Abstract

Since the conventional power generation involved natural resource which are depleting day by day, the use of non-conventional source can be a better alternative in generation of electricity. Wind power is a major source of power if used in generation of power using the fast train, can contribute power to the grid. On such a model is designed and built up on small scale and tested in laboratory is presented here as a U.G. level project. A method is used to generating electricity by using railway. Fast moving vehicles (Train) are induced wind on opposite direction of train motion. This air pressure are used to rotate the wind turbine on the roof of train. Turbineare used to convert wind energy into mechanical energy and generator are used to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. Turbine and generator are coupled to each other and generated power is used to electrical equipments in train couch.

Keywords: Wind Turbine, Wind, Train, Railway etc.
