I need 5 facts about Inertial Solar Engine?

Are you referring to the Sterling Engine? Have you done a Patent search? Go to USPTO.gov\nSolar powered engines have been designed to work with the principle advantage of thermodynamics and or electrical generation. I really would not assume that your concept of solar power is inclusive of one or the other.

How Does the Windmill Work?\n\nWind Energy\nWind is an indirect source of solar energy. It is caused by the uneven heating of the earth by the sun and the resulting redistribution of air to equalize energy in the atmosphere moving air from areas of high pressure to areas of lower pressure. The energy of the wind is transferred to the windmill’s sails where it is harnessed to perform work.\n\nThe cap of the windmill is turned with the winch attached to the bottom of the tail pole until the sails face the direction of the wind. Depending on the wind speed, wind boards are installed on the leading edge of the sails and canvas sail-cloths are unfurled across the sail-frames. The Miller climbs the sail-frame using the sail-bars like rungs of a ladder attaching the canvas to the cleats on the whip. High winds require less open sail than low wind. The Miller determines the amount of sail surface required based on wind speed and partially furls (reefs) the sails as required. The sails catch the wind and turn the wind-shaft.\n\nThe wind-shaft which is connected to the brake-wheel can be stopped with the brake which consists of a band of friction blocks encircling the brake-wheel attached to the brake lever and controlled via a rope near the tail pole attached to the brake lever. The turning brake-wheel turns the wallower connected to the upright shaft on the fifth level. A wood wheel on the fourth level is used to adjust any irregular spinning of the upright shaft.\n\nThe upright shaft is connected to a large gear called the spur-wheel on the third level. Power to run many things in the windmill is drawn from this wheel. Two stone-nuts turned by the spur-wheel drive quant shafts in turn rotating the runner stones; the top stones of the grinding stone pairs. The lower stone of the grinder is the bedstone; it remains stationary. The spur-wheel also turns a third lantern gear (trundle) to drive power transfer belts, pulleys and shafts used to operate the grain elevators, sifters, grain separator, corn sheller and a vacuum system.\n\nHow is Grain Ground into Flour?\nGrain and flour move through the system using grain elevators and gravity. Grain is carried into the windmill and poured into first level hoppers. From there it is cleaned in the basement with the corn sheller and grain separator. Grain elevators carry cleaned grain to the third level hoppers which hold it until it is dropped into the second level grinders. Corn & oats are ground in the west grinder and dropped into a ceiling mounted sifter on the first level. Wheat & rye are ground in the east grinder. The flour drops into an elevator at the ceiling of the first level, is carried back up to a hopper on the third level and dropped into the sifter on the second level. The sifted flour is stored in hoppers suspended from the ceiling on the first level.\n\nInteresting Notes\nThe windmill contains two scales; a floor scale in the windmill and a wagon scale outside the north end of the windmill. The scale inside the windmill can weigh individual bags of grain. The scale outside is used for weighing loaded and unloaded wagons.

1- An isolated closed pressured gap inside earth caused organic materials to transform and produce oil and gas form\n2- Fire force internal gases to come out to produce more fire and heat\n3-Keeping heat and cool inside your home\n4- Either vapor or electrons\n5- The term "photovoltaic" comes from the Greek phos meaning "light", and the name of the Italian physicist Volta, after whom the volt (and consequently voltage) are named. It means literally of light and electricity.\nThe photovoltaic effect was first recognised in 1839 by French physicist Alexandre-Edmond Becquerel. However it was not until 1883 that the first solar cell was built, by Charles Fritts, who coated the semiconductor selenium with an extremely thin layer of gold to form the junctions. The device was only around 1% efficient. Russell Ohl patented the modern solar cell in 1946 (US2402662, "Light sensitive device"). Sven Ason Berglund had a prior patent concerning methods of increasing the capacity of photosensitive cells.

Wow. Your classmate just asked this question. But here's your answer anyways...\n\nThere are a few things to keep in mind here: all of the energy in the initial system is rotational, and the initial energy is equal to the energy lost to friction. Also note that the energy is lost to friction at a constant rate.\n\n(a) The initial energy of the system is:\n\nE = (1/2) * I * w²\n\nWhere I is the moment of inertia and w is the angular velocity. The power transferred from the system due to friction is equal to the time derivative of the energy loss:\n\nP = dE/dt = I * w * a\n\nwhere a is the angular decceleration.\n\nSince the power is transferred at a constant rate and removes all of the energy from the system, we can take this as:\n\nP = -E/t (negative sign denotes power loss)\n\nCombining the power equations yields:\n\nI * w * a = -E/t\n\nSolving for a:\n\na = -E / (I * w * t)\n\nFinally, substitute the expression for E to obtain:\n\na = -I * w² / (I * w * t)\n\na = -w/(t)\n\nSubstituting the values yields:\n\na = -(150 rev/min * 2*pi rad/rev * 1/60 min/sec)/(2.2 hr * 3600 sec/hr)\n\na = -(15.71 rad/s)/(7920 s)\n\na = -.001983 rad/s²\n\n(b) The rotational behavior of the fly wheel can be modeled as simply:\n\nR(t) = -1/2*a*t² + w*t + Ri\n\nwhere R(t) is measured in radians and Ri is the initial angular displacement. Assuming that Ri = 0 (we'll measure the number of rotations from its initial position), then the flywheel will revolve:\n\nR(t) = -1/2*a*t² + w*t (radians)\n\nR(t) = (-1/2*a*t² + w*t)/(2 * pi) (revolutions)\n\nSubtituting the values:\n\nR(2.2 hr) = R(7920 s) = (-.5*.001983*(7920 s)² + (15.71 rad/s)(7920 s))/(2*pi)\n\nR = 9900 revolutions\n\n(c) The tangential component of the linear acceleration of a point on a rotating body is given as:\n\nA-tangent = a * r\n\nwhere A = linear acceleration. The angular acceleration is constant, so for all w (including w=75 rev/min), the linear acceleration will also be constant. Thus:\n\nA-tangent = (-.001983 rad/s²)(.5 m)\n\nA-tangent = -9.915 x 10^(-4) m/s²\n\nA-tangent = -0.9915 mm/s²\n\n(d) The magnitude of the net linear acceleration on the particle is composed of a tangential and a normal component. The equation is of the form:\n\nAnet = [ (A-tangent)² + (A-normal)² ]^(1/2)\n\nOr:\n\nAnet = [ (a*r)² + (v-tangent²/r)² ]^(1/2)\n\nNote that the tangential velocity is given by:\n\nv-tangent = w * r\n\nThus, the magnitude of net linear acceleration is:\n\nAnet = [ (a * r)² + (w² * r)² ]^(1/2)\n\nSubstituting the known values yields (note that for this case, the angular velocity of 75 rev/min is equal to 7.854 rad/s):\n\nAnet = [ (-.001983 * .5)² + (7.85² * .5)² ]^(1/2)\n\nAnet = 30.81 m/s²\n\nFINAL ANSWERS:\n\n(a) a = -.001983 rad/s²\n(b) R = 9900 revolutions\n(c) A-tangent = -0.9915 mm/s²\n(d) Anet = 30.81 m/s²
