Thermo-fluid-dynamics, also known as thermal-fluid sciences, is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles from thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer to study and analyze the behavior of thermal systems. These systems involve the transfer of energy in the form of heat and the movement of fluids such as air and Read more…
After several years of testing different devices and software for the smart home, I found the definitive solution: Home Assistant. It is an open-source home automation platform that allows you to control and monitor various devices and services within your home. It serves as a centralized hub that connects and Read more…
Due to an investigation on thermal systems, for another project, I needed to read a signal that controls a water pump in order to detect how much power was effectively used as well as the real flow based on different pump curves depending on different power percentages. After several research Read more…
In dealing with subjects known as STEM, or science, technology, engineering and mathematics, we often resort to technical diagrams, reports, specialized illustrations and much other material that certainly requires technical skills but also illustrator ones. Although they are very particular skills, there are some software that every student / teacher Read more…
This article presents a smart alternative to control units for solar thermal systems. There are several options on the market, from elementary devices to more advanced control systems. In this case a very simple system is used, consisting of two Sonoff intelligent switches and relative temperature sensor. This system, in Read more…
The next fireplace was born from a drawing elaborated with the marble worker on paper and then digitized. The design of the flue and various draft adjustment operations follow the design phase of the external frame. Subsequent operations led to the creation of a groove and several air intakes to Read more…
Let’s see in detail a practical realization of a workstation following some ergonomic standards and new technologies present in the consumer market such as the thunderbolt 3 port. Workstation After several evolutions, the final station sees a 180cm desk completely free. At the rear there is a 34” curved monitor Read more…
