To create the magnetic rotor, we used the following materials: -1' diameter, thick cardboard -Super strength Rare Earth magnets
Stator
One half of the components to form electricity is the Stator. To create a small scale, prototype stator, we used the following materials: - 1' diameter, thick cardboard -Enameled magnet wire, 25 gage -Electrical tape
Turbine Prototype 2
To enhance our product, we went bigger with the following materials: -2" PVC -2 Bucket Tops -Screws and nuts -3/4" PVC
Turbine Prototype 1
For our first prototype thought process, we came up with the simple materials of a: -Large cork -Plastic spoons -.50" Wooden oil -.75 Plastic tubing -Hot Glue
We placed the wooden dowel through the "turbine" and it was all placed in the middle of a Cristal Geyser water bottle.
1st Draft
To get our idea across, with the simple design of an unconstructed top view.
