• Senior Design 1 & 2 Course - (N.U.D.I) Nautical Underwater Diving Instrument Project. Built to perform autonomous underwater exploration. Done as a group project and I was the Mechanical/Assembly lead. I performed structural tests to withstand severe pressure and making sure every component was configured properly throughout the assembly process. Project involved the use of Solidworks, Matlab, and 3d printing. Various materials such as aluminum, PLA, neoprene etc..
• ATF (Applied Thermal Fluids) Course – Analysis of an HVAC system inside the recreational center at FAU. TACO/HVAC solutions software was used for simulation and testing the system necessitates the use of two parallel pumps. Based on the system's design specifications and needs, the software calculates a flow requirement of 617.2 GPM and a head requirement of 46.6 Ft. These requirements are met by selecting a pump from TACO. The system's head requirement is heavily influenced by the chiller selection. Choosing a chiller from TRANE resulted in a reduction of more than 10ft in head requirement. The HVAC Solutions software is not an ideal choice for users, partly due to its limited documentation and the absence of 3D rendering capabilities that industry professionals have come to expect over the past decade.
• Heat Transfer Course – The use of heat pipes in laptops for cooling. The project explains heat pipes as another type of cooling mechanism very commonly utilized in various laptops. They are often used in conjunction with heat sinks Heatand fans. Currently, heat pipes are considered as the latest technology in laptops for cooling systems. The way a heat pipe work is by transferring heat by boiling and condensing the working fluid in a vacuum pipe, having an effective conductivity several times or even nearly 10 000 times better than that of good heat-conducting materials (copper, silver etc.)
