I am shocked, and speechless.. See that last sentence, oh my nigeria! Its so unfortunate!
Oh well, what do you expect when you bring a person straight out of prison to rule a country. Sad!
So no foreign investors willing to come here, to top it, insecurity completely blocks the chances.
So sad!

Dambudzo: Do you know the number of poles in the motor ?

Unfortunately I don't know much about the my generator "motor"
Why do you ask?

I just finished the last design!! I hope!
My head aches am tired, its not easy with this fasting as well.
Anyways, am not going to look at it again or look anything up online.. I hope I can finally, concentrate on school work like everybody else.
Upload them tomorrow! I need some sleep.

Liar, just googled it.

Inalilahi wa inailahi rajoon! Where is your source?
What is just happening now, I also heard IBB is dead! Bt I think its a rumor sha.

Its not much but hey, johnny walker or whatever his name is said "journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step"
Well this is my first step.
However, the charge controller is finished.. Techinically
Its just remaining astetics, the case for it and finishing it up. I'll also upload the pics of that later on together with the circuit diagram.

Ok, so I have started the fabrication.
I had to, if not I would have changed the design over and over and over!
Even now that I have started I still changed somethings, I have a pic of what I started with, you need the design pics to understand what is going on, that I will upload later when I get to school.

tomakint: The above questions have been flying around for a long time now, the Muslim North because of their expansive landmass have always thought that should mean bigger populations than any other parts of the country. They have been living under this false belief for a long time to come, but this is erroneous to me especially when one considers the fact that many Muslims are fast turning to Christians at an exponential rate just check out the numbers of[b] Wasius, Mojeeds, Akeems, Ibrahims, Aishats, Maryams,[/b] etc that are all over our Churches and you will marvel at what the ratio of Christians to Muslims will be in Nigeria of today! According to “Bible Probe” a few years ago, Al-Jazeera reported that roughly six million Muslims are leaving Islam and becoming followers of Jesus every year in Africa.
I wouldn’t mind if someone can supply the current ratio between the two (Of course, except it has been updated. The last time I checked, Muslims were higher in percentage - 2006 statistics courtesy Encarta 2009 edition). I have a convinced feeling that Christians are more now!

From the bolded, its obviously thoes yoruba "muslims" that from the begining did not take the islam religion seriously. They where just going by it but were never truely muslims.
Now to your question, I believe it should be fairly even now. Even though you'd expect muslims to be more because of tradition and religious beliefs. Like it being legal for a muslim to marry up to 4 wives n a chisrtan just 1. The muslims especially those of norther nigeria have a lot of children etc.

They stop those stuwpid boys from molesting young girls, what you call "fun".
Besides, what are they suppose to do with the little resources they are giving?
Beggers! Don't you think that's a lil degrading? Some may be advanced in age, but calling them beggers is just condersending.
It might look like they're not doing much but lets give them credit for the little they do.

Arrggghhhh!!! After spending so much time in designing my blades, carving them is now more of a challenge..
Work shop guys are shying away from it, I can't do it my self because I have school work.
I obviously can't go give it to a road side carpenter because it requires a high degree of precision.
So annoying!

Bois.. Smh
Looking for the slightest chance to take advantage of a girl.
Its unfortunate what she did, the punishment however is harsh and uncalled for.
Where are the security, they should handle things like this not students.

serrajay: This is a nice project, i wish you could spend much time on the blade design, as that is what determines the performance of the turbine.
check out this site http://www.mdpub.com/Wind_Turbine/index.html

Thanks for the link.
I actually am goint to make a new set of blades, out of wood. Choose a nice airfoil and carve them to increase the efficiency areodynamically.
If I get enough time, then I can compare the result from two blades.

Mynd_44: I am just checking it. Been too busy

No wahala..
I hope it helps.

I think I know who I am going to vote for in 2015.
See the man, just a colonel and he got pot belly, why our military men no smart and day combatant like military men of thoes days??

Seconded..
Lests see if this will make front page?
I bet you my it wouldn't.

Haha!! I laff in niger!
How naija wan ever progress?? If you check it out, the refinery probly is owned by a nigerian or nigerians have most of the stock. Smh

Mynd_44: I am sending you a mail right now

You got mail.

With all the grand slams, it wasn't boring at all.
I got to see the soft side of murry and roger kids, nadals ass kicked
Roger that!

Seems people don't need to go to pilot school to fly planes anymore.
Thank God nobody was hurt.

Mynd_44: bro how far have you gone with your project? I am still writing exams so time it is sort of difficult to keep up here

Not bad bro, I am due to start construction tomorrow.God willing. I just hope my supervisor would sign off on it, he kinda slowing me down.
I have changed my design again, to something much more direct, it might not be as sexy looking as the former but hope it gets the job done
Good luck with your exams..

Who is this man, n why are you guys puting it on this section?

Who is he?
And why is this on the religion section??

homerac7: u r doing good bro. keep it up

Thanks bro.

Ok so, I know its been long since I made my last post.
I have been hustling wind data from my local airport. Luckily I was able to acquired it today. Imagine I couldn't get complete data from state NIMET or somthing like that, but they were helpful and very nice, they didn't give me much trouble as I anticipated.
Anyways, I got the data and was able to calculate my average wind speed, as well as my TSR and some other minor calculations.
I just want to read a lil bit more on aerodynamics of the blades before I design the blades.
So that's where I satand at the moment, I'll update more frequently from here on out.

Mynd_44: i intend to power a small fan with it or a television. Noting fancy

Cool.
That means your going to use an inverter.

Mynd_44: ^^
According to the OP, security light

I was talking aout you.

The internet is an amazing place, you can get almost anything there.
Just work on it, do a lot of reaearch and if you have a specific area were you have problem then you can ask for help, but now you just gave the topic title and it sound like you want us to help you with the whole project.

Wish you all the best bro..

Mynd_44: What sources are you looking at? Solar, wind, or the basic public power?

What are you going to use it to power?

[size=13pt] you are at an interview with 10 different people applying for the same position, the interviwer asks.
Why should I employ you and no any of the other applicants..
Forget all the I am better
Hard working
Team player
Cambidge and oxford certs.
Cuz all the other applicants would give the same stories..

My question is how would you answer this to make you stand out and not sound stup.I'd?[/size]

Nadoson: Im hapy dat nigeria is growin technocaly 2ru nigarian engineering graduates. I graduated as a fully practical Mechanical engineer. My 1st project was AUTOMATED HYDRAULIC JACK & my 2nd in group was COMPUTERISED HEAT TREATMENT FURNACE.
But i was d 1 designed & fabricated d mechanical aspect of d 2nd project. Pls if u need help on mechanical ,den i would lik 2 b of help tnx. 08039300363 or nadolink@yahoo.com Goodluck. May God help u 2 finish wot u stated.

Thanks bro, I'll sure give you a call..

Vergil: Funny! Didn't always think a motor can double as a generator. Hmm!

Wondered why u all were saying "motors", instead of "generators"

Guess it makes sense. Since the science is similar/the same.

Your right, that was before I got one, the aim was to get a motor that could be used as a generator, but now that I have it, is no more motor but generator..

[size=13pt]I hope you guys know he's most likely going to see this thread.[/size]

Him talk true, but the title of the thread makes it sound like he is sympathizng with BH, where-as he's just stating the obvious fact.
My only problem is since thy know what's wrong and what needs to be done, why aren't they doing it?
