The energy sources for man are drying up. The era of fossil fuels is going to end very soon. Scientists are now working on to find new renewable sources of energy. Along with renewable energy sources like light and wind comes gravity.
Gravity is a phenomenon that existed from the very beginning of the universe but only discovered by Sir Isaac Newton not more than 400 years ago. Recently scientists started generating energy from gravity.
The basic concept of a gravity power generating mechanism is simple. When a body goes down from a higher altitude to a lower one its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy via linear motion. This motion is converted circular motion and is then converted to electricity using a dynamo.
One challenge in this mechanism is about getting continuous supply of energy. A body cannot go downward infinitely, but for continuous power generation this practically impossible scenario is necessary.
An interesting solution for this problem was invented by Mr. Rajesh Mulchandani and he has applied for patent. He uses gravity and buoyancy of water to generate a continuous up and down motion. The mechanism consists of a water filled tank with 50-60meters high with 2 balanced masses capable of moving using both buoyancy and gravity.
You can see the full mechanism here http://powerfromgravity.com/invention.aspx.
gravity power generation mechanism
As a final year mechanical engineering project this may be too expensive. But there may be more simple ideas to generate motion continuously. Another example of such a mechanism can be found here. http://www.freepatentsonline.com/20090115195.pdf
Wish you all the best.

how much power will be produced in gravity method?
i like to improve this method. So i have more detail about it. Plz sent full details..
If we think only based on pulley mechanism then a/c to this dig. The motion will nt be continuous for longer time,and to make it comtinuous we have to supply external energy then it will be the fact that “energy is produce from energy…..”
I must appreciate that the combination of Gravity and Bouyancy concepts to produce energy is highly appreciable for feasible and pollution free production of energy. A/c to the model proposed by Rajesh sir, a water tank with a height of 50 to 60 meters cannot provide enough efficiency for producing power. More advanced technology is required to increase efficiency…
ITS OK BUT LIGHTLY PROBLAM IN THIS METHOUD FOR USING
Nice one… I have to implement this, plz send more details….
Nice one.. I need more details plz send me…
i like to improve this method. So i have more detail about it. Plz sent full details
How its continuous working system n spontaneous..????????
really nice concept
i jst like ths one,n i wil choose it as my project wrk.
this project is not able to produce the continuous energy, because after some time time the level of water become equal and so again we have to provide some energy by some eternal source….and the other things is that the the rate of production of energy is going to decrease time to time when the difference between the water level is going on decreasing…and the last thing is that we are not able to get constant rotation so if we use some gearbox to increase the number of rotation we are not able to get it…because its speed is not constant for rotating the shaft of generator………..
hi,i am a final yr mech. student . gonna do ma projects next sem ie.. from jan. onwards. i think i can choose ur project..
so, can u please sent the full details about this project to may mail id…
hi ,,, its very nice ,,using 2 forces bouyancy and gravity , bt devoloped power may not be continuous if it is ,,, please i want details ,, wt are the arrangements that u r going to do .
its agood idea >>>>>but it needs to applied practicully >>>>>>
thank for your idea
This is a nice idea…. i am quite interested in this project…. can you please provide me with some more matter about this topic…thanks for the topic
nice concept.i am going to do this project,can u send me the details.
GIVE ME THE DETAILS ABOUT THE PROJECT
PLEASE
NICE PROJECT SEND ME THE DETAILS ABOUT THE PROJECT
very good concept
nice concept.i am going to do this project,can u send me the details.
xlnt idea it`s innovative keep gng bt provide few more details so that we 2 can giv u sggstns to make ur dream cum true…………..
Nice thinking
GOOD IDEA !!!!
I NEED MORE
nice project, please send me the details of this project please, i am going to do this.
i need more ideas
I want to do this project, where can i do? send me more details on email plzzz
how can we made one time buoncy force is greater than gravity force and another time buoncy force is less than gravity force
Really its a nice concept, using non-conventional sources and generate power is always interesting…
if u can, please send me some information about this topic in details..
how the loaded liquid transfers from 1 side 2 other.
NICE IDEA
i want to do this project as my project..please send me details..
i liked this idea…i am final yr student i like to do this project can you send full details about this idea..
nice idea plz send me more information about that project plzz
NICE IDEA PLZ SEND ME MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS PROJECT
i want to do this project as my project..please send me details
there is no doubt that itz a splendid approach towards the environment friendly production of energy, but my question is that , can this idea should have more efficiency than the methods used now a days, and if it is then can we make a prototype of this arrangement on small scale for our final year engineering projects. its so nice of you if you help me out in this.
very good idea…….can u send me more details plz…..
i am a final year mechanical student, i want to do this project …..so please give me more details of this mechanism.
i want to do this project as my project..please send me details
y dont u try some kind of horizontal suspension on d walls on either side n place some plate of dead weigth at distance so that dey hit d suspension n are repeld causin no dicipation of enery frum renergy concpt n for dis to hapn u need to use a spring whose ‘k’ value is some wat more than d bodies tied a t d end hope dis may b of use to ya
n good work!!!!
it good work!
i want to do this project as my project..please send me details,,, how can I make,,,, ?????
this s good one.. please send me detail
Kindly mail me more details…nice work..tnx
how iz possible
HAI I LIKE YOUR PROJECT I WANT TO IMPLEMENT IT FURTHER SO PLESE SEND ME THE DETAILS TO MY EMAIL ID
