2nd Prototype

Since the first prototype does not produce sufficient output for testing, we have decided to improved the prototype design. For the second prototype, we have double up the number of coil windings (N) from 300 to 600. Then the prototype was tested for the output voltage. Following figure shows the result from the second prototype.



The second prototype has shows a significant improvement in term of maximum voltage. It produced a maximum voltage up to 2.168 V. However, the current output remains same as the first prototype. The generator then tested to charge the 3900μF capacitor. Following figure shows the charge voltage on capacitor at same frequency as it was tested on the first prototype.

As expected, by increasing the turns of the coil winding we managed to increase the generator output though, the current remained the same as the initial proto-type.

My thoughts are, if this single modification was able to increase the output voltage significantly; then just imagine what we can achieve by making a few more adjustments. Judging by our previous outcomes, we are gradually getting better results, and so I believe that we can improve even further.
