e) Stage and airflow through a stage in axial flow compressor A stage is a pair of rotating airfoil and stationary airfoil in an axial flow compressor. As the air passes through the rotating airfoil (also called a blade or rotor), its velocity increases. High velocity air then passes through the stationary airfoil (also known as the stator or just vanes) where it is retarded converting the kinetic energy due to velocity increase into static pressure. f) Reasons for twisting axial flow compressor
fuel, the earlier engines worked so smoothly on earth-nut or pea-nut oil that only a few people were aware of it. These engines were then worked on vegetable oil without making any alterations. Discussion Biodiesel fuel is believed by many to be the fuel of the future. As a clean burning alternative, the bio fuel comes from 100% renewable resources. Biodiesel can be used in pure form or may be blended with petroleum diesel at any concentration in most injection
distinguish between the two. This form of energy production has many advantages to its use, but also some disadvantages that might drive away potential new users. It is important to differentiate between solar thermal and solar panel technology because it can be very easy to confuse the two. Solar thermal electric energy generation uses light from the sun to create heat. The heat that is generated from the sun is used to run a heat engine, which turns a generator to make electricity (Novosel and Jurij
United States. The advantages of many of these fuels are being recognized with the rising cost of crude oil. Other countries around the world have been using alternative fuels for years, such as in Brazil where they have good feedstock for some fuels such as ethanol. Biofuels are also becoming cost effective with higher crude oil prices and can be completely renewable. The best thing about many of these alternative fuels is they can be readily used in standard internal combustion engines with little or
he explanation behind two engines is in the qualities and shortcomings of both sorts. The electric engines utilize no vitality amid unmoving, they kill. At low speeds, electric utilize not as much as gas engines. Gas engines improve at high speeds and can convey more power for a given engine weight. That implies amid surge hour unpredictable driving, the electric engine works incredible and, as an additional advantage, does not create any fumes in this way decreasing exhaust cloud levels. At higher
regards to qualifications for hybrid engines which means this division of Mazda will have to ensure high quality and results. Supply Chain This new division has created a new engine that is more environmentally sound and economical than any other car manufacturer at this time. Because Mazda not only wants to ensure low prices on their vehicles, this new engine’s production line will be very effective and efficient. Mazda understands that the supply chain of this engine has to have very little to no flaws
The Lead up to current Business-level Strategy Since the inception of the company, General Electric put great emphasis on innovation. Creating the first Industrial Research Laboratory of its kind in 1900, the company introduces copious amount of new products to the world ever since. This Lab allowed the company to generate new products that would facilitate the creation of future profitable ideas. The dedicated team of scientists and engineers could create new products and improve existing products
The diesel (internal combustion) engine has been a major source of power for transportation vehicles and industrial uses. The Australian railways have utilised diesel engines for regional and freight purposes since the early 1950 's. Despite the extensive history of the diesel engine, the efficiency of the modern internal combustion process ranges between 35% - 42%.[1] The losses in energy arise from heat losses and mechanical losses as illustrated in Fig 1. Figure 1. Schematic of conventional
Document 1, there is a cartoon of the Steam Engine Train (SET). With the steam Engine, there were advantages of shipping products, it was faster due to the invention of the steam engine, and, there was more storage space for shipping. The first commercial Steam Engine appeared in 1698, later in 1712 Thomas Newcomen improved it…. Thomas “improvement” had troubles too so later on James Watt came in and improved the Steam Engine. Coal was used to make the Steam Engine to start up and also make iron. Abraham
As one of the greatest industry in the world , maritime industry especially shipping industry try to compete with other related industries . In-line with the increase of demand in shipping and supported by the development of technology, shipping industry try to impove its performance in every single aspect such as design of the ship will be much bigger to match it with the large amount of goods, and high- technology application . Speaking about the technology application, one of the interesting
