Water Wheel Design You have been asked to design a water wheel that will generate electricity from a river in the northern range. Because the flow rate from the river can fluctuate depending on seasonal rainfall, you have decided to include a holding tank that will maintain a fairly constant water leve Water from this tank will then fall onto the wheel to generate the electricity. Because there will still be fluctuations due to the flow rate of the river, the final device will need to include automatically controlled valving to maintain a constant power output. Because this is a very complex system, you have decided to develop a simplified mathematical model for the system, to help you firstly predict how changes to the in-flow rate of the stream will affect the rotational speed of the water wheel. A simple representation of this system is shown below. e Water wheel Answer all questions below showing revelent calculations and working with explanation where necessary. 1.Create a mathematical model for the system shown. 2.Develop a transfer function for 0(s)/Qi(s), state the constants that you have used in your transfer function. [ Hint: You would also need to derive Q(s)/Qi(s) to predict a theoretical value for the increase in rotational speed ] (Note: Omega, Q=Angular speed]
