Fluid Dynamics: Pneumatic & Hydraulic Systems

Hydraulic Systems 

Pre-Assessment

Proficiency to be studied

Abilities for a Technological World

Students will develop the ability to intentionally apply the design process,
implementation of tools and machines to model, test, troubleshoot, observe, investigate,
and analyze the relationship between solutions and assess impacts on all
technological products and systems.

Standard 12.  Students will develop the abilities to use and maintain technological products and systems.

These will be added to and updated.

Assignments ~ Please follow the links to complete each assignment below.  Please do them in order as they appear.  Please make certain you read the description of each activity and the directions in their entirety as you work through the experiments.  

#1) Pneumatic Vs. Hydraulic Activity Sheet~ This experiment helps you form a basic understanding of the difference between pneumatic  and hydraulics.  Please follow the directions of the sheet to perform both activities.  Please read the questions before you do each activity, so you have an understanding of what you should be observing during the activity.



#2 How Do Hydraulic Systems Work? 

This document gives you an overview of how how systems work together as they are integrated with either hydraulics or pneumatics' 

#3 Wisc Online Tutorials ~ Go through the tutorials below learning how Hydraulic cylinders provide forces where needed and how they act when certain forces are applied back as a load 

     A) Hydraulic System 

     B) Hydraulic Pump Example  

    C) Pneumatics Vs. Hydraulics 

#4)  States of Matter
I will present this topic to the class.  You will need the information contained with in this presentation to answer the questions for the document in #4 & #5 

#5)  Hydraulics~Energy & Power

#6)  Fluid Power Systems Questions 

Pascals Law 

Watch the video below to develop an understanding of how Pascals Law works with-in a system

#7) Assignment: Complete tutorials below submit your final score to the assignment in the classroom

Understanding Pascals Law 

Before we get the the robot design elements.  Lets research concepts behind the mechanisms that will be used to make the robot operate. More explanation in class

History of Technology

                 THE HISTORY OF TECHNOLOGY 

The History of Technology has been evolving ever since humans have walked the earth. Let's explore some of the key areas that have changed human life for the better. 

Technology of the future

In the world of AI

PRINCIPLES OF ENGINEERING II INTRODUCTION

                                   

 PRINCIPLES OF ENGINEERING 

                        DESIGN THINKING HAPPENS HERE 

     ~THINK~ DESIGN ~ CREATE ~ 

Here we will work to Design, Create, Innovate & Invent new exciting designs and products through many different mediums, including additive and subtractive manufacturing, explore careers, explore robot construction, run CNC, Use Rapid Prototyping and lasers to fabricate parts  But first lets review the class and complete the pre-assessment.


Assignment:#1
1) Log into you H drive and create an Engineering folder, this is where your CAD files will be stored. 
2) Log into your Google drive, this is where your research and online docs will be housed. 
3) Answer the following questions on a GD in your folder.  You will submit this to a google classroom assignment Engineering Design Questions

Define what Design and Technology means to you?

Discuss social & environmental implications Engineers must consider as they create new products or innovate existing ones?

What influences/drives engineering concepts and innovations of product?

What are some of the Core Elements of Engineering design?






Assignment: #2
Once you have completed the questions above, please follow the links below and complete the online assessment and the specific course pre-assessment.  Remember this is not a scored assessment.  Rather it is used as a starting place in which to determine your learning and connections you make throughout the semester.
Pre Assessment.
