Howstuffworks "How does a magneto work?" An electrical generator (or a magneto) is the reverse of an electromagnet (see How Electromagnets Work for details). Magnetos are also used on many small airplanes (for example, the Cessna 152 seen in How Airplanes Work) because they are extremely reliable. The magneto is the white block in the following photo (this is the magneto for a chain saw): science.howstuffworks.com /question375.htm

Magneto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A magneto provides pulses of electrical power to the spark plugs in some petrol-powered internal combustion engines, most commonly those in 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines used in small motorcycles, lawnmowers and chainsaws, as well as in most small aircraft, serving a similar function to the coil system found in automobiles. Magnetos combine the functions of a dynamo, contact breaker points and coil into one unit. Because no battery or other source of energy is required, the magneto is a rugged, reliable and self-contained solution to providing ignition of the fuel. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Magneto   (261 words)

Electrical Engineering Terms - J R Lucas *calorific value The calorific value of a fuel is the quantity of heat produced by a given weight of the fuel on complete combustion. *hall effect If an electric current flows in a wire placed in a strong transverse magnetic field, a potential difference is developed across the wire, at right angles to both the magnetic field and the wire. It thus increases the mean global surface temperature of the earth caused by gases in the atmosphere (including carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone, and chlorofluorocarbon). www.elect.mrt.ac.lk /electricalterms.htm   (16692 words)

Electromechanical sensors and controls A magneto resistive structure is disposed at the magnetic field null in the central aperture of the toroidal magnetic. An electrical circuit measures the resistance of the magneto resistive structure, this resistance varying with magnetic flux, and generates an electrical position signal which indicates the rotary position of the multiturn shaft. The proximity of a magnetically permeable target to the toroidal magnet shifts the position of the magnetic null, thereby causing a large change in the magnetic flux through the magneto resistive structure. www.ksu.edu /tech.transfer/macc/electromech.htm   (586 words)

Pixii Pixii's magneto-electric machine, developed in 1832, was the first practical mechanical generator of electrical current that used concepts demonstrated by Faraday. In 1832, after the publication of Faraday's experiments in his famous "Experimental Researches into Electricity", Hippolyte Pixii, an electrical instrument maker in Paris, constructed with the aid of William Ritchie a device in which a rotating permanent magnet induced an alternating current in the field coils of a stationary horseshoe electromagnet. Antoine-Hippolyte Pixii lived a very short life - only 27 years - but he made an important contribution to the development of electrical machines. chem.ch.huji.ac.il /~eugeniik/history/pixii.html   (475 words)

WashingtonPost.com: Duchamp: A Biography She accepts this stripping by the bachelors, since she supplies the love gasoline to the sparks of the electrical stripping; moreover, she furthers her complete nudity by adding to the first focus of sparks (electrical stripping) the 2nd focus of the desire-magneto. The large form at the top left is the pendu femelle, a decidedly unglamorous term meaning "hanging female object"; close examination shows that it does indeed hang from a painted hook at the top of the Glass. Three slightly irregular squares of clear (unpainted-on) glass are enclosed within the cloud; these are the Draft Pistons, a sort of telegraph system through which, using a special alphabet invented by Duchamp, the bride issues her commands, orders, authorizations, etc., thus setting in motion the machinery of love-making. www.washingtonpost.com /wp-srv/style/longterm/books/chap1/duchamp.htm   (4433 words)

Ink-jet head driving circuit - Patent 4714935 In addition, although the piezo-electric element has been used as the electrical/mechanical transducing means in the foregoing first and second embodiments, such means is intended to incorporate all of means for performing the mutual transduction between the electrical signal and the mechanical deformation, such as electro-striction element, magneto-striction element, etc. In this case, although the charges accumulated in the piezo electric element 41 are discharged through the switching elements 32 and 35, the time constant for this discharge is determined by resistance values of the variable resistors 38 and 40 and a capacitance value of the piezo-electric element 41 in the circuit of FIG. In this case, the charges having the opposite polarity which have been accumulated in the interval T.sub.1 are discharged at the same time constant as in case of charging due to the positive driving voltage V.sub.1 since the resistances of the switching elements 35 and 36 connected in parallel are extremely small. www.freepatentsonline.com /4714935.html   (4091 words)

Electric Clocks Fifty years earlier, Wheatstone was the first to describe these problems and his electric clocks were the first attempt at their solution by the use of magneto-electric induction. At the end of its downward movement the gravity arm touches an electrical contact on the armature of the electro magnet, and is thereby brought back to its upper position. It also carries a contact blade that closes the switch between two contacts, thus providing the necessary electrical contact for both the electro-magnet and for the circuit of secondary clocks, of which one serves as a secondary dial on the door of the case as usual (Fig. www.mypage.bluewin.ch /electric-clocks   (4091 words)

Magneto-Optic Imaging of High Temperature Superconductors Microscopic flux flow in undoped and Li-doped BSCCO cast tapes before and after neutron irradiation was studied by means of a magneto-optical imaging technique in order to correlate flux flow with the microstructure. High flux pinning densities are needed for increasing the electrical current carrying capabilities of high temperature superconductors. The magneto-optical images provided information on the morphology and alignment of the upper layer filaments in the tape, the relative depths of these filaments from the tape surface, and the homogeneity of the magnetic flux distribution within these filaments. www.msel.nist.gov /structure/ceramics/techactv95/magneto.html   (4091 words)
