Sustainable electrical energy generation technique in shallow water channels

Without electrical energy, technology is nothing other than a playing toy. So, efforts always need to harness electricity from almost every plausible energy points which are discrete or continuous in nature. In true sense, a developing country's most challenging problem is low-cost sustainable energy generation. Efforts are being made to develop technologies which would lead to sustainable energy generation. The present research deals with a new environment friendly hydrokinetic device producing energy using a technique of vibration induced by vortex (VIV) which may be sometimes called as technique of vibration induced by flow (FIV) via a linear generator shall be of useful impact. In this research a modified device was tested in various types of flow depths basically approaching towards shallow water depth in water-channels and observed the voltage and power correlations for various modified structures used in an effort to enhance the VIV. This type sustainable generation techniques would be very much useful to various parts of rural areas where there is limited amount of available electricity.
