Introduction:
Is anyone happy with current situation of electricity in India?
So, this is our small step to try to improve this situation by our project.
First of all what does electricity mean to us?
Electricity- secondary source of energy i.e. converted from other sources.
We need it for every small thing, still notice it’s importance only during load shedding.
Scope, Merits and Uses
Low Budget electricity production
Less floor area
No obstruction to traffic
Easy maintenance
Suitable at parking of multiplexes, malls, toll booths, signals, etc.
Uses: Charging batteries and using them to light up the streets, etc.
BASIC PRINCIPLE:
Simple energy conversion from Mechanical to Electrical.
To generate electricity using the vehicle weight (potential energy) as input
Possible using 3 different mechanisms:
Crank-shaft mechanism
Roller mechanism
Rack- Pinion mechanism
Construction of generator:
Initial experiments- DC motor as Generator
How is electricity generated?
Basic principle of generation of electricity.
