Cavitation is a phenomenon of formation of vapor bubbles of a flowing liquid in a region where the pressure of the liquid becomes equal or less than the vapor pressure. When these vapor bubbles reaches into the region of higher pressure, they collapse and creates high impact pressure. These high impact pressure created by the …
Centrifugal pump is a hydraulic machine which converts mechanical energy into hydraulic energy (i.e. pressure energy) by the use of centrifugal force acting on the fluid. The flow of liquid takes place in radial outward direction which is reverse of the inward radial flow reaction turbine. It is used in different areas where fluid is …

Ignition Distributor is a mechanical device which is used to transfer the high voltage current produced by the secondary coil to the correct spark plugs in correct firing order and in correct amount of time. It has a mechanically-timed ignition. It was the year 1910 in which the first reliable battery operated ignition system was …
What is a Spark Plug? Spark Plug is a device that is used to ignite the air-fuel mixture in the engine cylinder of an internal combustion engine. They are generally used in petrol engines or engine that runs on Natural gas. For the combustion of the fuel, we need a spark to initiate the combustion …

Water Jet Machining (WJM) also called water jet cutting, is a non-traditional machining process in which high-velocity jet of water is used to remove materials from the surface of the workpiece. WJM can be used to cut softer materials like plastic, rubber or wood. In order to cut harder materials like metals or granite, an …
