Secondarily, its thickness allows for wear over the life of the clutch. However, that wear results from a fundamental drawback of diabetics design. Since the armature is thick and massive, it has a high inertia, and all of its originally stationary mass must be “spun up” to match the rapidly rotating pulley and friction disk…

Steam Turbine is a type of turbo machine. Turbo machine are those devices in which energy is transferred either to or from, a continuously flowing fluid by the dynamic action of one or more moving blade rows. In steam turbine energy is transferred from fluid to blade rows and is decreasing along the flow directions….

INTRODUCTION Conventional diesel and petrol are both produced from mineral oil, but using different refining methods. While diesel is in principle easier to refine than gasoline, it needs to be cleaned from more pollutants to ensure that tailpipe emissions remain as low as possible. However, diesel contains more energy than petrol and the vehicle’s engine…

The Four-Stroke CycleWhat really makes a car go? There are many parts to an engine that are visible, like an alternator, starter, hoses, wires and a bunch of other things. But what is in the inside and how does it work? The process is really just a mixture of parts, moving in sync in a…

Performance Characteristics of Belton Wheel (Impulse Purpose: To investigate typical performance characteristics of an impulse turbine. Apparatus: Ramified Belton Turbine, Ramified Hydraulics Bench and digital tachometer. Sketch a labeled schematic diagram of the apparatus. Theory and Definitions: (Ref. Munson/Young/Schools A Brief Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, 3/e, p. 479) 1. Ideal power and efficiency From 1…

If you study and look at the history of a snowmobile engine, it has improved in many ways. I feel they have improved in two major ways. Number one being in performance, and number two they’re more environmentally safe. In order for you to understand how this has happened, I will explain to you the…

Windmills are “structures or machines that convert wind into usable energy through the rotation of a wheel made up of adjustable blades. ” They are used for pumping water, grinding grain, and for power. Windmills are usually found on homesteads or on farms. The first windmill was built in the 1st century by Heron of…

An electric generator is fundamentally an electric motor working backwards. An electric motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. and an electric generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. An electric generator looks about indistinguishable to an electric motor. Each consists of a cringle that is able to revolve in a magnetic field. The electric…

Malware is a very wide spread virus that can be run on a remote machine and steal personal information such as email account passwords, bank passwords, credit cards details, etc. This information can be used over the internet to engage in criminal activities or any illegal works. The intruders send the malware in many forms…
