The History of the Modern Can: Sustenance and Reliability Word Count: 3‚415 The modern can is something that most people take for granted each time they make a trip to their local supermarket. The can is an invention that evolved from war‚ as many great inventions do. Over time new technological innovations have given rise to better technologies to make cans and preserve food for longer periods of time. The early can’s conception was advanced yet simple‚ among the top inventions of the world.

1-INTRODUCTION:- The increasing demand of electrical power in cities and industrial centres necessitates the installation of a compact and efficient distribution and transmission network. High voltage gas insulated switchgear (GIS) is ideal for such applications. The range of application of SF₆ Gas Insulated Switchgear extends from voltage ratings of 72.5 kV up to 800 kV with breaking currents of up to 63 kA‚ and in special cases up to 80 kA. Both small transformer substations and large load- centre

A spigot and recess is provided in the flanges to provide location between them. The flanges are connected firmly by means of fitted bolts which are tightened accordingly to the torque to be transmitted. FLEXIBLE OR COMPENSATING COUPLINGS Flexible couplings are normally used in areas where the coaxiallity between

Reliability Issues – Centrifugal Slurry Pumps Introduction Pumps were probably the first machine ever developed‚ and are now the second most common machine in use around the world‚ out-numbered only by the electric motor. The very earliest type of pump is now known as a water wheel‚ Persian wheel or “noria”‚ consisting of a wheel of buckets that rotates to pick up water from a stream and dump it into a trough. Another early pump was the “Archimedean screw”‚ similar to the modern screw conveyor

GRINDING MACHINES Grinding is the process of removing metal by the application of abrasives which are bonded to form a rotating wheel. When the moving abrasive particles contact the workpiece‚ they act as tiny cutting tools‚ each particle cutting a tiny chip from the workpiece. It is a common error to believe that grinding abrasive wheels remove material by a rubbing action; actually‚ the process is as much a cutting action as drilling‚ milling‚ and lathe turning. The grinding machine supports and

Problem Description: The main purpose of this report is to show how to solve a 3-D finite element model of a cantilever I-shape beam‚ which is subjected to two concentrated loads (P = 1600 lb.) at the flanges of the free end along z axis. In this assignment‚ a convergence study will be used to determine the convergence of the solution with respect to mesh refinement. In addition‚ it will be used to achieve an accurate solution for problems that have sufficiently dense mesh‚ which cannot be solve
