Here we are presenting a new kind of wind turbine that is comparatively smaller, compact and thus can be manufactured and maintained easily. It also doesn’t need any costly rotating mechanism for adjusting itself to the wind direction. But,
Atomiq is developing a next-generation plasma-based propulsion system, presenting a cutting-edge technology that redefines transportation. The utilization of plasma as a propellant introduces unprecedented efficiency and versatility, addressing the limitations of traditional propulsion methods. The technology delves into the underlying principles, key components,
The need to control the balance of a load that is spinning at a high rate of speed is essential to the preservation of the mechanisms of rotation in a dynamic launch system capable of accelerating a mass to an escape velocity.
In the rapidly evolving world of electric vehicles (EVs), the safety and performance of lithium-ion (li-ion) battery packs are of utmost importance. Recognizing this critical need, Mr. Vivek Dawange has led the charge in developing an innovative thermal management system that promises to redefine the EV industry.
The Phantom Driver Vehicle Control System is a self-contained radio-control driving system designed to fit any steering-wheel-controlled vehicle. It was originally conceived for vehicle crash testing, but can be used for any type of vehicle testing,
Time travel, a concept often explored in science fiction, remains a dream for now due to its conflict with the laws of physics. When moving in space, we do not carry the entire external environment around us - buildings, trees, people... .
Brake Horse Power (BHP) and Brake Specific Fuel Consumption (BSFC) are few parameters which are taken into account while designing an engine. Power to be produced in the engine needs specific fuel consumption, basis the calorific value of the fuel. For extracting maximum power from the combustion process,
Hydrofirebreak is an innovative fire barrier system designed to protect vulnerable areas against forest and urban fires. This solution uses advanced technology that combines water elements and fire retardant materials to create an effective barrier that can prevent the spread of fire. The barrier is easy to install,
Cylinder Deactivation is a well-known automotive and diesel concept employed for decades to improve cylinder pumping losses and improve fuel economy. It does so by shutting off both fuel injection and valve motion to specified cylinders during light load conditions.
This concept was developed by an 11 year old boy who is diagnosed as Level 2 Asperger. I was partly homeschooling my son when we came across the 'Origin - Big Little Ideas' competition.
