Vibration Analysis of Simple Rotor with Transverse Crack

Sushmita P., Kiran Prasad D., Kishor Kumar K.Ch. · June 2018 · pp. 93-100

To examine the vibration characteristics of cracked rotor, a mathematical model for cracked shaft is developed and solved using matlab and simulink. The results are validated by experimentation and using Ansys. A shaft with disk mounted between two bearings is used. An artificial crack is introduced to detect the vibration characteristics of the rotor. Initially, the signature data was obtained with no crack using spectrum analyzer. Later, crack was introduced with depths ranging from 2 mm to 8 mm with four steps on the rotor of 15 mm diameter. On observing the peak amplitudes of right and left bearings, a difference in the values was observed. This indifference in the magnitude of the peak amplitude is because of the combined effect of coupling and position of the crack. A simplified model is solved using ANSYS and the harmonic analysis was performed for different combinations of crack depths and results were obtained. The results obtained by using the three analysis methods gives almost same peak amplitudes.

Energy Conservation in the Process Industry – Customer’s Perspective

Prof. Suhas C. Mekhe · June 2018 · pp. 111-113

Energy conservation is one of the words one is hearing more and more. Unfortunately, a lot of the places one will hear it will be in advertisements, marketing products or lifestyle habits that may have nothing to do with actual energy conservation. To learn what real energy conservation techniques are, we have to begin to understand the theory of conservation behind them. Energy conservation is not about making limited resources last as long as they can, that would mean that you are doing nothing more than prolong a crisis until you finally run out of energy resources all together. Conservation is the process of reducing demand on a limited supply and enabling that supply to begin to rebuild itself. Many times the best way of doing this is to replace the energy used with an alternate. Energy prices have increased at an alarming rate, and interest in environmental responsibility is at an all-time high. Many organizations are looking for ways to conserve energy, reduce carbon emissions, and save on overall utility costs. While total energy management is very complex, there are some relatively simple strategies that can reduce a company’s energy consumption, lower costs, and advance your conservation goals. This paper deals with the Customer’s (Buyer and / or User of Energy Conservation Systems) perspective to Energy conservation practices.

Amudha L, Nithya T. M, Ramya J, Infant Raj I · June 2018 · pp. 125-128

The number of cores in a computing machine is doubling each generation. As the number of cores on multi-cores increase, all cores must be effectively utilized. So there should be a different approach in programming. One such solution is Parallel Programming or Parallel Computing.Parallel computing is a type of computation in which many calculations or the execution of processes are carried out simultaneously. Large problems can often be divided into smaller ones, which can then be solved at the same time. The main reason for the difficulty in improving the efficiency is due to the conventional step by step programming of the traditional programming languages. Parallel algorithms that run on parallel processors will be a better hope for performance improvement of today’s fast computing devices. Today with the advent of numerous automated machines, and big data, conventional programming languages does not promise effective use of the hardware which in turn reduces the performance. Hence this paper, unveils the parallel programming languages that can be used for intelligent machines like robots, high speed computational devices, data analytics engine, etc.

Over the past 25 years, jet impingement has been explored as a cooling option in microelectronics. Recently, interest has been expressed by the automotive industry in exploring jet impingement for cooling power electronics components. Jet impingement cooling has broad application, such as controlled cooling of metals or non-metals in manufacturing processes, as a result of its easy implementation and high efficiency. Many investigations have dealt with convective heat transfer by submerged jet impingement(gas jets in gases or liquid jets in liquids), but studies of free liquid jets(travelling through gases) are much less common, particularly those presenting theoretical analyses of the heat transfer by liquid jets. The reason may be the complexity of the local phenomena. Heat transfer is a basic thermal process which is part of thousands of natural and manmade processes. The attempts of increasing heat transfer of a device or processes by providing external aid are known as heat transfer enhancement.

Designing of Model Predictive Control System

Nitin Mishra, Dr. Uday Panwar · June 2018 · pp. 182-184

Model predictive control is a widely used method in process control. This paper presents a Novel MPC approach for the LED flood lighting system that handles the excessive heat generates due to LED operation by controlling the speed of fans attached. Apart from chemical, power system and power Electronics fields, first-time MPC system has been used for LED Flood lighting. As MPC requires very high computational speed for controlling the device under control therefore in this paper, FPGA is used as a controller.In order to calculate the performance of the proposed system both hardware (using T&M instruments) and software (simulation software) has been used.

A Review on Low Power Consumption 10T Full Adder Circuit

Rajesh Kumar Tiwari, Anshuj Jain, Dr. Bharti Chaurasiya · June 2018 · pp. 185-188

The major style constraints in adder are space and power dissipation. The ability of power dissipation in MOSFET is directly proportional to the output load capacitance and it's reciprocally proportional to the voltage, semiconductor device gain that in turn depends on the switch frequency, sub threshold outflow and switch time. During this paper, we've got bestowed the literature on developing with of high speed, less space full adder exploitation economical techniques. The improvement of the projected vogue is often done by using the assorted techniques. The parameters speed and space of the projected vogue are often improved by exploitation Carry Look Ahead Techniques. It conjointly reduces the circuit quality. The total adder could be an elementary building block of central method unit of a portable computer that's utilized among the best microprocessors for purpose of maintaining timers. Previously, a lot of economical style has been introduced for the design of inferiority operation; however we have a tendency to tend to own given the eye to the carry look ahead and reversible gate techniques.
