Design and Development of Automated circle drawer

Aim of this mechanical engineering project is to design and develop an automatic circle drawer which can be used to draw circles of different diameter. This task is a perfect mechanical engineering semester project which can enables students to learn about design an development of product. 

Main topics which will be covered int this mechanical project are as follow

• Concept Designing
• Concept Design Selection
• CAD modeling
• Design detail description
• Manufacturing considerations 

Analysis of three different material for flywheel

Current selection of material and manufacturing process for the flywheel has been clearly described and critically evaluated in Project 2 - Analysis of current material and manufacturing process of flywheel but there are other materials and manufacturing process that can be used instead of current material and manufacturing process to increase the performance, reliability and cost effectiveness of flywheel. Three of these materials and their manufacturing process are discussed below.

Analysis of current material and manufacturing process of flywheel

Flywheel is a mechanical device used to store the rotational kinetic energy. The main application of the flywheel is to provide the kinetic energy whenever the load torque is greater the drive torque. Amount of energy store in a flywheel depends on three things geometry of flywheel, angular velocity of flywheel and density of material used. Whereas the flywheel ability to handle the stresses and range of angular velocity at which it can rotate safely, depends on the material of the flywheel. Therefore the material selection is one of most important aspect of flywheel manufacturing.
