Abstract
The purpose of this research is to design a self-circulation residence near Greenland using fully renewable energy and dead water effect. Special values in terms of commercial for Greenland lead to the increase of local population. Previous investigations mainly study the particular dead water effect phenomenon neglecting the utilization of this influence, which may provide energy for local residence. This research implements electromagnetic induction to design a power generation equipment and self-circulation system. Final results show that the designed device could successfully produce power using dead water effect occurring in Greenland. In addition, a building utilizing self-circulation system is also devised to achieve energy circulation. In conclusion, dead water effect could be used to generate electricity and some special places have the potential to realize energy circulation.Keywords
