1. INTRODUCTION An engine is a device which transforms one form of energy into another form. Most of the engines convert thermal engine to mechanical work and therefore they are called heat engine. Heat engine can be broadly classified into two types. i. Internal combustion engine ii. External combustion engine 1.1 CLASSIFICATION OF INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE:- This type of engine is again classified into two types. i. Rotary ii. Reciprocating The reciprocating engine is a highly complex

such as the starter motor and the battery charging systems. There were no “intelligent safety systems‚” augmenting the bumper and structural members to protect occupants in case of accidents. Seat belts‚ introduced in the early 1960s‚ were for improving occupant safety and actuated completely mechanically. The driver or one of several mechanical control systems controlled all the engine systems. For instance‚ before the introduction of sensors and microcontrollers‚ a mechanical distributor selected

Techniques of Waste Heat Recovery Waste heat recovery is being more used more and more often today as it is becoming more effective‚ due to increasing energy prices‚ technological developments and a decrease in equipment costs. Heat recovery can be classified into three main strategies: recycling energy back into the process‚ recovering the energy for other onsite use and using it to generate electricity in combined heat and power systems. Once the system has been made as efficient as possible before

Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is defined as pneumonia that develops 48 hours or longer after patients has intubated and received mechanical ventilation. An infection may develop if microscopic organisms or germs invade the intubation of the patient’s lower respiratory tract and lung parenchyma (Koenig‚ S. M.‚ 2006). According to the 2009 National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) report‚ the accountability for ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) preventions includes hospital’s CEO and senior

This step towards the process of witness recovery led to a variety of case studies and reports being conducted to evaluate the effects on children when they become exposed to parental violence or death. This leads to the children having a challenging time recovery since it is such a personal trauma‚ even if experienced indirectly. There are studies that indicate that after experiencing such an event‚ the children have a difficult time adjusting and coping with the current problem and also the issues

A case study on the effect of oropharyngeal secretion and subglottic suctioning in prevention of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP). The purpose of this case study is to analyze the significance of subglottic suction in prevention of ventilator associated pneumonia .The case study is linked to the competency no1(Respiratory). This study aims to assess the evidence available to prove the need of frequent subglottic suction of oropharyngeal secretion to prevent VAP in mechanically ventilated patients

Recovery Audit Contract Prior Government Accountability Office work has helped identify problems with Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service’s actions to address improper payment vulnerabilities‚ and Department of Health and Human Service states that “prior Office of Inspector General(OIG) work identified problems with CMS’s inability to address referrals of potential fraud” (URL 2011). Hence‚ Congress created the Recovery Audit Contractor Program that was designed specifically to protect Medicare
