Implementation of E-Bicycle Using Old Alternator

Abstract

In today’s interconnected world travelling has become vital for us. In order to live in this fast forward world we must able to travel from place to place. It is very important that time taken for travelling should be less and it should be economical and easily available. With the fast depleting resources of petrol and diesel there is a need of finding alternate sources. One such source is electricity. Hence we have selected electric bike as our project topic. Electric bike is driven with the help of electric motor and powered by battery. Battery used is rechargeable and can be charged with the help of external power source. In this project we have used electronic speed controller to control the speed of electric motor and acceleration and deacceleration of bike will be efficiently and smoothly control. The project thus aims to reintroduced the bicycle with more user friendly and low cost features. This study aims to modify the previous Car Alternator as a DC voltage generator and then convert it to a motor as a water pump drive with DC voltage input.in the modification of the Car Alternator there are several components that are removed including Diodes and ICs, so that only the Rotor and Stator Coil are used. At the time of testing, the stator coil is inserted 24 Volt DC voltage, while in the rotor coil the voltage is varied.
