Stirling Engines
A Stirling engine is a heat engine that operates by expanding and compressing a working fluid, usually a gas-like air, in a cyclical fashion.
A Stirling engine has the following components: Heat source Hot side heat exchanger Regenerator Cold side heat exchanger Heat sink Displacer piston Power piston

Build Your Own Stirling Engine
Using the materials and instructions provided, construct Stirling engines in teams.
Record the temperature every 15 seconds for 5 minutes.
Calculate the kinetic energy of the flywheel and the heat energy added to the system. How do these compare? What is the efficiency of this engine with regards to transferring heat energy to rotational mechanical energy?
How else could you imagine heating the pressure chamber?

Pneumatics and Hydraulics
Pneumatics is a branch of engineering that harnesses the potential energy in pressurized gas to create mechanical motion.
Hydraulics is the branch of engineering that uses pressurized liquids to create mechanical motion.

Pascal’s Law
The pressure exerted anywhere in a mass of a confined liquid is transmitted equally in all directions throughout the liquid without the pressure being diminished.
This is represented by the following equation:

Hydraulic Force Multiplication
How Fluid Power Works
Copyright © Texas Education Agency 2012. All rights reserved.
18
Hydraulic Force Multiplication Example
Piston 1 = Master PistonPiston 2 = Slave Piston
If r1 = 4 cm and r2 = 8 cm, then MA = 4.
What would the MA be, if Piston 2 was the Master Piston?

Evaluate Hydraulic Force Multiplication
Using the materials and instructions provided, construct the four hydraulic systems as directed in the activity procedure.
Test each assembly by adding weights to the metal plate. When the syringe can no longer support a weight, the slave plunger will depress after the master syringe raises it. Record the weight at which this happens for each assembly.
Calculate the force multiplication factor for each assembly system. Compare the trend in force multiplication factors to the trend in the maximum weight each assembly held.
How do these trends compare? Does your data make sense?

Questions/Discussions
Assuming you applied the same force to the master 12 cc syringe in each trial, which syringe had the most force applied to it?
Which had the least? How could you use this principle to do
work in the real world?

Linear Hydraulic Motion
Linear hydraulic motion is created by attaching the end of a slave piston to an actuator that can only move in one direction.
When the master piston is depressed, the slave piston will drive the actuator linearly in one direction.
Three linear hydraulic assemblies can be combined to give motion along the x, y, and z axes.

22
Rotational Hydraulic Motion
Rotational hydraulic motion is created by attaching the end of a slave piston to one side of an actuator that is attached to a wheel.
It is important that the end of the slave piston is attached away from the center of the wheel.
When the master piston is depressed, the slave piston will drive the actuator, which translates the force to the wheel. This force causes the wheel to turn.

23
Lifting Hydraulic Motion
Lifting hydraulic motion is created by attaching the end of a slave piston to an actuator that is hinged.
It is important that the end of the slave piston is attached away from the actuator’s hinge.
The closer the piston is to the hinge, the more height the actuator arm can achieve.

24
Lifting Hydraulic Motion, cont.
If there is a weight on the end of the arm, more force will be needed to lift the weight.
The farther away the piston is from the end of the arm, the more force is needed to lift the weight.

25
Building Hydraulic Systems
Using the materials provided, construct linear, rotational, and lifting hydraulic systems.
Identify the slave and master pistons in each assembly. Test each assembly by adding water to the systems. Next add a small amount of weight to the actuators. What happens?
Try combining your rotation and linear systems. Is it possible? What sort of motion is created?

26
Questions/Discussions
How could you use the principles of force multiplication and/or a system redesign to enable the three hydraulic systems to translate more weight?
Sketch a design of a system that uses at least one of each type of hydraulic system. What does your system do?
Choose a design from the class that would be possible to build with the number of systems currently in the room, then build it.
Discuss the hardest part of the process.

Hydraulic Arm Design Challenge
In teams of 2-3 students, you will use your knowledge and experience
gained in the previous activities to build a hydraulic arm, and
prepare a 45-minute presentation of your hydraulic arm to the class.

28
Criteria for Your Hydraulic Arm
The hydraulic arm must be able to lift an object over a wall 20 cm high and place the object on the other side within the designated area 15 cm from the wall.
The arm will be secured to the testing table with a vise, so each arm must have a base that allows it to be clamped to the table.
The arm can only be constructed from the given materials and have at least hydraulically controlled joints.
