28Agenda29Our Current Design Progress30First Order Design Method Total Net Work(Joules) Power Output(Watts)Total Volume=MAX(Vexp+Vcomp+Vdead)Total Volume= (7065.3 cm^3)
It was not possible to run a second order analysis by simple calculations & equations because of the enormous amount of unknown variables so we built a program in MATLAB capable of running arrays & guess values to arrive at possible values
Our process for the Second Order Design Method. Build Calculation Sheet On Excel capable of giving us accurate basic parametersDesigned MATLAB program capable of calculating numerous amount of engine variables at different speeds & pressures Re-Designed Excel sheet to incorporate data from MATLAB program31Second Order Design MethodSecond Order Results 32We have picked 15 Hz (900RPM) because we can achieve a high enough torque to up-gear our engine ratio 3:1 giving us 2700(RPM) at a high output power of 3010 (watts)

Wout= net work done by entire engine
Pe*dVe= The change in expansion volume as a function of expansion space pressure
Pc*dVc=The change in compression volume as a function of compression space pressure
Work in expansion space= 7162.2(Joules)Work in compression space= -6961.4(Joules)
Pout= (7162.2)(J)+(-6961.4)(J) *(15Hz)=3010 Watts34Second Order Results35FEA ANALYSIS
Max Hoop Stress Equals= 14,368 psiAllowable Yield Stress for ChromMolly AISI 4140 at 600C is 60,40psi or (417MPa)Max Operating pressure is 376 psiRegenerator Design- The regenerator reduces the heat transferred from expansion cylinder to compression cylinder by incorporating several small tubes & cylinder housing containing a porous mesh material which catches heat
The tubes help dissipate heat by maximizing surface area to help enable the convection of heat.
The tubes also help control the pressure & gas flow by causing a pressure drop which increases the gas velocity
36Second Order Design
As the swept Volume increases by a factor of x the # of tubes must also increase by that factor(if you double the volume you double the tubes)
