Step 1 : The delivery valve is closed and the suction pipe, casing and portion of the delivery pipe up to the delivery valve are completely filled with the liquid so that no air pocket is left. This process is called priming a...
The reciprocating pumps is a positive displacement pump. It operates on the principle of actual displacement or pushing the liquid by a piston or plunger that reciprocates in a closely fitting cylinder. These pumps usually have...
There are two methods of dimensional analysis used. Rayleigh’s method Buckingham π-Theorem Rayleigh’s Method In Rayleigh’s method, the expression is determined for a variable depending upon maximum three or...
Most of the conventional pressure gauges are of a mechanical type. These gauges embody on elastic element which deflects under the action of the applied pressure. This movement mechanically magnified and read with the help of...
Fluid may be defined as a substance which is capable of flowing. It has no definite shape of its own but it confirms the shape of the containing vessel. A small amount of shear force exerted on a fluid will cause it to undergo a...
Consider an open system through in which the working substance flows as a steady rate as shown in figure. The working substance entering the system at (1) and leaving the system at (2). Let, p1 be the pressure of the working...
What is Communication ? Communication is the process of establishing connection (or link) between two points for information exchange. In our day to day life we come across many ways of communicate. For communication to take...
This is a very high pressure supercritical water cooled reactor which operates above the thermodynamic critical point of water to give a thermal efficiency about one third higher than today’s light water reactors. The...
Fig shows a schematic diagram layout of nuclear power plant. In nuclear power plants, the reactor function is similar to the furnace of steam power plant. It contains pressure vessel, fuel rods, moderator, shielding as shown in...
