The conventional energy sources are rapidly depleting because of their excessive use in the modern world. And that's why energy or power generation sectors are very much interested in the utilization of renewable energy sources. The conventional energy source includes Natural Gas, Coal, Nuclear Energy, Crude oil etc. The price of these non-renewable fuels is almost touching the sky and getting

What is Condenser  ?  The primary purpose of the condenser is to condense the exhaust steam from the turbine and thus recover the high-quality feedwater for reuse in the cycle. In order for a steam power station to operate an efficient-closed cycle, the condensing plant, cooling water (CW) system, and associated pumps must extract the maximum quantity of heat from the exhaust steam of the

What is hydroelectric power (facts) ?  Let’s start with the hydroelectric power definition: In hydroelectric power plants, the potential energy of water is converted into mechanical energy which runs a generator. Hydraulic power is a naturally available renewable energy source.  Power of a hydroelectric power station is given as:

 What are renewable energy sources ?  Renewable Energy Sources refers to the sources which are not at risk of being finished. They are replaced naturally. At present times it seems that the use of renewable sources are inevitable because the non - renewable energy sources are getting scarce. The non-renewables like coal, crude oil. nuclear sources, natural gas, wood fuels, shale oil are almost

Hello my fellow science lovers and Mechanical Engineers. Today I am gonna solve an example problem of Fluid Mechanics or Fluid Power (Fluidics) using Very Important Moody Diagram. Before you start to look at the problem you can have a look at the following post -  How to Use Moody Diagram  Problem Solving Using Moody Diagram  Problem -   A Hydraulic oil has the kinematic viscosity of 50

Main Components of Nuclear Power Plant The main components of Nuclear Power Plant are – Nuclear fuel Nuclear Fuel is fissionable element or nuclei. They should undergo nuclear fission by nuclear bombardment. They should be able to sustain the nuclear chain reaction. Examples of Nuclear fuels are U233 ,  U235 , Pu239    . The percentage of different Uranium isotopes in the

According to Shell Renewables (a division of one of the worlds largest oil company) , within the year of 2050 half of the worlds energy will come from Renewable sources. Geothermal Energy can be a great source of energy if it is utilized in full potential. Today I'm gonna post a simple schematic diagram of Flash Steam Power plant which runs by Geothermal Energy. Flash Steam Power plant

Centrifugal casting process It is the method of producing castings where molten metal is poured into a  mould rapidly moving around a fixed axis. The molten metal come into contact with this rotating mould under a good amount of pressure because of the centrifugal force. This gives a better filling of mould. The casting grain density is also high.  As a result the porosity is almost zero.

Different Energy Sources This diagram will show you the different types Energy Sources -   Energy Units and Conversions In SI method the unit of energy is Joule (J).  In CGS unit dyne-cm (equals to 10-7)  In British Unit - foot pound force  (ft-lbf)  Other units are British Thermal Unit (BTU)  1 BTU - 1055 Joule . Kilowatt hour (kWh) 1 kWh = 3.6 x 106  J = 3.6 MJ.  Calorie . 1

Here are some more questions about Industrial Engineering and production management. Actually Industrial Engineering are a part of Mechanical Engineering. That's why I'm posting these questions in this blog. Hope these questions will be helpful for any standard interview exam or viva.  I will post some more mechanical engineering questions very soon. More interesting topics of mechanical
