Hah, that is a great engine. I use it to demonstrate thermodynamics topics in my classes.

Thanks for the feedback. Make sure to subscribe and turn on all notifications so you will know as I post additional videos later this semester.

Good to hear from you. You should check out MCHN 1426 Introduction to CAM. Clint LaFont is a great instructor.

Hah, yes, but it recovered nicely!

Check the McMaster-Carr data sheet and use the closest you can find in the Solidworks material library.

They are Vernier surface temperature probes. They connect via bluetooth or USB. www.vernier.com/product/go-direct-surface-temperature-sensor/

@@MarkSummersCAD one more question sir, is it possible to simulate a PCB in enclosure with a fan in solidworks to make a thermal analysis for my project?

Absolutely@@kamelk8027. You can use Solidworks PCB to design the PCB and use it in in Solidworks Flow with the Electronics Cooling Module Add-in.

Thank you Sir for sharing your knowledge with us@@MarkSummersCAD

I suspect you need to go back to the part model and adjust the options of how the tapped hole is displayed. Edit the hole wizard feature and look at the options near the bottom of the list and make sure to turn on the option to show both the hole tap depth and hole tao drill droth.

Not sure what you are referring to when you say "voltage transformer monitor". Please pass along additional details...

Sorry, but the design project is part of an ongoing project that I eventually plan to monatize, so I can't share the actual design files due to the nature of the IP. If you are interested in the Ada Fruit assembly (check the 30:00 point in the video), send me an e-mail request.

Vivek, thanks for the kind words. Your question is a good one, and my short answer is "no". Like you, I have not seen performance data from manufacturer's Laird in particular) regarding time varying supplied current to TECs. I did try some testing during my thesis work where I would turn off half of the TECs mounted to my condensation plate for a couple minutes to save electrical power, but the results were not good for generating AWG since the condensation plates quickly warmed up and prevented water generation. Although Solidworks Flow Simulation provided transient (time-dependent) analysis options, I don't know of any way to simulate a time varying PWM power input to the TEC elements.

@@MarkSummersCAD Thanks Mark for info

Agreed. I also like to use the "clone study' option to prevent re-entering all the parameters.

@@MarkSummersCAD i would like to know how i can make a study inside another study for example an internal study like in an engine that operates inside a bigger system while that system operates for example under external conditions 😇

@@user-cb4xg8pc7j You can do the first study (inner portion) and get the results, then import those results (flow rates, etc.) into the second (outer portion) study. I do that for my study where I compute flow rates through the duct system, then apply the flow rates to the larger (outer) study.

You are welcome, glad you find them useful!

Thanks for the feedback. I find that when students struggle with GD&T concepts, the best way to address learning about GD&T is with hands-on demonstrations.

Thanks for the question. The idea is that I only allow the DIN rail to be cut in even increments of 50 mm (slot pitch) and only in a location evenly located between two adjacent slots. If you wanted to locate the first cut 45mm from one end, you could edit the slot extrude cut sketch to change the 50mm dimension to 45mm. However, this would break the symmetry and the slot at the other end would be 55mm from the far end.

Glad you enjoy them. Make sure to subscribe to the channel and spread the word!

Nevermind that! I see the location of the templates

Thanks for the kind words. Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for the kind words. I hope to add more videos in the future.

@@MarkSummersCAD More videos. Love the content.

Hah, not quite... That guy is Marc with a "c" :)

Thanks for the feedback, I am on it.

Sorry for the delay. Send me an e-mail request (mark@marksummers.net) and i will forward you a copy.
