Development of an advanced electromechanical system requires a blend of technical expertise and knowledge, from electrical and mechanical engineering to software and system engineering. Engineers working in this field must be able to understand and analyze the interrelated electrical and mechanical components, as well as computer controlling programs, to communicate with each system part. In this paper, we aim to review the requirements and technical knowledge for development of these new technologies.

Abstract Experiences related to a new sophomore level course, “Introduction to Thermal Fluid Engineering,” are described. Several hundred students have taken the course and are currently enrolled in the follow-on courses in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer. The introductory course is structured as a two-hour per week lecture with a laboratory that meets three times during the semester. Although thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer subjects are introduced sequentially during the course, the overlap and inter-relationships between topics are emphasized. It has been beneficial both for students and the faculty teaching the course to see the bigger picture of the three courses as a whole rather than as separate topics. The open laboratories are manned by a graduate student or senior who guides the students through hands-on experiments. Each of the three simple experiments is designed to illustrate important principles and reinforce the computational skills of the students. A web site has been established to help guide the students in preparing the written portion of the laboratory report. Team teaching of some sections has been tried and compared to the standard one teacher per section approach. Feedback from the students indicated a surprising acceptance of having several teachers for a course when they were well coordinated. One advantage mentioned by the students was to introduce them to more of the mechanical engineering faculty early in their studies. Because this is the first course requiring engineering analysis taught by the mechanical engineering faculty, it provides the opportunity to direct them in their problem solving and organizational skills that will be useful throughout the rest of their courses. Student evaluations are included as part of the results presented.

Design Construction

El presente artículo está referido al diseño, construcción y puesta en funcionamiento de un Túnel de Viento de circuito abierto, instalado en el Laboratorio de Energía de la Facultad de Ingeniería Mecánica de la UNI, el mismo que sirve para investigación y pruebas experimentales de aerogeneradores modelo, realizando evaluaciones para la mejora del sistema de orientación, seguridad de turbina y optimización del generador eléctrico de imanes permanentes. Este Túnel fue instalado en Julio del 2008, por acción específica de Convenio entre la Facultad de Ingeniería Mecánica, FIM-UNI y SOLUCIONES PRACTICAS-ITDG, como parte de las investigaciones conjuntas en el desarrollo y optimización de pequeños aerogeneradores para la electrificación de poblaciones rurales aisladas del Perú. El túnel consta básicamente de tres partes: el colector, la cámara de estancamiento y el difusor; los cálculos de diseño se realizaron empleando las ecuaciones de flujo compresible. Como resultado del adecuado diseño, se obtuvo que el túnel alcanza una velocidad máxima de ensayo de 15 m/s con el modelo de prueba, velocidad más que suficiente para los ensayos requeridos. Palabras clave.-Túnel de viento, Colector, Cámara de estancamiento, Difusor, Ventilador extractor, Aerogenerador, Pruebas. ABSTRACTThis article is referred to the design, construction and functioning of a Wind Tunnel opened, installed in the Energy Laboratory of the Mechanical Engineering Faculty, Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería, FIM-UNI, it used to research and experimental tests of wind generator models, testing circuit performing evaluations to improve the system of orientation, safety of turbine and permanent magnet generator optimization. This tunnel was installed in July 2008, by specific action of agreement between the Mechanical Engineering Faculty, FIM-UNI and SOLUCIONES PRÁCTICAS-ITDG, as part of the joint research in the development and optimization of small wind turbines for the electrification of isolated Peruvian rural populations. Tunnel basically consists of three parts: collector, stagnation chamber and diffuser; calculations were made using compressible flow equations. As a result of appropriate design, obtained tunnel reaches a maximum speed of 15 m/s with the model test. Keywords.- Wind tunnel, Collector, Stagnation chamber, Diffuser, Extractor ventilator, Wind generator, Tests.
