- PublicationSolar powered remote auto feeding with GSM mobile phone(2025-03-24)Syahrunizam Mohd SoidThese thesis objectives are to build a prototype for economical and low maintenance automatic fish feeder by using solar panel and Global System Mobile (GSM) network controlled by Microcontroller Unit (MCU). The automatic fish feeder is designed to give a food by farmer wished for every day. In this project, 10W solar panel is used for supplying Direct Current (DC) voltage to charge two's 12volts batteries. The charger controller connected between solar panel and the batteries; charger controller is acted as on/off switch, it's off when then batteries are full and on when the batteries are low from desired voltage set. In this system, one of the batteries is to give supply to motor (blower) and another one is to give a supply to GSM mobile and others utilities.
20 19 - PublicationStudy on the effect of HANO sized MGO addition on mechanical strength of BI-2223 superconductor(2025-03-24)Rashpaljit Singh A/L Santokh SinghThis thesis reviews MgO particles were brought into (Bi,Pb)2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 powder in nanosized weight portions. Mass examples were produced using the Bi2223/MgO powder and warmth treated at different temperatures. The stage arrangement and the microstructure were examined for with expansion of MgO and together with the mechanical quality. It was found that, beneath 845C, the proportion of Bi2223 stage diminished when the measure of MgO expanded. The nearness of MgO affected the microstructure of the specimens and diminished the mean size of Bi2223 grains yet at the same time have better superconducting properties as unadulterated Bi-2223. The impacts of the MgO option on the portray nanosized MgO added to superconductor utilizing x- beam diffraction (XRD) and filtering electron microscope (SEM).
5 17 - PublicationEnergy harvesting floor using piezoelectric devices(2025-03-24)Mohd Farid RamliPiezoelectric materials have a special characteristic that can produce energy that needed to operate most electric or electronic components. The piezoelectric materials will produce the energy when it captures the ambient of vibration or motion. With this special characteristic of piezoelectric materials, development of piezoelectric devices to harvest the energy has been talked since years ago. The idea of energy harvesting come from the human motion or can be classified as mechanical force. This mechanical force will be used by piezoelectric materials as their input and convert it to the electrical energy as their output. Recent study show this power generation from piezoelectric materials can be harvested and stored into energy storage. The basic of the piezoelectric device used the piezoelectric materials. A prototype of a pavement was designed to harvest the energy that produced by piezoelectric device. This piezoelectric device was placed under the pavement. As human walked on the pavement, the energy was produced and this energy was stored into energy storage. Most likely energy storage for energy harvesting will be store into Nickel Metal Hydride rechargeable battery.
16 15 - PublicationDesign and fabrication of a solar collector(2025-03)Khairuddin AziuddinThis thesis presents the design and fabrication of a solar collector. The objectives of this project are to construct a solar collector that can be used for domestic purposes of a small family of three to four members, to be able to raise temperature of water from roughly 27°C to about 60°C to 70°C, to be able to hold up against local weather and to do economic analysis to compare its economical performance with the electrical water heater. The process began with doing research on the types of solar collector to select the best one that meets the expected outcome. Then, the suitable materials were selected so that the collector has high heat absorption rate of sunlight and be robust at the same time. After that, a visit to a local manufacturer of solar water heaters, SolarMate Sdn. Bhd. in Shah Alam was made to learn and observe the processes involved in fabricating a solar collector. Later, the fabrication stage took place and tests were carried out to evaluate the performance of the collector. Finally, an economic analysis was performed using the annual worth method on both the solar water heater and the electrical water heater to see which of the two would be more beneficial in the long run.
14 18 - PublicationA study thermal energy storage in building(2025-03-24)Azmuddin AzharThe objective of this project is to understand the Thermal Energy Storage (TES) process and conducting a study on TES in a well defined premise by comparing the TES system with the conventional system. For author's project, firstly author did a research on the conventional method of cooling a building, the problem aroused from the method and what is the need of the industry nowadays in order to overcome the problems. Then author did a background research on TES of a building, the structure of TES, its benefits and how it will contribute in such a way that most industry players will want it for an alternative to cool their premises. Next author secured a place for him to conduct his study, for both methods of cooling. The data gathered from the place of study then compiled and analyzed for conclusion on which cooling method is the best for long term investment. Last but not least is the suggestion from author based on the research that he had done to building owners on the advantages of using TES rather than the conventional method.
