BOW The bow is the forward part of the hull of a ship or boat‚ the point that is most forward when the vessel is underway. Both of the adjectives fore and forward mean towards the bow. The other end of the boat is the stern. The bow is designed to reduce the resistance of the hull cutting through water and should be tall enough to prevent water from easily washing over the top of it. On slower ships like tankers‚ a fuller bow shape is used to maximise the volume of the ship for a given length.

MECHANICAL SEALS FOR PUMPS S. Raghavachari Consultant Chennai Abstract Mechanical seals are pieces of engineering marvel. Process industries could meet today’s stringent environmental pollution regulations through the effective sealing of even the most difficult fluids. This paper describes different kinds of seals‚ their design‚ properties and functioning. Effect of various factors like seal balance‚ face pressure‚ temperature and lubrication on performance of seal and probable causes

ONTARIO PUMP COMPANY Ontario Pump Company‚ a small manufacturing company in Toronto‚ manufactures three types of pumps used in a variety of machinery. For many years the company has been profitable and has operated at capacity. However‚ in the last two years‚ prices on all pumps were reduced and selling expenses increased to meet competition and keep the plant operating at capacity. Second-quarter results for the current year‚ which follows‚ typify recent experience. ONTARIO PUMP COMPANY

pressure head of a single pump and of two identical pumps. In this experiment‚ centrifugal pumps have been used to determine the flow rates and the pressure head. This experiment is conducted in series and parallel to identify the pressure different in both pumps. Centrifugal pump is known as one of the most widely used pumps for transferring liquids. It’s also known as a device to transfer mechanical energy from a prime mover into fluid energy to produce the flow of liquids. The pump is connected in 2 ways;

hard working and studying. Therefore‚ I spent one day with my family to have a trip to Bana Hill and it has left many deep impression for me. After this trip‚ I Ba Na - Chua Mount Tourist Area is located in Hoa Vang District‚ 30km from the centre of Danang City so it took me about 1 hour to arrive at Dream Creek Station of Ba Na hills by car. Then‚ we bought tickets to ride by cable car which is the longest cable car in the world. A modern system of cable cars helps us get a bird’s-eye view‚ very

HOW TO READ A CASE Read the case through one time without making any notes Read the case a second time. Prepare the case brief Briefing a case involves taking the published opinion and breaking it down in your words as to the facts‚ issues‚ holdings‚ reasoning‚ decisions‚ and references. A case brief usually refers to a summary of a published case opinion. When you prepare a case brief‚ keep in mind that one of your greatest obstacles will be to summarize highly technical or poorly written

Reliability Issues – Centrifugal Slurry Pumps Introduction Pumps were probably the first machine ever developed‚ and are now the second most common machine in use around the world‚ out-numbered only by the electric motor. The very earliest type of pump is now known as a water wheel‚ Persian wheel or “noria”‚ consisting of a wheel of buckets that rotates to pick up water from a stream and dump it into a trough. Another early pump was the “Archimedean screw”‚ similar to the modern screw conveyor
