UNIT 3 INTEGRATED SYSTEMS ENGINEERING AND ENERGY

OUTCOME 1 – CONTROLLED INTEGRATED SYSTEMS ENGINEERING DESIGN (SAT)

In this unit you will use engineering principles to explain how integrated systems work (Pages 6 –

196). You will use this knowledge to plan an operational integrated mechanical,

electromechanically controlled system. You will use the Systems Engineering Process to

commence work on the design, planning, and construction of a substantial controlled integrated

system of your choosing (Pages 197 – 232).

To achieve Outcome 1 you must draw on knowledge and related skills outlined in area of study 1

(VCE Study Design – Systems Engineering, Pages 24-27). Your teacher can provide this

information.

ASSESSMENT– OUTCOME 1

Ability to investigate, analyse and use advanced integrated mechanical-electromechanical and

control system concepts, principles and components using the Systems Engineering Process to

design, plan and commence construction of an integrated controlled system.

NOTE: Your teacher will add extra where he/she considers it appropriate. The extra work

should relate to your integrated system.

Commencing your draft and your folio early, provides you with the best

opportunity to work to your full potential

ENERGY

Anything which is able to do work is said to possess energy, and therefore energy is the capacity

to perform work.

All energy originally comes from the sun.

Work and energy are, both measured in the same units, namely, joules.

The world we live in provides energy in many different forms, of which the most important has

been chemical energy. The utilization of the latent chemical energy in coal, oil and gas, released in

the form of heat to drive steam turbines and internal-combustion engines, has been a major factor in

the development of modern civilization.

Many of the material comforts which we enjoy today come from the use of electric energy.

Wind generators which convert the energy of wind

into mechanical energy then into electric energy are

used as a renewable energy source Australians are

encouraged to put solar arrays onto the roofs of their

houses to help to increase the use of green energy.

In some parts of the world where the sun shines

uninterruptedly for long periods, large concave

mirrors have been set up to collect energy directly

from the sun by focusing its rays onto special boilers

which provide power for running small generators.

Australia will be using this technology in the near

future, to build a solar power plant near Mildura.

Solar energy is converted to electrical energy

SPEED AND TORQUE

In a gear combination such as the

one shown on the right, the speed of

wheel (B) decreases while the

torque increases.

This is called gear reduction, and

the ratio between the numbers of

teeth on the gears that are used for

the reduction is called the reduction

ratio.

Output speed decreases but torque increases

PASCAL’S LAW

Pascal’s law states:

When a force is applied to a confined body of fluid, the

resultant pressure is transmitted equally and undiminished in

all directions.

In hydraulics, Pascal’s law applies to liquids that are confined and are not moving.

KINETIC ENERGY (CONFINED LIQUID)

Consider the picture on the right. When a

force is put on piston 1, the pressure is

uniformly transmitted throughout the entire

system. This pressure is applied to the walls

of the cylinders and tubes. This is true,

however, only so long as pistons 2 and 3 do

not move. If they do move, the result is a

difference in pressure. Liquid then flows

from cylinder 1 to cylinder 2, Pascal’s law

does not apply. But when pistons 2 and 3

stop moving, the liquid stops flowing, the

pressure equalizes, and Pascal’s law again

applies.

Kinetic energy (Confined liquid)

KINETIC ENERGY (UNCONFINED LIQUID)

As liquid flows through a tube, the pressure

decreases if the length of the tube is

increased. In the picture on the right,

assume that the level in the two tubes is the

same when there is no flow. As soon as the

selector valve is opened, the liquid moves.

The level of the liquid in the tube farthest

from the reservoir decreases more than the

fluid level of the tube nearest the reservoir.

Kinetic energy (Unconfined liquid)

RELATIONSHIP OF FORCE, AREA, AND PRESSURE

The terms “force”, “area”, and “pressure” have a definite mathematical relationship.

The relationship of the factors may be expressed as follows: force equals the area in mm2, cm2 or

m2 times the pressure in newtons. Stated another way.

Where:

P = pressure

F = force

A = area (m2)

MECHANICAL ADVANTAGE (MA)

One of the most important tools that you as the designer can use, is mechanical advantage.

Mechanical advantage lets you accurately determine the size of actuating cylinders and pistons and

the distance the pistons must move to operate a mechanism.

Vehicle hoist

The vehicle hoist on the right has a

mechanical advantage of both power

input and distance output.

The small input force on the small

piston A results in a greater output

force on the large piston B so there

is a mechanical advantage.

The input force is called the effort

and the output force is called the

load.

The pressure at small piston A is

equal to the pressure at large piston

B (Pascal's principle).

Mechanical advantage

INTRODUCING PNEUMATICS OPERATION

Compressed air stored in the reservoir is used to operate a basic pneumatic system such as that

shown below.

SINGLE-ACTING CYLINDER WITH THREE-PORT VALVE

The pneumatic system on the right consists of

a push button valve and a cylinder connected

by piping. When the button is pressed

compressed air is supplied to the cylinder, the

piston rod extends (called the outstroke).

When the button is released the valve closes

stopping the air flow to the cylinder. The

internal spring returns the piston rod to its

original position (the instroke).

Valves control the flow of compressed air

through the system. Valves make up the

process stage of the system. To make it easy to

draw pneumatic components there are

international symbols to represent them.

TASK 29: ‘OR’ CONTROL

The new component used is called a ‘Shuttle Valve’ A shuttle valve allows flow from either input

to the output.

Complete the pneumatic symbols and truth table for the OR Control system below in the at rest

position.

When you study the system you should find that if valve ‘A’ OR ‘B’ is on, the cylinder will then

operate.

This is known as an OR control.

DIP (Dual Inline Package). A DIP switch is a miniature

switch used mostly in digital circuit. This switch may be

either a toggle or slide type and is usually a single pole,

single throw (SPST) switch. DIP switches are either on or

off.

DIP switch

Reed switch. A reed switch consists of two or three

contacts (which look like metal reeds) encased in a sealed

glass tube or plastic case. A two reed switch type has

normally open (NO) contacts which close when operated,

and the three-reed type has a pair of normally open (NO)

and a pair of normally closed (NC) contacts. When the

switch is operated, both these pairs change to the opposite

state.

Two reed type switch

Three reed type reed switch

Two reed type reed switches

HOW DOES A REED SWITCH WORK?

Reed switches are actuated by the field

from an external permanent magnet or

electromagnet nearby. This field causes

the reeds to become magnetic, the ends

are attracted and the contacts either open

or close. Removal of the magnetic field

allows the springy reeds to restore the

contacts to their original position.

Two reed switch open

Two reed switch closed

Normally open reed switch

A normally open (NO) reed switch is switched off (the two contacts are normally apart), unless an

external magnetic field is nearby. As the permanent magnet or electromagnet is bought up to the

NO reed switch, it magnetizes the contacts in opposite ways so they attract and spring together and

a current flows through them.

Take the magnet away and the contacts—made from fairly stiff and springy metal—spring apart

again.

Reed switches like this are called normally open (NO), and they switch on when you bring a magnet

up to them.

The Bridge Rectifier ttub.com

When four diodes are connected as shown on the right, the circuit is called a Bridge Rectifier. The

input to the circuit is applied to the diagonally opposite corners of the network, and the output is

taken from the remaining two corners.

One complete cycle of operation will be explained to help you understand how this circuit works.

Let us assume the transformer is working properly and there is a positive potential at point A and a

negative potential at point B. We know that electrons flow from negative to positive, so let’s follow

the flow of electrons from point B, through the rectifier, load, rectifier, point A and back to point B.

Then one half cycle later when there is a positive potential at point B and a negative potential at

point A.

Bridge rectifier

The positive potential at point A will forward bias diode D3 and reverse bias D4. The negative

potential at point B will forward bias D1 and reverse bias D2. At this time D1 and D3 are forward

biased and will allow current flow to pass through them; D2 and D4 are reverse biased and will

block current flow. The path for current flow is from point B through D1, up through RL, through

D3, through the secondary of the transformer back to point B. This path is indicated by the solid

arrows. Waveforms (1) and (2) can be observed across D1 and D3.

One-half cycle later the polarity across the secondary of the transformer reverses, forward biasing

D4 and D2 and reverse biasing D1 and D3. Current flow will now be from point A through D4, up

through RL, through D2, through the secondary of T1, and back to point A. This path is indicated

by the broken arrows. Waveforms (3) and (4) can be observed across D2 and D4. You should have

noted that the current flow through RL is always in the same direction. In flowing through RL this

current develops a voltage corresponding to that shown in waveform (5). Since current flows

through the load (RL) during both half cycles of the applied voltage, this bridge rectifier is a full-

wave rectifier.

One advantage of a bridge rectifier over a conventional full-wave rectifier is that with a given

transformer the bridge rectifier produces a voltage output that is nearly twice that of the

conventional full-wave circuit.

THE ENGINEERING PROCESS

The Engineering Design Process (page 12 of Systems Engineering Study Design) is a Circular

Process – it encourages changes and improvements. Throughout the designing and planning stages

you should always refer back to the Systems Engineering Process. Continually referring back to the

process provides you with the best opportunity to reevaluate and modify your integrated mechanical

electromechanical controlled integrated system.

MODEL SELECTION

Now it is time for you to select appropriate components and mechanical electromechanical systems

that will form the basis of your integrated mechanical electromechanical controlled integrated

system. Your system should be of sufficient complexity for you to demonstrate your innovative and

creative skills, as well as comprehensive project management skills.

Select an integrated mechanical electromechanical controlled integrated system that you would like

to design, plan and commence to manufacture. Selecting your own mechanical, electro-mechanical

system is best because it helps you to maintain interest and enthusiasm in the outcomes. The

integrated system that you commenced in Unit 3 is completed and evaluated in Unit 4.

DESIGN BRIEF

Design, plan, record and commence production of a selected mechanical, electro-mechanical system

that will display your abilities to manage the production of an integrated system using the Systems

Engineering Process.

CONSTRAINTS:

The product or model that you make must show some innovation and creativity.

You must make a mock up model of your design.

The drawings must be computer generated.

Your considerations must be annotated in the idea sketches and refine chosen option stages.

You must produce a folio of your work.

You must not include any part of this workbook in your folio. (no cut and pasting)

CONSIDERATIONS:

Considerations are the things you need to think about before you choose them. For example, what

material will you use, acrylic, pine, plywood, aluminium, steel? What joining technique will you

use, glue, screw, nail, weld, solder? Etc.

Design constraints allow you, as the designer to reduce design and planning times. Adhering to the

design constraints ensure higher quality outcomes.

TASK 78: DECIDE ON A MECHANICAL, ELECTROMECHANICAL CONTROLLED

SYSTEM TO PLAN, DESIGN AND PRODUCE

Decide on a functional mechanical, electromechanical controlled integrated system to plan, design

and produce. Discuss your selected system with your teacher before you proceed any further.

FOLIO CHECKLIST

Use the following checklist as a guide only. Your teacher will be your best source for what is to be

included in your folio. As a guide, your folio should include:

1. A variety of presentation methods for your design ideas and options, e.g. sketches,

drawings (2D, 3D, isometric), pictures, computer generated working drawings, mockup

model.

2. Identification of the research material that you used to develop your design options that

includes, reason for the research, resource used, qualifications of the person that you

spoke to and the information that you discovered.

3. An in-depth written justification of why you chose the option you did.

4. A broad range of criteria for evaluating your model against the design plan.

5. The detailed sequence of steps that you used to plan your production

6. A full list of the materials and components that you used for your production.

7. An identification and understanding of relevant Australian Standards that you used in

the production.

8. A comprehensive list of materials and components.

9. A broad list of all tools, equipment and machines that includes; how/where it will be

used and all safety precautions related to the tool, equipment and machine.

10. Identification and a thorough explanation of the processes that you used throughout the

production.

11 A record of the proposed diagnostic tests that you planned to carry out on your

production.

12. Complete and detailed risk assessments sheets that were carried out during the

production process.

13. Detailed description of the diagnostic tests carried out during the production process that

includes identification of the test equipment, the purpose of the test, the procedural steps

used to carry out the test, reference to the technical information used for the tests and any

errors.

14. An analysis of the diagnostic tests carried out during the production sequence that

includes; accurate quantified test data, identification and use of appropriate technical

information and a thorough explanation of the actual results.

15. An evaluation of the design and production activities that includes; a detailed review of

the efficiency of the work plan that you used to make your production, the efficiency of

the log book and recorded modifications, a detailed discussion of the difficulties that you

encountered throughout the production process and how you overcome the problems,

convincing judgments about the suitability of your product and the extent to which it

matches your plan, in reference to your previously established criteria for evaluating that

your production is a success and a detailed explanation of how you could have improved

your system.

UNIT 4 SYSTEMS CONTROL AND NEW AND EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES

OUTCOME 2 – NEW AND EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES (SAC)

In this area of study you focus on new or emerging systems engineering technologies and processes

that have been developed within the past eight years or that are in the developmental stages and may

not yet be commercially available. The component/s, system or innovation must not be the same as

that studied in Unit 3, Area of Study 2.

On completion of this unit you should be able to describe and evaluate a range of new or emerging

technologies, and analyse the likely impact of a selected innovation.

To complete this outcome you should draw on knowledge and related skills outlined in Area of

Study 2. (VCE Study Design – Systems Engineering, Pages 31 – 33). Your teacher can provide this

information

The new and emerging technologies may be exhibited in, or intended for use in

Defense operations

Aerospace

Health

Sports, and enhancement of human physical capabilities

Security and intelligence gathering

Robotics and automation

Metrology

Transportation

Education

Or a combination of these.

You will find many areas for investigation on the internet. Just type in ‘new and emerging

technologies’ in the web search and go from there.
