From increasing energy crisis, the only solution is to turn towards renewable resources. The major components for a conventional hydroelectric plant are a reservoir, hydraulic turbines, and a powerhouse. Among a few pico-hydro choices, Whirlpool Hydropower Generator (WHG) is another expansion in the group of ultra-low head hydropower generation and is one of the emerging advancements that have exceptional consideration of academicians internationally. In WHG, an artificially framed vortex turns a co-axially turbine, combined with a generator thus producing electricity. This study is focused to design and manufacture a turbine to produce electricity from regular canal systems using basic concepts of whirlpools and vortex. It features a vertical axis cross-flow in the turbine and implementing it to harness hydro-p...

We present an alternative approach to developing a device that can automatically detect and control gas leakages and also monitor temperature. The system detects the leakage of the LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) using a gas sensor, then triggred the control system response which employs ventilator system, Mobile phone alert and alarm when the LPG concentration in the air exceeds a certain level. The performance of two gas sensors (MQ5 and MQ6) were tested for a guided decision. Also, when the temperature of the environment poses a danger, LED (indicator), buzzer and LCD (16x2) display was used to indicate temperature and gas leakage status in degree Celsius and PPM respectively. Attension was given to the response time of the control system, which was ascertained that this system significantly increases the chances and efficiency of eliminating gas leakage related accident.

The aim of this project is to develop such a device that can automatically detect and control gas leakages and also monitor temperature in vulnerable areas. The system detects the leakage of the LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) using a gas sensor and then also monitors the temperature using a temperature sensor. When the LPG concentration in the air exceeds a certain level, the gas sensor senses the gas leakage and the output of the sensor goes LOW, the system then opens the exit windows, and then uses the GSM to alert the person about the gas leakage via SMS. Also, when the temperature of the environment exceeds a certain limit, it then turns ON the LED (indicator) and make an alarm through the b...
