Energy

Designed by Aluwha

Utilising technology to maximise the efficiency of solar panels.

Design Manifesto

1. Introduction and background  research 

  

The problem  right now is a big environmental problem in schools  and  homes is that too much  gas is being wasted or released into the environment. This is bad and we only have 40 to 50  years left of gas   until we run out  of gas

The science : During my research I found out that a typical school or community environment  usually wastes energy.

The technology solution: my chosen green technology is  called a solar tracker. It  helps solves this problem by getting more power form tracking and  not using the generator.

2 . aim and hypothesis 

Aim: to theoretically design and build a model of and describe a  on the roof  to help halve our school campus energy use or release of power solar  tracking.

 

2 hypothesis: If the school  campus theoretically installs my system then our total extra 300 to 450 kwh well be reduced because my solar tracker will make 25 % to 40 % more than  a solar panel

Hazard options: water leaks, flooding, tripping over equipment, electrical shocks form wires getting cut on sharp edges, breathing in bad bacteria form waste .

Stap 1 buy or build  a solar tracker and check how to put it and set up batteries and more  Pour a concrete pad

 

Stap 2 set up the diver  and give it power, Anchor the pole

Step 3 Connect the controller

 What material did you use to build  your non working physical model ?

1. 6V 100mA - 70 x 70 Solar Panels x 22. D2822A IC & IC Base3. 3.7V li-ion Battery & Holder4. Single Shaft BO Motor & Wheel 5. LDR X 2 6. 10K Resistor x 2 7. ON/OFF Push Button Switch 8. General Purpose Dot PCB9. Wires 10. Soldering Iron 11. Hot Glue Gun 12. Double Side Tape13. Thermocol 14. MDF Sheet

Energy transfers form  transfers form one place to another when heat or pressure moves through

It use the sun change when my system operates energy transforms  form the sun hits the solar tacker then it converts it in to a energy into power energy
