Week 14 : Poster Designing and Project Demo Presentation

Objective: 

Designing poster for project demo presentation and demonstration the project.

 

Analysis/Discussion:

The presentation day of FYP II is on 13th May 2015 at Gemilang Hall. All candidates that participate need to prepare for presentation according the format given. As it has been briefed before the format of poster for presentation must contain the following subject:  

1. Introduction
2. Objectives
3. Methodology
4. Block Diagram
5. Analysis
6. Conclusion

My poster was design following the format:

 

Figure 19: Poster for project demo presentation

Conclusion:

The Presentation Day has been a success. I have presented my project to both of the assigned accessors and they are satisfied with my project.

Week 13 : Testing and Troubleshooting

Objective:
Testing of functional "Thermoelectric Devices Charger" and troubleshooting when problem occur.

Analysis/Discussion:

As the prototype have been completely constructed, there is need to testing and verify that the system is surely able to supply low powered devices through "Thermoelectric Devices Charger" .For testing purpose, the smartphone and power bank was used. it is successfully work for charging purpose as shown in figure below.

Due to testing and troubleshooting of prototype, all data has been recorded in a graph. In graph shown below is the graph when ice used to steel container (cold side of thermoelectric) and candle (as heat source as hot side).

Conclusion:

The prototype is successfully function based on objective requirement development of "Thermoelectric Devices Charger"

Week 12 : Designing the Thermoelectric Device Charger

Objective:
To design which compatible to bring anywhere.

Analysis/Discussion:
This design based on the best output can be produced by the thermoelectric. I have selected TEC1-12708 and DC-DC booster converter to develop "Thermoelectric Device Charger".

Conclusion:

The steel container is to fill the water or to fill the ice for cold side of thermoelectric and at hot side of thermoelectric are used heat from candle or campfire.
