16 ~ 20 April 2012 (Week 13)

Title of Activity:

Project Progress.

• Analyze the output produce.
• Design a FYP poster.

Objective:

• Analyze the output from solar panel, thermoelectric module and wind turbine.
• Combine all and analysis the output result.
• Design a poster for the Engineering Day.

Content/Procedure:

• Measure the Solar panel output and analyze the output.
• Measure the Thermoelectric module output and analyze the output.
• Measure the Wind turbine output and analyze the output.

Result and Analysis:

As a result, when combining the 3 input (solar, thermoelectric and wind turbine) in series, there have a problems. The voltage will drop and this problem will affected the hybrid system to produce a electricity. When the outputs are measure, the voltage value is dropped to a small value.  And to counter this problem, there are some method to use for make sure the voltage will not drop so hugely. The input for the each part will connect with a diode (1N4007) in series, and after that the output for the each of the part will combine together.

This problems are happen because, the output from the combining circuit will returned back to the each of the part and that why the voltage are dropped to a small value. by using the diode, the output will not returning back to the each of the part. And the outputs for the combining circuit are produce in a huge amount.

The video below will show the output result after using the diode:

Conclusions:
           As a conclusion, the diode component is important to prevent the output to returning back. And the diode will connected in series for make sure the output voltage will not drop to many amount of it.
