i need to put this information (below) in my own words, BUT I’m currently studying for 3 midterms for tomorrow, plus more homework. if someone could please paraphrase this stuff it would be a HUGE help and another thing off my to-do list.:
A vehicle’s ignition system provides the first steps required to start the engine. The primary goal of the system is to ignite the fuel-air mixture so that the resulting energy can power the motor. A variety of ignition system designs have been used throughout the years. However, modern cars utilize an electric spark to initiate combustion.
Modern car engine ignition systems consist of a distributor, ignition coil, spark plugs and spark plug wires. The entire system is connected to the engine’s battery. The distributor is the most complex and integral component of the system, and includes a rotating cam, condenser, rotor and distributor cap.
The ignition coil is the component that connects directly to the vehicle’s battery and includes two transformer windings. The primary winding feeds into the distributor, while the secondary winding connects to the spark plugs. The distributor’s cam rotates in unison with the engine’s compression cycle. When enough energy has been created, the spinning cam opens a breaker, which causes a high-voltage jump in the ignition coil. This voltage surge is transported to the spark plugs, resulting in the necessary electric spark to begin ignition.
There are currently two types of automobile ignition systems in use: mechanically timed and electronic. They differ mainly in the way that the high-voltage surge is released to the spark plugs. Mechanically timed systems utilize a series of breaker points, while electronic systems use optical or light sensors. Electronic ignition systems are considered superior because they eliminate the possibility for mechanical wear and improve overall effectiveness.
A car engines Ignition System with distributor type ignition systems can seem complex, but once simplified can be diagnosed with ease. Using the Diagram provided above you can see there are several different components. The most common component is the spark plug. If you do not have spark at the spark plug then you can backtrack from there. Use a new spark plug or spark tester to test for spark coming from the plug wire, if you do not see spark here, test for spark coming from the coil wire to the distributor. If these test ok, move on and look at the distributor cap and rotor for corrosion or damage. If these look ok, then you most likely have a failed ignition module. The ignition module is located under the distributor cap on GM vehicles and external on most other vehicles. Ignition module failure is the most common no spark symptom outside normal tune up maintenance.
The ECM (engine control module) controls the engine ignition timing by advancing and retarding the primary trigger signal. In old cars a points, condenser and a vacuum advance unit performed this job. This ignition coil is a pulse-type it consists, in part, of two coils of wire. These wires are wrapped around two iron cores. Because this is a step-up transformer, the secondary coil has far more turns of wire than the primary coil. The secondary coil has several thousand turns of thin wire, while the primary coil has just a few hundred raps. This allows 40,000 volts or more of voltage to be generated by a car battery.
This electrical signal is generated by the crankshaft position sensor (CKP), camshaft position sensor (CAS). The ECM calculates spark timing by using the computer system.
The initial power supplied to the ignition system is generated from the battery. All vehicles use an alternator to recharge the battery during normal operation. A low battery can cause an engine not to start even if the engine is cranking over slowly. This is because the vehicle voltage has dropped below 12 volts. If any component of the ignition system is not functioning properly, it can cause an entire ignition system failure. Proper maintenance such as a tune up can help ensure that the vehicle’s ignition system operates at peak performance.
Most four-stroke engines have used a mechanically timed electrical ignition system. The heart of the system is the distributor. The distributor contains a rotating cam driven by the engine’s drive, a set of breaker points, a condenser, a rotor and a distributor cap. External to the distributor is the ignition coil, the spark plugs and wires linking the distributor to the spark plugs and ignition coil.
The system is powered by a lead-acid battery, which is charged by the car’s electrical system using a dynamo or alternator. The engine operates contact breaker points, which interrupt the current to an induction coil (known as the ignition coil).
The ignition coil consists of two transformer windings sharing a common magnetic core—the primary and secondary windings. An alternating current in the primary i
This is YOUR "to-do" list — can’t understand why you think that WE would do it.
Also remember, putting something "in your own words" is STILL plagiarism! If you want to use parts of this (and you didn’t even post all of it) in your paper, just cite where you got the information.
Here’s how to summarize:

My best advice would NOT be waiting around for someone to do this — that you get on it yourself and perhaps learn not to procrastinate.

Ok, so I am a thirteen year old environmentalist and i have my goal set in life. To create a vehicle for everyone that runs on electricity. I love electric cars and i have drove one before. There quiet and slick. I have plans for one already and I am an eighth grader whiz. I am very interested in this field but i need some information. I would like to start actually building a car either in the summer, or a year or two from now. But before i get into that i am going to ask about school.
School:
should i take Earth Science or Biology? What subject would prepare me better for all of this.
i am in algebra one and take geometry next year
i have wood chop next marking period and we build an air car (tiny compressed air though)
Should i go to a new jersey vocational school in the future?
what should i Base my classes and electives around?
any good colleges after high school (thinking ahead)
I also would like some incite on your experiences with electric cars, any thing is good.
The actual cars now.
first, am i to young to start this journey?
is this a good thing to do and am i going to enjoy it?
now about this car again…
material: titanium body and plastic roof
titanium is stronger than steal but lighter than aluminum
plastic roof will be explained faster
(is titanium too expensive? an alternatives?)
Speed: 40mph
(just for now but eventually i would progress)
windows :Plexiglas
(light and durable, super strong kind)
range: 20-30miles
(more is great but its a start)
mirrors, windshield wipers, up and down windows, fits at least two people, doors, small front that doesn’t extend out like i.c.e. cars, just simple for now but it will progress as i get older and more intelligent. and we need a radio
parts being used:
building a motor and system is a lot of work, time, and money. So i figured that i could buy a commercial one.
wheels, not too heavy but not too ugly
solar cells on top of the car that feed electricity to the batteries, evergreen
batteries? any idea what is readily available and cheap?
budget? what should my budget be?
motor and axel? and ideas?
this needs a lot more work as you can see, but i am determined to create a street legal electric car. I was looking around for solar ev’s and came across this one. should i buy this kit and transform it into what i could see? this comes with most of what i need.
http://www.sunnev.com/
please share your incite, i do have a few more plans for this car, but they are very complex. email me if you would like to talk or shed some light on the situation.
WOULD THIS WORK?
would my idea work or would it way the car down too much adn make it slow and heavy?
the car creates its own energy like the Chevy volt but does not give off pollution.
Using the Faraday effect, i would turn the axle into a generator. The axel would be magnetic or made with magnets and a large spoil of wire would be placed around it. as you drive and the axle spins that spins the magnets, this could potentially charge the batteries.
^^^^^would this work? too heavy? to small? not enough energy?
Thank you for your time and thanks for reading this!
i am serious and any good programs or books to use? and any educational things that i can use.
There’s no better way to learn about building EVs then to build one.
The best home built car in my opinion would have a polyurethane foam and fiberglass composite sandwich for body, and carbon fiber frame, with titanium where the moving components are joined. But that is little too ambitious for your first project.
For your first car you just want to get it built, don’t worry about making it perfect, you can modify it later on or move on to new projects.
Solar panels are also expensive. Here’s a good deal on an 80 watt panel.
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=66369
80 watts is a little more then 1/10 horsepower.
when you pedal your bicycle you’re probably averaging about 75 watts of power, and you average 15-20 mph. For short bursts you can get up to 300 or maybe 400 watts, but only for a very short period of time. Lance Armstrong can’t even produce much more then that, but his superior conditioning allows him to produce that power for long periods of time.
So if you make the vehicle light enough, that solar panel could move the car at an average speed of 10 mph. If you want to go any faster then that, the solar panel will just be there to extend the range. But I say scrap the solar panel, it’s too expensive and it complicates things and doesn’t really give you that much benefit.
Your axle generator idea is good thinking. Of course you should know it would take more power away from the wheels then it would put back. But that doesn’t mean you can’t use the idea. It’s called regenerative breaking. Any electric motor can also be an electric generator. For regenerative breaking, you need a controller that can reroute the power back into the batteries from the motor thus slowing down the car.
I would recommend starting with a rolling chassis and building your electrical components into it. Get yourself a used 4 wheeler, which you can pick up cheap because you don’t care if the engine runs, as long as the chassis, suspension and breaks are good. Then pick up the rest of what you need here:

I recommend the sevcon millipak controller because of it’s regenerative breaking capabilities, coupled whatever motor you like the best, I think the pmac is the best value at 48V. Then get a throttle and 4 12v batteries. It will all cost about $2000, and be a pretty kick ass electric vehicle.
But before you even do that, you can get a fully functional EV, out of the box, for $300 here:

For education, it sounds like you’re in to engineering. Don’t worry about vocational stuff unless it sounds like fun to you. Take your math and science classes and apply to whatever college you want.
