View Factor Orientation (or View factor or shape factor) plays an important role in radiation heat transfer. View factor is defined as, "fraction of radiation leaving surface 'i' and strike 'j' ". Summation Rule (View Factor) If there is are similar surfaces 'i' and 'j' , then: Blackbody Radiation Exchange Radiation Exchange between Opaque, Diffuse, Gray surfaces in an Enclosure 1. Opaque 2. Surfaces 3. Two surface enclosure Radiation Shield It is used to protect surfaces from radiation act like a reflective surface.

Cotter Joints
A temporary fastener used to connect rigidly two co-axial rods (or bars) which are subjected to axial tensile or compressive forces.
Cotter ↣ A flat wedge shaped piece of rectangular cross-section of uniform thickness and its width is tapered for an easy adjustment.It is made of steel.
Used in connecting piston rod to cross-head of reciprocating steam engine.
Inserted ⊥ to the axis of shaft.
Strength of key < Cotter strength ↣ because of removing material.
We add taper on top of key while we add taper on top, bottom but along width side of cotter.
Types of Cotter Joint
1. Sleeve and Cotter Joints
Simplest of all cotter joints and is used to fasten two round rods/bars.
Rectangular cross-section area, tapered both sides along width.
We add cotter pin ⊥ to the axis of shaft and add sleeve to shaft and then add pin.
It has better strength than Socket and Spigot Cotter joint.
Taper in cotter is 1 in 24.
2. Gib and Cotter Joints
It is used to join two square rods but round rods can be joined with suitable modification.
One end of rod is U-fork shaped and the other is of square end.
Gib ↣ C-shaped added to provide strength to joints (for greater load bearing area and holding force between cotter and rods).
Lug ↣ one side of gib is tapered and the other is straight with 2 rectangular projections which get U-shaped rod and rod together then we add cotter pin.
3. Socket and Spigot Cotter Joint
Used to connect 2 circular rods to carry both tensile and compressive loads.
One end is provided with a socket by enlarging its end.
Spigot ↣ Other rod is inserted into socket.
Design of Socket and Spigot Cotter Joint
Knuckle Joint
Mechanical joint used to connect two rods which are under a tensile load.
One of the rod can be positioned through some angle about the plane containing rods.
Cross-section of Knuckle is circular.
It contains two ends, end of one rod is made into fork (double eye) and the other rod end is made into eye.
Pin is inserted and they are held by means of collar and a taper pin.

Solid Mechanics OR Mechanics of Materials OR Strength of Materials: It is the study of mechanics of body i.e. forces and their effects on deformable solids under different loading conditions. Deformable Body Mechanics: It is the study of non-rigid solid structures which deform under load. Deformation/Distortion ⇾ change of shape and size OR have some relative displacement or rotation of particles. It happens when we apply combined load. Rigid Body Motion ⇾ Translation or rotation of particles but having constant distance between particles. Since deformation occur at particular load. Below this load, every body is considered as rigid body . Types of Load: Point Load ⇾ Load apply on a single point i.e. concentrated load. Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL) ⇾ Load remains uniform throughout an area of element like beam. Varying Distributed Load (VDL) ⇾ Load varies with length with constant rate. Moment ⇾ It measures the tend...
Introduction To Structural OR Concrete Design Beams must have adequate strength against different types of failure which are: Shear more dangerous than Flexural (or Bending) failure because it creates additional tensile stresses. E.g.: Airplane wing (act as cantilever beam ) and made of Nanocomposites, composites, aluminum. Following are the types of failures in Beam: Flexural (or bending) failure Diagonal Tension failure Shear-Tension failure Shear-Compression failure Following are the types of Shear : Longitudinal Shear Transverse Shear Shear Failure Diagonal Tension Failure ↠ Shear failure of reinforced concrete beam (difficult to predict). Only valid for Homogenous beams . When we apply load on beam ↠ Bending as well as Shear stresses are produced. Shear stress have maximum value at Neutral axis N.A. Bending stress have maximum value at Extreme fibers. At maximum bending stress ↠ shear stress = 0 . Assumptions for shear stresses i...
Mechanical Injection System: Used to inject fuel into the combustion chamber. Fuel speed > air speed at delivery point to atomize fuel. Amount of fuel delivered into the air stream going into the engine is controlled by pump which forces the fuel under pressure. A device used to initiate and control the combustion process is called Mechanical Injection System. Functional Requirements of Injection System: Metering of Fuel: Used to control fuel to meet speed and load requirements of the engine. Injection Timing: Have proper injection timing to obtain max. power, fuel economy and proper burning. It is done by Camshaft or Push rod (Rocker Arm) Mechanism . Proper Control of Injection Rate: To get desired heat release pattern during combustion. Proper Atomization of Fuel: Proper making of droplets to make best Air/Fuel mixture. Proper Spray Pattern: Distribution of droplets to ensure rapid mixing of fuel & air. Uniform Distribut...
