When considering the purchase of pressure transducer for inclusion in a refrigerator chiller, pump, pump skid, engine test equipment or other machinery to be built and shipped to an end user, one must seriously consider the manufacturing environment. A transducer's successful operation and life are directly related to the system design and assembly processes.
Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) that follow a strict Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) methodology will have few, if any, transducer problems. In addition, they will enjoy fewer part numbers, lower costs, and longer machine life. OEMs that do not adhere to DFMA practices increase the probability to encounter various issues, including transducer problems and failures.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

6 Things OEM Design Engineers Need to Know
1. 1
6 THINGS OEM DESIGN ENGINEERS NEED TO KNOW
About the Manufacturing Environment Before They
Specify a Pressure Transducer
When selecting a pressure transducers for use within a refrigeration chiller, pump, pump
skid, engine test equipment or other machinery to be built and shipped to an end-user, the
manufacturing environment should be considered. A transducer’s successful operation and
life are directly related to the system design and assembly processes.
Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) that follow a strict Design for Manufacturing and
Assembly (DFMA) methodology will have few, if any, transducer problems. Other benefits
include fewer part numbers, lower costs and longer machine life. OEMs that do not adhere
to DFMA practices increase the likelihood of reoccurring issues, including transducer failure.
Today’s transducers are designed to be rugged enough to withstand excessive temperature,
voltage, electromagnetic inference/radio-frequency inference (EMI/RFI), shock, handling
and overpressure. However, if transducers are subjected to a manufacturing environment
that exceeds the supplier’s specified limits of these variables during storage or assembly,
sensor issues will occur. It’s easy to forget that a pressure transducer is a highly engineered
piece of electrical equipment, due to its small footprint and resemblance to simple mechan-
ical components. An OEM design engineer should take note of the following six conditions
while designing a system to be manufactured and shipped to a customer.
1. Temperature
Excessively high temperatures are a common source of pressure transducer issues. Like
most other electronic equipment, they consist of numerous components that only function
within specified temperature ranges.Transducers that are exposed to temperatures exceed-
ing those ranges during the assembly process can be negatively affected.
For example, if an OEM is welding directly next to a transducer, the heat generated from the
welder could cause the transducer circuit board solder to reflow. This will result in open cir-
cuits or bad joints, causing faulty readings or intermittent problems before or after shipping
to the end-user.

Section 5:
Shock & Vibration
Section 6:

2. 2
Similarly, a transducer could be damaged by a heat gun used to shrink wrap a chiller if ex-
cessive heat is applied within inches of the sensor. Operators must be aware of the harmful
effects this can have on pressure transducers, so preventative actions can be taken.
Although the machine is being built on the OEM’s manufacturing floor, consideration should
also be given to the environment where the machine will be installed. For instance, a pres-
sure transducer installed on a steam line very close to where the steam is being generated
will cause a negative change in the dynamics of the sensor. In this case, a simple solution
can be to move the transducer further away from the steam line.
2. Voltage Spikes
Voltage spikes are another potential problem that can impact transducer function after
being installed in machinery on the OEM’s manufacturing floor. Voltage spikes are short
durations of electrical transients in voltage. These high-energy surges only last a few milli-
seconds, but still can cause damage. They are often extremely difficult to trace unless the
source is obvious, such as lightning.
Beyond the obvious, OEM engineers should think about potential causes of voltage spikes.
For example, an OEM’s customer mounted a pressure transducer on a chiller’s water pipe.
The customer was unaware of an arc welding operation in an adjacent building that used
a ground clamp on that same water pipe. Intermittent arc restrikes induced large sporadic
voltage spikes that were carried through the pipe and water to the transducer, destroying
its circuitry. OEM engineers must be aware of their entire manufacturing environment and
beyond for potential risks for failure. A conversation with the pressure transducer supplier
can be helpful in identifying and eliminating this type of problem.
Another potential source of voltage spikes in the manufacturing environment is the electro-
static painting process. Painting often occurs after an OEM completely assembles a refrig-
eration chiller, for example. In electrostatic painting an electrode is attached to the chiller’s
metal surface to ground it. The sprayed paint has a positive charge, which is attracted to the
negatively charged metal as if it were a magnet. Although electrostatic painting is an effi-
cient, durable and cost-effective industrial method of coating, it must be considered when
designing and planning for transducer installation.
If voltage spikes have been a reoccurring problem, contact the engineering department
about the use of AC voltage stabilizers, zener diodes or other voltage limiting strategies.
3. Fluorescent Lighting
Fluorescent lighting can also be a problem for pressure transducers. Fluorescent lamps re-
quire an initial high voltage to start the electrical arc through the argon and mercury, which
heats the mercury until it becomes a gas.This initial voltage spike presents a potential prob-
lem for pressure transducers. Additionally, the magnetic field that fluorescent lighting cre-
ates can induce voltages into transducer wires, which the control system may misinterpret
as an actual output signal. As a result of these issues, transducers should not be located
underneath or within close proximity to fluorescent lighting.
4. EMI/RFI
A pressure transducer converts pressure into an electrical signal and is by nature susceptible
to the negative effects of electromagnetic emissions or electrical disturbances. Transducer
manufacturers do their best to protect the transducer from outside disturbances, but cer-
tain design considerations could reduce or prevent EMI/RFI effects.
3. 3
It is recommended to locate motor generator sets at a safe distance from machinery in-
stalled with transducers and its associated wiring to prevent faulty signals and other trou-
bles caused by induced voltage. Other EMI/RFI sources to avoid include contractors, power
lines, computers, walkie talkies, cell phones and large machinery that produce varying mag-
netic fields. The most common ways of reducing EMI/RFI noise are shielding, filtering and
suppression. Contact the pressure transducer manufacturer for help on how these preven-
tative measures can be implemented.
OEMs that follow National Electrical Code (NEC) guidelines, run low voltage lines in con-
duits separate from high voltage raceways, such as for a pump skid application. Other OEMs,
however, run power and signal cables in the same conduit. As a result, they may experience
signal lines with extra induced voltage, which may run the length of the low voltage wires,
presenting a possible electrical problem for an application like pump skids.
Also, it is advisable for OEMs to have different power sources for the transducer and con-
trol system. The risk comes from de-energized relays in the control circuit creating back an
electromagnetic field (EMF) that will travel to the power source, causing a voltage spike. If
it’s more than the supplier’s maximum rated voltage, the transducer will be permanently
damaged and burn marks can be visible on the circuitry.
5. Shock & Vibration
Shock and vibration are two potential mechanical problems for transducers. Shock is a sud-
den, unexpected impact that transmits energy to a device in a relatively short time interval.
For a transducer, that energy passes through the stainless steel up through the housing.
Shock may originate from rough transportation and handling, sources includes trucks, fork-
lifts and conveyors. Alternately, shock can be caused by dropping the transducer on the
shop floor or by an assembler slamming a cabinet door adjacent to it. A transducer may not
be damaged by a single shock, but can experience fatigue failure with numerous low level
shocks over the course of its life.
Vibration can be defined as the continuous oscillation directed at the transducer. For exam-
ple, in an engine test cell, the running engine emits a constant vibration that might affect
transducer operation if its mounted too close.
Shock and vibration can cause a wide range of problems, including dented enclosures, dis-
connected wires, broken circuit boards, faulty signals, intermittent problems and shortened
life. To prevent shock and vibration during the assembly procedure, OEMs should first real-
ize this potential problem and take appropriate measures to prevent it. A simple solution is
to install transducers as remotely as possible from obvious sources of shock and vibration.
Depending on the installation, another possible solution can be the use of shock and vibra-
tion isolators.
Transducer suppliers can provide OEMs with information needed to design a system where
the transducer can be handled appropriately during installation. They advise engineers to
design their transducer installation so only a few tools are used for its assembly, increas-
ing the likelihood that the correct tool will be used. For example, assemblers shouldn’t use
channel locks that may gouge and scratch the pipe when a standard open-end wrench will
work. If the assembly is heavier than the approved weight limit, assure enough people are
involved in the lifting he assembly to avoid damage.

6. Overpressure
Once an OEM has assembled the machine, either on their manufacturing floor or at the end
user’s location, be aware of overpressure. Causes of overpressure include fluid hammer, un-
intentional heat applied to the system and a faulty pressure regulator. Pressure transducers
can withstand occasional pressures up to their proof pressure rating, eventually returning
to their natural state. Pressures that reach burst pressure can rupture the diaphragm or case
and cause leakage. Pressures above proof but below burst pressure can result in permanent
diaphragm deformation, causing an output shift.
To prevent overpressure, OEM engineers must understand the dynamics of their system
and the limits of the transducer. As they design it, they need to be aware of the interaction
of pumps, control valves, balancing valves, check valves, pressure switches, motors, com-
pressors, tanks and other system components. They should consider how the interaction of
these devices can lead to problems like overpressure and design a system that will prevent
them.
In addition, OEMs must be conscious of pressure swings in their own system. A review of
service calls, warranty claims and conversations with service personnel will reveal the caus-
es and ranges of actual overpressure occurrences. Engineers can then design a better sys-
tem and select the proper transducer for it.
OEM engineers have the responsibility of designing a machine or system that will work
effectively with minimal problems, first in their own manufacturing environment and lat-
er at their customer’s facility. OEMs that follow a strict DFMA methodology enjoy the cost
benefits. The first step in accomplishing this is to thoroughly understand the system and
eliminate problems that have occurred in previous designs. Remember to factor in the de-
sign conditions for temperature, voltage, EMI/RFI, shock, handling and overpressure that
could be exposed to the equipment. Once those variables are identified, select pressure
transducers and other equipment that will work effectively in that environment. A pressure
transducer manufacturer can also provide technical assistance or recommendations during
the design phase of project. The result will be a highly efficient, trouble-free machine or
system that requires limited maintenance and will exceed its rated service lifetime.
