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.

Boiler Hydro Test
Boiler hydro test is used to ensure all the welding joints, pipe bents and all headers are water leak proof.
It is done at pressure of 1.5 times of design pressure.
E.g.: If design pressure of boiler is 50 bar, then the hydraulic test pressure will be 75 bar.
Pre-Checklist Hydro Test
Following are the pre-checklist for the hydro test of Boiler:
All erection work should be completed.
Confirm that no foreign material left in the boiler.
Confirm the drum manhole is closed with proper gasket.
Confirm all the drain system ready for operation.
All safety valve should be gagged.
The range of the pressure should be 2 times of the maximum test pressure but not less than test pressure.
The pressure gage should be pre-calibrated before test.
The test pump should have capacity of more than test pressure.
Minimum quantity of demineralized water should be available equivalent to the boiler capacity.
Ensure condensate and Feedwater chemistry parameters to strictly adhere to the required standard.
PH value should be in range of 8 - 9.
The water temperature should not less than 21.1 ℃.
Isolate all pressure and temperature gages except some pressure gages for hydraulic pressure measurements.
Start the boiler filling with the filling pump through the drain header (or filling time).
Close all vents sequentially after water coming from the vents.
Start the hydro test pump ensure all vents closed and rise pressure gradually to the design pressure and then the pressure to be raised up to the test pressure. E.g.: Design pressure = 200 bar, Test pressure = 300 bar).
Hold the pressure raising at 50 bar and 100 bar to check any valve passing and inspect leakage in pressure parts.
Once the pressure reached to the test pressure stop pressurizing and observe pressure drop if the pressure drop is very less then the test is successful.
If any defect is found, type of defect should be solved.
If the pressure is holding better then the pressurizes at 50 bar by opening top vents.
After this, checking team is ready is to inspect inside boiler physically.
After safety test, documents to be prepared and signed with the concerned authorities.
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...
Gear Generation by Machining Tooth profile is provided by much simpler form cutting tool through hobbing, gear shaping. It involves the following methods: Gear Hobbing Gear Shaping 1. Gear Hobbing It is defined as, " a machining process in which gear teeth are progressively generated by a series of cuts with a helical cutting tool " . Most accurate machining process. Used for gears production because it has excellent surface finish. Continuous Indexing Process ↠ in which both cutting tool and workpiece rotate in constant relationship while hob is being fed into work. Feed Directions The direction of feed during hobbing operation depends upon the type of gear to be cut. Following are the types of feed directions: Axial Feeding ↠ cutting spur and helical gears (Hob axis is parallel to Blank axis). Radial Feeding ↠ for bevel gears (Hob axis is perpendicular to Blank axis). Tangential Feeding ↠ for worm, straight, spiral...
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...
