of the Magnetic Chamber is converted into circular force and torque.

How does a reciprocating motor work?

In a reciprocating engine, during the downward movement of the piston, the engine sucks the fuel into the cylinder. During the compression stroke, the crankshaft moves the piston up. The crankshaft gets the reciprocating motion of the piston via a connecting rod and transforms this motion into rotary motion.

How does a piston powered engine work?

The engine consists of a fixed cylinder and a moving piston. The expanding combustion gases push the piston, which in turn rotates the crankshaft. After the piston compresses the fuel-air mixture, the spark ignites it, causing combustion. The expansion of the combustion gases pushes the piston during the power stroke.

What is magnetic repulsion?

The repulsion or attraction between two magnetic dipoles can be viewed as the interaction of one dipole with the magnetic field produced by the other dipole. The magnetic field is not constant, but varies with the distance from the dipole.

Who invented electromagnetic propulsion?

In the 1960s Eric Roberts Laithwaite developed the linear induction motor, which built upon these principles and introduced the first practical application of electromagnetic propulsion.

Who invented reciprocating engine?

In 1206, Arab engineer Al-Jazari invented a crankshaft. The reciprocating engine developed in Europe during the 18th century, first as the atmospheric engine then later as the steam engine. These were followed by the Stirling engine and internal combustion engine in the 19th century.

What is the difference between an electromagnet engine and a piston?

An electromagnet is positioned on the top of the cylinder, while construction of engine is traditional. And piston is just a permanent magnet (Neodymium magnet). There is no combustion within the cylinder so design of piston and cylinder arrangement is simpler as compared to IC Engine. So the accuracy of dimensions is not a serious matter here.

What is the function of a permanent magnet in a piston?

Permanent Magnet acts as piston and Electromagnet is located at the top of the cylinder . The Electromagnet is energized by a battery source of suitable voltage and the polarities of electromagnet are set in such a way that it will repel the permanent magnet i.e. piston from TDC to BDC.

Where is the electromagnet located in an engine?

Electromagnet is positioned on the top of the cylinder of engine, and permanent magnet is used as the piston in engine. Piston of the engine is connected to the crank shaft through connecting rod. Connecting rod is connected to the crank shaft by using gudgeon pin.

How does an electromagnet work?

The Electromagnet is energized by a battery source of suitable voltage and the polarities of electromagnet are set in such a way that it will repel the permanent magnet i.e. piston from TDC to BDC. There is a solenoid formed in which current is passed resulting in magnetic flux.
