Free Energy Systems

The earth is becoming full of non biodegradable things .If those things are put to use for a good purpose then it will be wonderful. The home made turbines will prove cast effective and will provide good amount of electricity .Since the wind turbine is prepared from the recycled waste therefore it saves money and reduces home electric bill. Again the wind turbine reduces global warming. It needs minimum knowledge about how to connect batteries or home breaker panel .This can be easily prepared by using inexpensive PVC and some other tools.

Difficulty - it is moderately easy one.

Time - It will take at least 2 days time for being fully prepared.

Things that will be needed are measuring tape, protector, pencil, jigsaw, straight edge and 8 inch PVC pipe 2 ft

Method

1. Straight edge is needed to be placed against the tubing and a line has to be drawn along 2 feet of PVC tubing.


2. With the help of the protector measure 75 degrees around the tubing from the justly drawn straight line. Then mark a point there. From the point use the straight edge and draw another straight line along the tubing


3. The second step has to be repeatedly drawn in order to have five lines of PVC. Four 75 degree one 60 degree section have got and the 60 degree is leftover in 360 degree circle.


4. In order to draw five PVC strips the cut has to be made along the drawn lines. There should be four strips of 145 mm and one strip which is 115 mm wide.the smaller one can be discarded.


5. The PVC section has to be placed on a flat surface with the inside curve facing downward. A point has to be marked at the bottom end of 115 mm from the left edge. Then a second mark has to be made on the top end of 30 mm along the left side. With a diagonal line the two parts has to be joined. The remaining three PVC pieces has to be joined in similar way.


6. A cut has to be made along the diagonal line in order to make two PVC blade shapes from each section. For other PVC section the step has to be repeated. Each blade must be of 115 mm wide and 30 mm at the narrow end having one straight side and another diagonal side.


7. Eight PVC shapes have to be placed on a flat surface with inside pipe curve downward facing. A mark of each shape has to be made on diagonal line, 75 mm from the corner side of the wide base on the diagonal side. A second mark of 25 mm from the straight edge along the wide side and one point on the diagonal side. Two marks are to be joined with a diagonal line to prepare a triangular section on the corner side.


8. The triangular section on each blade has to be cut off. The section blade is to be removed for avoiding interference with the blade hub.

Tips

PVC though durable, can degrade in sunlight. The PVC has to be painted if it is not UV protected.
