- EMBODIED ENERGY CALCULATION
Embodied energy : Sum of all energies required to produce goods or services. The concept is usually helpful in determining the efficiency of energy producing or energy saving devices. It also helps us to map the greenhouse emissions and check whether a product is contributing to global warming or not.
FORMULAE USED
1)Volume of cuboid = length X breadth X height
2)Volume of cylinder = pi X pow(r,2) X h
3)Total volume = Volume of individual X Quantity
4)Density = mass/volume
5)mass = density X volume
6)Total mass = mass of individual item X quantity
7)Net embodied energy = unit embodied energy X total mass

EMBODIEDENERGY(ALTERNATIVE MATERIAL)
Reductions in Embodied energy:
by using Alternative materials like,
1)Honey-comb cardboard instead of Foam sheet.
2)Polycarbonate instead of acrylic sheet.
3)Aluminum clamps instead of steel.
4)wood pulleys instead of plastic.
5)polyurethane instead of rubber belt.
6)polyethylene instead of nylon rod.
We can save a total of 211.038 MJ of embodied energy.
