WEEK 9 - Purchased Components (Electrical's Part)

• After done listing all the components needed, this week I decided went to Jalan Pasar again for searching and buying the components.
• Lucky me because all the components that been listed:

1. relay
2. rechargeable battery
3. toogle switch
4. transformer
5. LED
6. capacitor
7. resistor
8. voltage regulator
9. 555 timer
10. transistor
11. preset resistor
12. PCB board
13. ect....

          are founded and available at Jalan Pasar and easy for me to purchase.

WEEK 8 - Research On Components (Electrical's Part)

• After been doing research on the circuit that want to use for this project on last week, i had listed the component that needed for construct the circuit.
• The circuit needed for this Mini Hydroelectric Generator is the 'Inverter Circuit', 'Charging Controller Circuit' and 1 unit transformer.

Charging Controller Circuit

Inverter Circuit

• The components been listed and needed base on figure of circuit above:

1. relay
2. rechargeable battery
3. toogle switch
4. transformer
5. LED
6. capacitor
7. resistor
8. voltage regulator
9. 555 timer
10. transistor
11. preset resistor
12. ect....

WEEK 7 - Research On The Circuit

• After done about 60% progression of mechanical's part, I think I should do more focus on my electrical's part.
• Starting with do some research on the circuit that been needed for making an electrical's part.
• From my research, to operate my project starting water flow for rotating turbine, then to the output 240V, it need 3 stage of circuit. 
• 1st stage, from turbine, it will generate the motor to produce 12V of DC current, to charging the battery. At that stage, the circuit needed is 'Charging Controller Circuit'.
• 2nd stage, from the 12V DC current output of battery, it need to convert to AC current. This stage, the 'Inverter Circuit' needed to convert DC-AC.
• 3rd stage is about to increase the value of AC current to be an output of 240V. So it need the transformers.

WEEK 6 - Designing The Mechanical's Part

• After done designed turbine in previous week, this week I focus to designing mechanical's part.
• Mechanical's part included tank for water storage, turbine that being connected to motor thru spocket and chain.

Mechanical's Part Of Mini Hydroelectric Turbine.

WEEK 5 - Designing Turbine

• One of the most important part in my project is turbine.
• The rotation or turbine will generate the motor for produce the current.
• the design of the turbine is base on the sample that I been research.

Pelton Turbine

• Base on ideology of pelton turbine, i had designed turbine by my own way using hexagon block and spoon as a blade.
• The turbine as shown in picture below.

WEEK 4 - Purchased Components (Mechanical's Part)

• Looking for components at Jalan Pasar.
• Components use is the important thing to make circuit or project operate.
• Selection of main component should have in a market because some component needs to order from other company such as bearing type 'pillow block'. Only certain shops have it.
• So by listing all the components used first will make easy to find and design the project

WEEK 3 - Research On The Components (Mechanical's Part)

• Starting doing research on the components that being used in my project...
• My project "Mini Hydroelectric Generator" is about how the water energy can produce an electricity.
• So for build on my project, there's got 2 part, which is Mechanical's Part & Electrical's Part.
• For this week, I need to focus on part of mechanical.
• List of components:

1. spoon
2. aquarium tank
3. 'L' aluminium
4. sprocket (2 sizes)
5. bearing (variety sizes)
6. chain
7. screw and nuts
8. cylinder rod
