CHAPTER I

This chapter serves as a background for readers to have an overview of the

study even without prior reference to other publications on the topic.

Project Context

Electrical outlets have evolved into a practical source of power, particularly within

our homes. Living in a time where essentially everything we need on a daily basis is

powered by electricity would be quite difficult without these. If outlets would be

unavailable, studying or reviewing could also be difficult, especially if we rely on our

laptops or smartphones for our academic goals. Although the types and voltage

produced by these sockets can vary, they typically deliver AC voltage to supply energy.

Humidifiers and study lamps have recently been able to join the trend. Many

people purchase these items so they can study more peacefully. Study lamps are useful

for studying at night because they do not emit an excessive amount of dispersed light,

which can irritate our eyes at that time of day. On the other hand, humidifiers have a

function that may benefit our health. These appliances add moisture to the air to prevent

irritation-causing dryness of the skin, lips, nose, and throat. Moreover, it might lessen

cold or flu symptoms.

Despite this, when the length of our chargers is too long to reach the socket,

getting an extension cord might be an inconvenience. It can also be difficult to provide a

location for humidifiers and study lamps at the same time. In order to have all three of

these in one location that may be placed atop our desks for studying, the researchers

came up with a solution. By using this product to charge gadgets while studying,

customers will not have trouble getting to or locating outlets. Moreover, it has a built-in
humidifier that users may turn on and off as well as a study lamp. The product uses

batteries to produce electricity.

The envisioned product has both interior and exterior components as well as a

rectangular shape. Where and how electricity is generated can be found inside. It

consists of batteries, DC motors with gears attached that have different sizes for gear

proportion in order to increase the RPM. Wires are linked to the DC motors and routed to

the sockets, lamp, and humidifier in order to make use of the electricity that it generates.

Alternately, the items mentioned so far are present on the exterior. It primarily comprises

the lamp, humidifier, and two US-Euro sockets, one of which has a switch, giving it a

total of three usable sockets. Also, the product has a handle that allows the user to carry

it or move it to different locations if they choose to do so. However, this is also provided

so that during emergency evacuations, an electrical source would not be a problem to

the evacuee since it is essential, particularly in the time that we currently live in.

utilized for most important matters such as charging phones and having light at

night.

Environment. ReVolta-Fresh will help the environment by reducing the Greenhouse

Gases emissions produced by burning of fossil fuels for electricity. The electricity it will

produce will come from kinetic movement of magnets which is very eco-friendly for it

does not form any material that contains carbon. This will lessen the possibility of climate

change and global warming that is caused by human activities.


Definition of Terms

The researchers had defined the following terms to easily understand the study:

Dynamo. This term refers to an electric generator that uses a commutator to generate

direct current.

Electric Field. A physical field known as an electric field is produced by electric charges

or shifting magnetic fields. The force per unit charge applied to a test charge placed at a

point in space is what is referred to as an electric field. They are a cornerstone of

electromagnetism and are crucial to understanding how electrically charged particles

behave.

Gear proportion. Is the ratio between the number of teeth on two gears that are

meshed together, or two sprockets connected with a common roller chain, or the

circumferences of two pulleys connected with a drive belt

RPM. Stands for revolutions per minute, is a unit of measurement used to represent the

speed at which a mechanical part, like an engine or rotating shaft, rotates. It measures

the number of full rotations or revolutions a part makes in a minute.


CHAPTER 2

RELATED LITERATURE, STUDIES, AND SYSTEMS

This chapter presents various studies, articles and literature that were used in the study

after careful examination by the researchers. The referenced literature and studies in this

chapter exhibit a wide range of research conducted by a variety of specialists in relation to the

subject that the researchers are considering. This will serve as a guide for the researchers as

they work on the project and aid in their search for factual data to support the study's specific

findings.

Electromagnetism

Production of electricity has evolved fast throughout the years. In the modern day, various ways

of producing electricity can be found around the world. One of the most known ways to produce

electricity is electromagnetic induction.  BYJU’S (2019) defines electromagnetic induction as a

current that is produced through voltage production because of inconsistent magnetic fields. It

also happens when a conductor is constantly moving in a stationary magnetic field. With this,

ReVolta is designed using rotating CDs utilizing the usage of small screws which serves as the

conductors of electricity. 

According to Britannica (2020), Permanent-magnet-powered generators are simpler since they

do not need a method to supply field current. These types of generators are reliable, though

they lack any mechanisms for regulating the output voltage. These are commonly used on wind

turbines, where an electronic frequency converter is used to supply a power system with the

generator output's changeable voltage and frequency.


Kim & Kim (2020) investigated magnetic gears with radial and parallel magnetization

experimentally. The performance of the gears was compared to that of conventional mechanical

gears by the authors, who tested the RPM and torque production of the gears under various

working situations. According to their findings, magnetic gears have various advantages over

conventional gears, including decreased noise and vibration, increased efficiency, and improved

durability. They can also raise RPM by up to four times.

Gear Proportion

A brand-new concept for a two-stage planetary gear train for wind turbines was put out by

Wang, Zhang, and Peng in (2021). The results of the authors' thorough examination of the gear

train's operation under various load circumstances revealed that the new design has substantial

advantages over earlier ones in terms of torque capacity, effectiveness, and dependability.

Samantaray, Singh, and Mohanty (2021) developed a dynamic model for a two-stage gear train

with nonlinear mesh stiffness and backlash. The authors investigated the effects of these factors

on the gear train's performance, and their results showed that the nonlinearities can significantly

affect the gear train's natural frequencies and response amplitudes. The authors also proposed

some design modifications to reduce the effects of nonlinearities on the gear train's

performance.

Humidifier

This study investigated the effects of using a humidifier on indoor air quality and respiratory

health in children with sick building syndrome (SBS), a condition caused by poor indoor air

quality. The study involved 69 children with SBS who were randomly assigned to either a

humidifier or control group. The humidifier group used a humidifier in their bedrooms for 4

weeks, while the control group did not use any additional equipment. The results showed that
the humidifier group had significantly lower levels of airborne particles and volatile organic

compounds (VOCs) and improved respiratory symptoms and quality of life compared to the

control group. The study concludes that using a humidifier can effectively improve indoor air

quality and alleviate respiratory symptoms in children with SBS Kim, J. L., Cho, S. H., Kim, D.

W., Kwon, J. H., & Park, J. W. (2020)

Electricity production with DC Motor

 The study "Design and Performance Analysis of DC Motor-Generator Set for Electricity

Production" examines the design and operation of a DC motor-generator set for the purpose of

producing electricity. The DC motor-generator set is mathematically modeled and simulated in

the study using MATLAB/Simulink, and the simulation findings are experimentally validated. The

study finds that the DC motor-generator set is an efficient and powerful choice for producing

electricity, making it appropriate for a variety of uses including small-scale industries, rural

electrification, and emergency backup power systems. B. K. Gupta, R. K. Jain, and R. D. Gupta

(2012).

 The article "DC Motor-Based Electricity Generation: A Review" provides an overview of DC

motor-based electricity generation, discussing the working principle and design of DC motors,

their use in electricity generation, and their advantages and disadvantages compared to other

technologies. The authors present a review of recent research in the field, including studies on

the use of DC motors in wind turbines and hydroelectric power plants, and highlight potential

future developments in the technology. Overall, the article provides a comprehensive overview

of the use of DC motors in electricity generation and its potential as a sustainable energy source

Elserougi, A., Atallah, K., Eteiba, M. B., & Abdel Aleem, S. H. (2018).

Renewable Energy
The majority of communities around the world significantly rely on coal, natural gas, and oil.

These fuels consume a lot of resources that will eventually run out, making them either too

expensive or too harmful to the environment to recover. Based on the benefits of these energy

resources, using renewable energies in place of fossil fuels will be a good solution for the

control of the environmental, social, and economic problems of our communities. This review

article addresses the pros and drawbacks of renewable energies.

The Philippines' economy endured the lowest growth over the year, and Filipinos were

subjected to numerous human catastrophes. The intermittent reliability of fossil fuel facilities has

resulted in forced power outages and unscheduled maintenance. As a result of the so-called

manual load reduction to maintain power grid stability, 17 power-generating businesses went

offline and exceeded their plant outage limitations in the first half of 2021 alone. Rolling

blackouts, which have usually only occurred during the hottest months of March and April. A

solution to the Philippines’ economic and energy woes is to invest more in renewable energy

development.

Synthesis

After presenting a variety of pertinent journals, articles, and research, there are various

concepts concerning the given mechanisms and materials for this study. This section of the

chapter seeks to discuss deeper understanding on the aforementioned topics and how the

researchers can create and innovate ReVolta-Fresh.

To begin, electromagnetism is one of the major mechanisms that will make ReVolta-Fresh work.

One of the cited articles suggests that permanent-powered generators are reliable even though

they lack any mechanisms for regulating the output voltage. One of the aims of the researchers

is to have a transportable outlet. To do this, the source of electricity must be built in and should

be able to supply a sufficient amount of electricity.


Furthermore, the product is also designed to have a humidifier. Humidifiers, according to the

presented studies help in improving indoor air quality. A study showed that people who used

humidifiers had less harmful airborne particles compared to those who did not. This in particular

supports one of the objectives of the researchers which is to create an eco-friendly device.

In the study "Design and Performance Analysis of DC Motor-Generator Set," it was found that

DC Motor-Generator Sets are efficient and powerful, suitable for small-scale industries, rural

electrification, and emergency backup power systems. This supports how the researchers

decided to use a DC motor to efficiently make use of the power provided by the magnets.

Lastly, one of the problems the world changes currently is consuming too much non-renewable

energy. With this, renewable energies such as electromagnetic energy can help in the problem

stated.
CHAPTER 3

TECHNICAL BACKGROUND

Project Design

The project is designed to be handy and portable for the users. Hence, the innovators decided

to make it in a rectangular-box shape for it can be carried like just a briefcase. The product has

dimensions 14x12x7 inches approximately. The innovators made the product as small as

possible so that it can be really convenient to use.

Atop the surface of ReVolta-Fresh, found are the handle, lamp and humidifier. The space

provided at the side of these accessories is for the user to place some objects or valuables such

as phones, pencil holders, etc. Simultaneously, this is to provide enough space for the DC

motors and mechanisms inside the ReVolta-Fresh. Lastly, the outlets are placed at the side,

adjacent to the lamp and humidifier so that it is suited for tables and other surfaces at home.

Lastly, a switch is placed beside the sockets which allows for the product to be turned on or off.

Overall, every detail of the design of ReVolta-Fresh is made for a purpose. The innovators

made it as simple as possible so that it will be easy to use and manageable for users.

CHAPTER IV

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Development and Testing

As the researchers were developing ReVolta-Fresh, the main objectives of the study

were put to consideration in order to make a product that would satisfy the objectives. The trials,

revisions and changes made by the researchers will be discussed.

Originally, the product was designed to have both external and internal designs with both

functioning mechanisms. The external part of the product is made up of the casing, humidifier,

outlets, and lamps. On the contrary, the internal part is where the materials that cause the

mechanisms to work are put. Namely the neodymium magnets, DC motor, DC-AC converter

and wires.

However, upon further examination and testing of the original design, the researchers decided

to modify the mechanisms. Using the neodymium magnets were possible but the product was

unable produce consistent output voltage resulting in failure of the product. Due to this, batteries

and gears were added in the mechanism changing the original source of electricity from

electromagnetic induction of the neodymium magnets to the energy produced by the batteries.

Gears were put in the DC motors with different sizes to increase RPM resulting in an increased

energy output from the batteries.

Results
During the data gathering procedure, questionnaires along with testing procedures were

provided to the selected respondents. To determine if the product is effective, the given

questionnaires were treated with a frequency and percentage distribution or simply averaging.

SOP 1 and 3 would be answered by the respondents while SOP 2 and 4 would be answered by

the researchers themselves. Provided herein are the initial results of the study prior to the

distribution of questionnaires to selected respondents.
