Chapter I

I. Rationale

Generator a machinery which mechanical energy (e.g. oil, hydro, solar panel,

wind) converts to electrical energy.

Generator has a big contribution on power consumption, supplies energy that

is one of the solutions on power shortage. It is the newly invented equipment which

creates energy by using chemical substances (e.g. Vegetable oil) and turns into

electricity.

A large percentage has recorded by the consumption of electricity not only

here in the Philippines but internationally. All processes, operations uses electricity

including establishments, equipment, machines, and tools. It has been a basic need

of human being and in order also to sustain other needs.

However, it was also noticed that some region has committed power shortage

that occurs in an electrical power system wherein the power plants in the system is

insufficient to supply to all customers with electric power.

In addition, Generators has also contributed on these things which also

benefits and give advantages on users that can enable to sustain the battery life or

the energy needed by these equipment powered with vegetable oil.

II. Objectives

1. To construct a powered generator powered with vegetable oil

2. To determine its efficiency and credibility

3. To make sure its significance to the people

III. Materials and Equipment

250-Volt convenience outlet Engine

Built- Pump Dynamo

Switch Magnet

Batteries Copper wire

IV. Procedure

First will be making the layout for the generator. Building the generator

with the materials provided. Second will be testing its compatibility with

vegetable oil and has an electricity produced. Third will be power it with

Vegetable oil. Lastly will be to test the small devices provided using this

generator.
