  1. Steel Energy TheGREENESTsteel you’ll ever see.

  2. Team Hot Sauce Ben Gastineau Zach Wieger Hunter Culbertson Eric Spraggins

  3. The Steel Mill Windmill & Generator PVC casing All thread Steel Rod 30ga. Magnet Wire Neodymium magnets Plexiglass Duct Tape

  4. Cost of Production PVC – Zach’s house Plexiglass – Zach’s house Prop – Ben’s dorm Duct Tape – Friend’s L.E.D’s – Friend’s Mag. Wire - $15 All thread - $3 Steel rod - $3 Nuts/Lock nuts - $2 Magnents - $16 Total Cost TC ≈ $38

  5. Electrical and Mechanical Aspects Mechanical • Magnets spining create an electrical current through magnetic field • The current then lights a small L.E.D • Wind turns the prop • The prop turns the rod and magnets inside the generator Electrical

  6. A Look at Efficiency

  7. Design Issues Finding Materials Producing enough energy Mounting generator in PVC Tolerance to spin in steel rod Positioning magnets

  8. Conclusions Successfully lit 2 L.E.D’s An estimated efficiency of 6.11% Learned how to produce electricity through a magnetic field We carefully picked materials, and did research to be productive.
