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.

Projection: The term Projection is defined as: Presentation of an image or an object on a surface. The principles used to graphically represent 3-D objects and structures on 2-D media and it based on two variables: Line of Sight. Plane of Projection. Line of Sight & Plane of Projection: Line of sight is divided into 2 types: Parallel Projection Converging Projection & A plane of projection is an imaginary flat plane upon which the image created by the lines of sight is projected. Orthographic Projection: When the projectors are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the plane of projection. The lines pf sight of the observer create a view on the screen. The screen is referred to as the Plane of Projection (POP). The lines of sight are called Projection lines or projectors. Rules of Orthographic Projection: Edges that are parallel to a plane of projection appear as lines. Edges that are incl...
Gear Forming by Machining Formation of gear through machining consists of following methods: Form Milling by Disc Cutter Form Milling by End Mill Cutter Shaper, Planner and Slotter Broaching 1. Form Milling by Disc Cutter It is defined as, " Tooth is cut one by one by plunging the rotating cutter into the blank " . Each gear needs a separate cutter. 8 - 10 standard cutters are available for producing 12 - 120 teeth gears. Used for big spur gears of large pitch. 2. Form Milling by End Mill Cutter It includes the cutting of tooth at a time and then indexed for the next tooth space for cutting. For a small volume production of low precision gears. Set of 10 cutters ↠ 12 - 120 teeth gears . Used for teeth of large gears/module. To reduce cost, same cutter is often used for multiple sized gears resulting in profile errors . Characteristics: Use of Hardened stainless steels (HSS) form milling cutters. Use of Ordinary milling machines. Low production rate (need of indexing...
Advance High Strength Steel Conventional low carbon mild steel has simpler ferritic structure (α-iron) and good ductility. Common type of HSS is High Strength Low Alloy (HSLA) ⇥ has yield strength 550 - 690 N/sq.mm . Manganese ⇥ supporter (stabilizer) of ferrite. Conventional HSS : Is single-phase ferritic steel with a potential for some pearlite in C-Mn steel. Lower strain hardening capacity. Advance HSS : primarily steel with a microstructure containing a phase other than ferrite, pearlite, cementite. Higher strain hardening capacity. Case Study of Automobile There are three different zones in a car: Crumple Zone (Front & Back) Middle Compartment Safety Cage Some important points about these zones are: Crumple Zone ⇥ Made with those materials which absorb maximum amount of energy. Safety Cage ⇥ Multiple areas (like cabins, structural elements). Areas of Safety cage are described ahead: Cabins (Blue Areas) ⇥ Should have high streng...
