(Electromagnetics)Coil Rings and Power

Post by william897 »

how can can i relate enviormental use of my project which has to do with the number of coils and voltage induced by electromagnetics?
any suggestions?

Hello:

First ask yourself where electromagnets are used. Some examples might be electric generators and motors. Many commonly used items also use electromagnets as solenoids. Imagine that you could find a way to drastically improve the efficiency of electromagnets. How would that improve our lives? Would the energy savings have a direct impact on our environment?

Hello,
Also, look into the cost of materials used. Fewer # of coils = Less materials used= Less material manufactured. Check into maufacturing process of the materials to see how that might affect the environment.

Good Luck.
