INTRODUCTION
This
kinetic energy can be utilized to produce power by using a special arrangement called POWER HUMP.
In
the present scenario power becomes the major need for human life. is an important input in all the sectors of any countries economy.
Energy There
are already existing such systems using renewable energy such as solar wind), OTEC (ocean thermal energy conversions) etcfor power generation.
The
latest technology which is used to generate the power by such renewable energy is the POWER HUMP
The
hump mechanism was housed under the dome like a speed breaker. speed breakers are invisible in night to enlightens this LEDs are
These
used.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
While
moving, the vehicles possess some kinetic energy and it is being wasted. This kinetic energy can be utilized to produce power.
Whenever
the vehicle is allowed to pass over the dome it gets pressed downwards then the springs are attached to the dome is compressed and the rack which is attached to the bottom of the dome moves downward in reciprocating motion.
A
flywheel is mounted on the shaft whose function is to regulate the fluctuation in the energy and to make the energy uniform, which converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy.
The
power is generated in both the directions to convert this power into one way a special component is used called zenor diode for continuous supply.

ABOUT LED
light-emitting diode: diode such that light emitted at a p-n junction is proportional to the bias current; color depends on the material used Used for display in some electronic devices. a semi-conductor or 'solid state' light source. LEDs can produce a very bright light for a small amount of power. LEDs are now used in many applications eg car brake lights, traffic lights, but white coloured LEDs are a relatively new technology. are used in place of lasers for some output systems.
Advantages
No pollution Often an excellent supplement to other renewable sources Inexhaustible fuel source The maintenance cost is low Disadvantages The design of springs are difficult Special care should be taken while designing of equipments
CONCLUSION
Energy
is an important input to sustain industrial growth and standard of living of a country and can be directly related to per-capita energy consumption. The conventional sources energy like coal, oil, uranium etc are depleting very fast and by the turn of the century man will have to depend upon non conventional sources of energy for power generation.
The
various types of non-conventional sources of energy are solar energy, wind energy, biogas etc now by developing POWER HUMP we can generate power without utilizing any external sources mentioned earlier.
