Thermal Power Plant : Principle, Parts, Working, Advantages and Disadvantages

Basic Introduction or Principle: We all are aware with the term "Generator". A device which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy is known as generator. This generator makes rotate with the help of some kind of external energy. When this energy extract from the energy of steam, the plant is known as steam power plant.  A simple steam plant works on Rankine cycle. In the first step, water is feed into a boiler at a very high pressure by BFP (boiler feed pump). This high pressurized water is heated into a  boiler   which converts it into high pressurized super heated steam. This high energized steam passes through steam  turbine  (a mechanical device which converts flow energy of fluid into mechanical energy) and rotate it. Owing to extract full energy of steam, three stage turbines is used which is known as LPT (Low pressure turbine), IPT (intermediate pressure turbine) and HPT (High pressure turbine). The turbine shaft is connected to the generator rot

Top 5 Fastest Bikes in The World 2014

With back-to-back Superbike Championships in 2011 and 2012 and packed with MotoGP technology, the 2014 Yamaha YZFR1 is the most advanced Open Class sportbike on the planet. That's because it's the world's first production motorcycle with a crossplane crankshaft. Resulting in incredibly smooth power delivery and outrageous torque from a rush like never before. From the track to the street, the 2014 R1 truly is the number one.


4. Honda CBR1100XX Blackbird:

Overview:
Engine                        : 1137cc liquid-cooled inline four-cylinder
Max. Power                  : 152 bhp at 10000 rpm 
Max. Torque                 : 119 Nm at 7250 rpm
Top Speed : 310km/h

Honda first introduced the CBR 1100XX Super Blackbird in late 1996 as a 1997 model in the original colors: Black, Titanium and Red. Being a great product, it soon became a popular motorbike for its combination of smooth powerful engine, good handling, comfort, reliability and quality. You will notice that the biggest CBR hasn’t suffered important improvements through the years as it was bulletproof built from the beginning. 


3. MTT Turbine Superbike Y2K:

Overview:
Engine                         : Rolls Royce Allison 250 series gas turbine 
Max. Power                   : 320 bhp (239 kW) at 52,000 rpm
Max. Torque                  : 576.2 Nm at 2000 rpm
Top Speed : 365 km/h

Top 5 Fastest Bikes in The World 2014

The bike that was named Y2K and produced by Louisiana firm Marine Turbine Technologies was almost certainly the most powerful and fastest motorcycle ever with a power output of 320bhp and a top speed of well over 365km/h, to go into series production. Given that Y2K was powered by a gas turbine engine previously used in a helicopter, its performance was hardly surprising.

2. Suzuki Hayabusa:

Overview:
Engine                         : 1340 cc (82 cu in), 4-stroke, four-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine
Max. Power                   : 197 bhp (147 kW) at 6750 rpm 
Top Speed : 397 km/h
Top 5 Fastest Bikes in The World 2014

The Suzuki Hayabusa Limited Edition, quite simply, isn't for everyone. With performance credentials that have established it as the most exciting sportbike on the planet, it's designed for serious sport riders who will settle for nothing less than the best. If that's you, and if you choose to ride the Hayabusa, you'll be rewarded with a riding experience you'll never forget. Its combination of unsurpassed power, crisp handling and superb aerodynamics creates the ultimate sport bike.

1. Dodge Tomahawk:

Overview:
Engine                        : V10, four-stroke engine
Max. Power                  : 500 bhp (370 kW) at 5600 rpm 
Max. Torque                 : 712.00 Nm at 4200 rpm
Top speed : 680 km/h


Top 5 Fastest Bikes in The World 2014

The Dodgeball Tomahawk was a non-street legal concept vehicle introduced by Dodge at the 2003 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Michigan. Dodge's extraordinary claims of a top speed of 420 mph (680 km/h) were derided by experts in land speed records, and the Tomahawk never demonstrated a speed above 100 mph (160 km/h). The engine of 8.3 liter V10 has 500 horsepower and can reach speeds around 680 km / h. The bike is heavy 680 kg and cost $ 555,000

New imaging technique could detect acoustically 'invisible' cracks

The next generation of aircraft could be thinner and lighter thanks to the development of a new imaging technique that could detect damage previously invisible to acoustic imaging systems. The nonlinear acoustic technique developed by researchers from the University of Bristol's Ultrasonics and Non-destructive Testing (NDT) research group is published in the current issue of  Physical Review Letters  together with an accompanying article in  Physics . It has long been understood that acoustic nonlinearity is sensitive to many physical properties including material microstructure and mechanical damage. The lack of effective imaging has, however, held back the use of this important method. Currently engineers are able to produce images of the interior of components using ultrasound, but can only detect large problems such as cracks. This is like detecting only broken bones in a medical environment. Imaging of acoustic nonlinearity is achieved by exploiting differences in

Main Parts of an Internal Combustion Engine

Today we will learn about main parts of an engine. An internal combustion engine is the engine in which combustion (burning of fuel) takes place inside the cylinder of engine. By burning of the fuel high temperature and pressure force generates. This pressure force use to move the vehicle or rotate wheels by use of some mechanism. In an engine many parts work together and achieve the goal of converting chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy. These parts are bolted together and the combination of all these parts is known as engine. Today I am going to tell you about these parts and how they work so you can know the basic of automobile engine. Main Parts of an Internal Combustion Engine: 1. Cylinder block Cylinder is the main body of IC engine. Cylinder is a part in which the intake of fuel, compression of fuel and burning of fuel take place. The main function of cylinder is to guide the piston. It is in direct contact with the products of combustion so it must b

Pedal Operated Hacksaw

Pedal Operated Hacksaw Operating a hacksaw manually is a very tiring and time consuming task. It requires a lot of manual effort and delivers uneven cutting. Operating a electrical hacksaw does deliver good results but consumes a lot of energy. So here we propose a semi automated hacksaw using pedal power. Here we design and fabricate a hacksaw that is run by pedal power and achieves even cutting with very less efforts. Here we use a chain sprocket arrangement to transfer power from pedals to hacksaw. A strong and firm base frame allows for efficient power transfer between the system. We use bearings and mounts to mount and setup the entire system and ensure a smooth circular motion of pedals. Now we attach a hub to the other sprocket. This hub is connected with a connecting rod which moves with the hub in order to produce a lateral motion. We now develop a supporting frame and connect a saw to the other end in order to achieve desired cutting movement of saw. We also attach
