week 28

video: testing and simulation of wind energy trainer
above shows the testing for wind energy trainer operation and the measuring output voltage .The fan acts as a wind to blow and spin the wind turbine . The output were shown in the red panel meter box.

week 27

video:testing and simulation of solar energy trainer
above shows the testing for solar energy trainer operation and the measuring output voltage . The heat lamp as sun thst replace the sunlight array to heat and give light to solar pv . The output were shown in the red panel meter box.

week 26

video:testing and simulation of hydro energy trainer

above shows the testing for hydro energy trainer operation and the measuring output voltage and current. The water were pump as as a water pressure to spin the turbine. The output were shown in the red panel meter box.

week 25

Figure 1: measured supply for the renewable energy trainer

Vin = 12v

Iin = 0.95A

Figure 2: testing the panel meter box for solar output

Figure 3: latest technology of panel meter was use to get the exact input reading of voltage, current, energy and power. 

week 24

Figure 1: Green LED was install as an indicator 

Figure 2: construct the panel box for reading output of the three renewable energy wind,solar and hydro.

VIDEO : digital panel meter

week 23

Figure 1: The design of wind turbine with replaced source using 12v fan.

week 22

Figure 1: construct the Pv Solar panel station with replaced source of 12v heat lamp.

week 21

Figure 1: construct the hydro turbine model

Figure 2: The blade for hydro turbine was install inside, this will make it easier to spin according to the speed adjusted for water pressure. 12 Vdc motor was install at the outside of the case to prevent it to be exposed to water splash.

VIDEO: the design of hydro turbine are followed in the video as the reference.
