Final Year Project 1 Week 13

For week 13, do the chapter 3 Project Proposal which is methodology. This chapter contains block diagram, flowchart, work plan and budget.

METHODOLOGY

The main focus of this project is to obtain the desired of output result and develop electrical generator by using kinetic energy concept. In this project, the simulation and equation also will be presented. The project are consist of problems exist, solution of ideas and developing of ideas.

    Block Diagram

The block diagram above showed the flow whole how this project functions. Ramp arrangement will produce kinetic energy when vehicles tyres apply the pressure on the ramp, at the same it will turn gearbox. The gearbox functioning as to increase speeds and torque an alternator. Since an alternator need forces to produces electricity. An alternator as electrical energy, it produces electricity in dc. The step-up converter DC-to-DC power converter with an output voltage greater than its input voltage. Power for the boost converter can come from any suitable DC sources, such as batteries, solar panels, rectifiers and DC generators.  The charger circuit from DC-to-DC power converter and the battery at the same time. The battery is use as a backup power supply if there is no vehicle run over. Inverter is an electrical power converter that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). Then converted AC can be at any required voltage and frequency with the use of appropriate transformers, switching, and control circuits.
