IRJET- Energy Generation on Modified Highway Roads by using Roller Mechanism
0 likes5 views
This document discusses a system to generate electricity from vehicles driving on highways. Rollers would be installed on the road and connected via gearing to a dynamo. As vehicles pass over the rollers, the rotation of the rollers would turn the dynamo to generate electricity. Calculations were done to determine the power generated based on vehicle speed, weight, and number passing per minute. It was determined that 11.5W and 13W could be generated for vehicle speeds of 80 km/hr and higher. The goal is to tap into the energy from road transportation and utilize it through storage in batteries.

Thousands of vehicles pass daily on highways so we can generate specific amount of electricity by this system. Key Words: highway, electricity, roller. 1.INTRODUCTION In this paper we have discussed about energy generation on highways by roller mechanism as vehicle passes by onroller installed on roads. So, specified amount of energy can be generated. Some points are discussed below 1.1 Related Highway Engineering Road transportation energy can be produced, stored, where the ramp is used for tapping energy and generating power. Table -1: Width of Roadways 2. Working We have used malleable cast iron roller,beltandpulleydrive, dynamo, rack and pinion, shaft, battery etc. As number of vehicles pass with somevelocityonrollersinstalledonroads, the rollers will rotatewith specific RPM as mentioned below. Those rollers are connected to rack and pinion which are mounted on shaft which is connected to dynamo through worm and worm gear. The generated power will be storedto battery setup and this stored energy will be utilized for further use.
