A pendulum that is powered via a series elastic
actuator can be modelled as follows (simplified):
Jy (double dot) + By (dot) + K(y-u) + mglsin (y)
where y is output and u is input
= = 0
j = 0.2 [kgm^2] (Inertia)
to XL.
K = 60 [N.m/rad] (Spring stiffness)
B 0.05 [N.m.s/rad] (damping coefficient)
g 9.81 [m/s^2] (gravitational acceleration)

You must select a submerged centrifuge multicellular pump for a borehole on a worksite that requires a flow of
1.500l/s. The borehole itself is 150m deep (see figure 5). If the outlet pipe has the following properties, then:

A) Choose a pump from those presented in figure 6 (you must select the most adequate model) if there is no local
head-loss, only friction related head-loss. You must draw the complete characteristic curve for the pipe directly on
figure 6.;
B) Is cavitation an issue if NPSHrequired is 5m briefly discuss the results.
C) Determine the supplied power output by the pump (in kW) as well as the absorbed power output when the
pump reaches it's operational flow for the pump you have selected. |
