Abstract/Objective
Instructions & Procedures
In this lab, I will create a project and develop a ladder program to control the automated box sorting
conveyor system using TIA Portal and Factory IO. then, using my knowledge in ladder
programming, I will put in the necessary functionalities.
Conclusion
In conclusion we were able to program the conveyor to sort the boxes out from large to small and
built the function to kick out unwanted boxes during the sorting process. Also giving a real time
reading on the count of boxes and unwanted boxes

You are an engineer in a company that manufactures and designs several mechanical devices, and your manager asked you to help your customers. In this time, you have two customers, one of them wants to ask about internal combustion engines while the other requires a heat exchanger with particular specifications. Follow the parts in the following tasks to do your job and support your customers.Task 1:Your first customer asked for an internal combustion engine to use it in a designed car. Your role is to describe the operation sequence of different types of available engines, explain their mechanical efficiency, and deliver a detailed technical report which includes the following steps:STEP 1Describe with the aid of diagrams the operational sequence of four stroke spark ignition and four stroke compression ignition engines.STEP 2Explain and compare the mechanical efficiency of two and four-stroke engines.STEP 3Review the efficiency of ideal heat engines operating on the Otto and Diesel…

As an engineer responsible for monitoring works in the area of mechanical systems, you must evaluate the following situation: a large client in the retail area has a refrigeration system where it stores some chilled or frozen products to be sold on the sales floor.Recently, the customer's maintenance department has been questioning the system's performance and requested an evaluation of the system's behavior. You went to the location and requested some information from the maintenance manager about the system, who provided the following data: - The system operates with R-134a refrigerant;- The refrigerated environment is maintained at 0°C and the external environment at 26°C;- The refrigerant flow rate in the system is 0.08 kg/s; In addition to the data provided, you carried out some tests and measured the temperature of the refrigerant fluid at some specific points in the system, such as the compressor inlet and condenser outlet, finding values of 0°C and 26°C respectively.…

Problem 1: You are working in a consulting company that does a lot of hand calculations for designs in
Aerospace Industry for mechanical, thermal, and fluidic systems. You took the Virtual engineering
course, and you want to convince your boss and the team you work to move to modelling and simulation
in computers using a certain software (Ansys, Abaqus, etc). Discuss the benefits and pitfalls of computer
based models used within an industrial environment to solve problems in engineering.

In a hypothetical scenario respond to the following email to reasuure the owner and in an informative and professional way.
Dear Project Manager-
I am so excited to have broken ground on the new mixed use space. As I watch the underground utilities such as water, storm drain, and sewer get installed I find myself worrying about failures. What steps are you taking to ensure those systems will not have to be dug up and repaired later in the construction process? We cannot afford a delay of any kind. Could you please explain how you plan to prevent any delays and ensure that the systems are functional and leak free.
The other concern that has come up that I would like to address now is the comfort of the office staff. Our current building is not comfortable. I am wondering why. We have the temperature appropriately set and it is easily maintained, but people still complain. What can we do to ensure they will be comfortable in the new building? A few months ago I asked one of our…

Task 1
You are employed as a mechanical engineer within an unnamed research center, specializing in the
development of innovative air conditioning systems. Your division is tasked with providing computer-based
modeling and design solutions using computational fluid dynamics through ANSYS software. Your primary
responsibilities involve the analysis of horizontal channel dynamics to meet specific criteria. Under the
guidance of your immediate supervisor, you have been assigned unique responsibilities within an ongoing
project. As a member of the research team, your role includes constructing an appropriate model and
executing a sequence of simulation iterations to explore and enhance channel performance. Figure 1
provides a visualization of the horizontal channel under consideration. Consider 2D, incompressible, steady
flow in a horizontal channel at a Reynolds number of 150. The schematic below illustrates the channel flow,
not drawn to scale. For simplicity, neglect gravity. The…

Problem 3: A small gearing system in your brand-new 3D printer fails as you were printing,
leading to an overload in the motor and a fire in your home. The fire spreads, burning half of
Everglades National Park in the worst environmental disaster in US history.
The printer company blames you! Stating that you must have been misusing the printer some-
how. Use your engineering knowledge to "show those jerks you mean business!"
You investigate and find a serial number on the gears and type it into Google, finding the
company that manufactures the gears. Their website provides some info that this series of gear is
made from AISI 4340 steel and the yield strength is 125 kpsi.
Assuming each gear tooth acts as a small cantilever, prove to the 3D printer company that they
are liable for the fire.

After creating a decision matrix for two types of materials used to design a safety belt, an engineer assigns a weight of 4 to nylon for thickness and a weight of 5 to polyester for thickness. The engineer also assigns a weight of 4 to nylon for strength and a weight of 3 to polyester for strength. Polyester is more expensive than nylon. Describe which material would be preferable to use for the safety belt, if cost is prioritized as a criterion
