Abstract :
The base concept of this project is to create a sustained energy from renewable source, due to the decrease of conventional energy resources and it is necessary to find an alternate source. The Magnetic material (neodymium) is eco-friendly resources, used for the construction of permanent magnet. These permanent magnets have high energy density within them; this plays a vital role for this engine. In general the permanent magnets are combined with other conventional electrical devices to perform various tasks in industries. The highlight of this project is that the magnetic force of neodymium magnet is converted to mechanical energy by using suitable mechanisms such as a slider crank, electromagnet, a digital controller, sensors and coreless generator. The magnetic engine works similar to that of a two stroke engine, it also has a power and absorption stroke, the variation of stroke time generates knocking and oscillation in the machine, it is controlled by the electromagnet powered from the crank of the machine. Now, magnetic engine gives birth to a sustained energy converted from magnetic energy which can be used in day to day life. Magnetic engine provides a sustained energy approximately for forty days without any external input. This kind of alternative source of energy can given for irrigation and domestic purpose.
