and our beloved principal Dr.Vaddi Seshagiri Rao, M.E.,M.B.A.,Ph.D., for
having encouraged me to do my under graduation in Mechanical engineering in
this esteemed college.

We also express my sincere thanks and most heartfelt sense of gratitude to our
eminent Head of the Department Dr. Arunkumar N, M.E.,Ph.D., (student affairs)
and Dr. Arivazhagan, M.E.,Ph.D., for having extended their helping hand at all
times.

It is with deep sense of gratitude that we acknowledge our indebtedness to my


beloved supervisor Mr. Karthikeyen KMB, M.E., a perfectionist for his expert

ABSTRACT

In current scenario energy production by mechanical, electrical and


electronic methods have become and costly economical problem. Inventions are
aimed at using the waste energy for enhancing existing function or creating a new
application. This project is totally based on conceiving pressure force from waste
energy and how it can be used in various applications embedded in vehicle without
sacrificing space and cost.

The proposed system that is Heartwheel Mechanism can be used for


using the waste energy and can be applied to operate certain functions like
actuating centrifugal clutch, actuating spoilers at high speeds, disengaging
turbochargers at high speeds, replacement for governor at vehicles, sensing
element to measure speed, can be used to couple dynamo in regenerative breaking,
can be used as speedometers, can be used to alert during power production in wind
mills, can be used to operate starters in dc motors and have various applications
related to rotational force.
