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.

TAPING CORRECTIONS There are two types of corrections depending upon the type of errors in tape due to the different conditions. 1. Systematic Errors : Slope Erroneous tape length Temperature Tension Sag 2. Random Errors : Slope Alignment Marking & Plumbing Temperature Tension & Sag 1. Temperature Correction It is necessary to apply this correction, since the length of a tape is increased as its temperature is raised, and consequently, the measured distance is too small. It is given by the formula, C t = 𝛼 (T m – T o )L Where, C t = the correction for temperature, in m. 𝛼 = the coefficient of thermal expansion. T m = the mean temperature during measurement. T o = the tempe...
Types Of Lines And Its Uses: There are three types of types on the basis of thickness and they are: Visible Lines ↝ It represents features that can be seen in the current view. Hidden Lines ↝ It represents features that cannot be seen in the current view. Center Line ↝ It represents symmetry, path of motion, centers of circles,, axis of asymmetrical parts. Dimension and Extension Lines ↝ It indicates the sizes and location of features on a drawing. Placement Of Dimension Lines: Dimension should be outside the view. Dimension should be applied to one view. Dimension should be placed in a view that shows the distance in its true length. Dimension lines should be placed, in general 10 mm (1/2 in) away from the outlines from the view. Parallel lines should be placed uniformly. Values should be midway (auto centered) between the arrow heads, except when a center-line interferes. Dime...
Lubrication: It is defined as the admittance of oil between two surfaces having relative motion. Why do we need Lubrication? The functions of lubrication are described ahead: Reduce friction between moving parts. Reduce wear and tear of parts. Shock absorbing. To cool the surfaces in contact. Properties of Lubricants: Following are the properties of Lubricants: Viscosity ➸ Internal resistance to flow of liquid. It is the ability of oil to resists internal deformation due to load and mechanical stresses. Viscosity Index ➸ It represents the change in viscosity of oil with temperature. The greater the viscosity index, the smaller the change in viscosity with temperature. Flash Point Temperature ➸ The lowest temperature at which vapor of lubricating oil will ignite when given an ignition source. Fire Point Temperature ➸ It is the minimum temperature at which vapor of fluid will keep burning after the i...
