How do you build a centrifuge?
To build a centrifuge you first need to decide what G force you need to generate. This is a function of the distance that the unit to be centrifuged is from the center axis and the rotational frequency (RPM). A major difficult you might run into is balancing the unit you make. The basic components of a centrifuge are the motor, case, rotor, and shield. The rotor holds the tubes, the case holds the motor in place and is a sturdy base, the shield protects you from any debri that could be thrown from an unbalanced rotor. If you MUST build a centrifuge you will need to learn to machine an accurate and balanced rotor. You are really just better off buying one. If you are in search of a cheap and simple centrifuge for playing with, use some tubing and an egg beater like these students did: http://www.rsc.org/delivery/_ArticleLinking/DisplayHTMLArticleforfree.cfm?JournalCode=LC&Year=2008&ManuscriptID=b809830c&Iss=Advance_Article
What is needed to generate AC electricity?
An AC generator (Alternator). A rotor is turned into a magnet by what is known as 'excitation' current. The rotor then induces AC current in the stator windings as it is rotated within it. This is AC, due to the fact that the rotor has a north and south pole, which alternately induces current in the stator windings. The exitation current is provided to the rotor via slip rings. Controlling this excitation current will also control the output power by suitable control circuitry. This is the same principle, whether it is a small domestic generator, a power station, a wind turbine, or a car alternator.
Function and operation of rotor brake system?
With a rotor braking system there is a curved brace with lining that fits inside the wall of a round drum. When the brake pedal is pressed, hydraulic fluid goes through the line and makes the brace with the lining press against the side of the drum until the drum stops turning.
What are the proper placements of samples in a centrifuge?
In a centrifuge, samples should be placed in a balanced manner to ensure even distribution of weight. Typically, tubes should be arranged opposite each other in the rotor to maintain balance. If using a swing-out rotor, ensure that the samples are positioned in pairs across from each other. Additionally, avoid placing samples of significantly different weights next to each other to prevent imbalance during centrifugation.
How do you convert LRA to Horsepower?
LRA is not any known unit of measure. You can convert horsepower to BTU per hour, calories per second, ergs per second, watts, Kilowatts, MW, GW, etc.
What is a helicopter blade called?
the blade is called rotor bladesThe rotor blades on top are called Main Rotor Blades, because they are the main source of lift for the helicopter. The smaller rotor blades on the tail are called Tail Rotor Blades.
How do rotor helicopters work?
Rotor helicopters work by generating lift through the rotation of large horizontal blades called rotor blades. As the rotor blades rotate, they create a pressure difference between the top and bottom surfaces of the blades, producing lift. By altering the pitch of the rotor blades and controlling the speed of rotation, pilots can steer the helicopter in different directions.
What is the blades on a helicoptor called?
The blades on a helicopter are called rotor blades. They are attached to the rotor mast and rotate to provide lift and control for the helicopter.
What holds a helicopters blades on?
The rotor hub holds blades on
What does rotor blades overcome mounted to flapping hinges?
The flapping of the blades compensates the dissymmetry of the lift created by the blades. The blade going in the same direction as the relative wind has more speed , therefore more lift than the one going against the wind. As the blades are on hinges the blade which has more lift can "flapp" upwards resulting in loss of surface ( as lift is also dependent of the surface) and thus balancing the lift on the rotor disk.
What is the rotor head for?
The rotor head changes the angle of incidence of the rotor blades as they rotate.
Can helicopter blades be called wings?
No, they are correctly called 'rotor blades'
What is the record for the maximum number of main rotor blades in a helicopter?
I can't answer what the record number of main rotor blades is but these three helicopters are the some of the largest helo's in the world and the last has 10 main rotor blades although it has no tail rotor so it depends on your definition of main rotor I guess.Sikorsky S-64 Sky crane - Has 7 main rotor bladesMil Mi-26 - Has 8 main rotor bladesMil Mi-12 - Has 10 main rotor blades - was only really a prototype.
What does rotor blades mean?
Rotor blades are on helicopters. They are the long narrow parts above the fuselage (cabin) .When these rotate they impart 'lift' to the helicopter.
What is a rotor hub?
Rotor hub links the blades to the low-speed shaft
What is the rotor head?
it is the mechanism above the transmission that is hooked up to the rotor blades
What is the palindrome for system of horizontal blades that allow helicopters to fly?
Rotor blades
