Rain as an alternative Energy Rain as an alternative Energy By School Pride Project
Motivation and Objectives Motivation and Objectives Motivation : • World need alternative resources of energy • Rain is one of the potential phenomena that can be converted into energy : converted into energy : – Rain drops Æ vibration Æ piezoelectric Æ energy [reference] – Rain drops Æ R i d Æ harvest Æ h t Æ rotate turbine Æ t t t bi Æ energy (much ( h simpler to implement)
Objectives : • Design a prototype • Design a way of implementation to the community Design a way of implementation to the community

How to implement Rain Harvesting Energy to the community rooff Pipe at the edge of the roof Water reservoir on top of a tower house turbine Water reservoir below turbine
1. Gather the water into a reservoir on top of a tower 2. Water can be collected through the pipes at the edge of the roof (see figure )) • That will be even better if we can direct all the pipes into this reservoir! 3. Below the turbine we can have another reservoir, so we can make use the Below the turbine we can have another reservoir, so we can make use the water for something else (washing etc)
