Persian windmillFigure 2. Windmill design IPD1The wind blows from one direction on a building with an opening in the wall, where the air iscompressed and passes through and hits the rotors of a fan. The fan rotates, generating usable energy,which is converted to electrical energy. The generated electrical energy can be used for severaldifferent purposes.The main problem of the construction is based on the fact that the wind has to come from one specificdirection. By having the wind blowing right in the direction of the intake, the maximum output powerwould be generated. Since the wind does not blow in one singular direction, a lower output power willbe generated.The modern ordinary windmills have their own disadvantages: a lot of noise and a rotating shade onthe ground, implying in a loss of power. Other negative factor about windmills is the implied visualpollution they have altogether with the danger for flying animals. Because of the noise and shade, theycan only be built in areas with a low or no population degree, i.e. at the sea.Mister Scheepers has come up with the idea to make a combination of a Persian and a Dutch windmill.The purpose of the project is to research and build the best possible windmill, which can be used in anurban environment.After all the calculations and experimentations are done, a conclusive result may be obtained with thefinal prototype of the Persian-Dutch Windmill. A real world sized windmill may show differentbehavior from the discussed prototype.6

TheOntdekfabriek consists of different programs where children get to meet with different kinds oftechnology. The demonstration model that will be produced for the Ontdekfabriek inspires children tothe technologies used in the ASML machines, worked in to a game. In this game, children create a“fake” chip which controls a G-sensor. To accomplish this, children have to work together with a lightsource, lenses and mirrors to recreate the lithography process on bigger scale. While performing this,children will obtain knowledge of the process in ASML machines.7

HighHygiene BV is acompany with sustainable hygiene solutions, that provide high hygiene services at the lowest energycost.The company already has a device that makes soap powder from a soap bar, so the group already hasthe basic dispensing techniques. Now it is necessary to develop a soap dispenser that does the same,but automatic. This means that the soap powder should fall down without touching the device.The prototype must be able to dispense powder in constant small portions, triggered by movement of ahand, whilst using the minimum on battery power. The device must not use much energy, andrechargeable batteries are preferred.The main idea is to upgrade the existing company device, since some ideas of the current mechanismare very practical, cheap and easy to implement. The difficult part will be to develop the system thatactivates the grinder automatically. The electrical engineers in the group are thinking of using aninfrared sensor to activate a motor. This will make the grinder spin and cut the soap.8

A oven for the annealing of glass.Rapid cooling of molten glass generates an uneven temperature distribution in the body of the glasswhich results in mechanical stress sufficient to cause cracking before the object has reached ambienttemperature, or to result in susceptibility to cracking in later use, often resulting from thermal shock.To prevent this, objects manufactured from molten glass are annealed by cooling gradually in a lehrfrom a temperature just below the solidification point of the glass. Anneal cooling rate depends on thethickness of the glass, and can range from several tens of degrees Celsius per hour for thin sections toa fraction of a degree Celsius per hour for thick slabs or castings.In the early stage of this project a small research is done on how to downscale a Lehr oven and theeffects because of downscaling. But he main part of the project is about how to improve the energyefficiency of the Lehr oven.9

Even though one can by himself a fancy helicopter or air-cushion-hovercraft, it stilldoesn’t full fill the dreams of a fast and agile hover bike as seen in video games like the Manta fromUnreal Tournament 3. Certain designs already exist with dual-rotors and a single seat, but this projecttakes the concept to a new level by making it for more agile than the current designs.This particular group of individuals is focussing on building a frame that can carry all the componentsin the Concept-Proving-Prototype. The CPP it self is not supposed to be as agile and fast as the endproduct but merely a machine that will show that the new and innovative thrust and lift system willwork adequately. The client also needs this CPP to determine the exact location of the componentssince a slight shift in the position of, for example, the batteries will have a big influence on the balanceof the machine. This little shift in one component is enough for other components to be re-located andthe rotors to be re-configured as well. This makes a theoretical approach too complex to do 100%correct.Designing a frame that is light and yet strong enough to carry the components and cope with all theforces is an interesting task on its own. But designing a frame that is light, strong and extremelymodular makes a whole different challenge.12

Donatus Fontys School of Engineering Business EngineeringHarald Snel Fontys School of Engineering Mechanical EngineeringBrief description of the projectThis project is focused on the wound spreader development. The wound retractor is a medical tool thatis developed at Fontys University of Applied Science in cooperation with ION company. The designof the wound retractor is upgrading every year by different student groups to obtain the perfectfunctionality and quality of the product. The wound spreader is used in surgery of malignant rectallesions. The previous design was not good enough to use in the operation on human body.The goal of our team was to improve the design of the tool to make it more comfortable to use by asurgeon (usable by one hand). The three main mechanisms were redesigned to provide the full safetyof the patient during the operation. The other very important requirement that each medical aid mustfulfill is the ease of sterilization. During the design of new mechanisms we paid special attention tomake each part easy to implement in the sterilization procedure.14

The 4-lane-pool, along with the nation’s elite swimmers, offer theopportunity to new product en methods. The goal is to create a perfect working environment for theseswimmers and their coaches.This project is about one of the innovations. In order to optimize the start, a swimmer and coach liketo collect as much useful information as possible. Cameras already provide a visual feedback, but inthe future the starting block should be able to provide information as well. The idea is to develop ablock, which measures the force transferred to the block. This way the swimmer can identify even theslightest anomaly and work on improving themselves.15

After this the excessive material is removed with a knife. This takesup a lot of time and it may also damage the linoleum.For this project we look into different ways of filling the seam and try to eliminate the cutting step.The concept is to fill the seam with a paste. By designing and building a dosing unit the seam will befilled levelled to the linoleum plates which renders the cutting step unnecessary.The dosing unit will have to be extremely precise due to very small volumes.18

Some years later the physicist John Belldeveloped a theory, which can be applied to verify the completeness of quantum theory.A quantum entanglement setup has been used to perform an experiment which allows us to violate thebell inequality, and consequently verify the completeness of quantum theory.The experiment will be integrated into the minor of applied physics, but because the theory behind theexperiment is not part of the curriculum, a manual has to be written in such a way that most studentswill understand the concepts behind the experiment. This, without knowledge of all the complexmathematics.21

This type ofheating needs a lot of maintenance and contains some hidden costs. Antech Instruments and ARdecoratie deal in another type of heating systems. This system is based on far infrared radiation that isradiated by panels. Far infrared radiation is comparable with the sun’s heat radiation. Therefore it isconsidered comfortable. These panels are easy to install and have no maintenance costs. They arepowered by electricity instead of gas. However they are not comparable to traditional patioheaters.The assignment for this project was to make an independent comparison between traditional centralheating and far infrared heating panels. This comparison contains the following aspects:- Costs/energy consumption- Working principle- Types of heat transport (convection or radiation)- Sustainability22

Ideally it would be a handheld device and no sensor would be placed inside the tire. Thisgoal is very difficult to reach, therefore the focus is on finding a measurement method that does notneed a sensor inside the tire and does not involve using the valve.Two techniques have been investigated. The first technique is investigated on a bicycle tire and it usesthe shape of the tire to determine if the tire has the right pressure. Pictures are made of the tire andprocessed in a Labview program.The second technique is investigated on car tires. Pressure sensors are placed in line on the ground andthe car tire is placed on top. It is placed so the line that the sensors make is along the width of the tire.The difference of the pressure the tire performs on the sensors is measured. This method indirectlyalso uses the tire shape to determine if the tire has the right pressure.When the tire has a high pressure it will have a rounded shape (see Figure 1 left picture). When a tirehas less pressure inside it will be less rounded and contact area will be larger (see Figure 1 middle andright picture). As a result the pressure the outside parts put on the ground is higher. At the same timethe pressure the inside parts put on the ground will decrease. The increase of the pressure on theoutside parts and the decrease of the pressure on the inside parts of the tire is what the secondtechnique will be able to measure.Figure 3: Shape of a bicycle tire for different pressures. Left picture shows the shape for high pressure,middle picture shows the shape for normal pressure and right picture shows the shape for lowpressure.23
