Director Stan Hywet Inner Circle Club Projects, Editor “Northern Lights” n this issue of “Northern Lights” you’ll find reviews of three separate driving events, plus full coverage of the 25716 Osborne Rd. Columbia Station, OH 44028 9852 Ravenna Rd. Twinsburg, OH 44056 Iannual Stan Hywet Father’s Day Car Show. I mention this because events like these are what the CCCA is all 440-668-3763 216-849-5263 about: getting out and enjoying your Classic car. And while it may seem obvious, too often we seem to lose touch [email protected] [email protected] with the roots of the club, which was largely founded on using our vintage cars as cars. So many Full Classics are stashed away in garages and barns, waiting to return to the road—or worse, relegated to trailer-only status. Even Mike Dube Melanie Harwood Secretary, Editor “High Beam” Public Relations, Co-Editor “Northern Lights” with the addition of the 1915-1925 vehicles to the Roster, there’s not a single Full Classic that isn’t a very road- 3178 Robin St. Ravenna, OH 44266 Stan Hywet Registrar, Sponsorship Chairperson worthy automobile.

The study will also include the design of a turbo-generator unit which optimizes electrical production from this proposed mode of operation. Environmental issues associated with the placement of a flexible dam into a tidal flow will be analyzed in terms of regulatory licensing requirements. The applicability of this proposed mode of operation will be addressed as part of expected project benefits from the development potential of this concept. The eligibility standard as expressed in published responses within the Federal Connect network for this grant application directly addressed the issue of diversionary structures as excerpted below: DOE will not consider any application under this FOA for the development of a technology that would require blocking or severely altering existing tidal or river flows, as this would be considered a dam or diversionary structure. -

Hydroelectric Power Generator
HYDROELECTRIC POWER GENERATOR MIME 1501 Technical Design Report Hydroelectric Power Generator Project #SP02 Final Report Design Advisor: Prof. Gorlov Design Team Anthony Chesna, Tony DiBella, Tim Hutchins, Saralyn Kropf, Jeff Lesica, Jim Mahoney May 29, 2002 Department of Mechanical, Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering College of Engineering, Northeastern University Boston, MA 02115 5 HYDROELECTRIC POWER GENERATOR FOR SMALL VESSELS AND REMOTE STATIONS LOCATED NEAR WATER Design Team Anthony Chesna, Tony Dibella, Timothy Hutchins Saralyn Kropf, Jeff Lesica, James Mahoney Design Advisor Prof. A. M. Gorlov Abstract The objective of this Northeastern University Capstone Design project is to design a hydroelectric power generator to charge batteries on small water vessels. This product will replace devices using non- renewable fossil fuels by utilizing the Gorlov Helical turbine to capture kinetic energy from moving water. Power consumption of a sailing vessel could be 250 Watts or higher. Sailing vessels currently use their engines to recharge on-board batteries, which supply the sailing vessel with electrical power. A renewable electrical production device would allow sailing vessels to recharge on board batteries without having to continually restock fuel and burn fossil fuels. The use of the Gorlov Helical Turbine provides the means to harness the power of moving water with an efficiency of 30 percent or greater. The increased efficiency of the turbine is a direct result of the helical arrangement of the airfoil blades, which eliminates the vibration problems of its predecessor, the Darrieus Turbine. Eliminating vibration increases the life of the turbine by decreasing fatigue and creating a steady flow of electrical current. The design consists of an electrical generator, a transmission system, a supporting structure and the Gorlov Helical Turbine. -

This month, Terry Bond’s “Still Collecting” article is about automotive racing-related collectibles. Read the article on Pages 10-11. August 2019 THE MUDFLAP In case you missed last month’s Dinner Meeting, Behind the Wayne Milligan and I spoke about our club Bylaws and how portions of them have been revised and updated. Wheel These proposed revisions and updates have been approved Matt Doscher by your Board, but we still need your help. The Bylaws TRAACA President require a 30-day’s notice to all members stating the [email protected] proposed revisions and updates. Please take a few minutes (757) 448-7048 to read the proposed version of our Bylaws; it is only a short 10-page read. Bob Stein has included this in his past The TRAACA’s 46th Annual Meet is coming up on few editions of The Mud Speck. My desire is to be able to Saturday, September 28, at the Military Aviation Museum vote on and accept these Bylaws at this month’s Dinner in Virginia Beach. The Annual Meet is our biggest Meeting, but I can’t do it without a quorum of our activity of the year and requires volunteers in order to be a membership. A quorum constitutes 20% of our 336 successful event. As Dick Chipchak would say, “many members which equates to 67 members needed in hands make light work!” Meet Co-Chairs Marion McAlpine attendance at this month’s Dinner Meeting. -
