• As seen in the given diagram the cooling agents absorb heat and maintain a constant heat flow to the 2nd loop of water which converts to steam and hits the turbine which causes rotation of the turbine. The turbine rotates an alternator which causes rotation in the generator causing electricity to be generated.
• Some of the steam will be taken out through valves and inlets and stored.
This stored steam can be used for thrusters and also as a water source. If a loss of water occurs then this stored steam using a condenser will be converted to liquous
State and can be used as a supplement.

Hence when a photon hits the cell the electrons are easily displaced from the silicon.
• Iron has a high temperature conductance and is a metal which easily available. Hence when the sun’s rays hits the cell, the electron’s kinetic energy increases which allows faster transport of electrons and increased vibrations.
Torus solar covering- the sun’s rays can easily travel through space as there is no air resistance. This means that each and every solar cell that we will get a constant supply of light from the sun. the solar cells play an vital role as the iron in the cells help in more heat absorption.
The residential torus and the agricultural torus – the cells used here are different as the silicon iron ratio is now 60:40. We have done this because the energy consumption in the residential and agricultural toruses are less then the other components of the craft.
Peltier effect- this system consists of specifically placed mirrors and dense laser beams. These mirrors guide these beams to a specific point. On contact this point of convergence heats up which can be used for inducing peltier effect by placing 2 conductors separated by a heat conducting

The TEG’s will be placed with one end on the surface of the craft and the other end inside the craft whose heat source will be nuclear waste generated by it reactor. On the settlement it will be used in the same way hence being a valuable energy source. Hence in space exploration TEG’S are the technology to be used.
Gravity induced process flow: in the 4 torii there is a connector tube b/w them. When water supply is initiated it will flow in the torii it will first go to the 1st torii then to the 2nd torii and goes on till it reaches the 4th torii. This water will be sent through tubes or pipes starting from the reservoir. The tube is fitted with turbines which will rotate an alternator which in turn rotates the generator and produces electricty. To avoid metal particles mixing in water fine sieves will be placed at the valves of each torii ensuring clean water supply.

Fun and Functional Fitness: The soccer balls will generate and store energy as the players kick, then providing energy at home. Fifteen minutes on the field will capture enough energy to power a small light for 3 hours. It will be utilized as an efficient phone charger for the
Hydropower dates way back to two thousand years ago, the first culture recorded in history to find use of water other than drinking and sailing were the Greeks. They have created a water wheel as a method of using water to grind down wheat into flour. In the time of 202 B.C and 9 A.D, the Han Dynasty, water power was used to break ore and was used for paper-making. For over a thousand years no one has constructed a new use for water power. Until in 1712, Thomas Newcomen from england developed the first steam engine.
It used up a lot of coal that was burned in a firebox to heat it and get the steam running so it starts
The machine first receives the high energy electromagnetic wave from the Sun (in this case, its X-ray and UV) and has it colliding with a free electron. Then, the photon transfers some of its energy to the free electron. Therefore, the photo becomes less harmful and since the energy goes into increasing the electron’s kinetic energy which then generates electricity.
It uses flowing water to generate electricity. It does this by using dams and reservoirs for storage. This method gives us the most electricity rather than any other renewable energy source. Not only do the dams and reservoirs create electricity, they also control flooding (Sambu). Hydropower is the least expensive procedure to generate electricity.
With The motion of the turbines, the mechanical energy is then harnessed into electrical energy from the generator in the dam. Kentucky has three hydro-powered dams since 2014 so this means that Kentucky already has experience in this for of
This coil has an electrical resistor which resists the flow of electricity, which in effect converts electrical energy into heat as energy goes through the coil. Due to this, the heat energy produced by the resistor heats up the water within the kettle to boiling point. The heating element is controlled by a bimetallic thermostat, which contains a variable resistor inside it. Integrated at the bottom of the kettle, it consists of a disc of two different metals bonded tightly together, curved in a particular direction. As temperature inside the kettle rises, one metal expands faster than the other, set up in a manner
Ladies and Gentlemen, it is a great honor to stand before you to address the issue that most of our colleagues confront. Many people spend more money on drugs for healthy purposes whilst most of this drugs have short or long time side effect. So how can one be healthy without side effects? Soccer is the answer to our health challenges. Research has shown that more than thirteen million people participate in soccer and that includes women and children.
Back then, if someone said that the world could be powered only by the sun, they would be mocked by their peers. However, this is not the case anymore. Solar power has been increasing exponentially in the past few years as industries begin to focus on it. Many countries still focus on using fossil fuels as their main source of energy, such as the United States. But what will happen when fossil fuels begin to dwindle?
When contrasting proven methods for the creation of energy, wind power stands out definitively as effective and clean for the environment. However, placing wind turbines in strategic locations to maximize the device 's use excludes many regions. Areas without continually strong wind may by consistently sun, therefore, would alternatively use solar panels instead. Regions with many river would presumably favor underwater turbines rather than wind.
Flexible plastics are used for fabrication of the heat transfer tubes; PVC and silicone are some common materials used for this (John C. Chato). When considering the heat transfer characteristics, higher diameter pipes are preferred. Because they provide high heat transfer area and allow high refrigerant flow rates at low pumping heads. But usage of tubes with larger diameter increases the rigidity of the kit which is undesirable for convenient movement of the wearer.
Mathias Aarre Maehlum shows that hydrological power is the safest kind of renewable energy powering cities. • Hydroelectric is the cheapest form of natural energy after
wind energy and solar energy are both renewable types of energy they create no pollution and are fully sustainable as they are both powered by natural sources and if there is no wind one day the solar panels can generate energy and if it 's cloudy another day the windmills can generate energy also the energy created during the summer can be sold to the grid for extra capital that can be used for field trips, renovations, etc. Geothermal heating systems are rated the most efficient and eco-friendly heating systems. The system works using buried coils that contain a liquid, typically a mix of water and antifreeze. The liquid is warmed to the same temperature as the earth and then runs through to the home where a compressor extracts the heat but not only that geothermal heating requires no fossil fuels so it is very eco-friendly LED lighting is an efficient and eco friendly lighting alternative because they waste much less energy in converting to light compare to incandescent lights which waste 90% of the energy to convert to heat not only that LED lights last up to 15-25 times longer that traditional light bulbs this makes LED a much better source of lights than others because it wastes less energy and it is more efficient at doing its job this is so much better for the environment because it uses less energy that other lighting sources
Solar Power shows the most potential as a form of Renewable Energy. It's also flexible enough to be used for very small personal tasks, or as the power source for a large Electrical Power Plant. One of its many good points is that, it does not require an infrastructure to be functional. As a homeowner, you should have a basic understanding of this solar technology, so you can make intelligent decisions about how you may use it. Solar Power can be made complicated and expensive, yet it does not have to be either of these.
There are many pros of solar energy, but there are cons too. Most people believe that solar energy is amazing because it prevents pollution and using up of fossil fuels. There is also a history to it, The French physicist Antoine Cesar Becquerel researched the solar panel, in 1839. Charles Fritts created the very first solar panel, who used junctions that were created when the semiconductor was coated by a very thin layer of gold. The earliest solar cells and panels that were created were useless and the energy received from the sun stood under 1%.
Some natural resources, such as fossil fuels and natural gas are running dangerously low and could be used up in less than 40 years from now. (Howstuffswork.com) Time is running out to find a more cleaner, and reusable energy source. However, what people don’t know is, we may already have that answer lying beneath our feet, geothermal energy. The prefix "geo-" means earth and the root "thermal" means heat. Geothermal power plants use the heat radiating from the center of the Earth to generate electricity and, in Iceland, to heat the entire cities.(National Energy Authority of Iceland (NEA).com)
