Principles of Similitude Applied to Engine Design




Similitude Applied to Engine Design

For a new design the number, and, therefore, the size, of
cylinders to be used for a given power output is an extremely important
decision
In practice, the greatest differences in cylinder design are
caused by the differing requirements of various types of service.
Within each service category, however, a surprising degree
of similitude in cylinder design

Low-Cost High-Speed Photography - Part 1

Find this and other photos HERE. Project Features Produces white light flashes for high-speed photography and multiple exposures High flexibility / reconfigurability (menu controlled) Low cost (no flash unit needed, mostly cheap parts) Simple hardware No recharging time as for conventional flash lights Introduction Some of the ideas I have take years until I actually put them into practice

Electrical Contactors AC1, AC2, AC3, AC4

Image
Electrical Contactors Utilization Categories:- Electrical Contactors are categorized according to the current making and breaking values for contactors. This will depend on the following: The type of load to be controlled (Inductive load, Lighting load, Motor load, Resistive load, Capacitive load) The operating cycle conditions. For any applications there are different contactors available depending upon load application which every electrical engineer you must know before designing any systems.  You may have often seen the ratings described on contactor name plate depicting various parameters. One of most important to be considered are as described in this article.  AC1 - These type of contactors are used for Non-inductive or slightly inductive loads they are used for Heaters which are resistive loads. AC2 - These type of contactors are used in Starting of slip-ring motors AC3 – They are particularly used for Starting of squirrel-cage motors and sw...
