Abstract

Designing energy recovery systems that are pollution free has become a significant goal within the research community. One of numerous systems that have been proposed is Speed Bump Power Generator (SBPG) system that produces electrical power by utilizing the movements of commuting vehicles on highways,boulevards, and streets. When vehicles pass over a SBPG system, the system translates vertically. Consequently, a kinetic energy is produced and transferred into electrical power. In this project, an experimental analysis is performed on the rack-and-pinion system. Results show that electrical power of upto 1.9 kw can be generated from the designed system.
