Question 3: a) What is the main use of stepper motors? In essence, stepper motors are applied in motion-control positioning system. For instance in 3D printers, disk drives, intelligent lighting, scanners, CNC machines, printers, camera lenses, plotters and slot machines. b) What are the similarities and differences between a reluctance, a permanent magnet and hybrid stepper motors? The three motors are similar in that, they all have power electronic control that comes with electronic…

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION A butterfly valve is a valve which can be used for regulating flow. A butterfly valve is a flow control device that has a varied applications in the field of piping industries and firefighting applications. Not only it is simple in design but also has low cost, fast closing and opening times, and it is generally favored as they give low head loss in the fully opened position. Butterfly valves are as shown in Fig. 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3. The butterfly valve consists of a disc…

Power wheelchairs have two main modules: the base (formed by the batteries, the controller, the wheels and the motors) and the seating system. The wheels configuration will have a direct effect on the wheelchair’s performance in different situations. As we have two types of wheels (drive wheels and castors), depending on how they are positioned and how the weight is distributed, they will be more or less efficient in different situations, environments, terrains, etc. The first critical…

Brushless DC Motor Physics Report. Isaac Mills. Motor: A machine powered by electrical current or the explosion of gases inside chambers that will provide movement for a vehicle. When an electric current, magnetic field or external force acts on a coil found inside of the motor, it will provide force to it, thus causing the coil to move, the coil rotates on a half turn basis otherwise the motor is forced to stop and will not move. The Motor Effect Motor effect refers to a current carrying…

The capabilities of a hysteresis motor can be judged based upon an evaluation of its behavior under two specific operating conditions: 1) starting conditions, and 2) steady state synchronous operating conditions at maximum torque. It is easier to conduct an experimental study on the behavior of a hysteresis motor under starting conditions than the second operating conditions. Furthermore, the starting behavior of hysteresis motors is of great importance from two perspectives: 1) usually the…

Chapter-4 (Introduction to FEM Analysis using COMSOL MULTIPHYSICS) 4.1 Introduction: In simplest form we can define Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) as miniaturized electro-mechanical devices made by using various techniques of micro-fabrication, where the dimensions can be in the range from less than one micron to several millimeters. Many MEMS devices are of the size of a grain or the eye of a needle. MEMS is indeed one of the most promising and emerging areas of engineering. This…

Users love sturdy construction, but some do note the assembly instructions need to be clearer. This threshold ramp for doorways has a size of 16.6 x 34 x 3 inches, a weight of 11 pounds, a…

The two main hardware of Galooli is the Triton K2 and the Corona TR7Z, both function similarly as tracking units, with the former designed for vehicles and the latter designed for generators and telecom sites. With the hardware installed, information of the asset (e.g. engine diagnostics) is transmitted over to Galooli’s patented software – the ZON™ Control. An example of the solution structure can be seen in Fig D. Through a unique algorithm, the data is processed and presented in real-time…

GOOD ADVICE FOR MATTRESSES Mattresses do not need much maintenance, regardless of the mattress. But just as for upholstered furniture "settle" the material in mattresses - it affects neither support abilities or buoyancy. You can counteract the material put out by turning the mattress frequently. Switching between both head and foot and front and back if possible. Box Springs has a loose mattress and it should also be reversed. Many mattress can not withstand washing. Check for washing…

Chapter 4 Modelling of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator 4.1 Overview The permanent magnet synchronous generator is used in this thesis as wind turbine generator because of their high efficiency, low losses, smaller size, less maintenance, high reliability and the ability to operate without gearbox [33], [34]. The main aspect which distinguishes the Permanent Magnet Synchronous machine from other types of electrical machines is that the rotor magnetic flux is generated by permanent magnets…
