Nondisclosure Agreement
Some vital materials used are subject to a signed non-disclosure agreement. Please respect that some questions may not be fully explained due to the NDA.
Combustion Since the midterm:
The programs and analysis have been completed.
We completed analysis on each fuel (6).
We ranked the fuels based off of cost per gallon and efficiency
Combustion: Raw Data
Combustion: Initial Stoichiometric Testing
Combustion
Engine The engine calculations have been
completed since before the midterm. No new information to report.
Meeting with Dr. Taylor has been scheduled to check validity of our program.
We are working on illustrating the process so it is easier to understand for the audience.
Boiler
Currently: The boiler’s heat transfer calculation
is still in progress. Estimated to be completed next week.
Condenser and Pump
Condenser – Analysis Models Internal Forced Convection - Complete
Conduction – On Going
External Forced Convection – Complete
Radiation – Complete (negligible)
Feed Water Pump – Analysis Model Temperature Difference Across the Pump - Complete
Power Required to Run Pump – Complete
Cavitation – On Going (Cond. Pressure Drop/Buffer Tank)
Currently researching commercial water pump to handle required conditions.
Heat loss due to convection
Finite Element Analysis Currently we are trying to analysis the 3D model
provided from Spindyne.
We could possibly change that to a 2D analysis due to time constraints.
