About Whirlpool Ntchito Yaikulu: Chubu cha Puleti

Zolemba za Bukhu: Whirlpool ndi chubu cha puleti chopangidwa kuti chiziziritse ma disiki a mabuleki. Ma spoke ake ali ndi mawonekedwe ofanana ndi propeller, ozikidwa pa ma propeller a ndege. Pa nthawi yoyimitsa galimoto, kukhudzana pakati pa ma pedi a bureki ndi disiki ya bureki kumakweza kutentha mwachangu, ndipo kutentha kwakukuluku kumachepetsa nthawi yogwira ntchito ya disiki. Mapangidwe a Whirlpool amasonkhanitsa mpweya wozungulira puleti ndikuwutsogolera ku pakati pa disiki ya bureki. Mayendedwe a mpweyawu amazizirira disikiyo pomwe galimotoyo ikuyenda. Chubucho chimapangidwa ndi zitsulo zosakanikirana za titaniyamu ndipo chimapangidwa mwa njira ya kuundira ndi kusinja pogwiritsa ntchito makina a CNC.

About the Mphoto ya Bronze ya A' Design Award

Whirlpool Ntchito Yaikulu: Chubu cha Puleti ndi mmodzi mwa opambana a Mphoto ya Bronze ya A' Design Award, kuzindikirika kolemekezeka kwambiri komwe kumaperekedwa kwa mapangidwe abwino kwambiri omwe amaonekera ndi luso lolenga, kuchenjera ndi nzeru zakuthwa. Opambana a Bronze ndi zinthu zaluso kwambiri ndi zolenga modabwitsa zomwe zimatsimikizira zochitika zazikulu, kulingalira ndi kuchenjera kwa opanga awo. Whirlpool Ntchito Yaikulu: Chubu cha Puleti akuyembekezeka kukhala chinthu choyamikiridwa, chosirira ndi chokondedwa, chaukatswiri wapadera ndi chatsopano. Mapangidwe opambana Mphoto ya Bronze ya A' Design Award awa amaphatikiza machitidwe abwino kwambiri a luso, sayansi, kapangidwe ndi ukadaulo ndipo ndi abwino kwambiri chifukwa cha kusamala kwawo zazing'ono. Whirlpool Ntchito Yaikulu: Chubu cha Puleti amakwaniritsa zosowa mokongola, kukhudza zilakolako, kukopa mitima ndi kudzutsa chidwi.

Unique Properties: Conventional wheels do not have the function of cooling the brake discs. This wheel hub has a good air diversion function, which can quickly collect the air around the wheel hub and spread to the center of the disc, which can extend the life of the brake disc by cooling.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width 432mm x Depth 203mm x Height 432mm.
Tags: Wheel Hub, Whirlpool, Cool, Titanium, Brake Discs
Production Technology: This wheel is made of titanium alloy material, using pouring and CNC processes, taking into account the function and aesthetics of the product.
Design Challenge: How to use the knowledge of fluid mechanics to cool high-speed air vortex and high-temperature brake discs is the most tuned part of the entire design. Through continuous testing, the design team finally found a more ideal wheel shape.
Research: The research of this project is mainly to understand the defects of the product through literature reading, and to evaluate and test the 3D model virtually through the evaluation module in Alias software.
Inspiration: When the car brakes, the temperature of the brake disc rises sharply due to the high-speed friction of the brake disc by the brake pad, which will greatly affect the life of the brake disc. So our team wanted to design a hub that could cool the brake disc when braking. The design of the wheels is inspired by the propellers of an aircraft.
Project Duration: The project started in October 2022 in Changshu and finished in December 2022 in Changshu
Operation Flow: The spokes of this hub are made of a propeller-like structure. When running at high speeds, the hub can cool the high temperatures caused by braking by drawing in air.
