ABSTRACT—
This paper tries to present new way to
generate Electricity by using existing technology along with daily usable small
physical material components by applying basic science laws and formulae.
IndexTerms—Electricity,Faraday’s law, magnet, copper
coil.
I. Introduction.
Electricity
is the greatest gift of science to mankind.
Electricity is a source of energy. It is
produced by battery or a coil of wires. Electricity generation is the process
of creating electricity from other forms. Basically electricity is generated by
the movement of a loop of wire or disc of copper between
the poles of a magnet.
To
provide the large amounts of steady power demanded by modern societies, large
power plants have been built. Most power plants make electricity with a machine
called a generator.
Generators use the principle of electro-magnetic
induction, which exploits the relation between magnetism and electricity.
In
this paper we use same principle for electricity generation but we use small
scale electricity generator which help to light up small bulbs.
II.IDEA TO GENERATE
ELECTRICITY
Our idea is based on
generating electricity by converting mechanical energy to electrical energy.
Actually our idea is
“when we writing on paper using a
pen the motion of pen will produce some
amount of energy which we can convert this energy into electrical energy”
III.
HOW ELECTRICITY WILL GENERATE
We
use Faraday's law of induction to generate electricity.
Faraday's
law of induction is a basic law of electromagnetism predicting how a magnetic
field will interact with an electric circuit to produce an Electromotive Force
a phenomenon called electromagnetic induction. It is the fundamental operating
principle of transforms, inductors and many types of electrical motors.
Following figure will represent our
idea by using Faraday's Law
Fig. 1 Electricity Generator Pen model.
In the above figure we use simple ball pen. We
place magnetic balls inside the thin copper coil mesh in such a way that balls
can move around the mesh. We place this copper coil mesh along with magnetic
balls inside the pen.
When
we start to write using this pen the magnetic balls inside the copper coil mesh
starts to move around the mesh. This will generate some amount of electricity
because of electromagnetic induction.
Electric
power which is generated during this process will transfer through wires
connected to copper mesh to battery which connected at the end of pen.
IV.HOW
MUCH ELECTRICITY CAN BE GENERATING
The
amount of electricity generated can be calculate based on following formula.
The voltage generated by a magnet and a coil is given by
Electric
power=Number of turns in coil ×Rate of change of flux with respect to time
The
flux of interest is the flux that goes through the coil.Ball shaped coil which
contains ball shaped magnets will generate high voltage if thickness of coil
increased we can get more voltage. The magnet strength also affects the
voltage.
V.BATTERY TECHNOLOGY
After
implementing our Electricity Generator Pen we need to store that electric power
in battery. Generally people thinks it’s not possible to charge the battery by
writing one or two minutes.
Now
a days battery technology improved lot .mobile batteries uses less amount of energy but stores and uses
that energy longer time. Lot of researches are going on battery technology. New
batteries are developed now a days which can charged in 10 to 20 seconds and
can be used for many hours.
Hence
this future technology will help to improve our model.
VI.ADVANTAGES
OF EGP
·
Easy to implement.
·
Less cost
·
More efficient
·
Less time consumption
·
Smaller in size.
·
No need of secondary source to generate
electricity.
·
Generate electricity anywhere and anytime
1. If a
man lost in forest or desert he can use EGP to light up a small bulb and try to
find a path to safe place.
2. Soldiers
who working in borders can use EGP to light up a bulb in cold weather also.
3. Students
who are in village suffer from electricity problem during rainy season they can
use EGP which will help to light up a bulb to read a text from text books.
VIII.FUTURE ENHANCEMENT
1) In beginning stage we used normal magnetic
balls inside the pen to increase the speed of movement of magnetic balls we can
use nano particles which comes under nanotechnology it help us to produce more
electric power using less physical energy.
2)
In beginning stage EGP uses normal papers for writing but in future we can
design a metal paper which can be wrapped around pen and can removed when we
need to generate electricity after we can wrap around the pen
this will save trees
