Abstract
The product is a centrifugal air extractor, whose objective is to extract the stale air of SARS-CoV-2 or Covid-19 (Coronavirus); designed for civil and commercial use, it works with a single-phase alternating current (AC) motor of 220 (V) and 50 (Hz), with high energy efficiency (EE). Developed under the Design Thinking methodology, by electromechanical simulation using NI Multisim 14.0 software, case design using Cfturbo 2020 R2.0 CAD software, and rapid 3D prototyping with the OverLord Pro printer; with a prototype of the conventional stator winding of a synchronous motor with a two-pole PMSM/IPM single-phase alternating current (AC) field winding and a 4000 (Gauss) ferromagnetic ceramic magnet rotor. Innovating online nº 15 of invention patent nº 381968 by Nikola Tesla, 5/1/1888.One of the objectives is to link the middle level or Technical Schools with the University system (and careers with a Technological profile) through Project B374 located in the Secretariat of Science and Technology (SCyT) of the National University of La Plata ( UNLP), whose title is: “Integrated Management of Design and Innovation. Contributions for a theoretical-conceptual and methodological review” by the Director: Mg. Federico del Giorgio Solfa. Just as links were sought with the Research and Development Laboratory of the Department of Industrial Design (LIDDI-FBA-UNLP) through its Director D.I. Pablo Ungaro and D.I. Ana Bocos. In 2021, the project participated in the INNOVAR National Contest of the Ministry of Science, Technology and Productive Innovation of the Nation (MINCYT), Argentine Republic; in the "Covid-19 Projects" category, having been selected in the catalog of innovative products, won the 1st. "Covid-19 Projects" position of the National Agency for Research and Technological Development and local innovation (R+D+i) dependent on MINCYT.The results showed, according to the analysis of the test bench, that the PMSM/IPM type synchronous motor used in the centrifugal fan, with the innovation of the reactance-inductive control in series plus the capacitor in parallel, reduces the power by 67% (Watts) and active energy consumption (kWh), performing 56% more mechanical work (Joules) on the fluid air (with a 50% reduction in carbon footprint). Which leads us to the following conclusion: it is possible to develop centrifugal fans that save electricity (kWh) without the need to resort to (1) the "Fan Affinity Law", nor (2) the use of variable speed drives (VDF) or frequency (which are devices with complex and expensive electronics). Which would bring an enormous saving of the cost of electrical energy.
