Electric generator

How much power would a v8 engine produce powering an electric generator?
If I removed a v8 engine could i convert it to power an electric generator?Would it be enough power to run a house?
Ya it could be made to work. 1HP is 746 watts. So lets say you run your engine at 100HP, you'd have 75kW. A typical house might need 10kW, so you'd be able to power a half dozen houses.
You'd need a cooling solution if you're going to run an IC engine at high output in a stationary position.
A simple electric generator -- Invention (free energy)

To fully understand and appreciate the importance of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), it is crucial to first understand how electricity is generated and distributed in whatever country around the world you happen to be. In many Westernised societies it is tightly controlled, regulated and fairly reliable but in other areas it is not and power protection at the final point of consumption, whether business or residential, needs to bare this in mind. It may be that what's needed is some form of micro-generation as well as uninterruptible power supply.
Electricity can be derived from a number of sources these days and the call for renewable technology in response to environmental pressures means the list is getting longer. Coal, gas-fired or nuclear generation stations have been the primary methods so far but wind, wave or solar power are beginning to make their mark.
The phenomenon that generates electricity is termed Electro-magnetic Induction. Its output is an alternating current (ac) waveform. The process by which this happens utilises magnets on a shaft which rotate near to windings (usually three) into which electric current is induced; referred to as Electro-motive Force. The process is the same in each case; the only difference between each of the energy generation types is the fuel it uses to make the shaft spin.
The windings within a generator are separated by 120 degrees of rotation, which creates a three-phase waveform comprising of P1 (phase 1), P2 (phase 2) and P3 (phase 3) components.
The measurement of kV, at which electricity is generated, varies around the world from country to country, region to region. In the UK, for example, it is typically 25kV, which is stepped up to 275/400kV before being distributed as a three-phase, 50Hz supply. It needs to be distributed at a high voltage to overcome resistance (that might be in the network) or transmission losses. As it moves through the network, however, to the point of use, the voltage is reduced. On the outskirts of major towns and cities, substations lower the voltage. In the UK this would be to 132kV. These substations are connected to even smaller substations that reduce the voltage even further to typically 33kV and 11kV (UK). These are found either within or close to the point of delivery.
It is at these substations that a neutral and earth reference are added so that, in the case of the UK, a 400Vac, three-phase, plus neutral and earth (TP+N+E) can be supplied to the incomer of a site or building, which could be residential (larger buildings such as blocks of flats), commercial or industrial. The physical point at which this happens is known as the Point of Common Coupling (PCC). In the UK, a single-phase, 230Vac supply (more typically for residential consumer use) can be derived from the same substation (or incomer), by drawing on any one phase and neutral. In this way, the earth and neutral reference points are connected all the way back along the distribution network to the substation.
Each country or region around the world has its own set of grid transmission and distribution codes that govern electricity generation and distribution. In particular these stipulate minimum and maximum voltage and frequency values allowed.
For any site, the quality of power received through its incomer is directly affected by the performance of the electrical distribution network upstream. Today this can be intercontinental and span a range of political and cultural environments. Within a distribution network power problems can be caused by:
- Network operation, grid switching, auto re-closers and fault tracing.
- Network hardware failure, including transformer and breaker malfunctions.
- Power shortages during peak demand periods when supply is restricted.
- Accidental severing of supply cables during construction or street works.
- Acts of terrorism, vandalism or deliberate sabotage.
- Environmental activities such as lightning, heat, rain, snow, ice, wind or wildlife.
On any site, a stable and clean electricity supply can be affected and influenced by local overloading, simple switchgear faults and the operation of industrial or commercial equipment and fittings - including mechanical presses, welding equipment, lifts, escalators, air-conditioners, photocopiers and fluorescent lights. All of these can induce power problems into a mains power supply that may have been reasonably stable and clean beforehand.
A review of power generation and distributed and the effect it might have on power quality (alongside other environmental, political and social unrest that may have an effect) has a baring on the size and type of uninterruptible power supply that may be ideally suitable to an installation.

Alternatives for labor
Poors cannot afford to keep an elephant as it is too costly.
Sometimes 10-20 sadhus keep elephant as a pet,
and go with it for collecting donations.
Seeing the elephant as ganesh, hindus donate.
and thus the group survives.
Bulls can be used to run an electric generator that is like a treadmill. this electricity can be used to power tools to dig or do other work. on bull perhaps can provide power to 3-5 people using power tools. This scheme saves labor, but needs investment in tools and the equipment.
Bharat should not depend upon rain for growing foods.
Like in US, the Gov. should control the production of foods, by subsidising farmers. Then no laborer should be allowed to slppe hungry, no mater in what condition he/she is. A system is needed by which food sould be available to all.
No poor should spend money in drugs, alcohol etc.
This is internal change on the basis of dharma.
The need to be educated,inceasing their capacity to earn more with less manual labor.
The employers need to be fair in hiring. Nepotism, corruption, etc, cannot help poor.
The vedic society needs to revive the vedic attitude of respect for all, including the poor. All should treat poors (and all) with due human dignity. I have seen some treat poors worse than a mad dog. This is sad.
Some small explosives could be used to break roads, or dig.
This needs safety training first.
The method of digging could be changed to be less tiring.
In some situatuations however, the only way is for a man to dig manually.
The wages of them could be raised by law.
A system needs to be set such that one who hires a laborer cannot get away without paying his due. I have seen many arguing with the laborers after the performed their work, and not payign enough, and the laborer has no way to get the money. In contrast, US enforces teh law. if one wors for another, he gets paid, or else he quickly can force the employer to pay.
The legal system must work well, and keep no backlog of cases.
In contrast, what I have seen is that when both the aprties are present in the court, then the courts choose to set another date for hearing.
I have transgressed the subject, but many problems are inter-related.
Need to be solved.
"Electricity" is the quantity of electrons moving in a circuit.
The "rotational force" causes an electric motor's magnetic field collapse.
"DC" is the output for a generator. "Electrons moving through a conductor is another description for "current".
The electricity we get from batteries and generators is called "DC".
In an electric motor, opposing magnetic fields cause the "armature" to turn.
Remember, an alternator produces AC voltage, a generator produces DC voltage.

well i have yet to put this design into effect so bear with me. the setup involves a freely rotating wheel of any size with magnets of one pole fixed around the wheel at a 45 degree angles, at some point around the wheel you will need a magnet of the opposite pole set at a 45 degree angle as well. the fixed magnet will set the wheel in motion. on the inside of the wheels spoke have tightly coiled copper as it conducts electricity well. on the AXEL of the wheel, have coiled copper as well. as the two coils of copper rotate against each other, an electrical charge should be generated. simply connect the coiled to a light bulb or whatever and there you go. have fun, and good luck. hope this works for you.
p.s. coiling an electric wire and running electricity through it will generate a magnetic field…
