  8. Temperature Insert mounted Probe • Price: • Vin: • Vout: Flange Probe • Price: • Vin: • Vout:

  9. Pressure Regular sensor with heat dissipation stem • Price: • Vin: • Vout:

  10. Microprocessor • Arduino Due • Arm Processor • 3.3V Logic • 3.3V and 5V Regulator on Board • 54 Digital I/O’s • 12 Analog Inputs (Can have up to 12 sensor inputs) • 4 UARTS • 84MHz Clock Speed • $50 • Goals: • Input Sensor Data • Store sensor Data on SD Card • Control a LCD Display • Control LED ‘Out of Range’ Lights

  11. Adafruit Micro-SD Card Reader • Uses 1 UART Port and 2 Extra I/O Ports • Made to Work with Arduino Board • $15

  12. LCD Display • 4 Lines of 20 Characters Each • +5 V input from Arduino Due • Uses 11 Digital I/O Pins • Will display the max temperature, max displacement and max pressure • $25

  13. LED Output • Pass fail system: • If the EJ has experienced out of range data, LED’s turn on and stay on until uCis reset • One for each sensor • Uses One I/O port per LED

  15. Bill of Materials

  16. Schedule

  17. Questions?

  18. Schedule

  19. Back Up Slide

  20. Engineering Analysis • Simulated an EJ under compression and tension in ANSYS Workbench • Displacement of ±1 inch • Used to determine where stress concentrations will be • Helps to determine sensor placement

  21. Compression

  22. Tension

  23. Engineering Analysis • Avoid areas in the middle of EJ and areas right below or above flanges • Embed sensors in between these areas • Minimize risk of EJ leaking after sensors are embedded

  24. Engineering Analysis-Insert • Pullout force in ABS plastic is 900lbf • Assume fluid pressure of 2000psi (higher than burst pressure of EJ) • For .25 diameter thread, OD is .391

  25. Temperature Isolation of Pressure sensor • May not be able to find a pressure sensor that can withstand the temperature EJ does • Can use a tube protruding from EJ to dissipate heat • A stainless steel tube would need to extend at least 6 in out for our applications

  26. Instructions/Example Code • SD Card: • http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-micro-sd-breakout-board-card-tutorial/wiring • Analog Input to SD Card • http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Datalogger • Displaying to a LCD Display • http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/LiquidCrystalSerial

  27. Connection Diagram to LED Screen
