ABSTRACT
In this work, a battery aided
generator for electricity production was developed using the principle of
electromagnetic induction. A 3000 rpm D.C motor, powered by a 100A/12V Battery
transmits power to a 2kVA alternator. The rotating alternator generates
alternating current (A.C) which powers the appliances. In the same vein, some
current from the alternator finds its way back to the battery for re-charging
via a charging device which converts the remnant A.C to D.C. The generator does
not use any conventional fossil fuel for its operation. The system was designed
to eliminate the problem ofpower failure and incessant outages from the grid
electricity supply and its attendant high fuel cost, and reduce the effect of
gaseous emission pollution to the environment. From the performance evaluation
conducted on the machine, a design efficiency of 99.98% when fully loaded was
obtained, with a power factor of 1. The 0.02% reduction in the effective
efficiency ofthe system was attributed to heat losses generated by the
appliances when loaded. The test run during the evaluation was done twice to
ensure replicability in the efficiency ofthe machine.
