GENERATION OF CONSTANT POWER SUPPLY FROM A DC SOURCE

GENERATION OF CONSTANT POWER SUPPLY FROM A DC SOURCE

CHAPTER ONE

1.0  INTRODUCTION

Direct current sources are not as easily generated as its alternating current counterpart, the truth is that its importance can not be over looked in our society. A power supply is a device that supplies electrical energy to one or more electric loads.

The term is most commonly applied to devices that convert another form of energy eg (Mechanical, chemical, solar) etc to electrical energy. Every power supply must obtain the energy it supplies to its loads as well as any energy it consumes while performing that task from an energy source, depending on its design. A power supply may obtain energy from any of the following energy

1. Storage devices such as batteries and fuel cells.
2. Electromechanical system such as generators and alternators etc.

This project represents one out of several means by which “Generation of constant power is achieved. However, with a little impart assessment carried out, it is notable that this equipment is environmentally friendly, it emits little or no pollutants, no fuel is required, it is cheaper than the normal constant alternating current power source whereby alternators are driven by prime movers that use fuel to run these arrangement are very bulky, but this project portrays a potable equipment that is appreciably cheap.
