Review on Free Piston Linear Alternator
Abstract: This study presents the development methodology of the Free-Piston Linear Alternator/Generator (FPLG). The FPLG is a free-piston combustion engine with an integrated linear generator. The engine can be used as a range-extending device in an electric vehicle. 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 engine to easily adjust the compression …
