Out of commision

for couple of weeks, been seriously ill, had my teeth removed and it has just been overall crap. shervyn doing great on his peilter project and not sure what mohammads been doing. I have questions to think about: 1- We have to spray the water instead of having plain water going into the exhaust to achieve: A- To have a quicker time to heat up the water. B- Less energy used to heat up the water. C- Avoiding cooling the exhaust.( because of we use plain water to run through the exhaust, it will cool it down instead of harvesting the heat, but if we use small particles of water the exhaust temperature will not be effected) 2- In order to spray water we might use water injection system similar to fuel injection systems to break down the water into small particles to get super stream. 3- Thinking of way to restocking that excess pressurized water. We must have an open system so pressure won't build up in our system. 4- Thinking of ways to condense the stream into water. 5- How deliver super steam for cooking. 6- Think of maybe having a specially designed cooker. 7- Our pipes that used for cooking must be copper since the optimum element used for a quickest heat transfer. 8- We have to think of ways to prevent our pipes from being cooled down after they've been super streamed, so we could use some pipes which called Polima pipes that are an insulation pipes themselves.

Good and Bad 2012 Industry Project

Ups and Downs smiles and Frowns, that's all i have to say. If there was anything there would be a lot of negative stuff to say and a a lot of positive too i suppose. There was alot of things going on within the group that i didn't not like, in the end it showed. Good end to 2012 though, had a great year. Love, Chris

Completion

Assignment was finished on Monday and handed in, Done and dusted. We didn't get to catch up last week, i fell ill with bronchitis and the team decided to work from home. We caught up today and worked on our presentation, it has been a great success, there were points to clarify and discuss which now when brought to our attention we could fully understand what and where things went wrong, and i think that was a good part of our learning. Presentation tomorrow, will be turning up early and hopefully be the first to present our work.

"I" am in TEAM

I have done a lot of research into steam, however a lot of the steam research i made had to be compacted into a format which was about 2500 words, instead of the 8000 i had. It seems that i have learn about steam and many purposes it has not only for the one purpose that is in our project. I have heard our advisory is going through a bit of a hard time, so it is understandable what that means and i decided that i would just give some space rather than hunt him down with questions as he got back. also, was informed that my team members have a better work ethic on there own than collaborating as a group, if i knew it was going to be as such i probably would have pick other members to work with earlier as the whole year to present this topic was just a struggle, i didn't feel to confident working on my own, and would have preferred to work with a encouraging team that works in a study environment together rather than meetings once a week, maybe once in a month and all just to go over what they have done by themselves, there's no learning in that and opposed to working and studying together making the project happen. It was separated and confused by doing individual work, which was not the intention in the first place.

Almost finished

Had a meeting with the gang last week and reviewed our project, there is a lot of content, almost to much content, so we are considering restructuring the project so we can create a more simplified version which is still very explanatory. We will be seeing each other again tomorrow morning to revise.

Tech Project almost complete

With our team members working delightedly, we are almost complete. We will be catching up with Anura next week with the project as a whole group before we present it to the audience on the 7th of November. Still a lot to do in so little time.

Posting

Wrapping up a lot of assignments on other sides, have got to stick to the project we are going to be assessed on in about a month, so its time to start gelling our project together as a team and make it work. It is going well so far however.
