Grid Interactive Efficient Buildings and Connected Communities From Science Fiction to Reality
No full textIn this video, provided by the Building Efficiency for a Sustainable Tomorrow (BEST) Center, Marco Pritoni from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory discusses and provides an introduction to grid interactive efficient buildings (GEBs), connected communities, and related technologies. Pritoni begins by providing an overview of how GEBs function and what makes the concept of a GEB so unfamiliar. After, Pritoni highlights key technologies that contribute to creating GEBs and connected communities, including thermal storage and advanced controls.The video runs 23:49 minutes in length
Sea Wolves: Technical Report
No full textThis 23-page report, provided by Copiah-Lincoln Community College, describes the design and construction of the underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV) created by the Sea Wolves team for the Explorer Class of the 2024 MATE ROV competition. MATE ROV is a global competition that challenges STEM students to build underwater ROVs to complete challenges. The competition is split into the following classes based on build complexity: Explorer, Ranger, Pioneer, and Navigator, and Scout.The report begins by introducing Sea Wolves and their ROV followed by an in-depth discussion of the design and construction of the ROV. Covered is the rationale behind the ROV's design, mechanical systems, electrical systems, software systems, and ROV tools. Also discussed is team safety, ROV safety features, team organization and project management, and reflections from the competition. Included are the following appendices: Software Flowchart, Operations Safety Checklist, and Electronics SID [systems integration diagram].Manuals for each competition class and technical reports from other teams are available to view separately
Hydro Sapiens: Technical Report
No full textThis 18-page report, published by the African School of Innovations Science and Technology, describes the engineering design process used to create a subsea remotely operated vehicle (ROV) for the Ranger class of the 2024 MATE ROV competition. MATE ROV is a global competition that challenges STEM students to build underwater ROVs to complete challenges. The competition is split into the following classes based on build complexity: Explorer, Ranger, Pioneer, and Navigator, and Scout.This report begins with an outline of courses and tasks completed by the ROV designed by Team Hydro Sapiens, as well as a brief technical description of the ROV and its control mechanism. Covered are the testing and building processes. The report concludes with a user manual. The report is divided into nine sections, which are not limited to but include:Work PlanDesign ApproachFramework DesignBuilding of the Barracuda Control BoxTestingROV Design CostingFinal DesignManuals for each competition class and technical reports from other teams are available to view separately
CREATE Women Technicians Leading the Charge at NextEra Energy
No full textThis video, published by the Center for Renewable Energy Advanced Technological Education Resource Center (CREATE), is part of CREATE's initiative to increase the involvement of women in the energy sector and highlights the experiences Lindsey Romano and Sydney Eisinger, two graduates from Indian State River College employed at NextEra Energy. Throughout the video, Romano and Eisinger discuss their career paths, experiences working as women in the energy industry, and their accomplishments at NextEra energy.The video runs 3:57 minutes in length
Lecture 15: Printed Circuit Board Design (Ki-CAD)
No full textThis video was created by Neha Kardam and is part of a series of lectures on printed circuit board (PCB) design using Ki-CAD software. This video demonstrates the process of adding text labels and a version number to a PCB design. Kardam first runs a design rule check (DRC) to ensure there are no errors before proceeding. Text labels are added to the silkscreen layer to mark pin functions, component names, and board identification. Kardam duplicates and edits labels, then opens a 3D view to inspect the design.This video runs 5:28 minutes in length. Additional videos from the series are available to view separately
Lecture 16: Printed Circuit Board Design (Ki-CAD)
No full textThis video was created by Neha Kardam and is part of a series of lectures on printed circuit board (PCB) design using Ki-CAD software. The video shows steps for adding a 10-microfarad polarized capacitor to a PCB schematic and layout. Kardam places the capacitor in the schematic editor, selects a footprint, connects it using wiring tools, and runs an electrical rules check. The demonstration includes generating a netlist, updating the PCB layout, and opening the 3D viewer. This video runs 6:23 minutes in length. Additional videos from this series are available to view separately
3 Phase Transformers (Part 1 of 3)
No full textThis video, published by Columbia Gorge Community College, is the first part of a three part lecture on 3 phase transformers. In the lecture, presenter Jim Pytel covers the design, configuration, operation, and uses of 3 phase transformers. Also covered are standard 3 phase AC transformer naming conventions, simplified connection diagrams, displacement diagrams, and examine common Y, delta, and Z configurations. In this video, Pytel introduces 3 phase transformers and discusses clock orientation, naming conventions, simplified connection diagrams, and more.This video runs 19:53 minutes in length. The other parts of the lecture are available to view separatel
