    ABSTRACT:
    The shock absorber is used in automobiles to control dampers and improve
    the handling of the vehicle on the irregularities of the road. In a conventional
    shock absorber due to vibration, the energy generated in the shock absorber is
    the kinetic energy that gets dissipated in the form of heat which is waste and has
    no further use. The power generator electromagnetic suspension system is a
    system that converts vehicle bump generated linear motion and vibration, into
    electricity to be used in battery charging. This eliminates the damper as well as
    produces electricity. In this, the use of permanent shock absorber, this energy is
    wasted in the form of heat. The Electromagnetic Suspension system is capable of
    providing a smoother ride compare to any other suspension system.

    KEYWORDS: Copper coil, Electromagnetic Shock Absorber, Magnets, Shock


    Absorber, Battery.
    INTRODUCTION:
    SUSPENSION:

    The work of a suspension is to


    provide comfort to the cabin, make sure the
    car stays in contact with the ground and that
    the driver has control over the tires at all points
    which is just achieved by having contact with
    the road.

    We all now the basic suspension is spring,


    how much the load applied on spring it
    rebounds with same load i.e, Damping is not
    possible in spring. K=Force(F)/Displacement(X)
      Where,
    K=Stiffness of the spring
    SHOCK ABSORBER:
    If springs are used in a suspension then that won’t give a good ride rather will vibrate
    you inside to dampen this vibration we use shock absorber.

    Keeps the suspension from continuing to bounce after spring


    compression and extension.

    Limits spring compression-extension movements


    to smooth the vehicle’s ride.

    • Without shock absorbers, the vehicle would continue


    to bounce up and down.

    • Shock Absorber is a mechanical device used


    absorbing the energy of sudden
    impulses or shock in machinery or Structure.
    • It is also known as Damper.
    CLASSIFICATION OF
    SUSPENSION SYSTEM:
    ACTIVE SUSPENSION

    SUSPENSION SYSTEM SEMI-ACTIVE SUSPENSION

    PASSIVE SUSPENSION
    PASSIVE SUSPENSION SYSTEM:
    Passive suspension system is commonly used in commercial passenger cars due to its
    market value. The damping force is tuned and fixed to a constant value.

    In general, the system is consisting of springs and single or twin-tube dampers.


    Generally softer damper provide better rider comfort, while stiffer damper achieve
    better stability. Thus, the damping force of the passive suspension system is tuned to
    its optimal condition which can successfully damp most road irregular input.

    ACTIVE SUSPENSION SYSTEM:


    Active suspension system applies external force from actuator to counter the
    vibration from ground to achieve excellent vibration migration

    However, active suspension system is only implemented for certain vehicles due to
    the matters on size, weight, power consumption, and price. Moreover, if the power is
    down on suspension system, the vehicle will experience zero damping force.
    SEMI-ACTIVE SUSPENSION SYSTEM:

    Semi-active suspension system utilizes the road input and provides better
    vibration isolation by changing damping force according to road profile.

    Semi-active suspension system takes the advantage of changing the damping


    force by external power when vehicle experience different road irregular inputs.

    For example, when the vehicle hits a bump, the sensor and micro-controller
    take the input signal and vary the damper characteristic to eliminate the
    vibration in a short period of time. The performance of semi-active suspension
    system is better than passive suspension system, especially response to sudden
    effects such as hitting a bump.

    Moreover, if the controller fails to its function, the semi-active suspension


    system still can perform as passive suspension system.

    Here, We are using Semi-Active type of suspension system for effective power
    generation through electro-magnetic process.
    LITERATURE REVIEW:
    1)Zhigang Fang and Xuexun Guo et.al. [2013] presented a new kind of shock absorber,
    hydraulic electromagnetic energy regenerative shock absorber (HESA), which can recover
    energy from vibration of vehicles. The road excitation frequency, load resistance and
    damping ratio are found to greatly affect the energy recovery of HESA

    Graph between Velocity and Power generated in


    Suspension.

    Class A is the best road and minimum vibration.


    Class D is the worst bumpist road with lot
    vibrations.

    When we use Electro-magnetic suspension we


    generated power and all the classes. In class D has
    more vibrations than Class A.

    Here, Class D will produce more power compare


    to Class A

     Electric car with Electro magnetic suspension produce 4% of power generation.

     Hybrid-Electric car with Electro Magnetic Suspension will produce around 6% of


    power generation.
    ELECTRO MAGNETIC SUSPENSION:
    Electro magnetic suspension(EMS) is the magnetic
    levitation of an object achieved by constantly altering
    the strength of magnetic field produced by
    electromagnets using a feedback loop.

    The power generation electromagnetic suspension


    system is a system that converts vehicle bump
    generated linear motion & vibration, into electricity to
    be used in battery charging this will help in reducing
    pollution. Power generation using electromagnetic
    suspension.

    • It is also called as magnetorheological


    dampers.

    “ rheology=Viscosity”
    Every automotive suspension has two goals: passenger comfort and vehicle control.
    Electromagnetic suspension is a system that converts vehicle bump into electrical energy.

    Its primary function is to reduce effects of vibrations and irregularities on roads. This is
    achieved with the help of shock absorbers that emit vibrational energy in the form of
    heat.

    This heat is the one that this project aims to harvest and convert into electrical power
    that can then charge the battery. This research proposes a design of a system where the
    heat lost in the suspension system and brakes combined is extracted, converted into a
    usable form of electrical energy which can charge batteries.

    Magnetic suspension system is mainly based on the property magnets that like poles of
    magnets repel each other. This characteristic of magnets is used for suspension work of
    system. This system also contains spring in between these two magnets to avoid direct
    contact of two magnets due to overloading. This system finds large number of applications
    in automobile industry.
    Electro Magnetic suspension can be tuned in any setting you want or in real
    time. It can be stiff or soft or acceleration sensitive or position sensitive
    dampers and it can also have many zones in position sensitive setting. So it can
    be everything of everything you want.
    Methodology:
     It is similar to Shock absorber but the piston is wounded with
    copper wires and Outer chamber is fixed with permanent
    magnets.

     When force is applied on the system the permanent magnets


    performs the motion between coil winding. This results in
    generation of magnetic flux due to which electric energy is
    obtained.
     This linear motion of the system uses a dense
    permanent magnet stack embedded on the
    small diameter inner chamber and coil winded
    on pipe having larger diameter.

     This generated power is stored in batteries for


    in either electric or hybrid electric vehicles.
    Since the coil produce alternating current it can
    be directly used with respect to certain
    condition.
     Fluid in EMS is basically an oil with fine iron particles.

     The electromagnetic suspension system turns all types of vehicle bumps into
    electricity, including linear motion and vibration. The energy is absorbed without
    being converted into electrical energy by the shock absorber enclosed within the
    casing and spring system. To generate electricity from this motion, the
    electromagnetic is applied.

     A metal shaft, spring, magnet coils, base with screws, and joints make up the
    shock absorber. Cylindrical supports are utilized to reduce friction and provide a
    smooth generation process. The spring is precisely fitted to obtain the
    appropriate motion and magnet overlap, allowing electricity to be generated
    using the electromagnetism principle.

     The electromagnetic suspension system is used to generate smart electricity.


    WHAT WE WANT TO DO
    TO IMPROVE EFFICIENCY:
     In semi-Active suspension system we
    generally use Ferrite or Alnico magnets
    but we are using Rare-earth magnets.

     Rare-earth magnets are strong


    permanent magnets made from alloys of
    rare-earth elements.

     They developed in the 1970s and 1980s,


    rare-earth magnets are the strongest
    type of permanent magnets made,
    producing significantly stronger
    magnetic fields than other types such as
    ferrite or alnico magnets.
    Why electromagnetic compare to
    shock absorber:
    • No heat generation to due friction.

    • Possible to implement in vehicle suspension with


    minimum design chances.

    • Linear design of electromagnetic energy


    harvesting system.

    • Power generation is more in electro magnetic


    suspension compare to shock absorber.
