1. The Outback Charger
Group 1 : Breanna Heffernan, Jeremy Kinney, Marty McKenna, Jennifer Nelson, Cameron Turner

2. idea Charger to be used in remote locations No electricity necessary
Cost efficient

3. Alternative solutions
USB Chargers
-Cost
Body Heat Charger
-Low power produced
Stirling Engines
-Cost, Pressure

4. The design Progress
separated for safety reasons from electrical section
Current outline of our present design

5. Design progress 4 USB ports
-4 USB ports wired in series to charge multiple devices at once
1N4001 diode
-Factor of safety
Regulator Chip
-Influenced by Dr. Comeau
7805 voltage regulator regulates voltages to 5V which is what a USB needs
Paul recommended more USB ports
Researched data sheet for 1n4001 diode states that it can handle up to 50V and a typical phone battery is only 5V, this gives us a factor of safety of 10
Known chip, Frank suggested it

6. DESIGN PROGRESS CON’T Direct current generator Pistons
-Rough estimate of size

7. Outline of goals
Solve for work to be put into system to achieve desired RPM
Design and dimension boiler
-Safety shutoff valve, steam condenser
Design and dimension check valves
Research materials for casing
Steam leakage outlet

8. Consultations Dr. Frank Comeau Dr. Carl Adams
