Since the electric traction motor draws power from the battery, the platform supports multiple options for charging the battery. As described at the 2007 NAIAS, the initial configuration used a turbocharged 1.0-liter engine with three cylinders; this was a flex-fuel engine capable of running gasoline or E85 (85% ethanol , 15% gasoline ...
Trickle charging is the process of charging a fully charged battery at a rate equal to its self-discharge rate, enabling the battery to remain at its fully charged level. This state occurs almost exclusively when the battery is not loaded, as trickle charging will not keep a battery charged if current is being drawn by a load.
The tractive force was transmitted from the drive axles to the bogies. From there the force was carried to the bogie mounted towing hook and the buffers. The bogies were connected together with a so-called short coupling. The locomotive body did not carry any tractive forces.
The Ce 6/8 I 14201 was one of four test locomotives ordered by the Schweizerischen Bundesbahnen (Swiss Federal Railways) (SBB) in June 1917. For gaining experience for ordering electrical locomotives this locomotive should – as its three siblings Be 3/5 12201, Be 4/6 12301 and Be 4/6 12302 – have been used for services on the Gotthardbahn (Gotthard railway).
Parasitic load or parasitic loss may refer to . in internal combustion engines, it refers to devices that take energy from the engine in order to enhance the engine's ability to create more energy or convert energy to motion.
President-elect Donald Trump complained on Friday that American flags would still be lowered to half-staff in honor of the late President Jimmy Carter during Trump's Jan. 20 inauguration.
To obtain tractive power, capacitors would excite the flywheel's charging motor so that it became a generator, in this way transforming the energy stored in the flywheel back into electricity. Vehicle braking was electric, and some of the energy was recycled back into the flywheel, thereby extending its range.
Depending on where you live, that can be difficult in the dead of winter, but it’s not impossible. Bundling up and going for a 10-minute afternoon walk is one way. If you have SAD, light therapy ...
