A method of switch selection for an electric vehicle drive
No full textThe key to reducing cost of electric vehicles is integration. All too often systems such as the motor, motor controller, batteries and vehicle chassis/body are considered as separate problems. The truth is that a lot of trade-offs can be made between these systems, causing an overall improvement in many areas including total cost.\ud

Motor controller and battery cost have a relatively simple relationship; the less energy lost in the motor controller the less energy that has to be carried in the batteries, hence the lower the battery cost. A motor controller’s cost is primarily influenced by the cost of the switches. This paper will therefore present a method of assessing the optimal switch selection on the premise that the optimal switch is the one that produces the lowest system cost, where system cost is the cost of batteries + switches
From circuit design to service delivery - establishing a clinical FES service
No full textThere are a number of components that are essential to the operation of a clinical FES service. Firstly we believe that FES is part of a treatment package and cannot be delivered by the simple provision of a stand alone device enabling the patient to treat their own stroke, MS etc. Therefore trained staff are required to deliver that service and in our experience this works best if this is a team of therapists and clinical engineers working closely together. Secondly the equipment has to be designed and manufactured to withstand the rigours of everyday life and reliability is essential. Constant patient support and education are also required and the problems that inevitably arise must be solved promptly. Patient selection is crucial. Finally data must be recorded and stored in a structured way (in Salisbury we have 1104 patients on the database and see 30 patients per week) to quantify the efficacy of treatment and to determine the design criteria for the next generation of devices.<br/

Direct numerical simulation of the flow around a wing section at moderate Reynolds numbers
No full textA three dimensional direct numerical simulation has been performed to study the flow around the asymmetric NACA-4412 wing at a moderate chord Reynolds number (Rec = 400, 000) with an angle of attack of 5◦ . The flow case under investigation poses numerous challenges for a numerical method due to the wide range of scales and complicated flow physics induced by the geometry. The mesh is optimized and well resolved to account for such varying scales in the flow. An unsteady volume force is used to trip the flow to turbulence on both sides of the wing at 10% chord. Full turbulent statistics are computed on the fly to further investigate the complicated flow features around the wing. The present simulation shows the potential of high-order methods in simulating complex external flows at moderately high Reynolds numbers
