Magnetic Industry: Taking Strides
What are magnets? According to the Webster Dictionary, a magnet is a body having the property of attracting iron and producing a magnetic field external to itself or a mass of iron, steel or alloy that has this property artificially imparted. Magnets are used for various purposes like magnetic recording tapes, credit and debit cards, television and computers, speakers, microphones, compass toys etc. The greatest contribution of magnets has been in the fields of electronic, chemical, mining, automobile, medical and food processing industries. Magnets were initially manufactured by and used in the West, but as technology increased and developing countries started taking part in the industrial and electronic revolution, the use of magnets spread to all areas of the world, be it Africa or Asia. The increasing population of these areas, meaning increased labour, along with the emerging government policy of various countries combined with low labour costs and big internal markets have made the Asian and African regions on par with the West.
Different types of magnets are now being used for different types of industries. The funnel magnet, a magnet enclosed in a cylinder and consisting of permanent anisotropic magnets like ferrite or rare earth magnets, useful in the removal of iron impurities from any liquid, is used in the ceramic, oil, colours and magnetic industries. Magnets are used in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI scans) in hospitals. In the electronic industry, magnets are used extensively. Magnets help in the working of televisions by scattering electrons towards various parts of the screen. Computer screens work on a similar principle as that of television whereas the storage disks used inside the computers have tiny magnetic fields which help in the storage of data.
The magnet industry has gained immense popularity in the market. Magnets are an essential part of any electronic, automobile, chemical and many other major industries. According to the 2005 census, the global market of magnets was around $ 7.6 billion. The market of magnets is expected to grow from .1 billion to .8 billion, at an average growth rate of 7.8% per year. Maximum growth of the magnet industry is expected in countries like India, China, Russia, Taiwan, Indonesia and Mexico, basically in the developing countries.

Will a or several car batteries turn a magnetic motor out of a treadmill (120v-240v)?
If you put 10 charged car batteries in series, you would have an output of 120V, that would be able to turn the motor. To put them in series, you connect the positive terminal from the first to the negative terminal of the second, then the positive of the second to the negative of the third, etc… until you have them all linked with the negative terminal of the first battery open to connect to the negative pole of the motor and the positive pole of battery number 10 open to connect to the positive pole of the motor. I would suggest not doing this however, because you will be playing with enough voltage and amperage to easily kill yourself if you connect the wrong things.
Would it be possible that a magnetic motor can be used as an alternative source of electricity?
Example is a 110 v light bulb can light with the use of magnetic motor? can it be applicable with cars too?
I was thinking about trying to make a magnetic car motor =D?
OK, me and my uncle were talking and I came up with a idea! Couldn’t you be able to just put a high powered electric magnetic at the top of the cylinder and just put a less powerful magnetic with the same polarization as the electric magnet on top of the piston
? You would have essentially the same engine block, just eliminating the fuel intake. Thus, removing the entire need for such an expensive natural resource. Also reducing the weight by removing the gas tank, OH, MORE TRUNK SPACE!! sorry just thought of that
Now what I was thinking is that when I say your car hardly changes it does, I’d figure with having a high powered electric magnet you would still need in a sense “plug wires” just a more heavy duty set. Keeping the rotary button and distributor cap in the same fashion as the timing to “fire” the magnets in the cylinder at the top when the piston is at the top dead center, with the magnet then “firing” and push the piston down to bottom dead center shutting off the stationary electric magnet at the top of the cylinder. This puts the other piston(s) at top dead center when the magnet get the charge from the rotary button which would need to be a durable one to carry enough energy to possibly spin the crankshaft thousands of times a minute. That would also apply to your alternator and magnet due to it could possibly be turning on and off thousands of times a minute, theoretically! By keeping the air intake and maybe modifying another air intake of some sort through the port for the fuel injection into the cylinder this would also keep the exhaust stroke and the lovely sound of mufflers! In turn you have a clean exhaust and everything else pretty much is the same. You still have the transmission, on-board computer, ignition system, braking system, cooling system, I would say a turbo would fit it quite nicely and you can still have a nice ride, theoretically =( you would also have to have oil, transmission fluid, and break fluid. however, no GAS!! But you cant have good without bad, what would happen with a high powered electric magnet turning on and off a lot inside of a metal engine block with another decently powered magnet always magnetized? That’s the only problem I could figure. Would it like magnetize your car and when you get in you wipe out your credit cards? or would the cylinders begin to draw up? i was just wandering got what you guys thinking?
What you have forgotten is that magnetism works on what is called the inverse square law.
That means you double the distance and the power does down by a factor of 4.
Triple the distance and it goes down by 9.
The point is that magnetism is only strong when it it is very close.
Once the piston was a half inch away, there would no longer be enough force from the magnet to matter.
Uhh… say what?
First of all, a magnetic motor is not a source of electricity. A motor is a consumer of electricity. What you’re thinking of is a generator, not a motor. A generator by definition generates or produces electricity. A motor by definition uses electricity.
Secondly, magnetic generators have been used to produce electricity for decades. How do you think your home is lit up? How do you think we get our electric supply?!? Hello, which rock have you been hiding under for the past 10 years (how old are you again?)?
A Magnetic Motor Car.?
Permanant Magnets to run the Motor of the Car
IN JAPAN TRAINS RUN WITH MAGETS
someone has found high capacity batteries using liquid metal electrodes.
is it possible to make a magnetic motor?
is it possible to make a magnetic motor that will spin on it’s own do to magnetism? if so, can you use a pulley on this motor to drive a generator? and if so, can you use the power of the generator to run a 800 hp electric motor that you would place in the engine compartment of your car if you take the original gas burning engine out?
Yes, all electric motors do that, yes you could use a pulley to run a generator, yes, you could put an 800 hp electric motor in a extremely large car.
The problem is looking at the overall system.
Lets work backward at the parts of the system you propose, an 800 hp motor will dissipate 750 watts per hp, or 800 X 750 your motor would dissipate 600,000 watts. Even at 100% efficiency, that is a lot of power consumed. Your car would need to be about the size of a semi to hold it, or a train engine.
600Kwatts is enough to run 18 homes.
A magnetic motor, would take some input to overcome losses due to resistance in the system. By virtue of touching it or removing energy from the system, even in the process of reading the system you have to remove energy from it you increase loss in the system. Say, you are on a bike heading down hill, and pulling a trailer with the breaks locked, assuming it is not vertical, or greater than 45 degrees, you will have to peddle the bike to make up for the loss the trailer adds to your system. the generator is the same, you take away energy, it must be added.
Long story short, you would need 720,000 watts into the magnetic motor for it to spin driving a generator to run and 800 hp electric motor. This is without taking into account, the losses in the generator.
All this assumes you have an 80% efficient system, which is outstanding for this type of system, in reality, short of some Star Trek answer the system losses would be in the range of about 55 to 72% efficiency for a very well engineered system, which means you will have to lose the belts, to much energy loss, and it would take to many belts.
In Japan trains do run with magnets, but there is energy put into the system from an external source. Some of the trains use electromagnets, which need energy put into them from an external source. Even the maglev trains that use permanent magnets still need an external power source to propel the train, the permanent magnets simply support the weight of the train to allow it to levitate. So you could run a car using magnets but you would need an external power source such as a battery anyway. It is not used because its cost/benefit is very poor compared to that of an IC or hybrid engine. Your not the first to think of this idea.
