The piston rings fit into horizontal grooves in the pistons. The rings expand against the cylinder wall and seal the combustion chamber. This ensures that the engine maintains a consistent level of compression. Stuck piston rings are uncommon, but they do occur. There are two positions in which the...

There are many different types and sizes of electric motors. Electric motors can be divided into two types: Alternating Current (AC) motors and Direct Current (DC) motors. An AC electric motor requires an alternating current, while a DC motor requires direct current.
AC motors are further...
DC or direct current motors are the most efficient electrical motors on the market today. Understanding the basic layout of a DC motor can go a long way in the troubleshooting and repair of the motor. There are two major components of an electrical motor called the stator and the rotor. Generally a...
One of the most common varieties of electric motors is the brushed direct current (DC) motor, which can be found in numerous electrical applications. Like all electric motors, they rely on a constantly changing magnetic field between stationary and rotating magnets. Brushed DC motors consist of a...
A DC motor works by using the power of magnets. Opposite poles on magnets attract each other, whereas similar, or like, poles repel. A permanent magnet DC motor uses a field magnet to set up a static magnetic field. An armature with an arrangement of electromagnets is connected to an axle. The...
In any electric motor, rotation is caused by two magnetic fields that oppose each other. In some motors, both fields are created by coils of wire - electromagnets. In other motors, one field is electromagnetic and the other comes from one or more permanent magnets.In the permanent magnet (PM)...
Magnets produce magnetic fields, or areas in which potentially magnetic materials, such as iron, are polarized and attracted to the magnet. There are two types of magnets: permanent magnets and electromagnets. Permanent magnets have a constant magnetic field, while electromagnets only produce a...
Micro systems technology:
To convert Kinetic energy into electricity one needs more than just a micro-generator. The kinetic energy has to be converted into rotational energy driving the micro-generator. The generator has to be accelerated by means of a gearbox or a spring and the energy has to...
The article How Electric Motors Work explains how brushed motors work. In a typical DC motor, there are permanent magnets on the outside and a spinning armature on the inside. The permanent magnets are stationary, so they are called the stator. The armature rotates, so it is called the...
When building models, be they planes or boats or robots, the ubiquitous motor of choice is the brushless motor. The reason for this is power and longer run times. A motor with brushes has current running through them into the center of the motor. After a time, friction can cause wear, resulting in...
