Design and analysis of hexagonal fin for air cooled engines

Major automobile engine components are subjected to wear and thermal stress due to high temperature during combustion. Fins are used to increase the heat transfer rate of an I.C. Engine. In an internal combustion engine, the chemical energy of the fuel is converted to thermal energy to give a mechanical work as output. There is a large amount of heat is liberated to the combustion of fuel in which only a few amounts of energy is converted into useful work (60%-80% approx.) and the remaining energy is wasted. This heat is first conducted to engine cylinder and dissipated to air through extended surface called fins. In an air-cooled engine, the low rate of heat transfer is the main problem. To avoid this, the engine's fins are modified by changing the geometry of the cooling fins. All materials are showing a linear distribution of temperature alongside the length of fins. Also, the hexagonal shape fins increase the heat flux by converting the fin geometry from a rectangular shape to hexagonal and thus reduce the wear of engine parts and knocking of the engine.

Robust technique to restore and enhance image for edge detection

To recover the degrade image restoration is a need. There are different formats for pixel noise like salt & pepper, Gaussian noise, etc, which cause the image degradation and may become the main reason to miss the pixel regions during capturing, transmissions, processing, etc. So for better processing, these missing pixel must be restored, in this process single pixel, multiple pixel (spatial) models are used for the restoration of the missing or bad pixels. In this paper, the proposed model is designed for the recovery of the pixel by using adaptive methods and the image is enhanced by using an automatic enhancement technique. The proposed model has been analyzed with the improved results in context with the existing models, which shows the robustness of the proposed model.

Burr formation minimization in drilling process using experimental study with statistical analysis

Burrs are generally plastic deformation of the workpiece after machining process. Deburring can reduce burr formation but it is time consuming and increase the production cost. By changing some of the input parameters like Spindle Speed, Feed Rate, Depth of Cut, the formation of burr can be reduced. This research work presents an experimental study on minimizing the formation of burr in machining like drilling. In this thesis, Universal Radial machine has been used to make holes. By changing machining variables like feed, cutting velocity and speed different sizes and the type of the burrs created in aluminum are studied. Taguchi analysis has been done to analyze the predicted minimum burr height. ANOVA has also been done to analyze the maximum contribution of the parameters to form the burr. Signal to Noise(S/N) ratio plots has been shown in this research. Response surface methodology also has been conducted. In the design optimization, the application of RSM is aimed to reduce the cost of the expensive analysis methods (e.g. finite element method or CFD analysis) and their associated numerical noise.

Design of continuous loading vertical chain conveyor

A conveyor system is a common piece of mechanical handling equipment that moves materials from one location to another. The main purpose of this project is to safely lift the load at the rate of 6m/min. This paper consist of, selection, a design of basic mechanical elements. This system is able to overcome the drawbacks of inclined belt conveyor, achieves desired height and occupies less floor space as a material is transformed in vertically upward direction. This Chain Conveyor utilizes a continuous chain arrangement, carrying a series of a single pallet for lifting the load. The chain arrangement is driven by a motor, and the material suspended on the pallets is conveyed to the next floor.

Women safety system using Raspberry Pi

In today’s world, women come across many situations that make them feel unsafe. Women from various walks of life face situations that make them feel threatened in different environments. Sixty six percent of women have reported sexual harassment in the year 2010 in New Delhi. It has also been proven that in urban environments, women are more prone to experience harassment especially in developing countries. In such situations, the aid of a safety device that will inform the victim’s family members or the authorities (in Severe situations) may help women feel safer, confident and reduce the chances of harassment. Though there are a few Smartphone based solutions for the same, it might not be possible for the victim to reach for her phone in some situations without the knowledge of the perpetrator. In this approach, the focuses on a security system that is designed merely to serve the purpose of providing security to women so that they never feel helpless while facing such social challenges. An advanced system can be built that can capture the video of the event as well as send the emergency messages of the victim through GSM to respective mobile numbers. The idea to develop a smart system for women is completely comfortable and also easy to use as compared to existing women security solutions such as infamous mobile apps, bulky belts and the separate garment that are just very abstract and obsolete.
