Pachter VT1 SMA Heat Engine Normally, a chain driven system transmits power from one rotating shaft to another. The VT1 SMA heat engine transmits power from the SMA chain to two rotating shafts. The design consists of a SMA driving roller-chain, two driven plastic sprockets whose teeth engage the rollers of a SMA chain, a synchronizer chain, and other components described in the following sections (figure 4.1). The Progressive Design of the VT1 Heat Engine Thermodynamic Modeling of the VT1 SMA HeatEngine Carnot Engine for a Liquid-Gas System SMA Heat Engine Limitation Limitations on the Performance of the Engine Conclusions and Recommendations The purpose of this thesis work was to present the design and analysis of an improved heat engine made using shape memory alloy. In light of the past work that has been attempted in this area, it seems unlikely that the earlier inventions could be scaled up to the point where they have practical utility. This thesis presents a new design that has the potential to be the basis for large SMA engines. Conclusions and Recommendations Develop a relationship between source and sink temperature and speed Vary the length of the chain and see the effect on torque and speed Vary the size of the sprocket and investigate its effect on torque and speed Conduct measurements of temperature and heat transfer rates at various points in the system. Although the measurements will be challenging, this will give information helpful in understanding the efficiency of the device. Calculate efficie
