About the product
Power generation and distribution has been an indispensable factor in the progress of an economy, ranging from manufacturing, banking, media, health care, aviation, etc. Environmental pollution which leads to degradation or depletion of ozone layer is one of the major problem caused by the use of generator with fossil fuels. Increase in the cost of fossil fuel which has been one of the major prime movers in the internal combustion engine (ICE) has been noticed. This can be accounted for based on the rapid decrease in the level of oil well. Hence, there is need for development of a power generating set that will not make use fuel to produce voltage. This study deals with the design, construction and performance evaluation of 1000W (1KVA) fuelless power generating set to serve as an alternative source of energy. The materials used for the project work include d c motor, alternator, connecting shaft, coupling, 12V/75Ah battery, charging panel (Transformer, diode, and capacitor), and frame. The methods involved fabrication of a connecting rod with boring of a reasonable hole that was conveniently fitted into the DC motor with threaded hole for bolting. The crank casing of the alternator was inserted and the armature of the alternator was fixed. The generator frame was then constructed to provide support and rigidity. The diode was connected to green cables and capacitors to the yellow cable. The terminal of the DC motor was connected to the battery, with red cables to the mains as output. The machine consists of five different units; the power supply, conversion, control, output and charging units. The components parts includes 12V battery, D.C motor, alternator, connecting shaft, bolts and nuts, transformer, diode, and noise damper.
