  • Greensteam Design Report
    Greensteam Design Report Double-acting Compound - Phase I Tae Rugh Fall 2020 Initial design CAD, renders, and motivation This is a 2 stage double-acting inline compound engine. This engine replaces the traditional cross-slide by extending the piston rod through the back end of the cylinder, thereby supporting the piston on either end. This increases the amount of required seals by two, but reduces moving mass and engine complexity. Steam enters the high pressure cylinder on both ends through bash valves. After high pressure expansion, steam exits through uniflow ports into a manifold which goes to the low pressure cylinder. Here, the semi-expanded steam expands again before finally exiting through uniflow exhaust ports into the atmosphere. The timing between high and low pressure pistons is slightly offset such that for the first ~5-10% of low pressure power stroke, the low pressure piston acts as a pump to improve the exhaust performance of the high pressure cylinder. For this portion, the low pressure piston is actually doing negative work, but the hope is that this produces more efficiency gains in the exhaust process to offset these losses. This claim is not too far-fetched considering, for example, internal combustion engines also incorporate an exhaust stroke in which the piston acts as a pump to remove the exhaust gas. Of course, this mechanism will need to be validated with further calculations. Part Breakdown The crankshaft has overhung cranks on either end, much like bicycle pedals, in order to avoid the manufacturing complexities that accompany traditional (non-overhung) cranks. o The cranks are offset from each other (currently at 120 )​ such that the low pressure piston is ​ slightly ahead of the high pressure piston, which induces the vacuum pump function of the low pressure piston.

  • Greensteam Design Report: Double-Acting Uniflow Engine Part
    Greensteam Design Report: Double-acting Uniflow Engine Tae Rugh, Summer 2020 This is a single-cylinder double-acting uniflow engine with bash valve actuation. The cylinder has steam inlets on both sides, so that while one side is in power stroke, the other is in return stroke. The bash mechanism means that this engine does not need to draw from the shaft’s rotation for valve timing, which significantly reduces the complexity and number of moving parts. The drawback is that control of inlet cutoff is severely limited by geometry such that the inlet must be open before top dead center for the same amount of time as it remains open after top dead center. A single uniflow exhaust port is located in the center of the cylinder block and used for both sides. Part Breakdown The driveshaft consists of an overhung crank, flywheel, and shaft. The crank is overhung in order to reduce complexities in manufacturing. A bronze bushing is pressed into the crank and holds the crank pin, which is pressed into the piston’s connecting rod. The crank is secured to the shaft by a cotter pin. The flywheel is set to the shaft by two set screws, angled at 45°. The cylinder block includes the piston chamber, uniflow exhaust ports, and bash valves. An inner cylinder sleeve is used to maximize the area for exhaust to escape while maintaining guiding rails to keep the piston aligned. The groove on the inner cylinder allows exhaust exiting through any of the slots to continue to flow out through the exhaust port in the cylinder block.

  • Bicentenary Programme Celebrating the Life and Legacy of James Watt
    Bicentenary programme celebrating the life and legacy of James Watt 2019 marks the 200th anniversary of the death of the steam engineer James Watt (1736-1819), one of the most important historic figures connected with Birmingham and the Midlands. Born in Greenock in Scotland in 1736, Watt moved to Birmingham in 1774 to enter into a partnership with the metalware manufacturer Matthew Boulton. The Boulton & Watt steam engine was to become, quite literally, one of the drivers of the Industrial Revolution in Britain and around the world. Although best known for his steam engine work, Watt was a man of many other talents. At the start of his career he worked as both a mathematical instrument maker and a civil engineer. In 1780 he invented the first reliable document copier. He was also a talented chemist who was jointly responsible for proving that water is a compound rather than an element. He was a member of the famous Lunar Portrait of James Watt by Sir Thomas Lawrence, 1812 Society of Birmingham, along with other Photo by Birmingham Museums Trust leading thinkers such as Matthew Boulton, Erasmus Darwin, Joseph Priestley and The 2019 James Watt Bicentenary Josiah Wedgwood. commemorative programme is The Boulton & Watt steam engine business coordinated by the Lunar Society. was highly successful and Watt became a We are delighted to be able to offer wealthy man.

  • Engine Reversing When Running at Manoeuvring Speeds
    09 REVERSING Part I - General Diesel engines intended for the propulsion of ship fitted with neither a controllable pitch propeller nor a reversing gearbox are made in direct reversing form. Astern running involves carrying out the events of the cycle in the reverse order, i.e. altering the timing of valves and fuel pumps to cause them to start the engine in the opposite direction and then continue its operating cycle in this direction. Fill in the missing word Part I - General Diesel engines intended for the propulsion of ship fitted with neither a ________________ nor a reversing gearbox are made in ________________ form. ________________ involves carrying out the events of the cycle in the reverse order, i.e. altering the _____________ and fuel pumps to cause them to start the engine in the opposite direction and then continue its ________________ in this direction. Using the diagram below describe the timing of a two-stroke diesel engine The propeller thrust must be reversible in order to do manoeuvring of a ship. Usually manoeuvring is done while entering a port or leaving a port. In case of a controllable pitch propeller an unidirectional engine is sufficient. In case of limited power systems like medium speed engines of high speed engines, clutches and reverse gears may be used. But in large diesel engines, the main engines must be reversible and should be able to produce thrust efficiently in both the directions ( ahead and astern ) To reverse an engine the engine cycle may require re-timing. Large diesel engines have scavenge ports which controls the scavenge timing.

  • Greensteam Report: Valve Actuation Systems & Further Research Tae Rugh, Summer 2020
    Greensteam Report: Valve Actuation Systems & Further Research Tae Rugh, Summer 2020 Valve Actuation Systems Greensteam aims to design a modern steam engine that maximizes simplicity and frugality while maintaining high energy efficiency. The valve actuation mechanism presents one of the most important design challenges in achieving this objective. A number of potential options have been designed, each with its advantages and drawbacks. Cam/Poppet The classic option--a staple for internal combustion engines--is the cam/poppet valve system. Unlike internal combustion engines which typically have a separate belt-driven camshaft, we can simply attach the cam to the crankshaft to reduce complexity. As the crankshaft rotates, the cam’s asymmetric shape pushes the cam follower rod up which opens a poppet valve to allow inlet steam to enter the cylinder. This system has superior sealing qualities and reliability. The drawbacks are that it can be complex to manufacture (high precision is required for the poppet head, poppet seat, and cam), it requires a heavy spring to maintain contact between the follower and cam (which reduces efficiency), and a separate poppet valve is necessary for each cylinder (meaning more moving parts). The cam shape determines the engine’s timing, but it is constrained by a number of variables. The first constraint is cutoff (cutoff is the percentage of the powerstroke duration in which steam is allowed to enter). For a 20% cutoff, the incline and decline must occur within 38° of the cam’s rotation. The second constraint is that the height offset must be sufficient for the desired inlet flow rate.
