Title : Generator
Objectives : To get know about generator to be used
Contents : I need to design my generator, but I have no idea what to do. So I do some research on that. As we all know, we cannot convert 100% of kinetic energy into electrical energy. But that will not block me to complete my project on fuel save system.

| majority of DC motor available |
Results : All generators consisting of permanent magnets with coils of copper wire. The resulting current will follow the Law of Right Hand Fleming (Fleming Right Hand Rule). There are two options, which make my own generator, or using a permanent magnet motor as a generator. If I wish to build my own generator might had difficulty on doing that, so I just prefer to use permanent magnet motor.. first of all, I want to choose an ordinary DC motor, but I get difficulty on RPM.. for a DC motor that had been used in remote control car, it only used 5V to generate about 20000rpm or more.. but when used as a generator, it is not suitable.. so I need to find another type of DC motor.. after do some research, I decided to used stepper motor as my generator.. therefore, for good generator, it should have high voltage produced and low rpm..
Conclusion : i need to choose the right motor to be used as generator.. if i pick it wrong, then my project will become disaster..
