Wouldn’t it be fun to ride a torpedo‚ or drive a nuclear reactor around underwater? In this research paper I am going to illustrate the ingenious submarine. <br><br>The submarine is one of the most important strategic and tactical weapons systems of the 20th Century‚ and this importance will increase in the 21st Century. The tiny‚ leaking‚ creaking‚ and unsafe submarine boats of the 1890’s‚ displacing under two hundred tons and carrying a handful of men and a few torpedoes have grown into massive

INTRODUCTION CRDi stands for Common Rail Direct Injection meaning‚ direct injection of the fuel into the cylinders of a diesel engine via a single‚ common line‚ called the common rail which is connected to all the fuel injectors. Whereas ordinary diesel direct fuel-injection systems have to build up pressure anew for each and every injection cycle‚ the new common rail (line) engines maintain constant pressure regardless of the injection sequence. This pressure

ABSTRACT The purpose of this project is to determine the effect the size of an automobile’s wheel radius will have on that vehicle’s performance. To determine this‚ the distance a car travels when tested with the same propulsion force but different wheel diameter is measured. We expect that there will be an optimum size that should be utilized in order to achieve maximum efficiency. A larger or smaller wheel size should change the distance that the car will travel. The cars we

Chapter 16: Energy Management and Audit in Best Exports 16.1 What Is Energy? Energy is the ability to do work and work is the transfer of energy from one form to another. In practical terms‚ energy is what we use to manipulate the world around us‚ whether by exciting our muscles‚ by using electricity‚ or by using mechanical devices such as automobiles. Energy comes in different forms - heat (thermal)‚ light (radiant)‚ mechanical‚ electrical‚ chemical‚ and nuclear energy. 16.2 Definition

HYDRAULIC TURBINES Meaning of the term ‘Hydraulic’ • The working fluid is a liquid or a gas?? ANSWER – WORKING FLUID IS A LIQUID. TURBINE – WORKING PRINCIPLE • In turbines the pressure energy is converted into mechanical energy(which is further converted into electrical energy). WORKING PRINCIPLE OF PUMPS it is just the reverse of the above‚ that is‚ the mechanical energy is converted into pressure energy. OUR FOCUS OF STUDY • Working of various types of hydraulic turbines.

affected by the type of fuel used (some designs provide for dual fuel). This project will mainly focus on thermal power plants with gas & oil as an energy source. The gas & oil fired plants would permit the clean burning installation and result in less complex controls‚ support equipment and fuel handling arrangements. Major power plant components In the design of a power plant we are concerned with hundred of different components and dozens of structures and systems. Most of the mechanical

water boils at 12′C if the pressure on the surface of water is kept at 0.014 bar and at 7′C if the pressure on the surface of water is 0.01 bar. The reduced pressure on the surface of water is maintained by throttling the steam through the jets or nozzles. Working of steam jet refrigeration system: - The flash chamber or evaporator is a large vessel and is heavily insulated to avoid the rise in temperature of water due to high ambient temp. It is fitted with perforated pipes for spraying water. The
