Project Name : Power Generation E- Novation
Theme Name : Energy Resource & Conservation
The exhibit features some non-convention methods of electricity generation. The first method is “piezoelectricity”. In this piezoelectric transducers are used to harness mechanical energy.
When someone walks over these tiles equipped with transducers, the crystals of quartz produced a potential difference which will be harmless. This technique can be used on floors, footpath etc.
The second method is salt solar power plant. In this molten salt is termed by melting sodium and Potassium Nitrate (60%; 40%) at 134o C and then heated by hilliest and mirrors by reflecting sun‟s light which is used to power steam turbines Nitrate produce electricity. Moreover molten salt can store heat up to 6-8 days thus electricity can be produced even in the absence of sunlight.
This set up may be planted in deserts.
The third method is vertical- axis – wind which is specially a designed turbine that can take wind from all direction and its design also eliminates the need of grass. Moreover we have attached it to electrolysis setup instead of battery because the minimum voltage required to charge the battery is very high but not in the case of electrolysis. Then hydrogen fuel cell is used to get electricity from H2andO2 obtained in the process.
