Unlike conventional internal combustion engines, a free-piston linear engine has no a
crankshaft, and thus the pistons move freely in the cylinder. This allows a free-piston linear …

The free piston engine linear generator (FPELG) is a simple structure engine with only two
main parts, ie, the linear generator and a free piston engine, which has less friction, low …

Introduction. Internal combustion engine technology has been considered for the alternator
system in the last two decades. Especially when considering fuel diversity, reliability …

Free piston generators are of interest due to their efficiency, compact construction,
homogeneous nature, and multiple options for combustion. Much of the research into this …

A tubular flux‐switching permanent‐magnet linear machine (PMLM), which features unified
magnetic field between the mover and two stators, is investigated for free‐piston energy …

As the demand for greener and more energy efficient vehicles continues to rise, more
energy recuperation systems found their applications on the car which was never been used …

In a free piston linear generator (FPLG), a free piston engine drives a linear electrical
generator to produce electrical power. In this chapter, different parameters of an FPLG are …

Permanent magnet linear generator is a type of generator that uses linear motion to
generate power, it uses permanent magnets to create a magnetic field, motion of the …

Free-piston linear generator (FPLG) is regarded as a promising power generator system for
hybrid electric vehicle. The core component of FPLG, linear motor, requires careful design to …

Linear motors and alternators with reciprocating mover are theoretically known for a long
time, but in last 10-15 years one can find several new practical applications of such …
