The Free-D Elevator System
Miracles in life originate from daily life itself. What can be imagined can really be achieved. Hong Kong, as an international city, is small in area and densely populated. To utilize space, tall buildings inevitably emerge. Taking elevators has therefore become the daily routine of everyone of us. However, problems abound with the present elevator system. You have probably gone through the dreadful episode of waiting long for an elevator to come, and passage being interrupted by unreasonably frequent stops. Besides, it wastes space, since each elevator tube can only accommodate one elevator. This is why our Free-D Elevator System will revolutionize the present one. It consists of a large cylindrical tube, which can be divided into several smaller, imaginary sector-shaped tubes. In each small tube a large number of elevators move vertically by magnetic levitation. The elevators can also rotate from one tube to another, thereby avoiding collision. This innovative design will substantially increase the number of available elevators for given space. Most importantly, it is highly feasible.
Tharn Din-Alternative Energy Source of The Future
This scientific research project “Tharn Din - Alternative Energy Source of the Future” is directed toward producing a new type of soil charcoal. Tharn Din, with excellent combustibility. The experiments were divided into six steps. First, we selected soils of exceptional adhesion property Next, we looked into many different combustible materials for soil admixtures. Many different formulas of soils and admixtures were tested. The most promising formulas were then optimized for maximum combustibility. After which, the best formula was chosen and we further optimized its combustibility. Combustion and ignition rate and characteristics of this formula were investigated. And lastly the effect of surface area on combustible rate was examined. It was found that mud was the best adhesive and wood chip was the best admixture. Tharn Din made of one part of mud and 3 parts of wood chips released higher thermal energy than normal charcoals. We found that a special type of Thai soil, Din See-eaw, when mixed with wood chips created Tharn Din of exceptional combustibi1it Ignition and combustible rates are proportional to the surface area of Tharn Din.
