| Abstract | This paper considers the energy generation potential from swing and revolving door use. This involved modelling the mechanical work available from the single use of swing and revolving doors through consideration of the doors motion using Matlab. The equations of motion of swing and revolving doors were presented and several sources of harvestable mechanical energy were explored. The impact on the motion and energy generation potential of several parameters such as the door mass, door width and damping of the generator were considered. It was found that door use has potential for electrical energy generation. For a swing door somewhere in the region of 10 J could be expected from a single action. A revolving door was found to offer significantly greater potential were a user to rotate the door by 180°, this would be in the region of 40 J. This equates to an upper limit for the total energy generation potential over a 1 min period of 138 J for a swing door and 331 J for a revolving door. It was concluded that potential for the generation of electrical energy exists from door use. It was determined that this will be dependent on the generation method chosen and the type of door used, where revolving doors offer significantly more potential than swing doors for both a single occasion door use and over a 1 min period. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
