Production of
electrical energy
from mechanical sources
|
| |
|
| |
Introduction:
Mechanical
energy from nature such as wind and water currents and
waves can be converted to electrical energy. Mechanical
energy will first be transmitted to an electric
generator via shafts and gears. The electric generator
will then produce electricity. |

Project
description:
In this project you will
study different methods used to convert the mechanical energy to
electrical energy. You may also study the factors that affect
the efficiency of such conversions. You will also make an
electric generator. |
