Project Name : Magenn Air Rotor System
Theme Name : Energy Resource & Conservation
In this project we have shown the generation of electricity with the help of wind. We have used a balloon made of composite fabrics in which Helium gas is filled. We have used only Helium gas because it is an inert, non-inflammable and a light gas. The inert gas creates a
lighting force due to which the balloon moves in upward direction. When balloon reaches to a sufficient height, it gets sufficient wind due to which the turbine begins to rotate which is attached to the balloon. Due to rotation of turbine, the spinning shaft attached to it also
begins to spin due to which electricity is produced. The electricity produced is sent through conducting wires to transformers from where it is sent to power grid or is stored in batteries.
The transformer we have used is a step down transformer because the electricity produced at high altitudes is of variable potential, therefore to use the electricity we need to lower down its potential. This system is cheaper than windmill as it uses less land. It also removes all placement limitations and it can be stored anywhere.
