Scottyy 🤟🏼🤙🏽

Right

Lol Me too @scotty EVs? 😅

thanks for the feedback. In the future videos

Honestly its complicated. And how you can store the energy differs. I'm surprised no one referenced formula one because this video kept reminding of their hybrid engines

battery smaller as well.

Heavier and larger semi trucks can gain alot of use out of regenerative braking, in non ev semi trucks. Truckers use what's called engine breaking. Basically they switch to a lower gear that slows down the combustion cycle in the engine. Pretty complicated and only useful for manual transmission cars like most diesel semi trucks. Also increases the torque output which can crack weaker roads. But when a semi EV uses regen breaking going down hill two things can happen, the vehicle can sap that gravity to use later when it goes back uphill entering a net zero. Second occasion is if the truck doesn't have to return to a higher elevation (it doesn't go back uphill) you end up charging your truck while you're driving. Second benefit to this system is that the brakes don't get overheated, that's why engine braking is used with manual diesel engines. All of that inertia will be converted into heat and melt your classical friction brakes. *Upon more research diesel trucks don't slow the combustion cycle they just suck all the energy out of the crankshaft/driveshaft and fart it out before it can be combusted. This cycle of pressurizing air and then farting it out consumes more energy than it produces (makes no energy because combustion doesn't occur) so the truck actually slows down.

3 amps dosnt sound bad for an ebike, whats the voltage and amps on tbe batt?

@@gabproductions3312 it's a 48v 20ah battery, but a few seconds of charging at 3 amps won't make any difference

@@Markcain268 yeah ur right

@@gabproductions3312 I'm sure the motor (1kw) can produce around 15 amps on regen so a bank of super capacitors could hold that charge and trickle charge the battery

@@Markcain268 im not sure, can a motor generate the same amount of power it consumes at the same rpm?

You are most welcome

It's my pleasure

Thanks, will do!

Thanks, will do!

Good to hear!

Lmao I was wondering the same thing hahaha

I would imagine they are used to represent the electric motor clutches

I didn't even notice till you mentioned

Looks a LOL bit like a motor too.

Someone hasn't hurd of the laws of thermodynamics

charging hybrid,really ;)?

@FacePwn64 that's right, man! You said it!

Just like cell phones, they drip technology to get more money; improvement here, improvement there but still with the old. Computer industry milked the world with this strategy, drip drip drip

You should be able to get an answer by looking up counter electromotive force (CEMF) and counter torque. These are considered generator action in a motor and motor action in a generator, respectively. The rotor of a generator has a magnetic field that is created either by a permanent magnet or an electromagnet powered through a method such as slip rings and brushes. When the device is motoring, the stator windings are powered via AC or step DC voltage (simulated AC) to create a rotating magnetic field. The rotor's magnetic field will try to lock onto this rotating magnetic field which causes the rotor to spin. For a motor, CEMF is induced back into the stator windings and is an energy loss. This CEMF comes from the rotor's magnetic field passing across the stator windings as it spins and attempting to cause current flow in the opposite direction. If you remove the AC power supply to the generator, the CEMF being generated is no longer CEMF as the device is no longer motoring. It is now considered a generator.

Have you heard when timing belts creak in cars? So their generator is faulty and due to too much resistance of the generator electromagnet, the belt that turns the generator slips in the rollers.

Electromagnetic induction, electricity can induce or create a magnetic field. Magnetic fields can also induce or create electricity. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed only transformed. So if the magnetic field is creating electricity it stands to reason it's simply consuming the rotation of your wheels (attached to the motor's rotor) and storing it in the battery.

Energy might be the same but the work is extremely different. We accelerate say 0 to 60 in 6 secs but brakes from 60 to 0 in 2 secs.

@@shiroyt4185 Time doesn't matter. It's the roughly same amount of energy only released faster or slower. (Ignoring air and road resistance) If you could catch all that energy it would make a massive difference. ( from 60 to 0 in 2 seconds.. That would be an absolute emergency stop on dry road. Normally when driving relaxed it would be different 😉)

@@Neodymium5312 I know. To heavy for sure. And you would still need some form of extra brake system to be able to reduce speed very fast and come to a standstill. I have often had in my mind an extremely tough spring made out of some really strong material which will me loaded by the torque converter the harder you push the pedal the less the converter slips. The tension in the spring could than be released while accelerating. That could make for quite a strong brake. Just riffing here 😁

@@Neodymium5312 Yea we are only just getting started. It all used to be so easy even just 20 years ago. Ever brand had like 3-5 models and they were all basically very similar. I think there was a point in the late 90's where I could actually name every single car on the road. I knew them all. Now we are being overloaded by technology and new inventions. There are loads of car brands that I have never even heard of. I honestly have no idea what we will end up with in 100 years from now. 😵

ya but that would assume people know how to drive and dont tail gate but they do even though it cost them more gas by doing so

Thanks a lot 😊

Glad you think so!

Regarding the first part I wouldn’t be able to explain, but regarding your last question, it does not put strain on the battery because the amount of electricity been generated by the brakes is very small compared to the high intensity power you would get out of a charger. It’s basically a very small charge at a time

The motors become generators and slow down the vehicle, evs have cvt's wich makes the gear ratio vary like downshifting on an auto or std vehicle slowly the car and spinning up the motor/gen faster.

@@gabproductions3312 EVs do NOT have a CVT, or any other kind of variable gear ratio transmission. The motor(s) are always coupled to the wheels through a fixed reduction gear. Most EVs are in the range of 9:1 from motor to wheel. There is no clutch, no torque converter, no neutral, no reverse gear. If the wheel is turning, the motor is turning 9 times faster. If the car is going backward, the motor is spinning backwards. The only EV in current production the actually does have a gear shift is the Porsche Taycan. It has a two speed dual clutch automatic.

When you drive a motor it is a generator. When you put power to a generator it is motor.

next video

The regeneration is not connected to the rotors in any way. Nor is any rewiring or rearrangement of the motors required to achieve regeneration. All that is required is to alter the phasing and voltage of the inverters that power the motors.

I am suffering from the same malady. Amazon is the absolute worst, with Google a close second, in my opinion. I search for a part for my car and Amazon shows me printer cartridges, personal lubricants, absolutely anything -except- the damned part I looked for.

Wth modern vehicles the last thing youd like to do is uninstall software updates, that's how issues are fixes and those aremt the issues a person could fix alone

@@gabproductions3312 That's the word vs reality.
