Electrolux Refrigeration is also known as Domestic Electrolux refrigeration or sometimes known as Three fluid Refrigeration as it uses three fluids for the cooling process which are ammonia, water and hydrogen. Ammonia works as a coolant in this refrigeration system.Water is used as a solvent. Ammonia is dissolved in the water.Hydrogen gas is used to…
Snap gauge is one of the types of go-nogo gauges.It is a gauging tool which means it assesses whether part of the cylindrical or non-cylindrical shape meets its dimensional specification without actually providing a measurement of the actual value of the dimension.The snap gauge is used to measure the outer diameter of the jobs of shapes like…
Dual Cycle which is also known as mixed or limited-pressure cycle, is a thermodynamic model for internal combustion engines that blend the Otto (spark-ignition) and Diesel (compression-ignition) cycles. The other names for Dual Cycle include Seiliger Cycle Or Sabathe Cycle.Dual Cycle was first introduced by an engineer named Gustav Trinkler. In this cycle, part of…
Simple gear train is a gear combination of two or more gears in which only one gear is present in each shaft.Simple gear train can consist of two, three, four or more gears with one gear in each shaft.Every simple gear train has a driver gear and a driven gear. The driver gear is connected…
Casting is a manufacturing method that involves pouring liquid material into a mold and allowing it to solidify. This process is said to have had its origin in 1838 and was used for the first time in the printing industry to manufacture some of its moving parts. The mold, in this case, gets filled with…
The piston pump is a positive displacement pump that is usually used in high-pressure applications. It consists of a piston-cylinder arrangement. The piston is connected to the crank using connecting rod. When the crank rotates 180 degrees, the piston moves from right to left, and thus suction is created inside the cylinder. So the inlet…
Swash Plate Pump is a positive displacement pump that consists of a combination of a piston and cylinder and a swash plate. A Swash Plate is used inside this pump so it is named a swash plate pump. A swash plate is a slanted disc that is present inside this pump.The swash plate is also known…
A fluid coupling is a coupling that uses fluid to transmit power from the driving side to the driving side.Fluid coupling is also known as hydraulic coupling.It is named fluid or hydraulic coupling because fluid is used in this coupling. The fluid used in this type of coupling can be oil or any hydraulic fluid.Fluid coupling…
Pumps are devices that are used to move fluids (liquids and gases) from one point to another using mechanical action. Pumps find applications in agriculture, the oil and gas industry, and various other industries where the transport of fluids is required. The working principle involves the creation of a pressure difference at two points and…
A knuckle joint is a type of joint which connects two cylindrical rods whose axes lies on the same plane and are under a tensile load. It is used to transmit axial tensile force.This joint allows angular movement of the two cylindrical rods in one plane. Knuckle joint is named so as it uses a knuckle pin…
