Perceived Challenges in the Design and Construction of a Gravity-Based Generator and Assessment of Its Performance
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Energy
Abstract
The gravity-based generator is a renewable energy technology that employs the gravitational force to generate electrical energy. However, the efficiency and output of the generator can be affected by various factors. Despite the growing interest in this concept, there is a lack of comprehensive research on perceived challenges involving design and construction, as well as its performance based on design factors - heights and weights used. In addition, actual data on variations in perceived difficulties and performance are required. This study aimed to fill this gap by investigating gravity-based generators? perceived challenges and performance. It enables researchers, engineers, and innovators to develop effective strategies for improved efficiency and reliability of GPG. This research yielded valuable information on how to enhance and optimize the practical utilization of GPG. It quantified the perceived difficulties associated with the design and construction of GPG. It also established a direct correlation between the incorporation of weights into GPG and the resultant impact on both voltage and running time. The researchers suggest that future studies undertake a more in-depth analysis of specific challenges encountered in the construction of GPG?s and also innovate existing GPG designs to generate higher output for longer period of time.
