| Summary: | Given the importance of energy consumption and management, humanity is increasingly inclined towards renewable energy sources such as solar power and the reuse of wasted energy. MCHPs (Micro Combined Heat and Power systems) are growing systems designed and produced to utilize wasted energy. In this project, a new design for MCHPs was considered, with the aim of constructing a prototype capable of generating electricity from a steam-powered generator. To ensure the stability of the generator's output, the method of enhancing the generator's core using Heusler compounds was investigated. Two Heusler compounds, Co2MnSi and Fe2MnSi, were synthesized using arc melting and mechanical alloying methods and were used as the generator core in the MCHP. The synthesized cores were analyzed using VSM, XRD, and SEM techniques, which confirmed the formation of crystalline phases and the achievement of desirable magnetic properties. In addition to these two compounds, other cores such as iron filings, iron powder, and cobalt were also analyzed. Among the tested cores, iron filings showed a higher increase in voltage. Finally, the Fe2MnSi core was placed inside the turbine generator of the MCHP system and re-evaluated, showing a 0.07% increase in voltage. |
