Wind pump in action

The Wind Pump is a project from the sophomore-level course MAE 2250: Mechanical Synthesis. the goal is to design and fabricate a wind-powered pump capable of pumping 1 liter water 1.5 meters upwards per minute using the provided wind turbine.

​

My contribution includes making key design decisions, develop overall CAD model and performing the majority of mathematical calculations as a proof of concept.

 

The result is a single piston single cylinder crankshaft pump capable of performing the required task.
