  1. LAKOTA CAET TEAM Erich Vaughan Ryan Adams Brandon Gerber Jonah Lindner Faculty Advisor: Dr. Earl Duque College of Engineering and Technology Capstone Design Presentation April 26, 2002

  2. AEROMAG Corporation “A next generation wind turbine generator and solar energy company specializing in hybrid renewable energy systems and components.” AEROMAG Specializes in: Helping you get off the grid But how? • Wind Energy Systems • Solar Energy Systems • Micro Hydroelectric Systems Lakota CAET Team Capstone Design Presentation

  3. Executive Summary AEROMAG Corporation of Prescott Valley, AZ requires a working model of a Lakota Compressed Air Energy Turbine (CAET). Lakota is an existing wind turbine, which will be retrofitted to power a compressor. Lakota CAET is the compressor and Lakota combination. Lakota CAET facilitates compressed air energy storage via a ground level pressure vessel for a variety of applications. Lakota CAET Team Capstone Design Presentation

  12. Furled Turbine Wind Furling Springs Lakota CAET Team Capstone Design Presentation

  13. Deliverables/Scope of Work • Select Compressor and Seal • Design/Analyze – Compressor Housing, Yaw • Assembly, & Shaft • Develop Bench Test Procedure • Produce Final Drawings (AutoCAD R14) • AEROMAG Machines Parts needed for CAET Prototype • Build and Bench Test Prototype Lakota CAET Team Capstone Design Presentation

  14. Functional Requirements • Compressor geometry must not interfere with furling or flow • characteristics • Compressed air transport must be incorporated into yaw • assembly • Compressed air will be stored in pressure vessel • Pressure vessel must exhaust excess air pressure • 6 mph cut-in speed • Survive wind speeds up to 120 mph • Obtain maximum power between 8-9 mph Lakota CAET Team Capstone Design Presentation

  15. Nonfunctional Requirements • Must utilize as much existing material as possible • Design must meet AEROMAG’s aesthetic standards • Design must be economically viable • Ten year design life with one scheduled maintenance action • Manufacturing drawings must utilize metric dimensions Lakota CAET Team Capstone Design Presentation

  16. Retrofit of Existing Castings/Components • Compressor and Seal Integration • Shaft Coupling • Machine Design / FE Model • Manufacturing Drawings Lakota CAET Team Capstone Design Presentation

  17. Compressor Selection • Oil-less • One maintenance action every 5 years • Size Constraints • Overall length < 6 in. • Weather Resistance (possible marine applications) • Availability Lakota CAET Team Design Review Presentation
