Five Casting Design Tips Useful for a Casting Product Designer
Incorrect casting product design is one of the reasons why you end up producing faulty casting components. The communication language between casting product design engineer and casting component manufacturer is casting drawing.…
Determination of propulsive power by model testing
The power required to propel a ship is proportional to its speed times the resistance to its movement. The ability to predict resistance is therefore the essential ingredient in predicting…
Failure, Composite Delamination, and Damage Assessment
In the concurrent design and analysis of parts, accompanying testing, and field usage, predictive failure assessment is critical for success. This phase links existing or potential load environment scenarios with empirical…
Difference between the Theoretical and Actual p-v diagram of a 4 stroke petrol Engine Actual suction
During the suction stroke the atmospheric air must be entered into the engine cylinder. Then the suction pressure must be below the atmosphere air. At the start of the suction…
Characteristics and Properties of Fuels
§ Fuels are any material that store potential energy in forms, which upon burning in oxygen liberates heat energy. § Calorific value of fuel is the total quantity of heat liberated when…
hydrodynamics
Design of the hull The shape of a ship hull is determined by many competing influences. For ease of construction, it should be a rectangular box; for adequate transverse stability, it…
Comparison Between Fire Tube and Water Tube Boiler
Comparison between Fire Tube and Water Tube Boiler can be done in 14 aspects. Those aspects are operating pressure, passage of material type in tubes, rate of steam generation, handling of load fluctuation, floor…
Air-cooling System in Reciprocating Engine
In an air-cooling system, the outer surface of the cylinder and cylindrical head in reciprocating engine is cooled by air flowing over them. To increase the heat transfer rate from the surface,…
Construction and Working of Liquid Nitrogen Plant?
Liquid Nitrogen (77 K boiling point) is one of the important cryogen in liquid state and which is used for precooling medium to produce liquid Helium and Hydrogen. Liquid Nitrogen…
Stability
The capsizing of large ships that have not suffered flooding from hull damage is virtually unheard of, but it remains a serious hazard to smaller vessels that can experience large…
