  • Abstract 1. Introduction 2. Robert Stirling
    Stirling Stuff Dr John S. Reid, Department of Physics, Meston Building, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen AB12 3UE, Scotland Abstract Robert Stirling’s patent for what was essentially a new type of engine to create work from heat was submitted in 1816. Its reception was underwhelming and although the idea was sporadically developed, it was eclipsed by the steam engine and, later, the internal combustion engine. Today, though, the environmentally favourable credentials of the Stirling engine principles are driving a resurgence of interest, with modern designs using modern materials. These themes are woven through a historically based narrative that introduces Robert Stirling and his background, a description of his patent and the principles behind his engine, and discusses the now popular model Stirling engines readily available. These topical models, or alternatives made ‘in house’, form a good platform for investigating some of the thermodynamics governing the performance of engines in general. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Introduction 2016 marks the bicentenary of the submission of Robert Stirling’s patent that described heat exchangers and the technology of the Stirling engine. James Watt was still alive in 1816 and his steam engine was gaining a foothold in mines, in mills, in a few goods railways and even in pioneering ‘steamers’. Who needed another new engine from another Scot? The Stirling engine is a markedly different machine from either the earlier steam engine or the later internal combustion engine. For reasons to be explained, after a comparatively obscure two centuries the Stirling engine is attracting new interest, for it has environmentally friendly credentials for an engine. This tribute introduces the man, his patent, the engine and how it is realised in example models readily available on the internet.

  • Electronics 101
    Electronics 101 NANT – New York John Sweeny OFF Saturday – September 28th, 2013 Is this your understanding of a Dialysis Machine? 2 Electricity is intimidating because… Human aren’t equipped to detect it …until it’s to late ! You have five senses: ◦ See (10,000 volts) ◦ Hear (5,000 volts) ◦ Taste (???) ◦ Smell (ozone from movement in air) ◦ Feel ( a/c > 20 volts, static > 3,000 volts) Skin is your best protection if it’s dry. Electricity tends to flow on the outside of the body. The heart is mid-torso. 3 Basic Electron Characteristics 4 Electrical Terminology Coulomb (Q) – mks system’s unit of charge. 1 coulom b of charge passing a point in a wire in 1 second equals one ampere. 1 coulomb = 6.24 x 1018 electrons ◦ Charles Augustin Coulomb (1736 – 1806) Volt (()V) – measure of ppgyotential energy in an electric field. 1 volt = one joule of energy per one coulomb of charge. (1 watt = 1 joule/second) ◦ Alessandro Volta (1745 – 1827) ◦ Created the first chemical battery 5 Electrical Terminology Ampere (I) – The unit of current = a “flow rate” of one coulomb per second in a wire ◦ Andre Marie Ampere (1775 – 1836) ◦ Established the relationshippy between electricity and magnetism. Ohm (R or Ω) – the unit of resistance = 1 ohm is the ratio of one volt/one ampere. The reciproca l of resistance is conductance. ◦ Georgg( Simon Ohm (1789 – 1854) ◦ Discovered the direct proportionality of current in a conductor to the voltage applied (V = IR, R = V/I, I = V/R) 6 Electrical Terminology Watt – Unit of power in the mks system.

  • Feeling Joules and Watts
    FEELING JOULES AND WATTS OVERVIEW & PURPOSE Power was originally measured in horsepower – literally the number of horses it took to do a particular amount of work. James Watt developed this term in the 18th century to compare the output of steam engines to the power of draft horses. This allowed people who used horses for work on a regular basis to have an intuitive understanding of power. 1 horsepower is about 746 watts. In this lab, you’ll learn about energy, work and power – including your own capacity to do work. Energy is the ability to do work. Without energy, nothing would grow, move, or ​ change. Work is using a force to move something over some distance. ​ ​ work = force x distance Energy and work are measured in joules. One joule equals the work done (or energy ​ ​ used) when a force of one newton moves an object one meter. One newton equals the ​ ​ force required to accelerate one kilogram one meter per second squared. How much energy would it take to lift a can of soda (weighing 4 newtons) up two meters? work = force x distance = 4N x 2m = 8 joules Whether you lift the can of soda quickly or slowly, you are doing 8 joules of work (using 8 joules of energy). It’s often helpful, though, to measure how quickly we are ​ ​ doing work (or using energy). Power is the amount of work (or energy used) in a given ​ ​ amount of time. http://www.rdcep.org/demo-collection page 1 work power = time Power is measured in watts. One watt equals one joule per second.

It has been suggested that the Bagdad Kirchhoff’s Current Law Battery discovered in 1938 near Bagdad was the first Watts Law battery. The Bagdad battery may have been used by Persians over 2000 years ago for electroplating. To better understand these laws a clear knowledge of the electrical terms referred to by the laws is necessary.

    Word Power two units will give you the rest of the equation. If one is above the other, divide. If the remaining two are beside each other, multiply. P (watts) Renewable Energy Terms I E (amps) (volts) Watts = Volts x Amps Power Equation PowerPower LawLaw Ian Woofenden ©2000 Ian Woofenden Derivation: The watt, volt, and amp are named after So there are really three forms of the same equation: three well-known people in the history of energy— Watts = Volts x Amps James Watt, Alessandro Volta, and Andre Ampere. This equation does not seem to have a formal Volts = Watts ÷ Amps name, so I’ll just call it the “power equation.” Amps = Watts ÷ Volts To understand the power equation, you need to We can use this equation to do lots of common understand what power is. Power is the rate at which electrical computations. For example, if a motor is energy is generated or used. Though no analogy is drawing 20 amps at 12 volts, we know that it’s using perfect, energy is like miles traveled, while power is like energy at the rate of 240 watts (watts = volts x amps). If the rate of travel—miles per hour. a lightbulb is drawing 100 watts at 4 amps, we can Power is measured in watts. When we see a 50 watt conclude that the voltage is 25 volts (volts = watts ÷ lightbulb, we know it uses energy at a certain rate. amps). And if we have a 150 watt lightbulb running on Technically, a watt is equal to one joule per second.
