can that size of engine yield ample rpm (if collectively to a car alternator) to payment my 12 volts dc battery ?

kenkidd questioned:

I too am effective on building a home-built hybrid so as to proffer the array of an EV. I am inane to use a combustion engine to spin the motors.

If each 48v motor produces 100 amps independently, when collective to start 96v, it must only subdue grant 100 amps. At smallest amount that’s how it facility with batteries, assess?
Bonus info. I have 2 48v dc 100 amp gripping motors that I want to use as generators. I plot to turn these using a gas engine. I need the productivity potential to be 96v dc 100 amps. Can I get by wiring these generators in run?

5batteries on freight train have power for 1 hr each and charging time is 3hours on each, pulling generators?

sbachhal questioned:

the generators are assembled with rotary and wind energy owing to a tadem differential axle to a gearbox with flywheel to a generator, here are transmission lines privileged than the tracks to transmit electricity, some of the potential will be used to payment the batteries by hegemony logic. The teach is full to 50mph while the genorator is not be used so teach engine is off at 50mph and genoraters are now tansmiting potential till speed is 10mph and the repeating is what you do. simalar to hybrid car but on a larger extent with larger forces at work. radius of wheels attacted to the axle is 5 feet.

I know the main problem is making the tank small ample to fit in a car and make it safe .But do you reflect in th next 5 or 10 being they will make it safe and small ample to fit in a car?

I know hybrid cars are out and are excellent for city driving but not excellent for driving on a highway .The battery is use in the city and the gas is used on the highway . But hybrid cars are fake has you have to use the gas to payment the battery .So you subdue have to go to a gas rank and it will run on battery in the city but on the highway you need the gas has the battery is not powerful ample.

Here are some new hybrid cars .But the problem is they are not powerful ample on the highway and you need to payment the battery .So they are only excellent for city driving.

Now gripping cars are okay but 4 tribulations.

1. They are not powerful ample on the highway
2 .Where do you take it to plug it in to payment ?
3 How long does it take to payment
4 How long will it run with out needing to be payment again.

Inane to a gas rank takes 2 summary but I do not reflect it will take 2 summary to payment

Gentlemen

Thankfulness for answering my previous question viz: can I give a new lease of life battery by charger collectively to the AC give from the inverter? I have seen from your answers that even if this is possible it is not not compulsory

My question now is: can I give a new lease of life the battery by way of a car alternator. That is, I potential a rotor, say, 100watt motor that will be coupled to a car alternator, which will then payment the battery. Really I want to eliminate the need for grid electricity in this project.

An A321 force use 24000 lbs of fuel to go place a stop to public. At 8 lbs per gallon that’s 3,000 gallons. With 150 passangers that’s approximately 150 mpg per passanger.
I would like figures for all aircraft (lbs burned per agreed number of miles flown).

steve00878 questioned:

Investigate the Prius or another hybrid. Outline for a fleeting time how they work and focus on a fastidious figure you find fresh. Are you impressed with the batteries, or perhaps the regenerative brakes?

And if here is anything in here you just don’t get, question – or tell it in your paper.

Then, take a spot. While hybrids do get better mileage, they aren’t automatically the best – the Smart Car, for model, gets better mileage. And a lot of the equipment in a hybrid is very “dirty,” in a manufacturing implication. It’s honest to say building a Prius makes more pollution than building a ordinary car. So the question is, does hybrid equipment really start a benefit, or are “we” fooling ourselves?

It’s been around forever. You see guys all over who aver they have uncommon energy sources adn equipment, this has been inane on forever. GM even had a levelheaded battery powered car in the 90’s. With all this talk about green household gases and the price of gasoline, why the crap are we subdue life sold 30MPG cars?
Hegemony, cash, lack of better alternatives?
I’m just not export this hybrid crap. The equipment must exist, right?
I guess the Road Fighter show wasn’t that far off. Just reflect of the oil cash that would be lost, the wars not fought, the frankness Americans would have if their cars may maybe be exciting at home. Has anyone here seen what they are building in Dubai??

I subdue can’t judge solar panels place of protection’t spellbound on in the mainstream, I guess it’s in view of the fact that they’re subdue so gosh dang pointlessly pricey. You can buy a $25,000 solar potential unit for a home and really make cash back on the electricity you don’t use and yield for the potential company and it comes with a 25 year warranty. Now if it was half that price that would be awe-inspiring.
