Table of Content • Introduction to Basic Electricity • 1.1b & 1.2b Spark ignition systems • 1.3b Ignition Timing • 1.4b Electrical Systems
Introduction to basic Electricity • After studying this chapter you will know about: • Electrons & their flow • Electricity • Current, its flow & types • Voltage • Resistance • Ohm’s Law
Introduction to basic Electricity • Everything in the world is made of matter • Matter is anything that has mass (weight) and occupies space
Introduction to basic Electricity • All matter (solid, liquid & gas) have molecules • All molecules can be further divided into atoms • Each atom has a nucleus which contains: • Neutron (no charge) • Proton (positive charge) • Electron (negative charge)Moves around nucleus Inside Nucleus
Introduction to basic Electricity • Element • A chemical element is a pure chemical substance consisting of one type of atom O Cu
Introduction to basic Electricity • Compound • A chemical compound is a pure chemical substance consisting of two or more different elements CH4
Introduction to basic Electricity • Atom • Molecules Atom is the smallest particle into which an element or substance can be divided, without losing its property O
Introduction to basic Electricity • Atom Construction
Introduction to basic Electricity • Electrons • They have (–)ve charge • Free to move around nucleus, unlike protons and neutrons which are fixed in the center • (+)ve charge in the nucleus by proton attracts (–)ve electron • The closer, the stronger force of attraction
Introduction to basic Electricity • Simplest atom of hydrogen
Introduction to basic Electricity • Now lets see a more complex atom of copper
Introduction to basic Electricity • Copper • Most commonly used • Atomic number is 29 (i.e. 29 protons & 29 electrons) • 2, 8, 18, 1 electrons in 1st to 4th ring • Conductors have < 4 electrons in outer ring • Insulators have > 4 electrons in outer ring • Semi-conductors = 4 electrons in outer ring
Introduction to basic Electricity • Electron Flow • Electrons farther from the nucleus are loosely held • They start moving freely from atom to atom • They are also called free electrons • When atom looses electron, it gains another one from the adjacent atom
Introduction to basic Electricity • Current & Electricity • The directed flow of electron from one atom to another in a conductor • Measured in amperes (A) • Free electrons, unless directed, can not produce current
Introduction to basic Electricity • Current Flow • Conventional (we will study this type) • Positive to negative • Electron theory • Negative to positive
Introduction to basic Electricity • Current flow • Types • A.C • D.C
Introduction to basic Electricity • Voltage • A force that causes electrons to move in an electrical circuit • Also called • EMF (electromotive force) • Electrical pressure • Potential difference (Difference in potential between two points)
Introduction to basic Electricity • Resistance (Ohms) • Resistance restricts the flow of electric current. • Energy is used up as the voltage drives the current through the resistor • This energy appears as heat in the component.
Introduction to basic Electricity • Ohm’s Law
