Detailed Design ReviewProject Team 13453 Brandon Niescier Erin Sullivan Mike Gorevski Sean Deshaies
Agenda • Team and Project Overview (2 min) • Customer Needs and Specifications Review (3 min) • Hardware Design (40 min) • Test Fixture Design (40 min) • Test Plans (5 min) • Q&A
Team and Project Members TEAM: Project Manager: Sean Deshaies (ME) Project Engineers: Brandon Niescier (ME) Erin Sullivan (EE) Mike Gorevski (EE) CUSTOMER: Dr. Jason Kolodziej, ME Department, RIT SUPPORT: Project Guide: Bill Nowak (Xerox) Faculty Champion: Dr. Jason Kolodziej(RIT) Sponsors: Scott Delmotte (D-R)
Project Description and Objective The purpose of this project is to monitor the health of the main crank bearing on RIT’s Dresser-Rand ESH-1 compressor. This will be done through recording vibration measurements via wireless sensor technology.
System Block Diagram Rotational System
Accelerometer PCB Series 660 Low voltage was critical Met customer spec for measurement range Verified by meeting with PCB
Epoxy • Tra-Con Tra-Cast 3103 • Consulted with PCB • Is what their customers use
Accelerometer Mounting Accelerometer will be potted to the shaft using epoxy Keyway chosen as mounting location
TelosB Wireless Module • Low power research development • Wireless sensor networks • Data collection and programming via USB • Integrated on board antenna • Compact
Enclosure Options • Option 1: Commercial Off-The Shelf • Cheap and readily available • Close fit difficult to attain • Option 2: Custom Design • Can produce an enclosure to the exact dimensions needed for a close fit • Difficulty in obtaining desired construction for a reasonable cost • Requires large minimum orders
Enclosure Bud Industries CU-1931-MB ABS plastic construction Inside Dimensions: 2.9”x1.9”x0.93” Wireless Module Dimensions: 2.55”x1.24”x0.75”
Enclosure Mounting • The enclosure will be mounted to the flywheel • Limited space on shaft • Shaft mount would require milling a flat • Large, flat space on flywheel spokes
Battery Life Formula Used: • These calculations were made using the specs of an Energizer Ultimate Lithium Ion AA Battery which has a capacity rating of 3,100 mAh.

Stationary Accelerometer PCB 607A11 “Swiveler” Needed to withstand harsh conditions Voltage use not a concern Stud mounted Exceeded customer spec for measurement range Recommended by PCB
Mounting Drill 0.21” Dia. 0.31” deep Tap ¼’-28 UNF-2A 0.25” deep

Faraday Cage • A Faraday cageis an enclosure formed by conducting material. Such an enclosure blocks external static and non-static electric fields.
Research Done • Faraday cage prevents transmission from inside cast • External antenna required for transmission (defeats purpose of wireless transmission) • Other methods out there, but still in development stages (not feasible)
Test Rig • In order to analyze our solutions for monitoring bearing health, a model test facility will be constructed • 1:1 scale for shaft diameter and rotational speed • Bearing configuration will not be identical to actual compressor for the sake of simplicity
Assembly Drawing 6 5 3 4 2 1 7
Motor Brushless 24VDC Motor with planetary gearbox NEMA Size 11 14: 1 gear reduction 55 oz-in rated torque 714 rpm max speed
Encoder Photocraft HS20BQZ-720/8-30 FB2 Use requested by customer Industrial grade Optical, hollow shaft encoder Flexible tether used to assist in alignment
Motor Controller Anaheim Automation MDC100 050101 Adjusts the rotational speed internally or externally Readily available from and recommended by customer
Power Supply Motor maximum power consumption: 212W Encoder power consumption: 1.2W 24VDC 350W power supply
Bearings • 2” ID Ball Bearings from Xerox Fuser • Readily available from guide • Housings will need to be made • Original plan was mounted ball bearings • Rolling resistance was too high
Bearing Fits • Timken Engineering Manual • Light Loading • Rotating shaft, Stationary housing • Bearing-Shaft Interface • Interference fit (0.0004in to 0.0008in) • Bearing-Housing Interface • Loose fit (0.0005in clearance)
Accelerometer Test Plan • Accelerometer mounting • Verifying mounting with epoxy (Tra-Con Tra-Cast 3103) does not alter readings
