Heat recovery analysis of boiler furnace using refractory materials

Now a day failure of refractory material in boiler furnace which is applied for different sites and different applications is the major problem has been faced by boiler manufacturing industries and they are trying to solve this. Different reasons for failure can be inappropriate transportation problem and loose application of refractory, excessive temperature developed in the shell, sigma phase embrittlement, failure of anchors, improper storage of material etc. The materials and its properties used for refractory are studied here with its different types. This report is related to the thermal analysis of refractory which is 305 mm thick and temperature distribution at the certain distance by using ANSYS software.3D Model is drawn in solid works and then imported to ANSYS for next analysis. By applying thermal conditions we get the results. This project is sponsored by Thermax where they want to get temperature distribution and the surface temperature of ceramic paper which is on an outer side of refractory facing to the environment.

Criteria to consider for a successful performance testing tool selection

To inform our audience about the criteria for a successful performance testing tool selection for testing performance on any software stack. The right test tool enables the productivity, optimization, and scale required. It provides the opportunity to find best test tool and evaluate its services faster, and establish successful implementation using it.

An experimental study to assess the effectiveness of planned teaching programme on knowledge regarding weaning diet among mothers of under five in the selected village of district Gurdaspur

Weaning is a systematic process of introduction of suitable food at the right time, in addition to mothers’ milk, in order to provide needed nutrients to the baby. If the baby is to maintain the expected rate of growth and remain healthy and well nourished, supplementary feeding has to be resorted to round about the 6th month of life. The present study aimed to assess the knowledge of mothers of under-five regarding weaning diet, the effectiveness of planned teaching programme regarding weaning and to find out the association between knowledge with selected demographic variables. The findings of the study revealed that the planned teaching programme was effective in increasing the knowledge level of mothers of under five. There was the significant association between education and monthly income of the family. There was no significant association among age, religion, occupation, living status, type of family, the frequency of meals, and source of information

Bus recognition for the visually impaired person

This paper depicts a transport acknowledgment framework which points to the simplicity of voyaging and development of visually impaired individuals with the guide of sensor organize. For them to travel from one place to another place is a difficult task, so they need the special requirement to travel. The blind person gives the input about his destination using android app. The latitude and longitude of the present location of the blind person will be noted in the microcontroller of a blind unit with the help of GPS antenna. The stored information in the microcontroller of the blind unit is transmitted to bus unit through Zigbee system. Sign made in the transport that visually impaired individuals display in the station. Voice model and APR 9600 audio playback systems are used to update and inform the blind person about the bus arriving and reaching destinations. Audio output is generated by the voice synthesizer. The expected outcome of the project is to obtain an easy navigation system for blind people

Comparative study of near dry and dry EDM process

The electric discharge machining (EDM) is an unconventional machining process. It is extensively used to generate complex profiles on electrically conductive materials having high-temperature resistance and high strength. Due to its wide applicability in manufacturing industries, EDM has become the most popular machining process after conventional machining processes such as turning, milling and drilling, etc. Despite several advantages, EDM process suffers from some limitations such as low material removal rate (MRR), high tool wear rate (TWR) and poor surface integrity in some cases. In past, several attempts have been made to overcome these limitations by augmenting EDM with techniques such as electrode rotation, ultrasonic vibrations and suspensions of powders into the dielectric fluid. Although these techniques are excellent from a research perspective, in practice, are applicable only for fewer applications. Another limitation in EDM process is its possible environmental pollution causing characteristic. During EDM process, material removal is a consequent of thermal energy produced by series of discrete electrical sparks occurring between a tool and work electrodes which are immersed in a dielectric medium mostly hydrocarbon oils. These oils produce serious toxic fumes causing the health hazard to the machine operator and environmental pollution. To overcome these limitations of EDM process, dry and near-dry variants of EDM were introduced. Dry EDM process utilizes a pressurized gaseous medium as a dielectric whereas, near-dry EDM process uses a combination of liquid and gas as a dielectric medium and are environmentally friendly. Near-dry electric discharge machining (EDM) and dry EDM are the process variants of the EDM process. This project reveals comparative study and optimum method between near-dry and dry EDM process to achieve the high material removal rate (MRR) and low tool wear rate (TWR).Two-phase dielectric (liquid and air) was utilized in near-dry EDM while only air was used in dry EDM. L27 orthogonal array was used to determine the effect of the pulse current, voltage, pulse on time, pulse off time and pressure on MRR and TWR in near-dry and dry EDM.

Survey on techno level obstacle sensing using ultrasonic based services

Along with a fast-growing economy of a developing country as far as India is concerned, there has been reported an emerging number of harassment and criminal offenses against disabled women. In many of the cases, the suspects are quite freely escaped due to lack of communication links in time. Our goal is to design an intelligent device which can alert the authorities when any harassment is happening. Our system requires minimum power consumption and least human efforts. Initially, it sends a signal to the nearest traffic control or police station intimating the state of crime along with its location. The processor chosen to be is the Arduino UNO, and the communication to the police control is done using GPS and GSM technology.
