The SelectrixxDevice Converting Sound Energy into Electrical Energy

Abstract

Electricity is one of the most important blessings that science has given to mankind. This topic was chosen, and the goal is for utilising the noise pollution in a city material is the thing to be used in converting sound energy into electrical energy. Specifically, this study would like to answer the following questions: (a) How much energy can the Selectrixxdevice produce? (b) Does the Selectrixx Device can produce nine voltage to support the street lights? (c) Does the size of oscillators (flat bars) affect the amount of energy gathered in terms of voltage? Flat plastic bars were placed between two metal bricks and thicker metal brick above the metal brick. The screws in the holes were placed and screwed using wrench/plier. Two medium-sized piezoelectric chips were pasted in the flat plastic bar. The end of the copper wire of piezoelectric chips was peeled off and, using soldering iron;this was connected to the circuit board along with full bridge rectifier and wire was put on it and connected to another circuit board with battery/cables. Electrical tape was put on open wirings to avoid short circuit. The circuit board was pasted to the metal brick and using soldering iron, the battery/other cables were attached to the circuit boards. The statistics used are the Mann Whitney-U Test with significance level 0.05 both in energy gathered, energy gathered when two variables are compared and if it can supply electricity for the streetlights. The critical value for energy gathered is 2.79 and for energy gathered when two variables are compared is 2.79 and for the last hypothesis as well. The computed value for energy gathered is -1.983 and for the energy gathered when two variables are compared is -33.511 and the critical value for the last hypothesis is 30. Based on the experimentations and results, the researchers, therefore, concluded that the Selectrixxdevice is an effective source of energy and the size of the oscillator affects the amount of energy gathered (in terms of a volt), but it cannot supply the energy that is needed for the street lights.
