Week 7 CADD

 This week, we were taught how to perform computer aided design and drafting using Fusion 360. The layout of Fusion 360 is confusing at first, but eventually, we managed to get used of it. This week, we were tasked to create a sketch of a key ring, a sketch using contrains and a sketch for a photo frame.

Key Ring Activity:

For the keyring activity we were taught how to use tools of Fusion 360 such as fillet, extrude, offset and text.

Use of Constraints Activity:

For this activity, we were taught how to use constraint tools such as horizontal/vertical, coincident, tangent, concentric and symmetry.

Photoframe Activity:

For this activity, we had to sketch 4 objects for the photo frame. Roy did the transparent piece Bjorn did the holder piece, Nigel did the back piece and Vernon did the front piece. We had to discuss the dimensions of each part so that it is able to hold the photo with the dimensions of 102mm by 152mm.
We decided that the frame would be of a dimension of 212mm by 162mm with the thickness of each piece being 3mm other than the transparent piece with a thickness of only 2mm.

Sketch of Assembled Product


Overall, we leaned many useful tips on sketching using Fusion 360 which will benefit us in future lessons where we perform 3D printing.

    Well done, team! You have learnt how to use Fusion 360 to model 3D objects.

 Hello peeps. This week we carried out an experiment we were assigned called the air-lift pump challenge. we were required to contract the set up with provided equipment.  Here is our equipment and experimental setup  Here are the results we obtained from the experiment Experiment 1 b = 10cm, Y=16.5cm a (cm) X (cm) Flowrate (ml/s) Average Flowrate (ml/s) Run 1 Run 2 Run 3 2 14.5 5.93 5.80 5.71 5.81 4 12.5 4.20 4.13 4.23 4.19 6 10.5 2.82 2.63 2.60 2.68 8 8.5 1.39 1.11 1.93 1.47 10 6.5 0.39 0.37 0.39 0.49 Experiment 2 a = 2cm, X=14.5 b (cm) Y (cm) Flowrate (ml/s) Average Flowrate (ml/s) Run 1 Run 2 Run 3 10* 16.5 5.93 5.80 5.71 5.81 12 14.5 2.89 3.78 3.20 3.29 14 12.5 1.35 1.35 1.20 1.3 16 10.5 0.19 0.19 0.18 0.19 18 8.5 0 0 0 0 20 6.5 0 0 0 0 we used an estimated flowrate of 0 as t water was barely being pumped out. it took too long to collect 100ml of water and it was not feasible for the experimenter to hold the tube for so long. 1.       ...

Week 4 Activity

  Roy, Nigel ,Bjorn, Vernon Group 3 DCHE2A02 Topic: Material Selection for Inner Layer of Thermoflask For week 4, we went to revisit our last year module which was the materials for design and we were tasked to find the right material for the inner layer of a thermoflask. In materials for design, we needed to find the right requirements for the material and from there find different suitable materials. We then use the COWS matrix (Criteria, Options, Weightage and Score) to determine the best material. Here is our findings. Material Requirements In order for the liquid inside the thermoflask to remain hot/cold, the inner layer of the thermoflask must reduce the amount of heat transfer from the liquid to the surrounding. The inner layer thus should have a low thermal conductivity and a high melting point.   Since the inner layer will be in contact with water, it must resist corrosion by any liquid put into it, water and acids from soda drinks. It will be used for drinking, so i...

Week 1 Group Retreat Activity

 Firstly, we went to buy drinks as we were feeling very thirsty and while drinking we were chatting about the stuff we did during the holidays.  After finishing our drinks, we had to use the toilet. We also decided to prank Vernon by taking a wefie with him using the toilet. We were feeling stressed due to the long and hectic day and decided that we needed to distress by playing some mobile games together. We were feeling restless, so we decided to do some pushups together. Despite it being tiring, all of us had plenty of fun together. All in all, this was a fun bonding experience for our group and we felt that this opportunity allowed us to get to know one another better.
