The second of three labs typically consists of data acquisition and the real world measurements of concepts learned in the classes at the freshman and sophomore level. This small electric motor dynamometer was designed to be a table top lab setup allowing students to familiarize themselves with forces, torques, angular velocity and the sensors used to measure those quantities, i.e.

While the electrical components are all isolated from the user and covered by various insulations, it is still possible to come into contact with potential lethal amounts of current. The designer and builders of this car have taken great measures to ensure this will not happen, but nothing is fool proof. This being said, no changes should be made to the system without training in electrical safety and a thorough understanding of the overall system. The following include the steps that should be undertaken to begin driving the vehicle. Only one person may occupy the vehicle at any given time, hence the reason there is only one seat, however it should be noted that at least three individuals will be required to ensure safest operation of the vehicle. 1. Place blocks or stops in front and behind one of the wheels to ensure the vehicle does not move while interacting with the bottom shell. 2. Un-latch and lift the top carbon fiber shell from the vehicle and secure the top with the mounted poles in the vehicle.

THE first edition of this work was published in 1893 and met with an unexpected and unprecedented sale, and a second edition was placed upon the market in less than ten months. So much new matter was added that it was found necessary to reset the entire work in smaller type in order to keep the volume within the price at which it was originally placed on the market. It is the first and only book, of which the author has any knowledge, which illustrates and describes modern American tools for the watchmaker and jeweler. The ambitious workman is always in search of knowl- edge, in search of new ideas, new tools and new methods. Patient study, constant practice and ambition are requisite to become pro- ficient in any art. The demand for skilled workmen is constantly increasing, and a person wishing to thoroughly master any art, must be to a certain extent capable of self instruction. To be proficient in any art a man must not be deft of touch alone, but the head must also play its part.

The current-to-torque and frequency-to-speed relationships of BLDC motors are linear. BLDC motors may be described as stepper motors, with fixed permanent magnets and possibly more poles on the rotor than the stator, or reluctance motors. The latter may be without permanent magnets, just poles that are induced on the rotor then pulled into alignment by timed stator windings. However, the term stepper motor tends to be used for motors that are designed specifically to be operated in a mode where they are frequently stopped with the rotor in a defined angular position; this page describes more general BLDC motor principles, though there is overlap.

Työssä tällaista venettä nimitetään sähköveneeksi. Sähköveneily ei ole aivan uusi keksintö, mutta kirjallisuutta ja tutkimuksia sähköveneistä ei juurikaan ole. Siksi tämä työ on tarpeellinen. Tämän opinnäytetyön tarkoituksena on ollut selvittää sähköveneilyn historiaa ja sähköveneiden esiintyneisyyttä yleisesti, sekä sähköveneiden erilaisia kehittymismahdollisuuksia ja tulevaisuuden näkymiä. Opinnäytetyössä on perehdytty sähköveneen tärkeimpiin pääkomponentteihin ja näiden teknisiin vaikutuksiin ja kehitykseen. Lisäksi on perehdytty sähkömoottoreiden ja polttomoottoreiden eroihin, sähkömoottorin toimintaperiaatteeseen ja selvitetty, minkälaisia sähkövenetapahtumia maailmalla on. Työssä on vertailtu akkujen ominaisuuksia, erilaisia sähköperämoottoreita ja tehty vertailu polttomoottorista ja sähkömoottorista maailman nopeimmassa sähköveneessä. Työn tuloksena saatiin selville, että sähköveneellä on pitkä ja värikäs historia ja sähkövenetyyppejä on kehitelty monenlaisia. Sähköveneen akkuja

We built a robust, modular telemetry system which records sensor data about the boat’s performance. Data points are displayed live in the boat, transmitted over radio to a shore computer, and stored in a database for later analysis. This system is used to transmit the throttle and controls for the boat, allowing our team to use control algorithms to follow a power budget. On the mechanical systems side, we improved our outboard motor to use a simplified direct drive and interchangeable motor system. Our outboard motor has been modified to accommodate propellers up to 14”. The ability to change motor and propeller on the same outboard assembly gives our team a large amount of flexibility. Each of these changes was implemented in response to events of the previous year. At the end of last year, our team suffered a setback that prevented us from attending competition. During testing, we overheated our motor and were not able to secure a replacement in time for competition.

  • The Axial-Flux PMDC Motor
    The Axial-Flux PMDC Motor Sometime in the mid- to late ‘70s, a gangly young man who’d left school at around age 6 had some interesting ideas about how to build an electric motor… something he’d been fascinated with since picking up a children’s science book describing how to build a motor with a cork and a needle. winding coils around them, strapping it all together He tested out this idea by flattening out tin cans, design, and cobbling it into what was essentially a plywoodin what amounted framed go-cart to a unique for a competition “axial flux” motor hosted by the UK’s Battery Electric Vehicle Association in 1983.

Prousalidis Associate Professor N.T.U.A. of Marine Electrical Engineering March 2017 1 Acknowledgments For his assistance, consultation and encouragement during my thesis preparations, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to my supervisor, Professor J.M. Prousalidis. In addition, I owe special thanks to PhD candidate, D. Spathis, for his support, valuable information and advices that he kindly offered. Last but not least, my utmost thankfulness extends to my family for their patience and full support during my studies. 2 © Copyright by Bakirtzoglou Christos 2017 All Rights Reserved 3 Abstract Humanity by necessity is being forced to reduce its carbon footprint and invest in operations aimed at limiting emissions and improving resource efficiency in order to achieve sustainable growth. Air pollution and climate change are intertwined and they have also started occurring. Ports, coastal cities and their local communities are amongst the most vulnerable to extreme weather conditions resulting from them. The concept of the all‐electric‐ship seems to be the optimal solution from shipping sector. The all‐electric‐ ship design which aims at supporting and promoting energy efficiency, if powered from electricity generated from renewable sources may claim to be a 100% zero‐emission transportation mean.

  • Hydrogen-Electric Motorcycle
    HHyyddrrooggeenn--EElleeccttrriicc MMoottoorrccyyccllee Final Project Report Designers: Dave Berkey, Josh Bitterman, Darren LeBlanc Michelle Lehman, Kevin McGarvey Sponsor: Electrion, Inc., Messiah College Collaboratory Advisor: Dr. Don Pratt May 13, 2002 2 Abstract “The number of vehicles on our roads and the number of miles driven by those vehicles are growing at an accelerating rate, resulting in increased national petroleum consumption and air pollution.” (Sutula, 2) In response to these problematic trends, new vehicles are being introduced to achieve better fuel efficiency while producing fewer harmful emissions. In view of this need, this project has worked in collaboration with Electrion Inc. to develop a personal transportation device using hydrogen, a zero- emissions fuel. The main focus of our team lied in the mechanical and electrical aspects of a small motorcycle, or scooter, rather than the implementation of the hydrogen fuel. With a prototype of the scooter provided for us by our industry contact, Dr. Joseph Kejha, we have made improvements to his design in order to solve several performance-limiting problems. The bulk of our work falls into three main areas of design: the body, the steering, and the electrical system. The body design, or chassis design, was accomplished using finite element analysis software, in which we were able to assess our material choice and analyze our frame design in order to construct the most efficient body. Our steering system will simply improve upon the present steering column and its actuation mechanism. The electrical aspect of this project incorporates the design of a system integrating Lithium Polymer batteries with the electric motor and overall control system.
