  • Facing Challenges as Young Engineers

    CHAIN Events

    This presentation was prepared on behalf of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and presented at the CHAIN Event in Manchester by Murat Islam. The aim was to highlight the challenges faced by young students and graduate engineers, and how to overcome these with the help of a professional engineering institution such as the IMechE. The presentation also includes student recruitment slides from Emma-Jane Guy, the IMechE North West, North Wales and Merseyside Business Development Manager.

  • Design and Development of a Vertical Axis Micro Wind Turbine

    University of Manchester

    Increasing demand in energy facilitated the need of clean energy such as wind energy. Residences, buildings and commercial sites needs more power, but also continuous power. Important facilities such as wireless or radio sets requires small amount of energy, but with a continuous supply. This study was done to investigate the design and development of the vertical axis micro wind turbines. The contribution of counter rotating impellers with a freely rotating generator to produce energy was…

    Increasing demand in energy facilitated the need of clean energy such as wind energy. Residences, buildings and commercial sites needs more power, but also continuous power. Important facilities such as wireless or radio sets requires small amount of energy, but with a continuous supply. This study was done to investigate the design and development of the vertical axis micro wind turbines. The contribution of counter rotating impellers with a freely rotating generator to produce energy was investigated. For the analysis and design, Solidworks, Mathcad and Abaqus CAE programmes were used. Possible developments were considered. In conclusion, it was seen that the counter rotating impellers provide better power production, an increase of six time that of single impeller ones.
