Electricity in Rural Areas of Cambodia
Hey, I was wondering if I could get some input on a project for university, It would help If you fill out a survey, it takes less than 5 minutes. The link is at the bottom
I'm a student at a University in the US, and I'm working on a project where I have to design a feasible product that will be able to generate a small amount of electricity, and I'm focusing it for people in rural Cambodia, who haven't been connected to the grid. I've come up with four concepts and I explain them in the survey, and it doesn't ask for any personal information as well
Here's the link: https://forms.gle/PbepKag3JZ5oQytA9
If you have any questions about it let me know

Your whole "project" shines through stupidity. You should, as a university student, be ashamed to propose dumb "concepts" like the ones in your link.

What's the point in using a solar panel to heat water for a turbine? Couldn't the solar panel just generate electricity?

Whilst V12 is a bit harsh, your options aren't overly practical. Solar exists here but is quite expensive so not realistic for a poor family. Cambodia is also relatively flat so the hill cart option also isn't really an option. Is there a reason you chose Cambodia? Is it based on a needs assessment you have researched? climate? coincidentally a report just published show 75% connected now https://cne.wtf/2020/02/11/electricity- ... omw0srKjHI
My post was deleted about me doubting his student credentials.
This is clearly a data gathering exercise by some marketing company who’ll sell of the clean data to some new age energy company.

pew, pew, pew, pew!
Actually, it might not have been "deleted", though a "bug" in the forum software. You were posting at the same time as I was and I got "previewed" your posting, when I did my posting. Only when I posted again, my posting made it to the thread. Maybe you got the same message about new replies being submitted while you were posting and you did not resubmit ?
Yeah, a bit harsh, though these "we know it all" students need a "back to reality" message, which do not tend to arrive, when being told in a friendly, non-harsh way. A harsh message creates a shock, etc.......tombraider wrote: ↑Wed Feb 12, 2020 3:30 amWhilst V12 is a bit harsh, your options aren't overly practical.

The whole point of this survey is to learn about the issue, because I recognize that I don't "know it all". Telling me that my ideas are bad isn't going to help anyone at all. If you want me to "get back to reality" you should tell me specifically what I'm doing wrong.v12 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 12, 2020 9:52 amYeah, a bit harsh, though these "we know it all" students need a "back to reality" message, which do not tend to arrive, when being told in a friendly, non-harsh way.

Also have you made a study of what is already on the market?
And why on earth would you roll a cart down a hill or hoist a large rock up a tree when you can hook up a bicycle to a battery like people have been doing for a hundred years or so. If its only for a few LED lights at night you can just get an old car battery and load it in a few minutes a day.
None but ourselves can free our mind.
A real and proper student does FIRST study until s/he gains the amount of knowledge on par with what is known in the world about the subject, before bothering other people with stupid ideas. That's how science works. Science is not Facebook/Instagram quality level of communication, which you show. You should be been explained that in your first months at the university (or maybe you got those lessons though you decided to ignore, since it did not match your Facebook/Instagram imaginary world you are living in).

Yeah, and if I was deciding how it was done, that would be how I would do it, but I'm not. The project is not for a science class, it's trying to teach us "Design Thinking", a process where the needs of a product are attempted to be understood before getting in to what is actually feasible or realistic. That's what the survey is for; I'm putting out some ideas to see if there are any cultural oversights I'm making. I don't like the process, but I'm not the professor, and if I were to try to do it in a different way than what was prescribed, I would fail the class. I don't know what you think you will gain by continuing this, but I thought I would enlighten you on the fact that (surprise!) I'm following someone else's directions, and I think it's stupid too.v12 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 13, 2020 12:07 pmA real and proper student does FIRST study until s/he gains the amount of knowledge on par with what is known in the world about the subject, before bothering other people with stupid ideas.
