Abstract:
On emergent demand for a new source of efficient energy, a new source of renewable energy from lightning return stroke is a possible contributor to solve the energy crisis. The main objective of this study is to overcome the limitation and problems with detection, harvesting the lightning energy and store within a very short time. For detection purpose, based on the real time lightning detection system, light and infrasonic sound of lightning is used, and infrasonic sound is used for software designing to detect the lightning. With the help of Marx Generator a mock lightning is developed and a mathematical model is incorporated to understand and determine the characteristics of lightning through comprehensive simulation. Regarding the storage segment a high speed switching circuit is blueprinted and simulated with the help of Microcontroller and IGBT to store the energy in super capacitors within the desired time. The driving principal and software design of the proposed system are clarified in this paper. The simulation results corroborate the potency of the schemed method.
