Project - Analysis of a practical automotive wiring circuit
1. Battery , Generator , Starter ,Distributor,Ignition Coil ,Current & Voltage Regulator ,Foot Selector Switch,Ammeter,Fuse
2.
Battery it is a electrochemical device used to store chemical energy and converts it to electrical energy.
WORKING:
- The chemical reactions in a battery involve the flow of electrons from one material (electrode) to another, through an external circuit.
- The flow of electrons provides an electric current that can be used to do work.
- To balance the flow of electrons, charged ions also flow through an electrolyte solution that is in contact with both electrodes.
- Different electrodes and electrolytes produce different chemical reactions that affect how the battery works, how much energy it can store and its voltage.
Generator
it is a machine that convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. in automobile they are also called as alternators too
WORKING
- The engine spins pulleys under the bonnet, which turns the pulley on the alternator and creates energy.
Breaker
A circuit breaker is an electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overcurrent or short circuit.
3. Power = 12*10 = 120 Watt
Power = Voltage * Current
Voltage is 12 V
500 = 12 * Current
Current = 500/12 = 41.67 A
Capacity = Current * Time
Capacity = 41.67 * 1hr = 41.67
Capacity is 41.67 Ah
5. Parallel connections are
- GENERATOR
- CURRENT AND VOLTAGE REGULATOR
Both components are connected in parallel because they have the same differential of potential voltage across their ends.
6.Series connections are
- Battery and startor
Starter and battery connected in series because same current Flows through them.
