Exploring Electromagnetic Engine Propulsion: Design of a Next-Gen Engine

Abstract

The pursuit of innovative and sustainable engine technologies has led to the exploration of electromagnetic solenoid engines as a potential alternative to traditional internal combustion engines, specifically within the context of electric vehicles (EVs). This work aims to design, build, and test a prototype electromagnetic solenoid engine, leveraging the principles of electromagnetism to convert electrical energy into mechanical motion suitable for EV applications. The solenoid engine operates by using electric current to generate a magnetic field within solenoids, which in turn drives a piston to produce linear motion. Through detailed simulations and experimental prototypes, key performance metrics such as energy efficiency, power output, thermal management, and system durability are examined. Additionally, the study investigates the impact of various design parameters, including solenoid coil configuration, magnetic materials, and control strategies, on the overall performance of the engine. The findings demonstrate the feasibility of using electromagnetic solenoids for electric vehicle propulsion, highlighting potential benefits in terms of reduced emissions, lower noise levels, and enhanced efficiency. This research contributes to the advancement of green propulsion technologies, providing valuable insights for the development of next-generation sustainable engines for electric vehicles.
