INTRODUCTIONOF ELECTROMAGNETICBRAKE
• Eddy current brakes like conventional friction brakes, are responsible for slowing
down an object, such as rotating machinery, a moving train, or even a roller coaster.
• There are two basic types:
(1) Rotational
(2) Linear

MAIN COMPONENTS OF
ELECTROMAGNETIC BRAKING SYSTEM
• Wheel
• Electromagnet
• Axle
• DC Motor
• Chain
• Spockets
• Switch
• Supporting Frame
• Screws & Bolts
• Frame – It is used to support the whole system. It is made of Cast Iron.
• Battery – Rechargable battery is a one kind of electrical battery and it has electro mechanical
reaction to adjust so it is also called as secondary cell. It is used to start the motor with the help of
switch it is also used to store the electricity.
• DC Motor - An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical
energy into mechanical energy it is used to run the metal wheel.
• Wheel - Wheel gets in motion with the help of running motor. Both motor and
wheel connected with the help of connecting chain and sprocket.
• Electromagnet – an electro magnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic
field is produced by an electric current. The magnetic field disappears when the
current is turned off. Electromagnets usually consists of insulated wire wound into a
coil. A current through the wire creates a magnetic field which is concentrated in the
hole in the centre of the coil. The wire turns are often would around a magnetic core
we used electromagnet to stop the rotating wheel.
• Chain And Sprocket - Simply Chain and Sprocket is generally used to transmit
power from motor or any rotating device to shaft.

• Frame ( 20.4 inch) length & width
( 10 inch ) hight
• Switch (2)
INTRODUCTION OF EDDY
CURRENT
• Eddy currents are electric currents indused in conductor when
exposed to a charging magnetic field; due to relative motion of the
field source and conductor or due to variations of the field with time.
• This can cause a circulating flow of electrons, or current, within the
body of the conductor.
• These circulating eddies of current have inductance and thus induce
magnetic fields
HOWIT WORKS?
• During braking, the metal disc is exposed to a magnetic field from an electromagnet,
generating eddy currents in the disc.
• The magnetic interaction between the applied field and the eddy currents slow down the
rotating disc.
• The basic work of and electromagnetic brake is to reduce speed of the vehicle using
electromagnetic force to induce a mechanical frictional resistance within the metal wheel.
When the DC Power supply is given the dc motor, the metal wheel is rotated with the help of
chain sprocket in from of the electromagnet. When the braking is required the control the
switch is turned. So, the current or voltage is applied on the electromagnet . A magnetic
field is created by an energizing coil by the application of voltage or current. This coil
develop magnetic lines of flux between the metal disc thus attracting the armature to the
face of the metal disc so the metal wheel stop. When the control switch off the current or
voltage is removed from the brake the metal disc is free to rotate and hold the armature
winding of the electromagnet away from the disc.

MAGNETIC FORCE
• F = n x I x L x B sin𝜽 Weber
• F = magnetic force
• n = n is the number of bundles in a wire
• L = L is the current through the wire in amperes (A)
• B = B is the strength (Magnitude) of the magnetic field in tesla (T)
• 𝜽 = 𝜽 is the angle of bundles makes with the magnetic field in degrees
• The sin of 90° is 1, ( meaning the current is perpendicular to the magnetic field)
• L = 0.3 m
• n = 800
• I = 8AH
• 𝜽 = 90°
B = µ0 x I / 2R Tesla ----------(2)
µ0 = 4 x π x 10-7
R = R is the loop radius measured in meters (m).
C = 0.3m,
C = 2 πr
0.3 / 2 π = R
R = 0.05 m
On putting the value in equation 2nd
B = 4x π x 10-7 x 8 / 2x0.05
B = 0.00010048T
Putting the value of B in equation 1st
F = n x I x L x B sin𝜽

F = 0.1921 Weber
F = 0.1921 x 10000
F = 1929.21 Gauss

• Independent of wheel support..
• No noise or smell.
• There is no need to change brake olis regularly.
• There is no oil leakage.
• High brake forces at high speeds.
• It uses electromagnetic force and not mechanical force.

• Drawback of ordinary mechanical braking system can be over come by application
of electromagnetic brakes.
• It makes use of opposing tendency of eddy current.
