  1. 1. Dynamics and electronics of a manually chargeable quadcopter for steady-state flight

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Ioannis Kantsaporidis; Sadeq Al-Attar; [2017]
    Keywords : Rechargeable quadcopter; back emf; momentum theory; sustainability; battery performance; thrust; power;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to investigate how the onboard battery of a quadcopter can be charged through manual rotation of its motors, while understanding the resulting aerodynamical forces acting on the rotors during hover, as well as considering the changes in thrust capabilities when the electronic and structural design are altered. A theoretical approach using the momentum theory will present a general understanding of rotor performance whilst describing the correlation between rotor parameters, thrust and mechanical power.

  2. 2. An Alternative Variable Valve Timing System for Heavy Duty Vehicles

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Mikael Eriksson; Daniel Olovsson; [2016]
    Keywords : Variable; Valve Timing; VVT; Cam phaser; Heavy Duty; Scania; Commercial Vehicles; GT-SUITE; Dynamic; On off valve; Product Development; Machine Element;

    Abstract : The ability to control engine valve timing has the potential to alter the engine performance over the entire operating range. The outcome of valve timing technology enables the possibility to increase efficiency, lowering emissions, increase engine torque, etc. One of the simplest ways to obtain a variable valve timing is to use cam phasers.

  3. 3. Simulation of a Self-bearing Cone-shaped Lorentz-type Electrical Machine

    University essay from Elektricitetslära

    Author : Jim Ögren; [2013]
    Keywords : Self-bearing machine; bearingless machine; cone-shaped flywheel; 6 degrees of freedom control;

    Abstract : Self-bearing machines for kinetic energy storage have the advantage of integrating the magnetic bearing in the stator/rotor configuration, which reduces the number of mechanical components needed compared with using separated active magnetic bearings. This master's thesis focus on building a MATLAB/Simulink simulation model for a self-bearing cone-shaped Lorenz-type electrical machine. READ MORE
