ENG 1102Design Project - Energy Budgets Where is the energy going?What resources am I using?
Agenda • Review electrical, mechanical, and thermal energy calcs • Introduce Energy Budgets and Applications • Show an energy budget examples • Begin planning and documenting an energy budget for your project
Thermodynamics • Energy may be converted from one type to another - however - • Energy is conserved (i.e., it cannot be created or destroyed)
Thermodynamics energy balance Energy Sources/Resources Electrical – Power from Grid Chemical – Nat. Gas, Oil, Steam Mechanical – Human, Potential Sinks (Energy Consumers) Electrical – Pumps, Mill, Cooling, Gas Compression Thermal - Heaters Mechanical - Drag, Rolling Resistance
Flowing electrons • Metals are conductors because they contain few loosely bound electrons in their outer shells • Electrons in the outer shells are free to jump from one atom to the next • 1 Coulomb = 6.24150636 x 1018 electrons (unit for counting electrons (C)) • Reference: Eide, et.al, Engineering Fundamentals and Problem Solving, pg. 349 - 360
Electron Flow is Analogous to the Flow of Water in a pipe. Pressure (psi) Current(amp) Flow (gpm) Voltage (volt) Valve Resistor Pump Battery Reservoir Ground
Electron Flow is Analogous to the Flow of Water in a pipe. No Current Max Voltage Max Pressure Open Switch (max resistance) Battery No Flow Closed Valve (max resistance) Pump Ground Reservoir
Electron Flow is Analogous to the Flow of Water in a pipe. Current(amp) Voltage (volt) Closed Switch (min resistance, max flow, "short circuit") Pressure (psi) Battery Flow (gpm) Open Valve (full flow, min resistance) Pump Ground Reservoir
Terminology • Voltage (Volt, V) = potential difference, difference in energy per unit charge, measured with a voltmeter • Current (Amp, A) = flowrate of electrons, charge per unit time (C/s), measured with an ammeter • Resistance (Ohm, ) = opposition to flow of charge
Electrical Power …(watts) • Batteries are specified in terms of Voltage and Amp-Hours. How much Energy is in a Battery? • What are the units?
Motor Power • Examples: • 3 Amps, 12 Volts P = 36 W • 50mA, 9.4V P = 470 mW • What's the Power? What are the units? • Watt [=] J/sec
As a Team The electric motor on a table saw runs on 240V circuit and draws a current of 4.8 amps. How much power does it use? • in watts (W)? • in horsepower (hp)? • 1 hp = 746 W
As a Team The electric motor on a table saw runs on 240V circuit and draws a current of 4.8 amps. How much power does it use? • in watts (W)? 1152 W • in horsepower (hp)? • 1 hp = 746 W 1.544hp
Electrical Power …(watts) • How is it sold?
Electrical Power …(watts) • Approx $.12 per kwatt-hour
Electrical Power • What is Power (units?) • time rate of work or energy (V-amps, joules/sec or watts) • How is it calculated • P = V*I = I2*R = V2/R • How is Electrical Power (or Energy) bought and sold (units?) • kWhr
Elevation Potential Energy … • If you are peddling up a hill … • What are the units?
Thermal Power • Heat to raise temperature of water • Heat to evaporate water as it is held at high temps • Other thermal power needed???
Thermal Power • Heat capacity (Cp) of water = 1 Btu/(lbm-deg F) • Latent Heat of evap (DHv) = 1000 Btu/lbm • When shifting phase (liquid to gas) DH = DHv • Natural gas: • 1000 std ft^3 (scf) = 10^6 Btu • Typical unit of measure: therm=100,000 Btu • Approx cost = $1.05/therm Reference: Holtsapple, et.al, Foundations of Engineering, pg. 71 Felder & Rousseau, Elementary Principles in Chemical Processes pg. 365
Thermal Power Example • You wish to heat a tank containing 100 lbm of water from 25°F to 50°F. • How much energy is required (in BTU)? • How many scf of Natural Gas will you need to purchase? • - Cp-H2O = 1 Btu/(lbm-°F) • - 1000 std ft^3 (scf) = 10^6 Btu
Thermal Power Example • Mass of Water = 100 lbm of water • T = 25°F to 50°F = 25°F • How much energy is required (in BTU)? • How many scf of Natural Gas will you need to purchase? • - Cp-H2O = 1 Btu/(lbm-°F) • - 1000 std ft^3 (scf) = 10^6 Btu
Human Power • Lance Armstrong: approx 500W over 1 hr • Approx. 1kW over 1 minute • Bike Rider Guy/Gal: approx 100-200W over 1 hr • Approx. 400W over 1 minute • Power = Energy/Time • Reference: Wilson, et.al, Bicycle Science, pg. 44
Resource Budget: Accounting for Materials • Tracks all inputs and outputs to your process (energy, raw materials, byproducts, products, etc.) • Estimates energy and materials consumed in process • Used to estimate annual costs/profits of company • Used to identify opportunities for process improvement
What is an Energy Budget? • ????
What is an Energy Budget? • A means of planning the energy usage of a system • A means of cost predictions and control • An engineering tool to optimize the efficiency of any energy using system • A “balance sheet” of energy sources and sinks
Residential Homes and Commercial Buildings What are the major energy consumers? (Sinks) Where does the energy come from? (Sources)
Energy Budget - Brewing Purpose(s): • To estimate the energy cost for one batch of beer • In a spreadsheet, list unit operations and estimate power requirement for the line and annual cost to operate line. • Cite references and state your assumptions in your spreadsheet
Energy Budget – Flood Control Purpose(s): • To estimate the energy cost for pumping station at “rest,” at full operation and expected annual use • Document assumptions in a spreadsheet that clearly shows units and calculations • Cite references
Example Energy Budget – Brewery (Flood will be similar, electrical)
Energy Budget – HPV Purpose(s): • To estimate the HPV speed for a given set of conditions • Document assumptions in a spreadsheet that clearly shows units and calculations • Cite references
Material Budget • Purpose(s): • (Brew) To complete a mass balance on a typical brewing line and calculate the input/output quantities • (Flood) To determine the amount (and type) of material used in constructing flood control system • AND…To determine the amount of time necessary to construct your flood control system (will it be ready for next hurricane season?) • Can be completed in spreadsheet format. • Cite references and state your assumptions
