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 Five Expensive Bikes in the world

We all likes expensive bikes. A bike shows the personality, coolness and living standard of a person. We always like the fastest bike with a great looks. These features make a bike expensive. Today I am going to tell you about top five expensive bikes. I think you like these and want to purchase it.  

Top 5 Expensive bikes in the world:


5. Yamaha Roadstar BMS Chopper:

Price : 500,000 dollars

The motorcycle features a fancy design with an extra long front fork and is propelled by a 102 cubic-inch air-cooled, long-stroke, OHV 48° twin engine. The engine is mated on a five speed transmission and is brought to life by an Electric starting system which features solenoid-activated auto-decompressor for easy starting. The 102 cubic inch unit is linked to a 2-into-2 exhaust system with dual pipes.

4. Dodge Tomahawk V10 Superbike:

Price : 555000 dollars

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 595 km / h. The bike is heavy 680 kg and cost $ 555,000

3. Ultra rare Porcupine:

Price : 750,000 dollars

A rare 1954 AJS E95 “Porcupine” bike is being expected to become the one of the most expensive motorcycle when it goes on sale at the Bonham’s auction at the Pebble Beach Car Week last year. The engine featured horizontal cylinders for optimal cooling and a low center of gravity while leaving room for the blower above the four-speed gearbox.

2. Harley Davidson Cosmic Starship:

Price : 1 million dollars

Harley Davidson Cosmic Starship is the only motorcycle that Armstrong ever painted,Armstrong's art cumulates extreme colors and textures, and you can optically discern the words appearing magically throughout.

1. Ecosse E21 Superbike:

Price : 3.6 million dollars

The ES1 is the world’s lightest, fastest, best-handling superbike. Weighing only 265 lbs, with 50% of the drag as modern superbikes, and over 200 hp, this thing can scoot.

Automated Portable Hammering Machine

Automated Portable Hammering Machine Hammering is the most widely used industrial as well as construction activity. Hammering or screws, metal sheets, parts etc requires a lot of time and effort. So here we propose an automated hammering system that allows for fully automatic hammering process. This allows for accurate, fast and automated hammering wherever and whenever needed using a 12V battery. The person just needs to insert workpeice and start the hammering machine. This machine can be used for automatic hammering work as and when needed. We here use a dc motor in order to move the hammer. The DC motor consists of a pulley attached to it which is connected to a larger pulley for efficient power transfer and to increase torque. This large pulley is connected to a shaft that has a connecting rod attached to it. This rod is used to achieve lateral motion from the spinning shaft. We now connect the other end of hammer to this connecting rod through a mid swinging arrangement in

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

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
