At just a gram and eight millimetres, Srikakulam researcher’s wind turbine enters International Book of Records
Maheswaram Bhanu Chandhar builds the silent turbine from copper sheets, a small DC motor and enamel paint, and sees a future for it in space and robotics
A remarkable wind turbine, measuring only eight millimetres in height and weighing a gram, has earned recognition from the International Book of Records. Maheswaram Bhanu Chandhar, a young researcher from Srikakulam district, created the turbine using copper sheets, a small DC motor, and a touch of enamel paint. Despite its diminutive size, the turbine operates silently and has been acknowledged for its innovative design.
Upon receiving the certificate from the International Book of Records, Chandhar expressed his excitement, sharing that the turbine holds potential in the fields of space technology and robotics. His research primarily focuses on smart grids and renewable energy systems, with a future goal of conducting extensive research on green energy and sharing his knowledge with students.
The Sri Sivani College of Engineering in Chilakapalem, where Chandhar teaches in the Electrical and Electronics Engineering department, celebrated his achievement by congratulating him on the recognition.
