DIT Mechanical Engineering - Final Year Project Update Wave Energy Converter

[kawsihen]

will it blend?

[Nero5174]

not sure wat it does but i think its working

[HaydenHatTrick]

I think I get the principle behind this. Actually a decent concept to use that to harness waves... obviously a prototype demonstration.

[TheDarqTurk]

and you finish your school with that project?

[08aceofspades]

what kind of trash is this?

[radokopca]

lol this is useless crap

[CamoPeng]

Someone please explain what it's purpose is? It sounds deadly.

[Gunner3210]

What is this exactly?

[pnailen]

looks like a broken washing machine... lol jk

[advthinker]

Kewl, a bed pan generator! real simple, and if you sealed it and put it in the ocean, i think this would work! Now if you used a telephone magneto, and gravity swings the arm, and generates a/c volts and amps. a bunch of them hooked up and wired together and teathered would be a neat thing!

[bazengao]

fail all over the place

[CydexaN]

whats this exactly ? i think its broken

[777strongcoffee]

How about telling us what's going on here????

[bertjesklotepino]

sad. Why not use the currents? sure waves have energy but the currents are easieer to handle all ways with a turnable prop on a stick on the bottom. (as they already do.)

Why think of these useless devices, if there already is better solutions?

Not that im the handyman, i just think its a bit of waste of time, resources, energy and what not. Actually to have youtube store this video and my comment on it is also pure waste of energy, money, diskspace and what not.

But, keep it up!!!

[CiliaDarren]

@bertjesklotepino its a waste of energy but you still commented, then I see no problem with him doing this project even if he knows it's a waste of energy?

[Diddleshot]

It's a nice prospect, and idea, but there are a number of ways to make it more efficient, and produce more energy in practicality.

[jeffey55]

so what is it supose to do

[HWman1991]

прикольно... волновая эл. станция рулит!

[AleatorInfestus]

nice... i liked it ;)

[homskoult]

Not as efficient as the mechanism in a self winding watch. It can convert motion in both directions.

[cantkeepquiet09]

It keeps good beat .

[myryonspoof]

not too efficent but making major progress!

[GoodByeKyle]

thats the best... one of them... i've seen so far :D

[snaylionid]

can i ask you wtf is this?

[MrRedSource]

@snaylionid its a mechanism the converts wave motion "Beach wave" to electrical energy

[xgedokid1412]

so.. what is it?

[SSHPCS2]

But will it blend?

[Steipp]

What is simulating the waves in this video? Deadly device by the way!

[feirce003]

what does this do?/

[wecantsee]

I think the rotation should be limited in one direction, it looks like an AC generator.

[fritzarken74]

an automatic clock works this way

[theskilledmonkey]

Awesome project..but it is not at resonance

[shamel132]

now we r living in the FUTURE ...

[josephdupont]

pUT COILS AROUND THE THE pOT.

LET A MAGNET SWING AROUND

yOU NEED ENOUGH BOUYANCY TO NEGATE THE WEIGHT OF THE PENDULUM.

[rbkshashi]

its possible to make manually and practically for a project if yes please suggest me

thanks for nice implementation please suggest me my e mail id rbkshashi@gmail.com

tank for nice implementation

[dicbyrd]

Why did I watch this twice ?

[captkirkconnell]

thats Nice! I like it, seems very practical and something that needs no development to deploy.

[wecantsee]

It's a new model of enchanted kingdom's ride, i think good for foods against flies.

[dwenjohn]

hi... i'm doing my mechanical project for plant this year and if you have some good idea can you please tell me but i want a low cost project about 400 dollars...

i'm student and i very interested in your expertise..

[goat20101]

if it was supposed to go round and round it failed

[vertoisful]

bong tik

[trexinvert]

Instead of "consuming energy" to simulate the wave, just put it in a pool or body of water. Use your own hands or get some kids to kick up the wave. That's more closer to the actual application, right? 

[Spanky00Cheeks]

My Capstone Project was wireless power transfer. :D

[shortyjk95]

stupid

[A1Skeptic]

Let me know when you get it working, unless your goal was to bore me!

[pirondinimarco]

It is like to automatic watch mechanism that charging the spring.

Bye bye

[mimimiatv]

adek aku kt umah pun buleh buat heheeheheeheeh

[dodgedart74]

i think a solenoid would work better.

[3108cata]

hiiiiiiiii iam mechanical final year student. IAM REALLY CONFUSED ABOUT MY FINAL PROJECT. I HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT IT. CAN YOU HELP ME............

[madnessdexter]

how much energy does it create?

[MrToxin65]

If you need constant rotation direction - it fails. The waves won't walk around your device, no constant rotation should be expected. The lever would rather drift around some position. Rotation is possible ONLY if the waves frequency match the wheel rotation frequency.

Also, you need to consider the weight of bulk and lever and size of the bowl. Size of the bowl affects lifting force, and force affects weight. Won't work underwater, no waves - no force changes.

[boogiebuddy01]

i don't get it

[Scerab]

Verrry cool, but i don't think it would be as energy efficient as some other tidal generators. I am just finishing up high school though so what do i know? either way the mechanics of it is cool. do you have any videos of it in water? i would love to see how smoothly it could move.

[corglass]

sure kamonua007, are you in DIT? drop me your email via my profile

[divyarajranjan]

@corglass HE I AM ALSO SEARCHING FOR PROJECTS LIKE THIS BUT I AM NOT UNDERSTANDING WHATS THIS CAN U HELP ME

[kamouna007]

Hey, am doing my final yr project on a wave energy converter...and am stuck in a couple of things...i was wondering if you could give me any sort of assitance on it..???

[corglass]

@kamouna007 sure kamonua007, are you in DIT? drop me your email via my profile

[mimimiatv]

@corglass

[runelord41]

what is it saposed to do?

[sandform]

So this was your final project? Did they like the idea? I'm Pre-Engineering right now working on getting phys/calc done this semester so I can transfer into my major and I haven't heard anything about what the final project is supposed to be.

[hoppper26]

what the hell is this

[SpencahD]

Very well done but the pneumatic drive is VIOLENT! Put it in a vessel of water for your testing, try varying points of bouyancy around the rim to exaggerate the wave motions and maintain the helical motion of the device

[corglass]

thanks for the comment. If you check out my other videos you'll see I've used a water tank also.

[hexyournightmare]

that sound is pissing me off...for god sake did you hear about fonic polution?

[Magganrchy]

ok yes in this application it's pretty useless...but imagine it on a buoy in the ocean somewhere.

[rboos]

Awesome project. For those who didn't understand, we finally got rid of the mice and rats, not even roaches hover around anymore. After you get used to the noise, you can even sleep at night! Great project!

[HalfLife2Beta]

LOL.

[DARILyankee]

useless energy to boring energy

[saadihw]

it converts wave energy into more usefull form i.e. electricity...

[JozeyHall]

would be better with a few sensors and did it automaticly and better

[roboman79]

Oh......., It's very cool but what is it?

[P4R3J4]

And that can be used for????

Y como para que sirve eso.

[fourkbmx]

i converts the energy stored in the water waves into kinetic energy, that then is converted to electric energy by a generator......

[Niohimself]

What is this supposed to do?

[4point54billionyears]

where does the woman sit?

[johnnytheprick]

lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololoolololololol­o.............cute handle.

[WhiteElement1]

lol funny

[sixmagpies]

Judging by some of the comments below....we are screwed.

[francuz01]

what is this?? oO

[daniloorbolato]

I am asking myself the same !! LOL

[joker064]

i think timing might be a factor as well

[Jestiron222]

Dude...it annoys me yet again to see someone who has beat me to the punch in terms of ideas; HOWEVER,...I do have some ideas for you to improve what you have. And they are GOOD ideas. I do see you have had some improvement already....lookin good.

[WmashdaProductions]

i think you might need to adjust the wieght up abit more.

[Cokoholicar]

you're putting in more energy than you're getting out

[polskamafia4]

please show me a case where you get more energy than is put in, please!!! Then we might finally solve the energy crisis!!

P.S. your a moron, energy is always lost either through heat or another method.

[Cokoholicar]

Douchebag, don't reply to me if you're commenting the OP

[polskamafia4]

Does it look like im commenting the OP??? Really? Does it really look like it? Did you even read the comment?

P.S. I'm replying to YOU because im not commenting the OP.

[Cokoholicar]

You have some serious issues dude, I stated a fact that he is inputting more energy than he is getting out of the system but overcoming this balance will never be the answer to the energy crisis because it is absolute truth. You can never get more energy than what you put in, this is true. You misunderstood the first post which was a simple statement for the OP and then your 12 year old brain decided to act all smart and here we are, so why don't you just fu*k off from internet.

[Cokoholicar]

oh and by the way, eat shit

[polskamafia4]

LOL! why on earth would you post something that is seem as "common sense"? then you go turn around and just repeat what i've stated.

Way to point out the obvious captin.

Ohh, and just no reply to the eat shit comment, you've already dug yourself deep, i don't think i need to match it :)
