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.

Crystalline Solids and it's Structures
Crystalline Solids are defined as, "atoms arranged in periodic manner over long atomic distances in 3D patterns".
It deals with the unit cell (smallest part of structure).
If no 3D pattern ⇔ non-crystalline or amorphous solids.
Single Crystal ⇔ all unit cells interlock in the same way in the same orientation.
Polycrystalline Material ⇔ collection of small crystals (or grains) having random crystallographic orientation.
There are two types of unit cells, namely
Hard-Sphere unit cell
Reduced-Sphere unit cell
Types of Crystal Structures
Following are the types of crystal structures:
1. Face-Centered Cubic (FCC) Crystal Structure
It is defined as, "Unit cell of cubic geometry in which atoms are located at each of corners and centers of all cubic faces".
Each corner atom is shared among 8 unit cells.
Face-centered atom shared with 2 unit cells.
2. Body-Centered Cubic (BCC) Crystal Structure
It is defined as, "Cubic unit cell with atoms located at all eight corners and single atom at cubic center".
Center and corner atoms touch one another along cube diagonals.
Coordination number of BCC is 8.
3. Hexagonal Close-Packed (HCP) Crystal Structure
It is defined as, "Unit cell having cubic structure and have top and bottom faces consist of 6 atoms that forms regular hexagon and surround a single atom in the center".
Three additional atoms ⇔ provided to a plane between top and bottom face.
Coordination number is 12.
Atomic Packing factor is 0.74.
Stacking Sequence
It is defined as, "conversion of 2D layers to 3D structures to minimize empty spaces".
Important Terms
Point Coordinates ↔ are lattice parameters. It can be used to define which plane is more denser.
Crystallographic Directions ↔ Line between two points.
Crystallographic Planes ↔ Set of equally spaced planes that may be supposed to pass through the center of atoms in a crystal.
Linear Atomic Density ↔ It is the ratio between number of atoms and unit length of direction vector.
Theoretical Density ↔ Crystal structure of metallic solid permits computation of its theoretical density through the relationship.

Rankine Cycle Rankine cycle is an ideal cycle for Vapour Power Cycles and is normally used for Electricity Generation. The Rankine cycle consist of following steps: 1 ↝ 2 : Isentropic Compression in Pump. 2 ↝ 3 : Constant Pressure Heat Addition in Boiler. 3 ↝ 4 : IsentropicExpansion in Turbine. 4 ↝ 1 : Constant Pressure Heat Rejection in Condenser. Energy Balance: Since, all the devices which Rankine Cycle posses are steady flow devices, so the energy balance for Rankine cycle is: 》For Pump ( q = 0 ): 》For Boiler ( w = 0 ): 》For Turbine ( q = 0 ): 》For condenser ( w = 0 ): The thermal efficiency of Rankine Cycle is: How can we Increase the Efficiency of A Rankine Cycle: The efficiency of a Rankine cycle can be increased: Increasing the avg. temperate at which heat is added Decreasing the avg. Temperature at which heat is rejected. The above two objectives can be achieved by following three met...
Welded Joints A permanent joint which is obtained by the friction of edges of two parts to be joined, with or without the application of pressure and a filler material. Used in fabrication as an alternative method for casting and forging . Used as a repair medium . If filler material is used ↠ Strength of Joint > Base metal strength . If filler not used ↠ Joint strength < Base metal strength . Grinding Finish ↠ Welding at top and bottom off the plate. Machining Finish ↠ Welding at bottom surface after welding machining operation. Want to learn more about welded joint, click here . Designing of Butt Joint Design of Lap Joint or Fillet Joint Lap or Fillet joint is " formed by the overlapping of plates and then welding the edges of plates " . There are two types of fillet joints: Single and Double Transverse Fillet Joints ↣ are designed for tensile loading. Parallel Fillet Joints ↣ are designe...
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...
