Typical Design Cycle: Biomedical Orbital Mixer

Simplified Energy Model: Energy Entering System

Energy Into the System:

Energy Into System = Human Power

Work = Τ∆Θ example: T = 2.25Nm L = 75mm

∆Θ = 30 Turns X 2Π = 188.4 rad W = 423.9 J

Independent of Crank Time or Speed (30 sec)

CONSERVATION OF ENERGY:

Internal energy (stored)

Work Done By System

Energy Into System

Two Modes of Operation:1. Cranking Cycle: Energy In = Energy Stored into System2. Operating Cycle: Energy Stored = Work Done By System

T

L


Simplified Energy Model: Energy Stored

Energy Stored in the System:

Total Energy = Potential + Kinetic Energy

Kinetic Energy = ½ Iw^2 Potential = m.g.∆h Spring = ½ K ∆Θ^2

m = 5 grams (x4) m = 5 grams (x4) k ~ 23 N-mm / rad d = 50mm g= 9.8 m/sec^2 ∆Θ = turns x 2Π I = 50e-6 Kg/m^2 ∆h = 30mm Spring E = varies with time Kinetic E = 0.88 J Potential E = 0.005 J

Simplified Energy Model: Energy Leaving System

Energy Out of the System:

Total Work = Frictional Losses + Drag

Frictional Losses = Σ (ζ.E + μ.N.d.∆Θ) ζ = 3-5 % (gear efficiency)

μ = 0.2 (sliding bearing friction)Total Energy Loss ~ 80 Joules

ID (drag)

F (friction)

Drag Force =

C ~ 0.8 A = .0012 m^2 V = 9.4 m/sec F = .05 N (drag force) Drag Energy = 363 Joules


Power In = Work / Time = 1.90 Watts (after frictional losses)

Drag Power = = 2.02 Watts

Centripetal Acceleration = r.W^2 (120g’s)

Critical Design ParametersV = r.W

r

EXPERIMENTS

Increase Air Resistance(Thru addition of a thin sheet metal foil)Significant reduction in final velocity

Increase Mass 5g 10g(Same max speed / took longer to get to speed

Increase Mass 5g –> 15g(no change in Steady-State conditions) vibration and rattling, more force on bearings

Reduce # of Cartridges Increase of Cartridge Length

m

Critical Design Parameters

g1

Minimize Distance To Center of Mass (r)

Air Drag Coefficient < 0.4

Use Rolling Bearing μ < 0.01

Reduce # of Gears / Belts / & provide Good Alignment

Reduce Moving Mass / Inertia

Improve Gear Efficiency Thru Lubrication ζ < 3%

Drag Power ~ r^3Acceleration ~ r


Mixer Design

Design Goals Top loading Cartridge top twist in holder Low power loss

Ball bearings Minimize CG dia.

Mixer: 2mm orbital diameter Centrifuge: 1800 RPM


COMPARISON CONCEPT 1 - CONCEPT 2

CONCEPT 2: Combined Mixer / Centrifuge

1. + REDUCES OVERALL BOX LENGTH FROM 15.75 TO 14.5

2. - REQUIRES CLUTCH AND BRAKE TO STOP MOTION OF SPINNER WHILE MIXING

3. - INTERFERENCE IF CARTRIDGES ARE NOT REMOVED FROM NON-USED MECANISM

CONCEPT 1: Separate Mechanisms

1. + SEPARATE MECHANISMS SIMPLIFY DRIVE 2. + EASY ACCESS TO CARTRIDGES3. - SEPARATE SHAFT AND SUPPORT4. - TWO ENCLOSURES REQUIRED
