Project Name : Conversion of wind Energy to Electrical Energy
Theme Name : Transport & Communication
Scientific Principle Involved:
1. Conversion of wind Energy to Electrical Energy.
2. Working of D.C. Motor as a dynamo
Materials Used: Models of Different Heavy Vehicles, Cells, Turbine, Dc Motor, Rechargeable Battery
Working Investigation or Findings: Utilisation of Air Friction Produced by Running Vehicles for Producing Electricity.
Working and Investigation in Four Wheelers: In four wheelers speeding vehicles like cars, buses, racing cars etc, the installation of this model is highly preferable. The maximum speed and momentum of those vehicles helps in producing maximum power due to air friction. It also does not affect the aerodynamics of the vehicles rather support their motion.
Working of the Model in Aircrafts: This technique can be efficiently used in aircrafts like airplane, high speed jets etc which could convert huge amount of air friction to electrical energy. In those vehicles the amount of energy produced could be more than the thermal plants and hydro electric power plants and will be very useful for avoiding energy crisis.
Working of this Technique in Water Vehicles: This technique can be efficiently used in bullet trains, common trains etc to produce huge power. The amount of power produced in all these cases depends on the speed of the vehicle, weight of the turbine and the place where it is fixed.
Utility and Further Scope of the Project: The first and foremost use of the exhibit is power production. The exhibit can also be used to reduce the effect of air friction on heavy vehicles. The power stored in the rechargeable batteries can be used for various purposes within and outside the vehicle. It can also be a substitute of fuels in vehicles. It can be useful in maintaining better energy status.
Name of the School: Modern English School, Karaput (Odisha).
