Abstract

As today’s world is completely dependent on different types of energies and these energies are going to disappear or exhaust one or the other day so we need to use free energy to run our basic appliances which require electricity for its working. So there is a dire need to find new sources of energy. Most people do not realize that there is a lot of energy that is formed around them all the time. The purpose of this project is to show that the ambient energy in the surroundings can be utilized to generate electricity. In this project, the energy used to open a revolving door is being converted into electrical energy with the help of gears and generator. Further, this electrical energy can be regulated according to the load requirement. Accordingly, a revolving door prototype is designed, fabricated and tested. This prototype can be further optimized in terms of size to generate more electrical energy..

Keywords

Energy harvesting, free energy, prototype, revolving door.
