@wds4097

Жыл бұрын

@Richard Autenzio If you look at the Dyno charts of an electric motor, you’ll find that voltage will always be about level (give or take about 10% between 0RPM and the max RPM), but the drawn amperage will climb from a low baseline linearly up until it reaches between 3500 - 4000RPM, then it’ll begin coming back down at a decelerating pace, but the RPM will keep increasing. Basically, to get an electric motor to accelerate from 0 to around 4000 RPM takes a lot of power, but getting it from there to 8000 - 10,000 RPM takes less and less power. In much the same way it takes much more effort to pull a heavy cart from a dead stop to keeping it rolling once it has some inertia, an electric motor takes less energy to maintain or even reach higher speeds than it does to get it up to a lower critical speed. This is why cruising in an electric car at 40 - 50+ mph is much more efficient than trying to drive in the city, even with a similar amount of slowing down and accelerating (say +/- 10mph every few minutes).

He did not realise how much harder it was to turn a loaded alternator than an unloaded one when I was talking about the work input during load shedding (power trips off type of change). It was only when it started to get dark at work leaving time in late October that he found his own proof. He rode a motor bike to and from work and when he was leaving he started the bike and let it tick over as he put his helmet on. He then put the lights on and heard the engine slow down, switched them off and the revs picked up again. The next day he came in and told us he had never even thought about the lights using fuel as being significant.

Therefore the depth of the topic needs to be explored by the students themselves in their own time.

if it wouldnt extend the range then why are hybrids a proven point that this works? bro said thats why they dont put alternators in them already, but they do, all the brands. it also puts a load on the engine but somehow it extends the range. you dont need all that torque just cuz u wanna go go 0-60 in 2 seconds. accelerating that fast is inefficient in itself. he thinks the electric motor is gonna use more power because of a load, but thats not how it works, the alternator steals energy from the already overpowered motor, extending its range by making it not as powerful. he literally explained it in the gears comparison. half the weight capacity for double the speed, or double the weight and half the speed. its the same concept why electric trucks r gonna require bigger/more motors to haul alot of weight. same concept why a v8 gets less mileage than a 4 cylinder. if you were to limit the v8 to only use 4 cylinders, it would also extend the mileage. thats exactly how regen braking works

I served on US Navy Submarines in the early 60’s both diesel and Nuclear boats. I was a Navy trained reactor operator when on Nuclear boats. In the fall of 1963, moored in New London CT there were a lot of anti-nuclear folks that on week ends and holidays would harass us by water skiing as close to our boats as possible yelling obscenities. It’s just like today but 60 years ago and it wasn’t just a few, there were many. Often I was standing topside watch with another mate, both of us armed with Remington 1911 .45’s. We tired of it over time and concocted a plan. Back then our boats had four sanitary tanks each capable of holding 1,500 gallons of human waste and they were blown with compressed air into the Thames River by the below decks watch during their 4-8 AM watch. Can’t do this today but it was different back then. I told the below decks watch to not blow these tanks to the river until I told them. When these guys on water skis came by we blew them into the Thames river right into their skiing path and they were skiing in our excrement. It personally made me feel better. I won’t tolerate bad behavior in a man. We are still seeing it today though.

electric motors use next to no power to turn motors, ever see how small the battery is to turn the motor on a hybrid? not much bigger than a battery for a Power Wheels kids car and the crank amps arent as high. With traditional motors they need spark, unless it's a diesel, to ignite the fuel which can't happen without a big amp battery. If you make a lot of stops and have to start and stop the motor it puts a strain on the battery and it eventually dies. That's where alternators come in, while it may not be effective with multiple motor stop/start cycles-nor will the starter motor last as long- it prolongs the life of the battery until it's internal design is wore out. Most V8s need 750-1000 crank amps or CA. CCA is cold crank amps which comes in play for regions where it gets close to freezing obviously and that's why it's also listed on the battery. When the starter motor is powered by the battery using 12v it uses a small motor and gear assembly with a Bendix actuator and wound magnet to push that little gear to mesh with the HUGE flywheel...little gear moving a huge gear that mechanically turns the vehicle motor until fuel takes over. The time before fuel takes over, which also type of fuel, age of motor, efficiency, etc come into play before it takes over uses a lot of power and this being amps. the alternator is designed to take some of the motor power to replenish the battery close to capacity as long as the system is complete and the battery can accept it. Corrosion will inhibit and make that system work very hard and destroy it over time. Bigger motors need bigger alternators and higher CA capacity batteries because of the little gear to big flywheel ratio like he used in the video, it's a trade off. But in the end it's only as good as the parts and how well they're maintained, much like our bodies 👍

Even if it was a tickle, it'd still take more energy to attempt that tickle than to go further...unless breakthroughs in tech allow it to happen. It could be hidden purposely though.....

Serious question. I get what you’re saying, but isn’t the variable gravity and drag? And therefore magnetic fields are the solution in some way, shape or form? Our planet oscillates in a cycle… what put that in motion, what keeps that in motion? Perpetual motion is real, we just haven’t figured it out. Great video though!!!

I agree that he has a talent for explaining the subject, but I disagree that this is a complex subject. It's a lot like buying something with sales tax. Sales tax representing the waste energy. You have $10, you want to buy a $1, and there's 10% sales tax, so it's going to cost you a total of $1.10. Now you have $8.90, not $10. Then for plugging the alternator into the battery to charge it, you haven't opened the soda and want to return it. Well there's a 10% restocking fee. So you're only going to get back $1.10 minus the 10% restocking fee, which ends up being $0.11. So now you've spent $1.10 and gotten back $0.99. So instead of starting with $10 and having $10 despite returning the soda, now you're 11 cents short, so you have $9.89. You've lost money just by trying to get your money back for an unused product. Keep doing that, keep buying and returning the soda because we're talking about an engine running an alternator, every moment of time it loses energy, so to extend the analogy to this, you have to be constantly buying and returning the soda every nanosecond. Before you know it, you're out of money. So the motor is going to grind to a halt.

I wish I had math and science teachers like you back when I was in school. You have amazingly explained this concept.

A science teacher interested in real science? Is this real? I Would really like to know how to calculate how much is lost in each conversion of chemically generated (or would that be converted from what its stored in? Like gas, coal, nuclear?) required to get the energy generated/converted so much more efficiently than could ever be done in the engins under the hood of my car before its finally the electrical energy stored in batteries in an electric car being generated/converted into the mechanical energy required to turn the wheels of that car. So many steps must result in massive loss. From stepping (transforming?) It to high voltage, or even dc to transmit it from the power plant miles away where it is somehow magically created with ZERO emissions, Then converted to lower voltage & back from DC to ac at my city's substation so it can fit in my citys lines to be carried close to my home where it must be transformed to yet lower voltage before into my smart meter, then into the car charger Newsome was just a couple of weeks ago was telling everyone not to use because we had a couple of warm afternoons , & pg&e shuts off the power every time the wind blows & the grid can't provide what's needed now , Because those who have now made gasoline illegal in a couple years (Right about the time Claus has declared we will own nothing. But none of all this is related, of course) they had a duty(an important word to define) to qt least maintain the grid, & If they are going to make laws requiring 5 TIMES the current load (pun not intended) on the grid they had a DUTY to ensure they improve the grid accordingly. & the people have a duty to hold them accountable for being derilect! But I digress. So 240vac entered into the home & must be converted to 12 vdc (=LOSS yet again. Is that the 13th loss now? Ive loss track.) to go into the batteries, to be converted into chemical energy to be stored in those batteries where it must be converted back from chemical to electric energy before it can be converted to mechanical energy to turn the wheels. If only ten conversions/transformations (& rhere are far more) & you "only" lose 10% each time.... when fact is more like 30% loss...must be converted be used

The fuel you burn in your car has also gone through a series of conversions and transportation in order to become gasoline in your tank. It has to be extracted, transported to a refinery, refined, transported to storage, put in a delivery truck, added to a storage tank at your local gas station, and then dispensed into your tank. Each of those also takes energy (particularly the refinery bit, but the transport bits can also be pretty costly). Then your gasoline engine is about 20-35% efficient at turning the energy stored in the gasoline into motion. In order to compare that with electricity, you have to really look at the exact source of electricity. Taking natural gas, the extraction process is about as energy intensive as oil extraction, but it doesn't need refining, and converting it to electricity is about 45-57% efficient. From there transporting electricity happens over wires and while it is not lossless, it involves far less loss than trucking liquids. Once it is in your car (charging is another loss, but in the 5% range or less), the car itself is pretty close to 100% efficient at turning the electricity into motion. Of course, there are some losses for heating when it's very cold out, but the gasoline car is better at that only because there is so much waste heat it can be "thrown away" into the cabin - an electric car only has a fraction of those losses when it needs to produce heat. Electricity can also come from many sources, as electric cars don't care how their power was created - it's all electricity. So you can burn coal, burn natural gas, generate it with solar, tidal, nuclear, wind, or any one of a number of sources. So you can use the source that makes sense locally to generate electricity. "& pg&e shuts off the power every time the wind blows & the grid can't provide what's needed now ," Electric vehicles can (in large part) be charged at times when the demand is lowest and the supply is highest. Other electric uses have a more difficult time moving. So EVs can provide demand when the grid has excess supply (in most places this is at night when businesses are shut down, but in areas with a lot of solar power this can actually be during the day when solar plants are cranking out power). Most if not all EVs can easily be programmed to only charge when demand is low - and if you set electric prices appropriately (Time of Use plans) your EV drivers are going to be the portion of your demand that is the most easily-moved.

Thank you for your video. I'm over 70 and when I was a freshman, I came up with the idea of hooking a generator to a motor so that the motor would run forever. My science teacher walked me through the reasons it wouldn't work. I finally believed him when we set up a test in the lab and the motor stopped turning almost immediately. We spent a week of lunchtime breaks investigating why until I finally got the fact that energy is a constant and can not be created or destroyed. I fell in love with math after that experiment and went on to spend my working life as an engineer. My only regret today is that I have forgotten his name but not the time and the love for science he gave me..

I’m not an engineer so I’ll ask my dumb question. Say you build a light weight alternator that didn’t take a lot of torque to turn. Could you turn it sideways and add a pinwheel on the end of the shaft, then have a wind funnel on the car so it charges when you drive 35 MPH or faster? Obviously this isn’t going to do away with the need to charge but if you build one into each side of the car with intakes and one on the roof it might in theory be able to drastically extend the time needed between charges right? I work in green energy so I was just trying to think outside the box and can’t find an obvious downside to this. What do you think?

@ValidAsian

Жыл бұрын

@Dustin Bridges The main issue, if you were to do this, would be the added drag from the wind generator/ wind turbine. Especially, for an EV, drag has a huge effect on their efficiency. I haven't done the math on this but I am willing to bet that the increase in air resistance, turning the fan, would out way the energy generated. The only time it would generate more energy than the car is using is when it's going downhill but by that point, you should just use the motors driving the wheels as generators which all EVs do use (regen braking). Hope this answers your question :)

So true. If more people understood just how hard it is to turn an alternator that's under a significant load they'd realize how silly this free energy argument is. I wonder how many people remember how turning the lights on in an old car with a low battery would cause the engine rpm to decrease slightly as the engine would struggle against the load on the alternator. Turn the lights off and the rpm's would increase back to normal.

Very impressive explanations. This grandma, with no college, did not get lost. You had me at "you cannot create or destroy energy, you can only change form." You've taken Einstein and given us a hands on demonstration that brings that reality home. Thank you Jeremy!
