Enhancement of Heat Transfer Analysis and Optimization of Engine Fins of Varying Geometry

The Engine cylinder is one of the major automobile components, which is subjected to high temperature variations and thermal stresses. In order to cool the cylinder, fins are provided on the cylinder to increase the rate of heat transfer. By doing thermal analysis on the engine cylinder fins, it is helpful to know the heat dissipation inside the cylinder. The principle implemented in this project is to increase the heat dissipation rate by using the invisible working fluid, nothing but air. As know, by increasing the surface area we can increase the heat dissipation rate, so designing such a large complex engine is very difficult. 

The main purpose of using these cooling fins is to cool the engine cylinder by air. The main aim of the project is to analyse the thermal properties by varying geometry, material, distance between the fins and thickness of cylinder fins. Parametric models of cylinder with fins have been developed to predict the transient thermal behaviour. The models are created by varying the geometry circular and also by varying thickness of the fins for both geometries. 

The 3D modelling software used is Pro/Engineer. Thermal analysis is done on the cylinder fins to determine variation temperature distribution over time. The analysis is done using ANSYS. Thermal analysis determines temperatures and other thermal quantities. In this thesis, using materials cast iron, Copper and Aluminium alloy 6082 are also for cylinder fin body. Thermal analysis is done using all the three materials by changing geometries, distance between the fins and thickness of the fins for the actual model of the cylinder fin body.

Performance and Emission Characteristics of Pyrolysed Fuel of Tyre Blended with Diesel in Diesel Engine

The waste management of scrap tyre causes impact on environment due to its non-degradable property. Therefore the recycling of tyre scrap is to be considered for improving the energy conversion from solid waste management. The objective of this project is to investigate the performance and emission characteristics of diesel blended with Tyre Prolysis Oil(TPO) in direct injection(DI) diesel engine. The tyre oil obtained at 713 K through pyrolysis process of waste tyre. The synthesized oil is then processed by desulphurization to reduce the sulphur content and transesterification for blending it with diesel. 

The various blends of composition 10%TPO and 90% diesel, 20%TPO and 80% diesel is prepared. Through these blends the improvement of performance and emission characteristics such as NOX, CO2, HC were identified and compared with conventional diesel fuel.

Safety Challenge in High Rise Building

According to the International Building Code and the Building Construction and Safety Code, high-rise buildings are buildings of 75 feet or greater in height measured from the lowest level of fire department vehicle access to the floor of the highest occupiable story. high-rise buildings increase in number every year and the most common high-rise buildings are the commercial ones, but recently investors have turned part of their attention to residential high-rise buildings which is also on the increase and for that matter the focus of this study. 

The aim of this paper is to evaluate the impact of high rise living upon residents '˜satisfaction. My study specifically attempts to determine the important benefits of living in high rise buildings, to determine the critical challenges faced by residents of high rise buildings, to determine the level of satisfaction of occupants of high rise buildings and to make recommendations to improve on present and future high building schemes.

In achieving the objectives of this paper, the survey design was chosen. The target population involved all occupants of residential high-rise building with a convenient sample of 65 respondents selected randomly to participate. The structured questionnaire was used to collect views from respondents and the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences was used to analyze the data. The study found that despite the challenges occupants faced with high living, occupants were generally satisfied and also enjoyed the benefits of privacy and luxury living.

The study however, ended with some recommendations. Accident cases from machines/tools always being a major percentage but deaths are mainly by falling and electric shocks. In most cases, the control of safety management at sites is not strictly, frequently slacken while the owner and contractors only focusing on completion schedule and profits; insufficient interest to safety for people on sites. Major part is from the lack of understandings/perception on safety of the workers themselves. Everyone should aware on the important of safety, everyone should aware about the preciousness of human being and many losses comes from the accidents.

An Overview on Latest Trend of Face Milling Operation

Milling is one of the widely used methods to remove material from the surface of a job. It employs a milling tool which has multiple number of cutting points and is rotated over the work so as to remove the material. Face Milling, on the other hand, is one of the types of milling process in which the surface from which the material has to be removed is placed perpendicular to the cutter axis.

 Thus, it is very important to know about the life of the tool as it determines the surface finish of the work. Longer the tool life better is the overall output. Therefore, by selecting different parameters such as process parameter, geometry parameter and machining parameter properly, the life of the tool can be improved.

Framework for Productivity of Precast Concrete Elements Using Multivariable Linear Regression Technique

A statistical tool that allows us to analyse how multiple independent variables are related to a dependent variable is known as multi variable linear regression technique. The examination of these relationships leads to the formation of networks of variables that provide the basis for the development of theories about a phenomenon. For the productivity estimation, there can be so many factors that influence the productivity of Precast element .

Precast concrete products are generally used to shorten project duration and provide higher quality and more sustainable construction projects. There are many factors affecting productivity in precast concrete construction sites are availability of experience labour, availability of tools and equipment, frequency of inspection, payment delay, healthy management, health status, quality of framework, maintenance. This study contributes to the construction management knowledge by providing simple but effective models to increase productivity precast elements.

Modifications for Conversion of Conventional Four Stroke Engine to a Six Stroke Engine

Considering the climate change and the shortage of non-renewable energy resources, the interests in the waste heat recovery from internal combustion engines is one of the opportunities for economizing of energy consumption. In an internal combustion engine, a great amount of fuel energy is wasted in the form of heat due to thermal limitations. Roughly one-third of fuel energy is converted to mechanical power and the rest is released to the ambience in the form of heat. To save the non-renewable energy resources, the interest in waste heat recovery has been growing. 

A six-stroke internal combustion engine will increase the fuel efficiency and reduce the heat dissipation of the engine. There are additional two strokes, namely steam power and steam exhaust strokes in six-stroke engine. Some of the basic modifications are done in the four stroke engine to convert six-stroke engine. 

There are crank shaft modification, cam shaft modification and an injector & ECU which must be required for water injection once per cycle. Major modifications of conventional internal combustion engine must be done. In this paper the modifications of the conventional four stroke internal combustion engine are illustrated to convert it into six stroke engine.

Plastic Wastes as Partial Replacement of Conventional Natural Aggregates

Concrete is the most widely used construction material in today's world. It is very difficult to point out another material of construction as versatile as concrete. It is a material of choice where strength, durability, permanence, impermeability, fire resistance and abrasion resistance are required. It is so closely associated now with every human activity that it touches every human being in day today living. The basic materials required for producing concrete include cement, fine aggregate (sand), coarse aggregate (broken stone or boulders) and water. 

Sand and coarse aggregate required for making concrete are obtained from earth's crust, mainly from river basins. The extraction of aggregates from rivers has led to deterioration of river basins, large scale soil erosions, depletion of water table, decrease in sediment supply and has also led to increase in pollution and changes in pH level. Concrete being a crucial building material is utilized all over the world in billions of tones annually and the consumption is increasing at a faster rate with every passing year. 

The requirement of aggregates is also increasing with increase in the production of concrete. This large-scale extraction of aggregates will ultimately lead to irreparable damages to the earth's natural resources. So, we need to search for new construction materials. A no. of innovative ideas has been put forward by many researchers suggesting the potential replacements of conventional concrete constituents, particularly coarse and fine aggregates. Plastic wastes in the form of powder as well as solid pieces have also been suggested as potential replacements of conventional sand and stone aggregate.

Use of plastic wastes will not only help in reducing the adverse effects if plastic pollution but will also help in producing economical and light weight concrete. In my experimental work, I am going to prepare concrete by replacing certain percentage of fine and coarse aggregate by plastic waste powder and solid plastic waste pieces respectively and find its effects on physical properties as well as the decrease in pollution due plastic wastes and economic characteristics of concrete.
