Statics deals with forces in terms of their distribution and effect on a body at absolute or relative rest.
Dynamicsdeals with the studyofbodiesin motion. Dynamics is further dividedinto kinematics and kinetics. Kinematics is concerned
with the bodies in motion without taking into account the forceswhich are responsible for the motion.
kinematics deals with the bodies in motion and its causes.
Force System: A force system may be coplanar/non-coplanar.
In a coplanar force system, all the forces act in the same plane.
In a non-coplanar force system, all the forces act in different planar.

Methods of reducing friction :
There are many ways to reduce friction some of them are given
as follows:
1. Surfaces ofthe mating parts or contacting surfaces should
be smooth
2. Lubrication is also implemented for reducing friction by
making surfaces smooth
3. Streamlined shapes should be used because these shapes
offers least resistance against air flowor water flow.
4. If the forces are reduced on contacting surfaces, the value
of friction is reduced
5. Lesser contact between the mating surfaces also reduces
the friction.
Cone

Cone of friction : It is defined as the right circular cone
with vertex at point of contact of two surfaces and axis
in the direction of normal reactions.
Inclined plane
with horizontal
w=mg
From fig : tan <I> = : = Il =><I> = tan-1(FIR)
Angle of repose (<X) : When a body rests on an inclined
plane, the angle by which the body is at the verge (just)
to start moving in terms as angle of repose.
by the resultant of normal reaction with the limiting force
of friction with the normal reaction.
21RF I
w=mg
From the fig : R = w= mg
P=F
If, P is less than F, the body will not move.
But, if P is increased after a stages achieved by limiting
force of friction, the body will start moving.
Co-efficient of friction (J..t) : It is defined as the ratio of
limiting force of friction (F) to the normal reaction (R)
between two rigid bodies.

Some conceptor/terms of friction:
Friction: Friction may be defined as the resistive force acting
at the surface of contact between two bodies that resist motion
of one body relative to another.
=> Based on the nature of two surfaces in contact, friction
in categorised in the following two kinds/types.
(a) Static friction: When two contact surfaces are at
rest, then the force experienced by one surfuce is
termed or static friction.
(b) Dynamic friction : When one of the two contact
bodies starts moving and the other in at rest, the
force experienced by the body in motion is called
dynamic friction.

Action and Reaction: From Newton's third law,for every
action there is a equal and opposite reaction.
d
Moment (M) = F x r
Couple : Two parallel forces equal in magnitude and
opposite in direction and separated by a definite distance are
said to form a couple.

Gravitational law is also known as universal law of gravitation.
According to this law,Every substance or bodyhas an attractive
force with another substance or body and this attractive force is
directly proportional to the product oftheir masses and inversely
proportional to the square of distance between their centers.
This attrative force is directed along the line which joins the
centers of bodies.
Let MJ and M2be the masses of two bodies and 'R' be the
distance between the centers of two bodies. 'F' be the attractive
force or force of attraction between those bodies.
Now, According to law,
F o: MJ X M2
GRAVITATIONAL LAW
where
IF=m~=mal
In=mass of the body
v = velocity of the body
F =Force acting on the body
a = acceleration produced in the body.
3. Newton's third law of motion: This law states that there is
always an equal and opposite reaction to every action.
d(mv) -
--=F
dt
There are three laws of motion known as Newton's laws of
motion.
1. Newton's first law ofmotion: This law statesthat ifa bodyis
in the state ofrest it remains in the state ofrest and ifit is in
motion it remains in the state of motion until the body is
acted upon by some external force.
2. Newton's secondlawofmotion:Itstatesthattherateofchange
ofmomentum is directlyproportional to the impressedforce,
and take place in the samedirection, in which the force acts.
Momentum = mv

Displacement, Speed, Velocity and Acceleration
Displacement: Change of position of a body with respect to a
certain fixed reference point is termed as displacement.
Displacement is a vector quantity.
Speed: Rate of change of displacement with respect to its
surrounding is called as speed of the body. Since the speed of a
bodyis irrespectiveofits direction,thereforeit is a scalarquantity.
Velocity: The rate ofchange ofposition of a bodywith respect to
time is called velocity.Velocityis a vector quantity. In other way
wecan sayvelocityisthe speedofa bodyin a particular direction.
Acceleration: The rate of change of velocity of a body with
respect to time is called acceleration. A negative acceleration is
calledretardation.
Beam is subjected to following set of forces after the beam is
detached from the supports.
(a) Weightofthe beamW acting verticallydownwardsthrough
mass centre of the beam.
(b) Reaction Rt, normal to the beam at its smooth contact with
the corner.
(c) Horizontal applied force P and couple M
(d) Vertical and horizontal reactions (Ravand Rah)extented at
the pin connection at B.
=> Principle of equilibrium/ Equilibrium conditions :
According to the principle of equilibrium, A body, either
in co-pl-anar or concurrent or parallel system, will be in
equilibrium if the algebric sum of all the external forces
is zero and also algebric sum of moments of all the
external forces about any point in their plane is zero. So,
LF = 0, LM = 0
=> Equilibrium equations for non-concurrent forces
LF = 0 LF = 0 LM = 0x ' y ,
=> Equilibrium equations for concurrent forces

The free body diagram (FBD) of the above system can be drawn
as in Fig.
FREE BODY DIAGRAMS
A free body diagram (FBD) is a simplified representation of
particle or rigid bodythat is isolated from it's surroundings, and
all applied forces and reactions on the body are put together in a
diagram. These diagrams are the simplest abstraction of the
external forces and moments acting on a physical object.
Creating a free body diagram involves mentally separating the
system (the portion of the world you are interested in) from its
surroundings(the rest ofthe world) and then drawing a simplified
representation of the system.
All forces acting on a particle, original bodymust be considered
and equally important. Anyforcenot directlyapplied on the body
must be excluded.
Let us consider a system of a beam loaded and supported as
shown in Fig.

(a) Elasticity: It is the property of the material due to which
it regains its original shape after the external load is
removed after applied. Perfectly elastic bodies are those
bodies which returns to their original shape completely.
(b) Plasticity: It is the property ofthe material due to which
it does not regain its original shape after the removed of
external load. Plasticity is the opposite of elasticity of
external load. Plasticity is the opposite of elasticity.
(c) Ductility: It is the property of the material due to which
if can be drawn into thin wires. The length ofdeformation
is very large in a ductile materiaL
(d) Brittleness: material is said to be brittle if the length of
deformation is very little in tension. A brittle material has
lack of ductility. A brittle material tails at a very small
deformation.
(e) Malleability: It is the property of the material due to
which it can be converted into thin sheets in compression.
This property is used in forging, rolling etc.
(f) Toughness: It is the property ofthe material due to which
a maximum amount of energy stored in a material upto
fractors. This property is utilized under the action of shock
or impact loading.
(g) Hardness: It is the property of the material due to which
it resists cutting, scractehing, pinetration or inditation.

Sign Convention
Deflection of beams plays an important role in design of
beams for rigidity criterion.
The expressions of deflections are further used for
determination of natural frequencies of shaft under
transverse vibrations.
For a cantilever beam under any loading condition
deflection is maximum at free end.
In simply supported beam, deflection is maximum at
mid-span (when beam is subjected to symmetric loading
only).

slides over the surface of the other. For example: a
piston along with cylinder.
(b) Higher Pair: In which the links have point or line
contact and motions are partly turing and partly sliding.
For example: ball bearings, can and follower.
2. Based on the type of mechanical constraint (or mechanical
contact)
(a) Self Closed Pair: If the links in the pair have direct
mechanical contact, even without the application of
external force.
(b) Force Closed Pair: If the links in the pair are kept in
contact by the application of external forces.
3. Based on the type of relative motion between the elements
ofthe pair
(a) Sliding Pair: A kinematic pair in which each element
has sliding contact with respect to the other element.
(b) Rolling Pair: In a rolling pair, one element undergoes
rolling motion with respect to the other.
(c) Turning Pair: In a turning pair, one link undergoes
turning motion relative to the other link.
(d) Screw Pair: Itconsists oflinks that have both turning
and sliding motion relative to each other.
(e) Cylindrical Pair: A kinematic pair in which the links
undergo both rotational and translational motion
relative to one another.
(t) Spherical Pair: In a spherical pair, a spherical link turns
inside a fixed link. Ithas three degrees of freedom.
DEFINITION OF KINEMATIC CHAIN
Combination of kinematic pairs joined in such a way that the last
link isjoined to the first link and the relative motion between them
is definite. There are two equations to find out. Whether the
chain is kinematic or not.
l = 2p-4
where l = number oflinks
p = number of pairs
CONSTRAINED MOTIONS
Constrained motion (or relative motion) can be broadly classified
is to three types.
1. Completely Constrained: Constrained motion in which
relative motion between the links of a kinematic pair occurs
in a definite direction by itself irrespective of the external
forces applied. For example a square bar in a square hole
undergoes completely constrained motion.
2. Incompletely Constrained: Constrained motion in which
the relative motion between the links depend on the direction
of external forces acting on them. These motions between a
pair can take place in more than one direction. For example
a shaft inside a circular hole.
3. Partially (or Successfully) Constrained Motion: If the
relative motion between its links occurs in a definite
direction, not by itself, but by some other means, then
kinematic pair is said to be partially or successfully
constrained. For example a piston reciprocating inside a
cylinder in an internal combustion engine.
TYPES OF KINEMA TIC PAIRS
Types ofkinematic Chains:
Usaually, A kinematic chain has a one degree of freedom. The
kinematic chains having number of lower fairs are tour are
considered to be the most important kinematic chains in which
each pair act as a sliding pair or turning pair.
Some of them are given as :
(a) Four bar chain
(b) Single slider crank chain
(c) Double slider crank chain
The classified of kinematic pairs is listed as below:
1. Based on the nature of contact between the pairing elements.
(a) Lower Pair: Links in the pair have surface or area
THEORY OF MACHINES
It is the branch of Engineering Science, which deals with the
study of relative motion between the various parts of machine
along with the forces acting on the parts is known as the Theory
of Machines (TOM).
Kinematic Link: Each resistant body in a machine which moves
relative to another resistant body is called kinematic link or element.
A resistant body is which donot go under deformation while
transmitting the force.
Kinematic Pair: Ifthe relative motion between the two elements
of a machine in contact with each other is completely or
successfully constrained then these elements together is known
as kinematic pair.

Klein's Construction:
It is defined as a graphical method to achieve the magnitudes of
velocity and acceleration oflinks as well as required points on
the links. Klein's construction is drawn on the configuration
diagram. And It does not need to be drawn two or three different
diagrams.
Limitation: It is applicable to slider crank mechanism only.
INSTANTANEOUS CENTRE
A point located in the plane (of motion of a body) which has zero
velocity. The plane motion of all the particles ofthe body may be
considered as pure rotation about the point. Such a point is called
the instantaneous centre ofthe body. Ifthere are three rigid bodies
in relative planar motion and share three instantaneous centre, all
lie on the straight line, called Kennedy's theorem.
Instantaneous axis of rotation: The axis passing through the
instaneous centre of the body at right angles to the plane of
motion is called instantaneous axis of rotation.
Axode: The instantaneous centre changes every moment, its
locus is called centrods, and the surface generated by the
instantaneous axis is called the axode.
Methods to Locate Instantaneous Centre
Locating the instantaneous centre of a body depends on the
situation given. Following are some examples:
(i) The instantaneous centre I lies at a distance Va along the
(J)
perpendicular to the direction of velocity Va at point A on a
rigid body shown in Fig.
IA = Va

A mechanism is obtained by fixing one ofthe links of a kinematic
chain, for example a typewriter. Basically there are two types of a
mechanism.
1. Simple mechanism: A mechanism with four links.
2. Compound mechanism: Mechanism with more than four links.
Inversion of a Mechanism
We can obtain different mechanisms by fixing different links in
a kinematic chain, this method is known as inversion of a
mechanism.
Inversions of mechanisms:
(a) Four bar mechanism
MECHANISM
Fig.
Linkage shown in Fig. 1 is Grashoftype if
s+l<p+q
Grashof's criteria is applied to pinned four bar linkages and states
that the sum ofthe shortest and longest link of a planar four-bar
linkage cannot be greater than the sum of remaining two links if
there is to be continuous relative motion between the links.
GRASHOF'S CRITERIA
GRUBLER'S CRITERION
In a mechanism total no. of degrees of freedom is given by
F = 3(n-l)-2j
where n is no. oflinks and
j = no. ofjoints (simple hinges)
most ofthe mechanism are constrained so F = 1 which produces
1 = 3(n-l)-2j
=> 2j - 3n + 4 = 0 this is called Grubler's criterion. If
there are higher pairs also no. of degrees of freedom is given by
F = 3(n-l)-2j-h
where h = no. of higher pairs. Also known as Kutz Bach
criterion to determine the number of degree of freedom.
This statement says that if the higher pairs are present in the
mechanism like as slider crank mechanism or a mechanism in which
slipping is possible between the wheel and fixed links.
Higher pair: When the two element of a pair have a line or point
contact when relative motion takes place and the motion between
two elements is partly turning and partly sliding. E.g. Cam and
follower, bale and bearing, belt and rope drive etc.
Number of degree of freedom (movability): The number of
independent parameters that define its configuration. The number
of input parameters which must be independently controlled in
order to bring the mechanism into useful engineering purpose.
If L.HS > RH.S. then it is a locked chain
L.HS. = RH.S. then it is a kinematic chain
L.HS. < RH.S. then it is an unconstrained chain

These components of velocity can be determined by calculating
linear accelerations in radial and tangential directions. Figure

where co is the angular velocity with which the body shall
appear to rotate about the instantaneous centre I.

instantaneous centre lies at infinity and each point on the
slider have the same velocity.

VELOCITY AND ACCELERATION OF MECHANISMS
To analyse velocity and acceleration ofa mechanism we proceed
link by link associated in the mechanism. Let us consider two
points P and Q on a rigid link PQ, as shown in Fig. Let point Q of
the link moves in clockwise direction relative to point P. In this
case the relative velocity of point Q with respect to P would be
perpendicular to the line PQ.

Types of Belts
There are three types of belts

Flat belts are easier to use and are subjected to minimum
bending stress. The load carrying capacity of a flat belt
depends on its width.

The frictional torque transmitted by a disc or plate clutch is

BELT DRIVE
The transmission of power from one rotating shaft to another
lying at a considerable distance, is achieved using belts and ropes.
Two parallel shafts may be connected by open belt or by cross
belt. In the open belt system, the rotation of both the pulleys is in
the same direction. If a crossed belt system is used, the rotation
of pulleys will be in the opposite direction. Fig. 11and Fig. shows

GEARS AND GEAR DRIVE
A wheel with teeth on its periphery is known as gear. The gears
are used to transmit power from one shaft to another when the
shafts are at a small distance apart.
Types of Gears
Commonly used gear are as below:
(a) Spur gear:Acylindricalgearwhosetoothtracesare straight
lines parallel to the gear axis. These are used for
where rl and r2are radii of the two pulleys
x = distance between the centres of two pulleys
In a crossed belt drive the length of the belt is given by
(r + r )2
L = 1t (rI + r2)+ I 2 + 2x
x
When the belt passesfromthe slack sideto the tight side a certain
portion of the belt extends and when the belt passes from the
tight to slack side the belt contracts. Due to these changes in
length, there is relative motion (called creep) between the belt
and pulley surfaces. Creep reduces the velocity ofthe belt drive
system like slip do.
Centrifugal Tension
The centrifugal tension (Tc)is given by
T, = mV2
where m = Mass per unit length of the belt
V = Linear velocityofthe belt
The power transmitted can be calculated as below:
The total tension on the tight side = T) + Tc
The total tension on the slack side = T2+ Tc
.. PowerTransmitted= [(TI+Tc)-(T2+Tc)]V
=(TI- T2)V
Which is equaltothevalueofpowertransmitted givenbyeffective
turning force (TI - T2), that is the centrifugal tension has no
effecton the power transmitted.
The maximum power transmitted by the belt is given by the
maximum total tension in the tight side ofthe belt when it isthree
times the centrifugal tension.
T = 3Tc

machinery ofthe clothing. Round belts are made ofleather,

types having ultimate tensile strength between 4.5 to 7 N
per cm width. For heavy duty,two or three piles ofleather
are cemented and pressed one above the other such belts
are called double or triple ply belts.
(b) V-belts: Fig. shows the cross section of the V-belts. V-
belts are available in fivesections designedA, B, C, D, and
E and there are used in order of increasing loads. Section
A is used for light loads only and section E is used for
heavy duty machines. The angle ofV-belt for all sections
is about 40°. In order to increase the power output, several
V-belts may be operated side by side. In multiple V-belt
drive, all the belts should stretch at the same rate so that
the load is equally divided between them. If one of the set
ofbelts break, the entire set should be replaced at the same
time. The groove angle in the pulley forrunning the belt is
between 400to 60°. Due to reduced slipping, V-belts offer
a more positive drive. V-belt drives run quietly at high
speeds and are capable of absorbing high shock.

straight helices, teeth are inclined at an angle to the gear

helical gears are used in automobile gear boxes and in
steam and gas turbines for speed reduction. The
herringbone gears are used in machinery where large power
is transmitted at low speeds.
(c) Bevel gear: The bevel gear wheels conform to the frusta of
cones having a common vertex, tooth traces are straight line
generators of the cone. Bevel gears are used to connect
two shafts whose axis are coplanar but intersecting when
the shafts are at right angles and the wheels equal in size,
the bevel gears are called mitre gears. When the bevel gears
have their teeth inclined to the face of the bevel, they are
known as helical bevel gears.

CAMS TERMINOLOGY
A radial cam with reciprocating roller follower is shown in Fig.
L Base Circle: Smallest circle that can be drawn to the cam
profile.
2. Trace Point: The reference point on the follower which
is used to generate the pitch curve that varies from case to
case. For example, in case of knife edge follower, the knife
edge represents the trace point and the pitch curve
corresponds to the cam profile while in case of roller
follower, the centre of the roller represents the trace point
3. Pressure Angle: The angle between the direction of the
follower motion and a normal to the pitch curve. Keeping
the pressure angle too large will lead to joining of
reciprocating follower.
4. Pitch Point: A point on the pitch pitch curve having the
maximum pressure angle.
A rotating machine element which gives reciprocating or oscillating
motion to another element called follower is known as cam. These
are mainly used for inlet and exhaust values ofl.C. engines, lathes
etc.
Types of Cams
L Radial cam:A cam in which followerreciprocates or oscillates
in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the cam. Radial
cam is further classified as
(a) Reciprocating cam
(b) Tangent cam
(c) Circular cam

GOVERNORS
The function of a governor is to regulate the mean speed of an
engine within mentioned speed limits for varying type of load
condition.
Terms Used in Governors
(a) Height of Governor: Vertical distance from the centre
of the ball to a point where arms intersect on the spindle
axis.
(b) Equilibrium Speed: The speed at which the governor balls,
arms etc. are in complete equilibrium and the sleeve does
not tend to move upwards or downwards.
(c) SleeveLift: Vertical distance with the sleeve travels because
of change in equilibrium speed.
(d) Mean Equilibrium Speed: The speed at the mean position
of the balls or sleeve.
(e) Maximum and Minimum Equilibrium Speeds: The speeds
at the maximum and minimum radius ofrotation of the balls,
without tending to move either way are known as maximum
and minimum equilibrium speeds respectively. IfN 1and N2
are maximum and minimum speeds then

(f) Sensitiveness: A governor is said to be sensitive, if its
change of speed is from no load to full load may be small a
fraction of the mean equilibrium speed as possible and the
corresponding sleeve lift may be as large as possible.
(g) Stability: If for every speed within the working range there
is a configuration of governor balls, then it is said that
governor is stable. For a stable governor, the radius of
governor balls must increase with increase in the equilibrium
speed.
(h) Hunting: Fluctuation in the speed engine continuously
above and below the mean speed is called hunting.
(i) Isochronism: A governor is isochronous provided the
equilibrium speed is constant for all radii of rotation of the
balls upto the working range.
G) Governor Effort: The average force required on the sleeve
to make it rise or come down for a given change in speed.
(k) Power of Governor: The work done at sleeve for a given
percentage change in speed. Mathematically
Power = Mean effort x Lift of sleeve
Types of Governors
Different types of Governors are:
(1) Simple governor-Watt type: The simplest type a centrifugal
governor is known as watt type or watt governor. Height of
the governor is given by

parallel planes, the body is said to be in torsion, and the
stress produced due to torsion is called torsional shear
stress. Let us consider a body of circular cross-section
subjected to torque T, which produces a twist of an angle e
radians as shown in Fig.

STATIC LOADING AND DYNAMIC LOADING
(a) Static loading: Atype ofloading in which the load is applied
slowly or increases from nil to a higher value at a slow pace.
There are no acceleration produced in the static loading.

as well as direction, very frequently, such type ofloading is
called dynamic loading or fluctuating or alternating loads.
STRESS AND STRAIN

opposite external pulls, then the stress developed inside the
body is called tensile stress

Stress Concentration
Irregularity in the stress distribution caused by the abrupt change
in the shape cross section of a machine component is called
stress concentration. It occurs for all kinds of stresses in the
presence of filters, notches, holes, keyways, splines, surface
roughness or scratches etc.
Stress concentration factor: A factor used to associate the
maximum stress at the discontinuities of cross-section to the
nominal stress is called stress concentration factor.

joints, cotter joints, knuckle joints etc.
Bearing Pressure: Bearing pressure is localised compressive
stress at the area of contact between two components which
have relative motion amongst themselves. It is calculated
similarly as we did bearing stress. Let us consider a journal

Fatigue and Indurance Limit
A type of failure of a material caused by the repeated stresses
below the yield point is called fatigue. Failure is caused due to
progressive crack formation which is very fine and is of
microscopic size. Fatigue is basically affected by number of
cyclic loads, relative magnitude of static and fluctuating loads
and the size of component.
Endurance limit: It is the maximum value of completely
reversed bending stress which a polished standard specimen can
withstand without failure, for infinite number of cycles (usually
107 cycles). Following are some empirical relations commonly
used in practice.

Doublerivetellap joint (zig-zigriveting)
Important Terms used in Riveting
(i) Gage line: A line passing through the centres of row of
rivets which is parallel to the plate edge.
(ii) Pitch: It is the distance from the centre of one rivet to the
centre of the next rivet measured parallel to the seam.
(iii) Back pitch: The perpendicular distancebetweenthe centre
lines of the successive rows is known as back pitch.
(iv) Diagonal pitch: The distance between the centres of the
rivets in adjacent rows of zig-zag riveted joints is called
diagonal pitch.
(v) Marginal pitch: The distance between the centre of rivet
hole to the nearest edge of the plate is called marginal
pitch.
(vi) Caulking: A process in which, the edges of the plates are
given blows to facilitate the forcing down of the edge.
Blowing the plate with the help of caulking tool forms a
metal to metal contact point.
(vii) Fullering: A process in which a more satisfactory joint
is made by using a tool which has its thickness near the
end equal to the thickness of plate. This gives better joint
with clean finish.
Failures of Riveted Joint
Rivetedjoints may fail in two ways as below:
(i) Failure of Plate
(ii) Failure of Rivet
(i) Failure of Plate: Plates of the joint can fail in two ways
listed below:
(a) Tearing of plates at an edge: Ajoint may fail due to
tearing of the plate at an edge during riveting or
punching. We can avoid this by keeping the margin,
m ~ 1.5 d where d is rivet hole diameter in mm.
(b) Tearing of the plate across a row of rivets: The
main plate or cover plates may tear off across a row
of rivets due to tensile stresses in the main plates.
The tearing resistance or pull required to tear off the
plate per pitch length is given by
Pt = (P - d) t crt
wherePt= tearing resistance
P = pitch of the rivets
d = diameter of the rivet hole
t = thickness of the plate
crt = tensile stress value permissible for the
plate material
Double riveted lap joint
Depending upon the relative position of the rivets of each row
riveting is divided as
(1) Chain Riveting: In this riveting, the rivets in the various
rows are opposite to each other. Cross sectional view of
chain riveting is shown in Fig.
(2) Zig-Zig Riveting: In this case the rivets in the adjacent
rows are staggired in such a way that every rivet is in the
middle of the two rivets of the opposite row. Zig-Zig
riveting is shown in Fig.
Lapjoint with single riveted
2. But joint: In this joint, plates are kept in a way that their
edges touch each other and a cover plate is placed either
on one side or both sides of the main plates. Finally the
cover plate is riveted with the main plates. There are two
types of butt joint.
(a) Single strap Butt joint: In this case only one cover
plate is used aboveor below the main plates and then
final riveting is done.
(b) Double strap Butt joint: In this case instead of one
cover plate, two cover plates one on upper side and
other on lower side of the main plate emloyed and
then final riveting is done. Based on the number of
rows of rivets, the butt joints are classified as single
or double riveted, triple or quadruple riveted. Cross-

RIVET JOINTS
A rivet is made ofa shortcylindricalbar with ahead integral to it.
Reveting is common method ofjoining and fastening because of
low cost, simple operation and high production rates. Based on
the way in which the plates are connected, rivet joints can be
classified into two types of joints listed below.

WELDED JOINTS
A permanent joint obtained by the fusion of the edges of the two
parts to be joined together, with or withiout the application of
pressure and a filler material. There are two types of welded
joints commonly used listed below:
(a) Lap joint or Filler joint: In this joint the plates are
overlapped and then welded along the edges. The weld
filled is train gular. There are various types of lap joints
like single transverse, double transverse and parallel fillet
joints. The transverse fillet welded joints are designed for
tensile strength whereas the parallel fillet welded joints
are designed for shear strength.
Design of fillet joint: The tensile strength of a double
transverse filled weld shown in Fig. is given by
where,
Ifapplied load> P, then tearing of the plate across a
row of rivets occurs.
(ii) Failure of Rivets: Rivets may fail in two ways listed below.
If the plate thickness is less than 8 mm, the diameter of
rivet is calculated by equating the shearing resistance to
crushing.
(a) Shearing of the rivets: If the rivets are unable to
resist the tensile stress exerted by the plates, then
they are sheared off, this is known as shearing of the
rivets. In case oflap joint and single cover butt joint,
rivets are in single shear, while in case of double cover
butt joint rivets are subjected to double shear forces.
The shearing resistance or pull required to shear off
the rivet, per pitch length is given by
PSsingle= n x ~ x d2 X 1"sfor single shear
4
PSdoubleshear= 2 x PSsingle
where n = number of rivets per pitch length
1"= safe permissible shear stress for the rivet
material
d = diameter of the rivet hole
(b) Crushing of the rivets: Ifrivets get crushed off under
the tensile stress values then it is known as crushing
of the rivets. As a result the joint becomes loose. The
crushing resistance or pull required to crush the rivet
per pitch length is given by
Pc = n . d .t . ac
where ac = Permissible crushing stress for the rivet
or plate material
t = Plate thickness
n = Number of rivets per pitch length
d = diameter of the rivet hole
Efficiency of Riveted Joint
Efficiency of riveted joint is the ratio of strength of the joint to
the strength ofunriveted solid plate.

Metric Thread
There are various forms of screw threads, metric thread is an
Indian Standard (I.S.0) thread having an included angle of 60°,
these are two types, coarse threads and fine threads. For a
particular value ofdiameter, coarse threads have large pitch and
lead as compared to fine threads. Coarse threads are more in
strength and chances ofthread shearing and crushing is veryless.
They are preferred for vibration free applications as they offer
lessresistance to unscrewing. Finethreads givebetter adjustment
in fitment and are used where high vibrations take place as they
offer high resistance to unscrewing.
Fine threads are designated as Md x P for example M50 x 5
which indicates an isometric fine thread which has nominal
diameter of 50 mm and pitch 5.
While in case of coarse threads only Md is mentioned for
example M50.
Todesignate tolerance grade weuse the valuesof each tolerances
like 7 for fine grade, 8 for normal and 9 for coarse grade. For
example a bolt thread of 6 mm size of coarse pitch and with
allowance on threads and normal tolerance grade is designated
as M6-8d.
KEYS
Toprevent the relative motionofthe shaft and the machinerypart
connected to it we use a piece of mild steel called key.Keys are
temporary fastenings and are subjectedto considerable crushing
and shearing stresses. Different types of keys are listed below.
(a) Sunk keys: These keys are designed in such a way that
they are half way in the key way of the hub of pulley and
half in the key way of the shaft. There are basically five
types of sunk keys listed as following:

SHAFTS
Shafts are used to transmit power from one place to another,
these are normally of circular cross-section. Mild steels are
hot rolled and then finished to actual sizebyturning, grinding or
cold drawing to manufacture shafts. Alloy steels with
composition of nickel, chromium and vanadium is also used to
impart high strength. The cold rolled shafts are stronger than
hot rolled shafts, but with higher residual stresses.
Types of Shafts
There can be two types of shafts
(a) Transmission shaft such as counter shafts, line shafts, over
head shafts, etc.
(b) Machine shaft such as crank shaft
Design of Shaft
Shafts are designed on the basis of
(a) Strength: On the basis of strength of the shaft material we
design a shaft considering three types of stresses induced
in the shafts.
(i) Torsionalload

BEARINGS
A machine element which permits a relative motion between the
contact surfaces of the members while carrying the load. It
supports journal. The bearings are mainly classified as
(a) Sliding contact bearings
(b) Rolling contact bearings
Sliding Contact Bearings
In these bearings, the sliding takes place along the surfaces of
contact between the moving element and the fixed element.
These are also known as plain bearings.
According to the thickness oflayer ofthe lubricant between
the bearing and the journal, sliding contact bearings can be
classified as
(a) Thick film bearings: Bearings in which the working
surfaces are completely separated from each other by the
lubricant. These are also called a hydrodynamic lubricated
bearings.
(b) Thin film bearings: In these bearings although lubricant
is present, the working surfaces partially contact each other
atleast part of the time. Such type of bearings are also called
boundary lubricated bearings.
(c) Zero film bearings: Bearings which operate without any
lubricant are known as zero film bearings.
(d) Hydrostatic bearings: Bearings which can support steady
loads without any relative motion between the journal and
the bearings because there is externally pressurized
lubricant between the members.

tooth. Each tooth is considered as a cantilever beam which is
fixed at the base. The normal force acting on the tip of the gear
is resolved into radial and tangential component as shown in

small value, so it is ignored. Tangential component FT is duces a

place due to two or more concentric rotating frictional
Clutch is a connection between the driving and driven shafts
with the provision to disconnect the driven shaft instantaneously
without stopping the driving shaft. Main functions of cluthces
are to stop and start the driven member without stopping the
driving member, to maintain torque, power and speed, and to
eradicate the effects of shocks while transmitting power.

Rolling Contact Bearings
Bearing which operate on the basis ofprinciple ofrolling, i.e. the
contact between the bearing surfaces is rolling are known as
rolling contact bearings. These are also called anti friction
bearings as they offer low friction. Mainly there are two types
of rolling contact bearings.
(i) Ball bearing
(ii) Roller bearing
Average life (Median life) of a bearing: It is the number of
revolutions or number of hours at a constant speed that 50% of
a batch of ball bearing will complete or may be exceed and 50%
fail before the rated life is achieved. It is denoted by L5o.

Consider a rigid rotor with the shaft laid on horizontal

of the system of masses must lie at the axis of rotation
of the shaft. For the centre of gravity to be at the axis
of the shaft, the horizontal and vertical moments of
the rotors must be equal to zero

For uniform acceleration and retardation the velocity
of the follower must change at a constant rate and
hence the velocity diagram of the follower consists of
sloping straight lines. The velocity diagram represents
everywhere the slope ofthe displacement diagram, the
latter must be curve whose slope changes at a constant
rate. Hence the displacement diagram consists of
double parabola.

ZEROTH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS
If objects A and B are separately in thermal equilibrium with a
third object C then objects A and B are in thermal equilibrium
with each other.
Zeroth law of thermodynamics introduces thermodynamic
quantity called temperature. Two objects (or systems) are said to
be in thermal equilibrium iftheir temperatures are the same. In
measuring the temperature of a body, it is important that the
thermometer be in the thermal equilibrium with the body whose
temperature is to be measured.
(c) Isolated system:
In an isolated system, no mass and no energy is transferred
across system boundary.
~ystem boundary
~ Surroundings
(No mass transfer
No energy transfer)
(Isolated system)

~system boundary
(Thermodynamic system)
Typesofthermodynamic systems:
There are three types ofthermodynamic systems:
(a) Closed system:
A thermodynamic system in which mass is not transferred
across system boundary but energy may be transferred in
and out ofthe system, is known as closed system. Mass in
the piston - cylinder arrangement is the example of a closed
system.
(b) Open system:
The open system is defined as a system in which mass as
well as energy can be transferred with its surroundings.
Open systems are most common. The region where analysis
ofthe system is performed is known to be a control volume
and the boundary of control volume is known as control
surface. Eg: Air compressor
lnputmass
stem boundary
Input mass Exit mass
Surroundings
Exit energy
(Open system)
THERMODYNAMIC SYSTEM
A thermodynamic system is described as a kind of a region
available in space and this region is concentrated for the
purpose of analysing a problem. The system is considered
to be separated from surroundings (external to system) by
the boundary of the system. The nature of the boundary
may be real or imaginary and it is considered to be flexible
i.e., it can change its shape or size. Ifwe combine a system
and its surroundings, then it constitutes the universe.
THERMODYNAMICS
In the subject of thermodynamics, the inter-relationship
among heat, work and system properties are studied. It is
also called as the conceptual science of entropy and energy.
Some Thermodynamical Terms in brief
(i) Thermodynamic system: A thermodynamical system is an
assembly oflarge number ofparticles which can be described
by thermodynamic variables like pressure (P),volume (V),
temperature (1).
(ii) Surroundings: Everything outside the system which can
have a direct effect on the system is called surroundings.
The gas cylinder in the kitchen is the thermodynamic system
and the relevant part ofthe kitchen is the surroundings.
(iii) An adiabatic wall: The wall which prevent the passage of
matter and energy.
(iv) Diathermic wall: It prevent the passage of matter but allow
the passage of energy. An aluminium can is an example of a
container whose walls are diathermic.
(v) Closed and open system: In a closed system, energy may
transfer the boundaries of system but mass does not cross
the boundary, while in open system, both mass and energy
transfer across the boundary of the system.
(vi) An isolated system: In this type of system neither the mass
nor the energy can be exchanged with the surroundings.
(vii) Equation of state: The relationship between the pressure,
volume and temperature of the thermodynamical system is
called equation of state.
(viii) Properties : A property of a system is any abusable
characteristic of the given system various properties of the
system depend on the state of the system not on how that
state have been reached.
(xi) Intensive property of a system or those properties whose values
does not depend upon the mass of the system. Eg: Pressure,

upon the mass of the system. Eg: Length, volume etc.

equilibrium when it does not lead to change its properties
(macroscopic) and make balance with its surroundings. There,

THERMODYNAMICAL PROCESSES
Any process may have own equation of state, but each
thermodynamical process must obeyPV = nRT.
Intensive and Extensive properties
(a) Intensive properties: Intensive properties are those
properties which does not depend on the mass available in
the system.
Eg :temperature, pressure, etc.
(b) Extensive properties: Extensive properties are those
properties which depends on the mass available in the
system.
Eg :Volume,energy,etc.
Someterms like specificvolume, specificenergy etc. come
under the category of specific extensive properties.
Thermodynamic equilibrium
A systemis saidtobe in equilibriumwhenthereis no driving
forces within the system after isolation ofthe system from
its surroundings.
A system is said to be in thermodynamic equilibrium it
satisfies the following three kinds of equilibrium:
(a) Mechanicalequilibrium
(b) Thermalequilibrium
(c) Chemicalequilibrium
Internal energy or energy of the system
The internal energy of the thermodynamic system is
regarded as the combination of all kinds/forms of energy
of the system. These all forms of energy include kinetic
energy, potential energy vibrational energy, rotational
energy etc.
IfdU is the internal energy of the system, then,
dU=MC~T
where, M = mass in kg, C = specific heat - capacity,
~T = change in temperature.
Energy can also be considered as a property of a
thermodynamic system. Consider a system that undergoes
a change fromstate'A' to state'B' and the systemundergoes
a cyclic process.

If SI and S2are the entropies ofthe system I and 2 respectivelyat
any temperature, then SI < S2.
(i) Entropy is not a conserved quantity.
(ii) Entropy can be created but cannot be destroyed.
(iii) Entropy of the universe always increases.
If a system at temperature T is supplied a small amount of heat
~Q, then change in entropy of the system can be defined as
~Q
M= T for constant T
For a systemwith variable T, we have
sf dQ
~S = Sf - s, = f T
s,
The second law of thermodynamics may be stated in terms of
entropy as:
It is impossible to have a process in which the entropy of an
isolated system is decreased.
FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS
The first law of thermodynamics is based on conservation of
energy. According to this law heat Q supplied to a system is
equal to the sum ofthe change in internal energyfal.I) and work
done by the system (W). Thus we can write
Q = ~U+W
More about First Law of Thermodynamics
1. Heat supplied to the system taken as positive and heat
given by the system taken as negative.
2. It makes no different between heat and work. It does not
indicate that why the whole of heat energy cannot be
converted into work.
3. Heat and work depend on the initial and final states but on
the path also. The change in internal energy depends only
on initial and final states of the system.
4. The work done by the system against constant pressure P
is W = P~V. So the first law of thermodynamics can be
written as Q = /).u + p/).v .
5. Differentialformofthe first law;
dQ = dU+dW
or ~ = dU+NV
SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS
(i) Kelvin - Plank Statement: It is impossible to construct an
engine that can convert heat completely into work without
producing any other effect.According to the statement the
efficiencyof any heat engine always be less than 100%.
(ii) Clausius Statement: For a self acting machine, it is
impossible to transfer heat from a colder body to a hotter
body without the aid of external agency.
ENTROPY
Entropy is the another thermodynamical variable which many
times veryuseful to understand the system.Entropy is related to
the disorder orrandomness in the system.Tounderstand this, let

where, My= mass of steam or vapour
ML= mass ofLiquid (saturated)
Drynessfractionis utilizedto calculatethe quantityofliquid

Enthalpy is also considered as a function of temperature
for the case of perfect gases. Hence, it can be written as :

where, L1H= H2- HI= enthalpy difference
L1T = T2- TI = temperature difference

ANALYSIS OF THERMODYNAMIC CYCLES
RELATED TO ENERGY CONVERSION
According to first law ofthermodynamics, heat given to a system
(~Q) is equal to the sum of increase in its internal energy (~U)
and the work done (~W) bythe systemagainst the surroundings.
i.e., 1Q= ~U + 1W
Heat(~Q) andworkdone(~W) arethe path functionsbut internal
energy (~U) is the point function.
Work
Let us consider a gas or liquid contained in a cylinder equipped
with a movablepiston, as shown in Fig. Supposethat the cylinder
has a cross-sectional area A and the pressure exerted by the gas
at the piston is P.
total volume of the gas. Therefore volume of the gas is
equal to volume of the vessel.
(4) The moleculesofgases are in a stateofrandom motion, i.e.,
theyare constantlymoving with all possiblevelocitieslying
between zero and infinity in all possible directions.
(5) Normally no force acts between the molecules. Hence they
move in straight line with constant speeds.
(6) The molecules collide with one another and also with the
walls ofthe container and change there direction and speed
due to collision. These collisions are perfectly elastic i.e.,
there is no loss of kinetic energy in these collisions.
(7) The molecules do not exert any force of attraction or
repulsion on each other except during collision. So, the
moleculesdo not posses any potential energy.Their energy
iswhollykinetic.
(8) The collisions are instantaneous i.e., the time spent by a
moleculein a collisionis verysmallas comparedto the time
elapsed between two consecutive collisions.
(9) Thoughthemoleculesareconstantlymovingfromoneplace
toanother,the averagenumberofmoleculesperunit volume
of the gas remains constant.
(10) The molecules inside the vessel keep on moving
continuously in all possible directions, the distribution of
molecules in the wholevesselremains uniform.
(11) The mass ofa molecule is negligibly small and the speed is
very large, there is no effectof gravity on the motion ofthe
molecules. Ifthis effect were there, the density of the gas
would have been greater at the bottom of the vessel.
Equation of State or Ideal Gas Equation
The equation which relates the pressure (P), volume (V) and
temperature (T) of the given state of an ideal gas is known as
ideal gas equation or equation of state.
i.e., PV=nRT
where R = universal gas constant
Numerical value ofR = 8.31joule mol-1 kelvirr '
n = no. of moles of gas
Behaviour of Real Gases
The gases actually found in nature are called real gases.
1. Real gases do not obey gas laws
2. These gases do not obey the ideal gas equation
PV=nRT
3. A real gas behaves as ideal gas most closelyat lowpressure
and high temperature.
4. Equation of state for real gases is given by Vander waal's
equation

Qxy- To(Sy- Sx)
or u.E. Qxy- Wmax
or u.E. = To(S, - Sx)
The unavailable energy is thus the product of the lowest
temperature of heat rejection, and the change of entropy of the
system during the process of supplying heat.
Availability of a Given System
It is the maximum useful work (total work minuspdV work) that
is obtainable in a process in which the system comes to
equilibrium with its surroundings. It depends on the state of
both the system and surroundings.
LetU, S, andVbethe initial valuesofthe internal energy,entropy,
and volumeofa systemand Uo,So,and Votheir [mal valueswhen
the system has come to equilibrium with its environment. The
system exchanges, heat only with the environment, and the
process may be either reversible or irreversible, the useful work
obtained in the process
W ::;;(U-ToS+poV)-(Uo- ToSo+PoVo)
Let <1>=U- ToS+ PoV
where <I>is the availabilityfunction and is a compositepropertyof
both the system and its environment, with U, S, and V being
properties of the system at someequilibrium state, and Toand Po
the temperature and pressure of the environment. (In the Gibbs
function, G = U- TS + PV,T, and p refer to the system).
The decrease in the availabilityfunction in a process in which the
systemcomes to equilibrium with its environment is
<I>-<I>o=(U- ToS+ PoV)-(Uo- ToSo+PoVo)
.. W::;;<I>-<I>o
Thus the useful work is equal to or less than the decrease in the
availability function.
Irreversibility of the Process
The actualwork donebya systemis alwayslessthan the idealized
reversible work, and the differencebetween the two is called the
irreversibility ofthe process.
1= Wmax- W
This isalsosometimesreferredtoas 'degradation' or 'dissipation'.
For a non-flow processbetween the equilibrium states, when the
system exchangs heat only with the environment
.. I~O
I= To[(1S)system+ (~S)SUlT.J
Similarly, for steady flowprocess, I = To(1Ssystem+ ~SSUlT)
The same expression for irreversibility applies to both flow and
non-tlowprocesses. The quantityTo(~Ssystem+ 1SSillT)represents
an increase in unavailable energy (or energy).
BEHAVIOUR OF IDEAL AND REAL GASES
Behaviour of Ideal Gases
The behaviour of ideal gases is based on the following
assumptions of kinetic theory of gases :
(1) All the molecules of a gas are identical. The molecules of
different gases are different.
(2) The moleculesarerigid andperfectlyelastic spheres ofvery
smalldiameter.

Types of Pure Substances
Two different types of pure substances are :
(i) Element: An element is a substance which cannot be split
up into two or more simpler substances by usual chemical
methods of applying heat, lighting or electric energy, e.g.,
hydrogen, oxygen, sodium, chlorine etc.
(ii) Compound: A compound is a substance made up of two or
more elements chemically combined in a fixed ratio by weight
e.g. H20 (water), NaCI (sodium chloride) etc.

If the heating of ice at - 10°C to stream at 250°C at the constant
pressure of 1atm is considered 1-2is solid(ice)heating, 2-3 ismelting
ofice at O°C,3-4 is the liquid heating, 4-5 isthe vaporization ofwater
at 100°C, and 5-6 is the heating in the vapour state. The process may
be reversed from state 6 to state 1upon cooling. The curve passing
through the 2, 3 points is called the fusion curve and the curve
passing through the 4, 5points (which indicated the vaporization or
condensation at different temperature and pressure) is called the
vaporization curve. The vapour pressure of a solid is measured at
different temperatures, and these are plotted as a sublimation curve.
These three curves meet as the tripple point as shown in the figure.
The slopes of sublimation curve and vaporization curves for all
substance are positive and slope of the fusion curve for more
substance is positive but for water, it is negative. The triple point of
water is at4.58 mm ofHg and 273.16 K whereas that ofCO2 isat 3885
mm ofHg and 216.55 K.So when solid CO2 (dry ice) is exposed to 1
atm pressure, it gets transformed into vapour, absorbing the latent
heat of sublimation from surroundings.

WT = h, - h2s + h3 - h4s; Wp = h6s - hs
In practise, the use of reheat only gives a small increase in cycle
efficiency, but it increases the net work output by making possible
the use of higher pressures, keeping the quality of steam at turbine
exhaust within a permissible limit.
By increasing the number of reheats, still higher steam pressures
could be used, but the mechanical stresses increase at a higher
proportion than the increase in pressure, becuase ofthe prevailing
high temperature.
In this cycle, the expansion of steam from the initial state 1to the
condenser pressure is carried out in two or more steps depending
upon the number of reheats used.
In this case efficiency,

BRAYTON CYCLE WITH REGENERATOR AND
REHEATER
In the regenerator, the temperautre of air leaving the compressor
is raised by heat transfer from the turbine exhaust. The maximum
temperature to which the cold air at 2 could be heated is the
temperature of the hot air leaving the turbine at 5. This is possible
only in an infinite heat exchanger. In the real case, the temperature
at 3 is less than that at 5.

AIR STANDARD CYCLES
Air standard cycles are utilized for the purpose of analysing
the working ofInternal combustion Engine. It is considered
to be an idealized cycle and the following assumptions are
made for analysis:
1. The working fluid is taken as air for the cycle and assumed
to be a perfect gas.
2. The engine is assumed to working in a closed cycle. There
is no change of mass of the working medium.
3. All the processes that conclude the cycle is of reversible
nature.
In the cycle 4-5-6-4', rp is lower than in the basic cycle 1-2-3-4', so
its efficiency is lower. Therefore, the efficiency of the cycle
decreases with the use of reheat. But T6 is greater than T'4.
Therefore, ifregeneration is employed, there is more energy that
can be recovered from the turbine exhaust gases. So when
regeneration is employed in conjunction with reheat, there may
be a net gain in cycle efficiency.

four complete strokes within the cylinder and crankshaft completes
two revolutions for each, thermodyamic cycle. These engines are
called four-stroke internal combustion engine.

Steam boilers
Steamboiler isbasicallya closedvesselinto which water is
heated until the water is converted into steam at required
pressure by combustion of fuel. In this, fuel is generally
burnt in a turnace and hot gases are produced. These hot
gases come in contact with water vessel and the heat of
hot gases is transfered to water and steam is produced.
This steam is fed through pipes to the turbine of thermal
power plant.

(b) Pressure Compounded impulse turbine : In case of
simple impulse turbine, high velocity steam flows through
moving blades produces a high amount of rotational speed
which should be avoided for practical purposes. In this
type, a number of simple impulse turbines in series are
mounted on a single common shaft. Each simple impulse
turbine is said to be the stage of the turbine. Each stage
consists of its own nozzles and blades. The steam coming
out from the boiler passes through first nozzle where its
pressure is decreased and velocity is increased. This high
velocity steam is directed towards the moving blades of
first stage result absorption of all of its velocity. Hence the
steam pressure does not is being apsorbed. Thus the total
dynamic action of steam turbine plays an important role
during the working of steam turbine. The steam is impinged
with a high pressure via nozzle and because of this
impingement, a specific amount of heat energy is
transformed into kinetic energy. Now, the high velocity
steam particles strike on the blade of turbine resulting in
change in direction of motion and develops a momentum.
Steam flows with high velocity like jets and moving parts
of turbine transforms these high velocity sets into
mechanical work which rotates the shaft of generator and
thus rotation of shaft gives rise to the generation of
electricity.
Classification of turbine:

given as follows;
(a) Simple Impulse turbine: In Simple impulse turbine,
rotar is connected to the shaft which provides useful power.
It is a rotating element of turbine which consists of moving
blades. In the middle portion of the turbine, the nozzle and
blades are available. Nozzle works as a passage for steam
flow where high pressure energy of steam is converted
into kinetic enegry. Simple impulse turbine is also known
as De Lavel turbine. In this type, only one set of blades is
fixed to the wheel through which conversion of kinetic
energy of steam into mechanical work takes place. It has a
very large ratio of expansion i.e., the velocity of steam is
very high (1000 m/s).

(e) Reaction turbine:
In the reaction turbines, steam from the boiler first flows
through guiding mechanism and then flows through the
moving blades. The kinetic energy is minimised. The
pressure energy does not change before striking. When
the steam passes through moving blades, then is a
difference of pressure between inlet and outlet tips due
to w_hichpressure is decreased while passing through
movmg blades. The fixed blades are considered to change
the steam direction and at the same time allowing to get
expanded to higher velocity values. The steam pressure
decreases when if passes over the moving blades.
Velocitycompounding
(d) Pressure velocity compounded turbine:
Itis the combinationarrangement ofpressurecompounding
and velocity compounding. The decrease in total pressure
of steam is split in stages and velocity of each stage is
compounded. A High amount of pressure is decreases in
this type of turbine and so lesser number of stages are
required which gives rise to design ofa smaller turbine for
similar value of pressure drop. The efficiency is very low
and it is very rarey used nowadays.
Pressure compounding

This typeofturbinesconsistsofa setofnozzlesand moving
blades rows which are connected the shaft whereas the
fixedblade rows are connected to casing. Ithas in general,
moving and fixedblades.The steam at a veryhigh pressure
coming out from boiler is expanded in the nozzle where
pressure energy is transformed into the kinetic energy.The
steam at high velocity is impinged on the first stage of
moving blades and steam flows through blades loosing
some amount of velocity due to the fact that some part of
momentum imported by blade. High kinetic energy is
absorbed and steam velocity remains constant while
passing through fixed blades. The process is repeated fill
all of steam energy is being absorbed.
pressure absorbed is equally (nearly) divided in stages
which reduces the steam velocity entering into moving
blade.

about 85% ofworking stroke is completed. A pressure (4-
5bar) forcesabout60%ofburnt gasesintoexhaustmaxifold
at high speed. The remaining burnt gases are cleared off
the swept volume when the piston moves from B.D.C to
T.D.C.The exhaust value opensand inertia offlywheeland

Four stroke cycle engine:
Most of the I.C. Engines work on the basis of four stroke
cycle engine. Following is the sequence of operations are
given in four stroke cycle engine:
(a) Suction Stroke: To start with, the piston is near to
Top dead center (TD.S) and the inlet value is open and
exhaust value is closed.As the piston moves from T.D.C to
B.D.C, the charge is to rush in and fill the space created by
piston. The charge consists of air-fuel mixture. The
admission of charge inside cylinder continuous until the
inlet value is closed.
(b) Compression stroke: In this stroke, both values are
closed and the piston moves from B.D.C to TD.C. The
charge is compressed upto compression ratio of 5 : 1 to
9 : 1 and the pressure and temperature at the end of
compression are 6 - 12bar and 250 - 300° C respectively.
(c) Power or Expansion stroke: When the piston reaches
TD.C. position, the charge is ignited bycausing an electric
spark by spark plug. During combustionprocess, chemical
energy of fuel is released and there is a rise in temperature
and pressure of gases. The temperature of gases increases
to 1800- 2000°C and pressure reaches 30-40 bar. Now the
combustion products expand and push the piston down
the cylinder. The reciprocating piston motion is converted
into rotary motion of crankshaft by a connecting rod and
crank. During expansion,pressuredecreasesdue to increase
in volume of gases and heat absorption by cylinder walls.
(d) Exhaust stroke: In this stroke, the exhaust value is
opened at the end ofworking strokes when the piston is at

two systems which are equal in temperature to a third
system, they are equal in temperature to each other '.
Accordingly when 50 cc of water at 25°C are mixed
with 150cc ofwater at 25°C, the resulting temperature
ofthe mixture will be 25°C, Same analogy applies to
situationsin(b) and (c). However,this argument isnot
valid when water and sulphuric acid, initially at the

than the saturation temperature then it is subcooled
liquid or compressed liquid. For 150 bar pressure
saturation temperature is 342.24. But as temperature is

specific enthalpy would be 188.45 kJ/kg.

FLUID PROPERTIES
1. Density (p) : It is defined as mass per unit volume of
substance.
Fluid: Fluid is a substance which has the property tendency to
flowunder the action of shear and tangential forces.
Liquids and gases both are fluids. 2.
Ideal and Real fluids:
• In ideal fluids, there is no viscosity and no surface tension
and are incompressible.
• In real fluids, viscosity, surface tension together exist and
are compressible along with density.
Classification of fluids :
Fluids can be classified on the basis of the following:
Based on density and viscosity
(i) Ideal fluid: An ideal fluidis describedas a fluidwhich is in
compressible and also has zero viscosity and constant
density.
(ii) Real fluids: A real fluid is described as a fluid which is
compressible and viscous by nature. The density of real
fluid are variable and while in motion, an amount of
resistance is always offered by these fluids.
(iii) Newtonian fluids: Newtonian fluidssare defined as fluids
those obeyNewton's law of viscosity.The density ofthese
fluids may be constant or variable. The viscosity is
calculated according to Newton's law of viscosity as :
du
t=f..l-
dy
where, r = shear stress
f..l= viscosity offluid
du/dy = velocity gradient
Examples are, water, ethyl alcohol, benzene etc.
(iv) Non-Newtonion fluids: Non-newtonian fluids are defined
as fluids those do not obey Newton's laws of viscosity.
The density of these fluids may be constant or variable
and the viscosity of these fluids does not remain constant.
Examples are Gels, Solutions ofpolymers, pastes etc.
(v) Compressible fluids: A compressible fluid is defined as
the fluid which reduces its volume when an external
pressure is applied. All the fluids available in nature are
compressible.
(vi) In-compressible fluids: Incompressiblefluids are defined
as the fluids whose density does not change when the
value of pressure changes. There is no effect of pressure
on the density of fluid. In these fluids, density remains
constant and viscosity remains non-zero.
(vii) Inviscid fluid: Inviscid fluid is the fluid which has zero
viscosity and density may be constant or variable.

When a tube of very fine diameter is immersed in a liquid, there
will be rise or fall of liquid level in the tube depending upon
whether the liquid is wetting with the tube or non-wetting.
The rise or fall ofliquid levelin the tube is a phenomenon known
as capillarity.
h : rise of liquid level in tube

• If adhesion »» cohesion,
Liquid wets the surface.
If cohesion > > > > adhesion,
No wetting
For wetting, angle of contact (8) should be acute and for
non-wetting angle of contact (8) should be obtuse.
Adhesive forces are attractive forces between the molecular ofa
liquid/fluid and the molecular of a solid boundary surface in
contact.
• Property of a liquid.
• The basic cause of surface tension is the presence of
cohesive forces.
• It is a property by virtue of which liquids want to mnimize
their surface area upto maximum extent.
Icr=~IN/m
Wetting and Non-Wetting Liquids
• It is the mutual property of liquid-surface.

Cohesive and Adhesive forces:
Cohesive forces are intermolecular attraction of forever be-
tween molecular of same liquid/fluid.

• IfB lies above G, the body is in stable equilibrium.
• IfB and G coincide, the body is in neutral equilibrium.
• IfB lies below G, the body is in unstable equilibrium.
Stability of Floating Body
Metacentric point (M):When a body is given a small angular
displacement which is floating in a liquid in a state of
equilibrium. It starts oscillating about some point (M), known
as metacentric point.
• IfM lies above G, the body is in stable equilibrium.
• If M and G coincide, the body is in neutral equilibrium.

FLUIDKINEMATICS
• There are two approaches to kinematics of a fluid flowi.e.
Lagragian approach and Eularian approach.
• In classical fluid mechanics, Eularian approach is
considered.
Different Types of Flow
1. Steadyflow
If the properties in the flow are not changing with respect
to time, such a flow is known a steady flow.
2. Uniformflow
Ifthe properties (velocityat any giventime) isnot changing
with respect to space, such a flow is known as uniform
flow.
3. Incompressibleflow
If the density of the fluid doesn't change with respect to
pressure, the flow is known as incompressible flow.
4. Rotationaland Irrotationalflow
Ifthe fluid particles are rotating about their centre ofmass,
the flow is known as rotational flow. If the fluid particles
aren't rotating about their centre of mass, the flow is
known as irrotational flow.
• Laminar and turbulent flow: In Laminar flow, individual
particles move in a zig-zag way.
For Reynold's number (R ).
If Re < 2000, flow in laminar
If Re > 4000, flow in turbulent
If 2000 < Re < 4000, flow may be laminar/turbulent
• Rate of flow / Discharge (Q):
Q = Area x Average velocity
Q=AxV
5. Internal and External flows :
---j. In case of an internal flow, it is surrounded or
bounded by solid boundaries. Due to these solid
boundaries the development of boundary layer is
restricted.
E.g: Flow through pipe
---j. In case of external flow, the fluid flows over the
bodies which are immersed in an un-bounded fluid and
hence the boundary layer develops freely in single
direction.
Eg : flows over air foild, turbine blades etc.

For floatation of body,the density of the body must be equal to
or less than density ofliquid i.e.

Applications of Bernoulli's Equation
Following are the applications of Bernoulli's equation given
below:
(a) Sizing of pumps: In case of pumps, kinetic energy is
converted into pressure energy according to Bernoulli's
eqaution.
(b) Ejectors: In ejectors, pressure energy of the fluid is
converted into velocity energy for the purpose of
entraining suction fluid. The mixed fluid is recompressed
by converting velocity enegry into pressure energy. This
process is based on Bernoulli's equation.
(c) Pitot tube: It is utilized for the purpose of measuring
the fluid flow velocity.The principle of pitot tube is based
on the Bernoulli's equation.
(d) Carburetor: Carburetor also works on the basis of
Bernocelli's equation. When the velocity of air is
increased, it lowers the static pressure and increases the
value of dynamic pressure.

The height point of siphon is called summit.
No section of the pipe will be more than 7.6 m above the

When absolute pressure of water becomes less than 2.7 m
gases come out from water and get collected at the summit
thereby providing an obstruction to flow.

The conversion of energy carried by water into electrical energy
is carried out by the turbo-generator. In this a rotating turbine
driven by the water and connected by a common shaft to the
rotor of a generator.
Any turbine consists of a set of curved blades designed to deflect
the water in such a way that it gives up as much as possible of its
energy. The blades and their support structure make up the turbine
runner, and the water is directed on to this either by channels
and guide vanes or through ajet, depending on the type of turbine.

-+ Vortex chamber pump : In this type, there is an
uniform increasing area which is given between the
outer periphery of impeller and the volute casing.
-+ Diffuserpump: In this type,the guidsvanes areplaced
at the impeller vanes-outlet. In this, due to enlarge
area of cross - section of guids vanes, the velocity
of water increases and the pressure decreases. It
provide improved value of efficiency.
Based on direction of flow of water :
-+ Radial flow : In this type, the flow of water in the
impeller is totally in radial direction.
-+ Mixed flow: In this type, the change of direction of
flow of water from radial flow to the combination of
a radial flow and axial flowtakes place due to which
flow area is enhanced.
-+ Axial flow: In this type, high discharge and lowheads
is used. Eg : Irrigation.
Number of entrances to the impleller :
-+ Single suction pump : In this type, suction pipe is
arranged only one side of impeller.
-+ Double suction pump : In this type, suction pip is
arranged on the both ofthe sides ofthe impeller. Due
to which, discharge is increased.
Based on disposition of the shaft :
-+ Horizontal shafts: In this type, horizontal shafts are
used in centrifugal pumps.
-+ Vertical shafts : In this type, vertical shafts are
utilized if there is a lake of space available.
Based on number of stages :
-+ Single stage : In this type, only one impuller is
connected to the shaft.
-+ Multi stage: In this type, a number of impellers are
mounted on the same shaft and enclosed in the same
casing.

(a) Rotating components:
-+ Impeller: It is the main rotating component which
works for the purpose of providing centrifugal
acceleration to the fluid.
-+ Shaft: It works for the purpose of transmitting
torques which are encountered during starting and
during operation. It also works as a supporting
member for the impeller and other rotating
components.
(b) Stationary components :
-+ Casing: In this, the conversion of kinetic energy
into pressure energy takes place. Generally three
kinds of casings are used given as :
• Volute casing: It is utilized for higher heads
• Vortex casing : In this, reduction of eddy
currents takes place.
• Circular casing : It is utilized for lower head.
-+ Diffusers are employed in multistage pumps.
Priming
In this process, suction pipe, casing and delivery pipe is filled
upto delivery value with water. It is also utilized for removing
air from the above mentioned parts.
-+ Positive priming : In this type, the speed of processing
is increased
-+ Negative priming: In this type, the speed of processing
is decreased.
Classification of Centrifugal Pumps
Centrifugal pumps may be classified based on the following:
(a) Based on working head:
-+ Low head centrifugal pumps : These are generally
single stage centrifugal pumps. The working ofthese
pumps is generally below the 15 m head.
-+ Medium head centrifugal pumps : The working of
these pumps is generally at the heads lying between
15 mand45 m.
-+ High - head centrifugal pumps : In high head
centrifugal pumps, the value of head enceeds 45 m.
These are generally multistage pumps having guids
vanes.
(b) Based on specific speed : Specific speed of a centrifugal
pump is defined as the speed of identical pump which
provides unit discharge with unit head.

Steel Alloys: Along with the carbon, all steels may be alloyed
by mixing some other elements in various proportions
to improve followingmost common properties of steel.
Some of them are given below:
(a) Toimprove hardness, toughness, wear resistance, corrosion
resistance, ductility and red hot hardness, etc.
(b) Sometimes alloying is done to improve grain structure.
Classification:
Steel alloys may be classified into many types on the
basis of different properties. Some of them are given
below:
(a) Internal Structure: On the basis of internal
structure steel alloys.
Chromium It promotes hardness, toughness and
corrosion resistance.
Silicon Improveselasticity,magnetic permeability
and decrease hysteresis losses.
Nickel Improves corrosion resistance, toughness,
ductility, deep hardness and tensile
strength.
Cobalt Improves toughness, hardness, tensile
strength and thermal resistance.s
Manganese Minimise the bad effect of sulphur and
increase strength and toughness also.
Tungsten Increases toughness, hardness, shock
resistance, wear resistivity and red hot
hardness, etc.
Molybdenum Improves thermal resistance, wear
resistance, red hot hardness and hardness
etc.
Vanadium Promotes elastic limit, shock resistance,
ductility and tensile strength etc.
Titanium Promotes hardness.
Niobium Decrease hardness and promotes fine
gram growth, impact strength and
ductility etc.
Aluminium It acts as a de-oxidizer and promotes fine
growths
Copper It Increase corrosion resistance and
strength etc.
Boron It improves hardenability.
Effect on Steel ElementAlloying
steel is slightly better than that of semi-killed steel.
Effect ofAlloying Elements on SteelIron contains carbon in two forms: (free form) and
(combined form). But in steel, carbon is present in
chemically combined form which is limited up to 1.5%.
Beyond this percentage of carbon, categorized into cast
iron.
Or we may saysteel is a mixture ofiron and chemically
combined carbon from 0.15%-1.5%. Some other elements
are also present in steel like sulphur, silicon, phosphorous
and manganese etc.
Classification of Steel:
These steel are known as plain carbon steel. According to
percentage of carbon, it may be classified as under:
(a) Dead Mild Steel - below 0.15% carbon.
(b) Mild Steel (low carbon steel) - carbon from 0.15%-0.3%.
(c) Medium Carbon Steel- 0.3%-0.8% carbon.
(d) High Carbon Steel- 0.8%-1.5% carbon.
Classification of Steel according Manufacturing Process:
(a) Killed Steel: It is a well de-oxidised steel and the steel has
been completely deoxidised by the addition of an agent
such as silicon or aluminium, before casting, so that there
is practically no evolution of gas during solidification.
Killed steelsare characterised by a high degree of chemical
homogeneity and freedom from porosity. The main
disadvantage of killed steels is that it suffers from deep
pipe shrinkage defects. This steel is denoted by 'K'.
(b) Semi-Killed Steel: It is a secondary level
de-oxidised steel than the killed steel and does not show
the degree of properties like killed steel. Most of steel
carrying carbon 0.15% to 0.25% comes in this category.
Generally it is free from blow holes and having a sound
outer surface. It is most widely used in structural work.
(c) Rimmed Steel: Generally dead mild steel or we may say
steels having 0.5% carbon are rimmed and partially de-
oxidised. Due to rimmed, it consists a good surface finish.
It is mostly used in rolling, deep drawing and spinning, etc.
It is denoted by 'R'.
Capped steels: Capped steel starts as rimmed steel but
part way through the solidification the ingot is capped.
This can be done by literally covering the ingot mold or
by adding a deoxidizing agent. The top of the ingot then
forms into a solid layer of steel, but the rim of the rest of
the ingot is thinner than in rimmed steel. Also there is less
segregation of impurities. The yield of rimmed and capped

excess of 7%, along with more than 0.60% carbon.
High speed steel may use with almost 2-3 times higher cutting
speed than high carbon cutting tool. High speed steel may
retain its hardness upto 600°C approximately.
According to the alloying elements, high speed steel may be
divided into following:
(a) Plain High Speed Steel: It contains 18% tungsten, 4%
chromium, 1% vanadium, 0.7% carbon with rest
percentage of iron(Fe). It consists good red hot
hardness, wear and shock resistivity. It is commonly
used for making cutting tools for lathe machines,
planner machines, shaper machines and drilling
machines, etc. Such HSS tool could machine (tunn)
mild steel jobs at speed only up to 20 - 30 mlmin.
(b) Cobalt High Speed Steel: It contains about 20%
tungsten, 12% cobalt, 4% chromium, 2% vanadium,
0.8% carbon and rest iron. It improves red hardness
and retention of hardness of the matrix.
(c) Vanadium High Speed Steel: It is simply plain high
speed steel containing higher percentage of vanadium
which provides better abrassive resistance than plain
high speed steel. It forms special carbides of
supreme hardness, increase high temperature wear
resistance, retention of hardness and high temperature
strength of the matrix.
(d) Molybdenum High Speed Steel: It contains 6%
molybdenum, 6% tungsten, 4% chromium, 2% vanadium
and rest iron. It shows better cutting properties. It
improves red hardness, retention of hardness and
high temperature strength of the matrix, form special
carbides of great hardness. Tungsten High Speed
Steel: It contains 0.73% carbon, 18% tungsten, 4%
chromium, 1% vanadium andrestiron(Fe).1t improves
red hardness, retention of hardness and high
temperature strength of the matrix, form special
carbides of great hardness.
HEATlREAlMENTPROCESS USED IN ENGINEERING
PRACnCE
Heat treatment is an operation or combination of operations
involving heating at a specific rate, soaking at a temperature for a
period of time and cooling at some specified rate. The aim is to
obtain a desired microstructure to achieve certain predetermined
properties (physical, mechanical, magnetic or electrical).
The important principle ofheat treatment are as follows:
(a) Phase transformation during heating.
(b) Effect of cooling rate on structural changes during cooling.
(c) Effect of carbon content and alloying elements.
Objectives ofheat treatment (heat treatment processes):
(a) To increase strength, harness and wear resistance (bulk
hardening, surface hardening).
(b) To increase ductility, toughness and softness (tempering,
recrystallization, annealing).
(c) To obtain fine grain size (recrystallization annealing, full
annealing, normalizing).
(d) To remove internal stresses induced by differential
deformation by cold working, non -uniform cooling from high
temperature during casting and welding (stress relief
annealing).
(b) According to Application: Structural steel, Tool
steel and Special Alloys steel.
(c) Principle Alloying Element: Nickel steel,
Manganese steel, Tungsten steel and Chromium
steel etc.
Special Steel Alloys
Stainless Steel: It is alloy of steel containing chromium as
principal alloying element along with other elements like Nickel
and Manganese, etc. Generally, chromium present in stainless
steel is about 12%. The chromium present in stainless steel
reacts with oxygen present in atmosphere and makes a strong
layer of chromium oxide which is a highly corrosive resistant
in nature. On the basis of structure, stainless steel may be
classified into following:
(a) Austenitic Stainless Steel: Austenitic steel (not temperable):
Cr= 16.5 - 26%, Ni = 7 - 25%, Mo if used 1.5 - 4.5%,
C = max 0.07%. It contains about 10%-12% chromium, 7%-
10% Nickel, 2% Manganese and 1%-2% Silicon and some
other elements in minor quantity like Molybdenum and
Titanium etc. Its hardness and strength may be improved
by cold working only, not by any heat treatment etc. It is
highly corrosion resistant and non-magnetic in nature.
These alloys are highly resistant to many acids including
hot and cold nitric acid and at temperature above 1200°F,
are stronger and scale-less than any other plain chromium
alloys. It consists good ductility and weldability, etc.
(b) Martensitic Stainless Steel: Martensitic steel (temperable) :
Cr = 12 - 18%, Mo ifused = 1.3 - 2%, C = max 0.25%. It
contains 10%-14% chromium along with 0.08%-1.5% carbon
and some other elements. The carbon dissolves in
austenite which when quenched, provides martensitic
structure. It consist comparatively less corrosion resistivity
and good strain resistivity. It responds good for heat
treatment.
(c) Ferritic Stainless Steel: Ferritic steel (partial temperable)
Cr = 12 -30%, Mo if used = 1.3 - 2.5%, C = max 0.08%. It
contains about 12%-18% and 25%-30% chromium without
any other major alloying elements. Sometimes (1%-15%)
manganese and upto 1% silicon is added. Generally, low
carbon steel is employed to make ferritic stainless steel. It
consists poorer ductility and formability along with good
weldability having good corrosion resistivity. It is mostly
used in utensils, cutlery, surgical instruments and furnace
parts, etc.
High Speed Steel (H.S.S.): It is a well known tool steel and
possesses the best combination of all properties. Ferritic -
austenitic steel ( partial temeperable) : Cr = 17 - 27%, Ni = 4 -
6%, Mo ifused = 1.3 - 2%, C = max 0.10%. Which are essential
for a good cutting tool for working at higher speed. These are
hardness, toughness, wear resistance, hot hardness. High
speed and cutting feed may result in production of high
temperature at job and tool steel. So, it requires to be retain its
properties like hardness and toughness etc. at generated high
temperature. This property of retaining hardness and toughness
etc. at elevated temperature is known as red hot hardness. High
speed steels belongs to the Fe-C-X multicomponent alloy
system where X represents chromium, tungsten, molybdenum,
vanadium and cobalt. Generally, the X component is present in

the heat treatment more uniformly. The properties of
normalized steels depend on their chemical composition
and the cooling rate, with the cooling rate being a function
of the size of the part. Although there can be a
considerable variation in the hardness and strengths of
normalized steels, the structure usually contains a fine
microstructure. This process is almost similar to annealing
except in this process metal is heated 40°-50°C above its
critical temperature and holding time is very shorter than
annealing like (15 minutes) and then cooled down at room
temperature in still air.
This process improves impact strength of metal and
removed internal stress ofmetal. Italso increase mechanical
properties of metal like softness, mechanibility and refine
grain structure of metal.
(c) Hardening: In this process, metal is heated 30°-50°C more
than its critical temperature and hold at that temperature up
to a specific time, then cooled rapidly by quenching in
water, oil or salt bath. This process increase hardness of
metal.
(d) Spheroidizing: Spheroidizing: - To produce steel in its
softest possible condition with minimum hardness and
maximum ductility, it can be spheroidized by heating just
above orjust below the A 1eutectoid temperature and then
holding at that temperature for an extended period of time.
Spheroidizing can also be conducted by cyclic processing,
in which the temperature of the steel is cycled above and
below the A 1 line. This process breaks down lamellar
structure into small pieces that form small spheroids
through diffusion in a continuous matrix. Surface tension
causes the carbide particles to develop a spherical shape.
Because a fine initial carbidesizeacceleratessperoidization,
the steel is often normalized prior to spheroidizing. This is
the process of producing a structure in which the
cementite is in a spheroidal distribution. If the steel is
heated slowlyto a temperature just belowthe critical range
and held for a prolonged period of time, then structure will
be obtained the globular structure obtained given improved
machinability of steel.
(e) Tempering: This process may be defined as opposite of
hardening. In this process, hardened steel is re-heated
below critical temperature and allows to cool as slow rate
which increase the softness and decrease the hardness
and brittleness. This process increases toughness and
ductility of steel. This process enables transformation of
some martensite into ferrite and cementite.Tempering is
used to reach specific values of mechanical properties, to
relieve quenching stresses, and to ensure dimensional
stability. It usually follows quenching from above the
upper critical temperature; however,tempering is also used
to relieve the stresses and reduce the hardness developed
during welding and to relieve stresses induced by forming
and machining. The exactamount ofmartensite transformed
into ferrite and cementite will depend upon the temperature
to which the metal is re-heated. When the hardened steel
is reheated to a temperature between 100°-200°C, then
(e) Toimprove surfaceproperties (surface hardening, corrosion
resistance-stabilizing treatment and high temperature
resistance-precipitation hardening, surfacetreatment).
(t) To improve cutting properties of tool steels (hardening and
tempering).
(g) To improve magnetic and electrical properties (hardening,
phase transformation).
(h) Toimprovemachinability(fullannealing andnormalizing).
The process of heat treatment may be classified into following
types:-
(a) Annealing: Annealing isbasicallyknown as metal softening
process in which the metal heated upto its critical
temperature or 30°-50°C aboveits critical temperature and
then allows to cool at a specific rate like in full annealing
process metal allowed to get cool in furnace. Normally at
the rate of 10°-30°C per hour decrement of temperature of
furnace.
Annealed is done for one of the following purpose:-
(a) To reduce hardness.
(b) To relive internal stresses.
(c) Toimprove machinability.
(d) Tofacilitate further coldworking byrestoring ductility.
(e) To produce the necessary microstructure having
desired mechanical, magnetic and other properties.
Types of annealing process:
(a) Full annealing: It is defined as the steel to austenite
phase and then cooling slowly through the
transformation range when applied to steel. Full
annealing is called as annealing.
(b) Box annealing: Annealing a metal or alloy in a
sealed container under condition that minimize
oxidation. The material is packed with cast iron chips,
burnt charcoal. It is also called as black annealing or
pot annealing.
(c) Bright annealing: Annealing in a protective medium
is to prevent surface discoloration is called bright
annealing. The protective medium is obtained by the
use of an inert gas, such gas, argon or nitrogen or by
using reducing gas atmosphere.
(b) Normalizing: Normalizing: Steel is normalized by
heating 50 to 60°C (90 to 110°F) into the austenite-phase
field at temperatures somewhat higher than those used
by annealing, followed by cooling at a medium rate. For
carbon steels and low-alloy steels, normalizing means air
cooling. Many steels are normalized to establish a
uniform microstructure and grain size. The faster cooling
rate during normalizing results in a much finer
microstructure, which is harder and stronger than the
coarser microstructure produced by full annealing. Steel is
normalized to refine grain size, make its structure more
uniform, make it more responsive to hardening, and to
improve machinability. When steel is heated to a high
temperature, the carbon can readily diffuse, resulting in a
reasonably uniform composition from one area to the next.
The steel is then more homogeneous and will respond to

complete hardening and selected portion hardening. Even
heat treated parts can be skin hardened through this
process.Alloyshaving Chromium,Aluminium,Molybdenum
and Vanadium responds best by this process. This process
can be achieved by using gas nitriding and salt bath
nitriding. But in both process, steel is heated below critical
temperature. But this process is comparatively slower than
other hardening process. This process is mostly used for
hardening drills remains and milling, cutting tool in which
the hardness at this shank is normally required less than
this cutting edge.
(h) Cyaniding: This is also a case hardening process which
is used for low and medium carbon steels. In this process,
carbon and nitrogen absorbed at surface which cause the
hardness at the surface only. In this process, steel is
heated in between range of 800°-950°C temperature in a
molten salt bath. The types and proportion of cyanide salt
in preparing the molten salt bath depends upon the
amount of carbon contents needed at the metal surface.
Mostly a mixture of sodium cyanide, sodium chloride and
sodium carbonate is used in equal ratio. The hardness
induced in the case of metal is due to the formation of
compounds of nitrogen and carbon absorbed at surface. In
this process, a low temperature is used normally 120°-
1500C.
(i) Induction Hardening: Induction hardening is a form of
heat treatment in which a metal part is heated by induction
heating and then quenched. The quenched metal undergoes
a martensitic transformation, increasing the hardness and
brittleness of the part. Induction hardening is used to
selectively harden areas of a part or assembly without
affecting the properties of the part as a whole. Induction
heating is a non-contact heating process which utilises the
principle of electromagnetic induction to produce heat
inside the surface layer of a work-piece. By placing a
conductivematerial into a strong alternating magnetic field
electrical current can be made to flow in the material
thereby creating heat due to the I2R losses in the material.
In magnetic materials, further heat is generated below the
curie- point due to hysteresis losses. The current generated
flows predominantly in the surface layer, the depth of
this layer being dictated by the frequency ofthe alternating
field, the surface power density, the permeability of the
material, the heat time and the diameter of the bar or
material thickness. By quenching this heated layer in water,
oil or a polymer based quench the surface layer is altered
to form a martensitic structure which is harder than the
base metal. Itis fastest method ofhardening in which metal
contain medium or high cast are hardened by this process.
In this process, metal are placed under a high frequency
(2000 cycles/sec) alternating current. When this high
frequency current is passed through the metal, the carbon
carbon is precipitated out from martensite to form a carbide
called epsilon. This leads to the restoration of BCC
structure in the matrix. Further, heating between 200°C-
350°C enables the structure to transformation to ferrite and
cementite.
Classification of Tempering: The tempering process may
be classified as given below:-
(i) Low temperature tempering: In this temperingprocess,
steel is re-heated after hardening between temperature
range 150°C-200°C. This process mostly used for
tempering carbon tool steel, low alloy steel, surface
hardened parts and measuring tools, etc. This process
increase toughness and ductility and reduce internal
stress.
(ii) Medium temperature tempering: In this process,
hardened steel is re-heated between temperature range
300°-450°C and retained at this temperature for a
specific time and then allowed to cooled down at room
temperature. In this process, martensite and austenite
transformed into secondary troosite, which causes
increase toughness and reduction of hardness. This
process also improves ductility but reduce its strength.
This process is used for the steel which supported to
used with impact load like hammer, coils and cheals,
etc.
(iii) High temperature tempering: In this process,
hardened steel is re-heated between temperature range
500°-650°C, then holding for a certain time and after
which allows to cooled down at room temperature.
This process removes internal stress completely and
provide a micro structure which have good strength
and toughness. This process is mostly used for crank
shafts, gears and connecting rods etc.
(f) Case Hardening: This process is also known as
Carburising. In this process, the hardness is increased
only at outer surface. In this process, steel is heated upto
red hot and then immersed into high carbon reason which
causes a production of surface having high carbon
contents. This results increase hardness surface. The
carbon is infused into surface of steel by diffusion from
carbon monoxide gas at elevated temperature ranges
between 870°-950°C due to having carbon contents at
surface of steel. The hardness increased up to limited
depth of steel and below this outer surface, a soft and
tough core maintained automatically. Case hardening is
any of several processes applicable to steel that change
the chemical composition ofthe surface layer by absorption
of carbon, nitrogen, or a mixture of the two and, by
diffusion, create a concentration gradient on the surface.
The processes commonly used are carburizing and quench
hardening, cyaniding, nitriding, and carbonitriding.
(g) Nitriding: It is also a case hardening but carbon is
replaced by Nitrogen. Itprovides equal advantage for both
carbon-alloy steel and other alloys steel. It can be used for

Metal casting is a process in which molten metal is poured (in
liquidstate)into a mould.There moltenmetal acquiresthe desired
shape and size. Which is made previously in the mould after
some time when metal gets solidified it is removed from mould.
Casting is the oldestmethod of shaping metal and non-metals. In
earlier time mostpopular casting method was "Sand Casting" in
which desired shape article is pressed in to sand and when the
article removed from sand it leavesan impression or cavityin the
sand. Which is exactly according to the shape of article after
removal of article molten metal is poured in this cavity formedin
the sand. The article used to make cavity in sand is known as
pattern and the cavitymade in sand isknown as mould.
Advantage of Casting
1. Casting is a cheap,fastand economicalmethod ofproducing
any shape ofmetal and Non-metals.
2. Large and heavy structures can be made easily by casting
method.
3. Foridenticalmassproductioncastingisverysuitablemethod.
4. Duetoproductionofminimumscrap,wastageofrawmaterial
isminimised.
5. Complex shape can be made easily by casting method with
low production cost and in less time investment.
6. Casting is suitable formetal, non-metal and alloys.
7. Insertionof anyobjectofsamematerial ordissimilarmetal is
easier in casting method.
8. Somemechanical propertiesachievedin casting processare
distinct from any other manufacturing method.
Someimportant terms
(A) Mould. (B) Pattern (C) Core.
(A) Mould: Itmay be defined as a shape made up of sand, Die
Steel, Ceramic, and rubber etc. in which desired cavity is
produced with the help ofsuitable pattern. According to the
material used, in making cavity,the material can represent
the mould's name like,ifsand is primematerialthen it willbe
known as sand mould, and rubber mould if rubber is prime
material in masking mould. Sand mould may further be
classified in followingtypes :

part design, maintain proper hardness and doing
tempering on proper timing.
(c) Soft Spots: This defect may arise due to localised
de-carburisation, heterogeneous initial structure or
formation of bubbles during quenching process. This
defect may be controlled by quenching properly in
suitable solution and ensuring the heterogeneous
structure of metal.
(d) Coarse Grain Structure Formation: This defect may
arise due to heating at elevated temperature to a long
period then specified. This can be controlled by
heating at specified temperature up to proper time.
(e) Shape Distortion: This defect caused by non-uniform
heating. This can be controlled by heating gradually
up to specified temperature.
(f) Holes Formation: This defect is caused due to
bubble formation during quenching which can be
controlled by carefully quenching and using specified
quenching media / solution.
contents present in metal itself increases its hardness after
passing the current. The metal itself is quenched into
liquid bath. This process takes 1-5 seconds only. This can
be done on a specific area and to whole components
normally automobile parts like crank shaft, gears and
tappet pins are hardened by this process. The depth of
hardness and degree of hardness depends upon the
voltage and frequency of current. In hardening of large
component, slower frequency current is used.
(j) Flame Hardening: In this process, a high intensity
oxy-acetylene flame is used to heat the steel. After heating
steel above critical temperature steel is quenched to air or
water bath. Jet can be used but this process is limited with
medium and high carbon steel. This process can be made
manual or fully computerised and automatic. Flame
hardening consists of austenitizing the surface of steel by
heating with an oxyacetylene or oxyhydrogen torch and
quenching immediately.A hard surface layer of martensite
forms over a softer interior core.
(k) Laser Beam Hardening: It is a surface hardening process
and almost similar to flameand induction hardening. In this
process, medium and high carbon steel is coated with
absorbtive media like Zinc or Manganese Phosphate and
then a Laser Beam is passed through that which causes
production of heat inside the metal and after passing the
laser beam, metal is quenched into water or oil bath. It is
a faster method and can be easily done on complete or
localised area ofmetal. This process can be manual or fully
automatic.
(I) Heat Treatment of Non-Ferrous Metal: The mainly used
heat treatment process for Non-ferrous metal is strain
hardening, dispersion hardening but most popular method
is age hardening / precipitation hardening.
Age Hardening: In this process, non-ferrous alloys are
heated into a single phase solid solution. On account of
their decreasing solid solubilitywith lowingthe temperature
their structure is transformed into two distinct phase. After
which these metal allows to cooled down at rapid rate
which caused structure is a super-saturated solid solution.
When this alloy metal is heating at a predetermined
temperature again the solute atoms precipitate of super-
saturated solid solution. This process results in increasing
hardness. This one of the reason due to which this
process is known as precipitation hardening also.
Defects in Heat Treatment Process: Due to some reasons,
some defects may arise during heat treatment process.
(a) Oxidation: If during heat treatment process,
atmosphere is oxidising then oxidation may occurs,
which can be prevented by controlling heating
atmosphere or using carburesing agents.
(b) Cracks: Sometime, cracks in metal during quenching,
this may happens due to having unproper designs of
object, too much hardness or delay in tempering after
quenching. This defectmay be controlled byimproving

r-Cope Pattern
When model have difficult geometrical dimensions then
patterns are made in two parts that meet along the
parting line of mould using two separate pieces allows
the mould cavities in the cope and drag to be made
separately and the parting line already determined.
(iii) Match Plate Pattern :-
A match plate pattern is similar to a split pattern except
that each half of the pattern is attached to opposite
sides ofa single plate. The plate is usually made up of
wooden material. This pattern design ensures proper
alignment of mold cavities in cope and drag and the
runner system can be included on the match plate.
Match plate patterns are used for larger production.

Solid patterns are made in single piece having simple
geometrical dimensions, it is easy to fabricate having
separately defined parting line, runner and Gate etc.
(ii) Splitpattern :-
etc. These patterns are made slightly over size, for over
weight, material so that extra metal can be used for matching
etc. Most commonly used patterns are listed below.
Patterns may be classified according to the following factors:
(a) Shape and size and casting
(b) Number of casting to be made
(c) Method of moulding to be used
(d) Parameters involved in the moulding operations
(i) Solidpattern :-
(i) Green sand mould :- The mold contains well prepared
mixture of sand, water (moisture) and binder (clay), as
name resemble green is not actually green colour but
normally natural sand used in wet condition having
suitable percentage of moisture and clay.
(ii) Skin dried mould:- Itis more expensive mould having
additional binding material with Green sand, which
enables it less collapsibility, but higher finishing and
produce better dimensional accuracy. This additional
bonding material used in this mould is dried by using
torch etc.
(iii) Dry- Sand Mould :- It is mould silica sand which is
mixed with organic binder and baked in suitable ovan.
Where its moisture content is reduced due to which it
provides lower collaspibility. These moulds are used
for better dimensional accuracy because its formation
is more time consuming. Where as additional heat and
bonding material, involvement causes reduction in
production quantity and increase in production cost.
(iv) No-Bake Mould:- The sand is mixed with liquid resin
and allowed to get hardened at room temperature.
(v) Vacuum Moulding:- (V-Process) is a variation ofthe
sand casting process for most ferrous and non-ferrous
metal in which un-bonded sand is held in the flask
with a vacuum. The pattern is specially vented so that
a vacuum can be pulled through it. A heat softened
thin sheet (0.003 to 0.008 Inch) of plastic film is draped
over the pattern and a vacuum is drawn (27-53 KPA).
A special vacuum forming flask is placed over the
pattern and is filled with a free-flowing sand. The sand
is vibrated to compact the sand and a sprue and
pouring cup are formed in the cope. Another sheet of
plastic is placed over the top of the sand in the flask
and a vacuum is drawn through the special flask, this
hardens and strengthens the un-bonded sand. The
vacuum is then released on the pattern and the cope is
removed. The drag is made in same way then molten
metal is poured, white cope and drag are kept under a
vacuum because plastic vaporises but the vacuum
keeps the shape of sand till the metal gets solidified.
After which vacuum is turned off and the sand runs
freely, releasing the casting.
Advantage of Vaccum Moulding Process:
1. Produced very Good Surface finish.
2. Cost of bonding material is eliminated.
3. No- Production of toxic fumes and provide excellent
permeability.
4. No - Moisture generated defect.
S. Better life of pattern because sand did not touch the
pattern surface.
Disadvantage:
1. Lowers, the production rate.
2. Takes more time hence increases production cost.
(B) Pattern: Pattern may be defined as a solid hollow shaped
item used to make cavity in the mould or we can say the
replica of shape what we desire to cast patterns are made by
various metals and non-metals depending upon the
requirement like, wood, wax, aluminium, ferrous and ceramics

(iii) Machining Allowance: Itis also known as finishing
allowance. After casting process every casting needs
some machining or finishing operations in which a
considerable amount of material needs to be removed
from casting surface to compensate the loss of material
from the surface of casting, some additional amount of
material is provided in addition of draft allowance, this
percentage of extra material over casting surface is
known as machining allowance. This allowance is
provided both inside walls and out side walls of
castings.
(iv) Shake Allowance: Before withdrawal of pattern from
mould, the pattern is wrapped all around the faces to
enlarge the mould cavity slightly which facilitates its
safe removal and causes the enlargement in mould size.
So it is desirable that the original pattern dimensions
should be reduced to account for this increase in
dimensions or we can say that shake allowance is
provided in (-ve) to the original size of pattern.
(v) Distortion Allowance: The tendency of distortion is
not common in all castings. Only castings which have
an irregular shape and some such design that the
construction is not uniform through out will distort
during cooling on account of setting up of thermal
stresses in them. Such an effect can be easily seen in
some dome shaped or 'U' shaped castings. To eliminate
this defect an opposite distortion is provided in the
pattern, so that the effect is neutralised and the desired
casting can be achieved.
Colour Coding in Pattern
Although colour coding is not accepted but the most
commonly used coding are given below.
(i) Red ~ machining surface
(ii) Black ~ un-machining surface
(iii) Yellow ~ core prints
(iv) Red strips on yellow base ~ Seats for loose pieces.
(v) Black strips on yellow base ~ Stop ofts.
(vi) No - colour ~ parting surface.
(C) Core: Core is generally made up of sand having bonding
resin in proper quantity these core's are used for making
hollow section inside the casting.
A good core must have following properties.
(a) It should have good permeability, so that gas can
easily escape during casting process.
(b) It should be made good refractory material so that it
can withstand the high temperature and pressure of
flow of molten metal.
(c) Itshould have high collapsibility i.e. it should be able
to disintegrate quickly after solidification of casting
metal.
(d) The binding material or core material should not
produce additional gases during casting process.
Classification ofCore:-
(i) Horizontal Core
(ii) Vertical core
(iii) Balanced core
Fig. Match Plate Pattern
Design of Pattern
Pattern as we know very well a master/ shape used to make
cavities in mould of desired shape and size. During pattern
designing we have to keep the following parameter in mind
as given under, like material selection for pattern making. C
patterns are made from wood, aluminium, plastic, rubber,
ceramics and Iron etc. In general, pattern making process
involves drawing making of desired object, to be made by
casting along with addition of various allowance
measurements with the dimensions. Most of the dimensional
allowances to be added in pattern making are listed below:
(i) Shrinkage Allowance: Shrinkage on solidification is
the reduction in volume caused when metal loses
temperature after casting. The shrinkage allowance is
provided to compensate the reduction in volumetric
dimensions. Aluminium permissible shrinkage
allowance is 0.013 mm- 0.01 mm.
(ii) Draft Allowance:At the time ofwithdrawing the pattern
from the sand mould. Itmay damage the edge etc. so
for making withdrawn easy, all patterns are given a
slight taper on all vertical surface i.e. the surfaces
parallel to the direction of their withdrawal from the
mould. The taper is known as draft allowance.
._______
Drag Pattern
Fig. (cope and drag pattern)
(iv) Copeand drag pattern :-
A cope and drag pattern is similar to a match plate
pattern, except that each half ofthe pattern is attached
to a separate plate and the mould halves are made
independently just as with match plate pattern. This
match plate helps in proper alignments of mould
cavities in the cope, drag and runner, etc. Match plate
patterns are used for larger production and often used
when the process is automated.

Riser is a cavity made in mold to compensate the shrinkage arises
in casting and acts as a reservoir of molten metal.
Gating: Gating design must control the phenomenon in such
a way that no part of the casting is isolated from active feed
channels during the entire freezing cycle, it is reffered to as a
directional solidification. The degree ofprogressive solidification
RISER AND GATING DESIGN
In this process molten metal loses heat to the surrounding
atmosphere and changes its state from liquid to solid, if
conductivity of mould is higher it acts as the center of nucleation
and crystal growth commences from the mold and extends towards
the center. We can say, solidification occurs by nucleation of
minute crystals or grains, which then grow under the influence of
crystallographic and thermal conditions. The size ofthese grains
get affected by the composition of alloy and its cooling rate.
During solidification heat is being extracted from the molten metal
as soon as it enters the mold. This heat is called super heat. The
latent heat of fusion is also evolved during solidification and it
must be transferred to the surrounding mold before complete
solidifications can be achieved. Thus there are three stages of
cooling i.e. liquid-solid and solid
Solidification Properties
(i) Fluidity: The ability of filling all parts ofmold cavity is known
as fluidity.
(ii) Hot cracking: During cooling process a part of casting may
be placed under tension and these tensile stresses are greater
when the metal is weak and thus ultimately metal gets cracks.
Ifthere is a relatively large reduction in temperature during
subsequent solidifications, thermal contraction may cause
cracking.
(iii) Effect ofInocculation: It is a process in which the properties
and structures of casting are enchanced by adding another
material (metal or non-metal) to the molten metal before
pounng.
SOLIDIFICATION AND COOLING
(iv) hanging over core
(v) Wire core
Core molding: Cores are made separately in a core box made up
of wood or metal. cores are made by two ways (i) manually by
hand and (ii) by using core making machines.
Characteristics of cores:
(i) Permeability: Cores are made more permeable than the mold
to achieve, good permeability. Coarse sand & fine sand in a
specific quantity are mixed with molasses.
(ii) Collapsibility:- Core should possess good collapsibility so
that it can be easily removed from the casting after
solidification without making any damage to the casting.
(iii) Strength:- Core should possess enough strength so that it
should not be de-shaped during placing in mold or during
the molten metal pouring.
(iv) Thermal Stability:-
Core material should have good thermal stability so that it
can withstand the high temperature during casting process.

CASTING DEFECfS:
(i) Un - filled section: - This happens due to insufficient metal
pouring at lower temperature than required.
(ii) Blow holes or porosity: - This defect happens, if molting
temperature is too high and non -uniform cooling on the
permeability of molding sand is low.
(iii) Shrinkage: - Some time after solidification the casting gets
reduced in size at surface or internally which is known as
shrinkage defect. Normally it happens due to improper
inside the mould, often pouring after cooling process when
molten metal gets solidified casting comes out after breaking
the mold.
Trimming: During casting process some extra material remains
attached with casting, this excess material removed from casting
is known as trimming.
(b) Die casting: - In this process cope and drag are replaced
with metal die. Molten metal is poured into cavity, made in
metal dies.
(c) Pressure - DieCasting: - In this process molten metal poured
in metal die along with a specific pressure. This pressure
application enhance casting finishing and increase
production rate.
(d) Slush Casting: - In this method molten metal is poured into
the mould and began to solidify at the cavity surface. When
the amount of solidified material is equal to the desired wall
thickness, the remaining slush is poured out the mould. As
a result slush casting is used to produce hollow part without
usmg core.
(e) Plaster Mold Casting - In this method sand is replaced with
plaster of paris is rest the process is similar to sand casting
method.
(f) Investment Casting: - In this method a mould is made of
ceramic by using a wax pattern. When molten metal is poured
into mould wax get melted and replaced by molten metal. It is
mostly used for casting of (S.S), Aluminium alloy and
magnesium alloys etc.
(g) Centrifugal Casting: - In this process mold kept rotating at
high speed and molten metal poured from centre of axis of
mould. Then molten metal due to its moment of inertia moves
towards inner wall of moving mould and due to light weight
ofimpurities present in molten metal segregated and collected
near the axis of rotation, which enables to make more pure
casting having higher accuracy and lowest impurities.
(h) Continuous Casting: - In continuous casting process molten
metal is poured from a specific height in a vertical mould.
This vertical mould kept cooling facilities so that the casting
continuously cooled down. This process is mostly used for
casting pipes, rod and sheet of brass, bronze copper,
aluminium and Iron etc.
(i) Shell mould casting: - This process is similar to sand casting
method except the molten metal is poured into an mold having
thin walled shell created from applying a sand resin mixture
around a pattern. The pattern used in this method can be re-
use to make many mold. This process is mostly used for
casting carbon steel, alloy steel etc.
Steps involved in sand casting:
(i) Mould making: - In the process expendable sand is packed
around the pattern, which is a replica of the external shape
of the casting when the pattern is removed, the cavity that
will form is used for casting. Any internal feature of casting
that cannot be made by pattern that is made by separate
cores.
(ii) Clamping: - Once the mould has been made, it must be
prepared for the pouring of molten metal. So the surface of
the mould cavity is first lubricated to facilitate the removal
of the casting, then the cores are positioned and the mould
halves are closed and securely clamped together. It is
essential that the mould halves remains securely closed to
prevent the loss of any material.
(iii) Pouring: This process involves pouring of molten metal in
to mould in such a way that all section ofmould fills properly.
This can be checked by rising level of molten metal in the
risers.
(iv) Cooling: This process involves cooling of molten metal
CLASSIFICA nON OF CASTING
(a) Sand Casting: In this process a cavity is made in a sand
mold by using desired pattern and then after molten metal
poured into mould. Which is after solidification known as
casting. There are two main types of sand used for moulding
Green Sand and dry sand. In green sand un-burned sand
mixed with proper amount of clay as it binds and moistens
and when the sand is mixed with binding material other than
clay and moisture is known as Dry Sand.
Application ofSand Casting:
1. It is mostly used for cheapest casting process to maintain
low production cost.
2. Complex geometrical shape can be easily made by the
process.
3. Sand casting method is used for producing very heavy parts
like fly wheel of power press, Railway wheel etc.
4. Many large structures are produced by this method like
engine blocks, engine manifolds cylinder heads and
transmission cases etc.

Metal attains plastic state when an external force is applied
along its length accross of its cross-section. Which results
in increase in its dimensions at right angle to the direction
of applied force with a corresponding reduction in its length,
parallel to the direction of applied force. Normally bar stocks
are used for being jumped by a desired amount so that this
part can be given a desired shape through the jumped further
operations. The jumping operation can be performed in any
localised area i.e., the particular part in the bar shape, where
said increase in cross-section is desired is heated till it
acquires a plastic state. Than the length which do not
required to be jumped cooled abruptly by quenching in
water, and the hot portion is placed under suitable load.
This operation may carried out manually ifthe work peice is
small enough to handle and when heavy force is required
(such as in large work peice) heavy hammer is used called
as sledge hammer. The objects of cooling the bar length,
which is not to bejumped out is two fold. Firstly to localised
the reduction in length to the desired extent and secondly
to prevent the bar from bending during up setting due to
heavy blows.

(i) Hot forging: Hot forging may be defined as a process in
which metal is heated up to its plastic state and then a
suitable external pressure is applied to achieve desired shape
and size. The deformation of shape of metal depends on the
type of force applied on it. If the force is applied along its
length the cross-section will increase on the cost ofreduction
of its length. Similarly if the force is applied against its length
the length will increase and the cross-sectional area will
decrease. Forging may be used to bend the work piece.
Without change its length along with using suitable die-
and punch etc. In forging process external force may be
applied by hand hammer, power operated hammers, and
presses etc. If the force applied bymannually by hammers
this process is known as smithy process.
Classification of forging: Forging may be classified into
following types
(a) Upsetting
(b) Drawing out or drawing down
(c) Bending
(d) Setting down
(e) Forge Welding
(a) Up setting: In this process cross-section of work piece is
increased with corresponding reduction in its length.

happens due to improper cooling, and over ramming of

(v) Mis-Run: - When molten metal fails to reach at every section
of mold then some sections remains un-filled known as mis-
run.
(vi) Cold shut: - When molten metal comes from two or more
paths into the mould and during meeting these different
flow if not fuse together properly is known as cold shut.
(vii) Inclusions: - Any un-wanted metallic / non-metallic waste
present in casting is known as inclusion thus inclusions
may be slag of sand oxides or gases etc.
(viii)Cuts and washes: - These defects occurs due to erosion of
sand from the mould or core surface by molten metal.
(ix) Shot metal: - This defect appears in the form of small metal
shots embedded in the casting which are exposed on the
fractured surface of the latter. It happens when the molten
metal is poured into mould particularly when its temperature
is relatively lower. Itmay splash the small particle separated
from the main stream during the spray and thrown ahead
and solidified quickly to form the shots.

The process ofextrusion consists of corresponding a metal
inside a chamber to force it out through a small opening
calleddie.Anyplasticmaterial canbeextrudedsuccessfully.
Most of the process used for extruding metals are
hydraulically operated horizontal presses. A large number
ofextruded shapes are in common use, such as tubes, rods,
structural shapes and lead coveredcables. The principle of
operation are the same forboth hot and cold extrusion, and
choice of one ofthese is governed by factors like the metal
to be extruded, thickness of extruded section size of raw
material being used, capacity of press, and type of product
etc.billetsof 125mm to 175mm in diameter and 300to 675
mm lengthare in generalusedasrawmaterial forextrusions
of steel needs adequate lubrication around the billet. This
is done by providing a coating of fine glass powder over
the surface ofhot billet. The process ofextrusion suits best
to the non ferrous metals and alloys although some steel
alloys like stain less steel are also extruded.
The extrusion process can be classified as follows
(1) Direct or forwardextrusion
(2) Indirect or backwardextrusion

and borax formild steelmelts at high temperature and
form slag containing the iron oxide, ash etc. This slag
forms a layer over the hot surface thus preventing it
from comming in further contact with air. Which the
result, further oxidation ofiron is checked.
There are three types ofweldedjoints in commonwhich are
• Butt weld:When two bare are made tojoin end to end
bywelding, such that joint formation is at right angles
to the lengths of the work piece it is known" as butt
weld.
• Scarf weld:This is alsoknown as lapweld.Itisknown
so for the reason that the ends of the metal pieces to
be joined are made to overlap each other and then
hammered.Thusthe weldformationis atan inclination
with the top and bottom faces of the joined pieces.
Also due to the distinct end preparation it is easy to
apply correct pressure by hand hammering in proper
direction.
• "V" weld: Itis also known with somany names e.g. split,
spliceor fork etc. Itis employedwhere a highly strong
weldedjoint isneededparticularlyin heavyworkwhere
the greater thickness ofthe job enables the formation
of =v: easily, to ensure perfect joining of metals the
scarf of one piece should be made rough byproviding
steps on it.
(b) Drawing out or drawing down: This process is exactly a
reverse process to that ofup setting orjumping in the sense
that, contrary to the latter, it is employedwhen a reduction
in thickness or width on is desired with a corresponding
increase in its length. In this process specificshape oftools
also required to achieve the desire shape, known as pair of
sewageand fullerthe selectionofthe abovetoolsisgoverned
by the shape of the cross-section of the stock, the Rod or
bar heated up to pre-determined length to the plastic state
followedby the coolingofthe unwanted length fordrawing
by sudden quenching in water. Ifthe bar is ofrectangular or
square cross section it is laid flat on the anvit face and
hammered bythe peen of cross-peenhammers bythe limit.
Ifthe reduction is to be done both in width as well as in
thickness the operation is repeated by turning the bar at
90°. The desired result can be more quickly achieved by
keeping the bar on the edge or hom of the anvit and then
drawing.
(c) Bending: Bending of bars, flats and other simillar stock
material is usually done in smithy shop, this can be doneto
produce different types of bent shapes such as angle, ovals
and circles etc.Anydesired angle or curvature can be made
through this operation. For making a right angle bend that
particular portion of stock, which is to be subjected to
bending, is heated and jumped on the outer surface. This
provides an extra material at that particular place which
compensates for the elongation ofthe outer surface due to
hammering during bending. This operationis carriedout on
the edge of a rectangular block. After bending, the outside
bulging is finished by means of a flatter and the inside by
means of a set hammer, this process can be made by
mannually or by using forging. Machine along with jigs
and fixture.
(d) Setting down: Inthe operationthrough which the rounding
ofa comer is removed, to make it square, bymeans ofa set
hammer. By putting the face of the set hammer over the
round portion, formedby fullering or bending ofthe comer
and hammering it at the top reduction in thickness takes
place resulting in a sharp and square comer. Finishing is
the operation through which the un-evenness of a flat
surfaceisremovedbymeans ofa flatteror a sethammer and
round stems are smoothened to the correct shape and
required size by means of sewage after the job has been
shaped roughly to the finished size through other
operations.
(e) Forge welding: In this processtwopeiceof simillar metals
are heated properlyup to sufficientwelding heat andjoined
together by application of external heat, two important
considerations are always made in order to get a sound
weldedjoint.
(i) Proper end preparation of the metal peices to bejoint
(ii) Rising the temperature of the prepared ends to the
correctweldingheat. The surfacestobejoined together
should be quite clean i.e., they should be free from
scale, dirt or ash. Otherwise this presence will lead to
thefailureofthejoint. Inadditiontothisa fluxisapplied

difficulties. This flux usually stand for wrought iron

Classification fo Welding According to Application of
Pressure
(a) Non-pressure welding/fusion welding: In this process of
weldingthe temperatureofjoining edgeofmetalsare heated
Welding is a process ofjoining two or more than two similar or
dissimilar metals together with or without use of pressure, and
filler materials. Without use of external heat we get success in
welding ofGold and Silver onlytill today but in future the use of
temperature in welding may be reduced considerably. Welding
process may be classified as follows:
(i) Homogeneous welding: In this method two similar metals
are joined together by welding and use of filler of same
material ifrequired. For example,mild steelwith mild steel
welding this process is also known as autogenous welding.
(ii) Hetrogeneous welding: In this method, welding is done
with two dissimilar metals and the filler metal used in this
processis usuallykept, oflow meltingpointthan the parental
metals. For example copper and brass, mild steel and cast
iron etc.
WELDING
The most common coldextrusionsprocessis impactextrusion, in
which soft and ductile metal is used to formed various product
like tubes for tooth paste, lotions, shaving cream, paints and
condenser cans etc. The raw material used is in slug formhaving
been either turned from a bar or punched out of a strip. The
operation is performed with the help of a punch and a die. The
prepared slug is in the die and struck from top by the punch
operating at high pressure and speed. The metal flows up along
the surfaceofthe punch, forming a cup shapedcomponent.When
the punch moves up. Compressed air is used to separate the
component from the punch. In the mean while a fresh slug is fed
into the die. The production rate is quite high about
60 componentsper minute. Mostlywall thickness produced from
0.7 mm to 0.1 mm but onlysoftand ductilematerial canproduced
bythis processlikelead,tin, aluminium,zinc,and respectivealloys
etc. Uniform diamensions, low scrap production and high
production capacity is main advantage ofthis process.Although
Die and punch are used in like drawing process but its high
production rate, and tolerance of the order of ± 0.762 mm up to
12.7mm diameter and± 0.127 mm upto 25 mm dia can be easily
obtained.
COLD EXTRUSION
The rod is fed up to stops through straightening rolls, cut to size
and pushed into the header die. The rod is gripped in the die and
punch operates on the projectedpart to apply pressure and form
the head. The bending operation may be completedin a single or
two strokes. Automatic machines for producing bolts and screw
are also available in which all the operations like cutting stockto
size, shank extrusion, heading trimming and threading etc. are
performed simultaneouslyto produce finished components. The
processis also successfullyadoptedforproducingrivetsand nails.
This is a cold up-setting process adopted for large scale
production of small cold up set parts from wire stock. A few
examples of such parts are small bolts rivets, screws, pins nails
and small machine parts. Small balls for ball bearings are also
made by this method.
The machine, tool, and dies are almost simillar as in hot forging.
COLD FORGING
Fig. BackwardExtrusions
Advantage and limitations of hot extrusion
1. Dueto application ofhigher pressure a verydense structure
is produced.
2. Bettersurfacefinish isproducedhaving higher dimensional
tolerence.
3. Low tool cost involves and fast in production rate.
4. Most suitableforproduction ofparts having uniform cross-
section having fine surface finish and high dimensional
accuracy.
5. Excessesivelength object is creak problem in handling the

It is a usual practiceto leavethe last nearly 10%length ofbilletas
un-extruded. This portion is known as discard which contains
the surfaceimpurities ofbillet.
Indirect Extrusion: As shownin followingfigureram orplunger
used is hollow type, and as it pressed the billet against the back
wall of the close chamber, the metal is extruded back in to the
plunger. As the billet does not move inside the chamber, there is
not friction between them. As such, less force is needed in this
methodin compressiontothe directextrusion.Amore complicated
type of equipment is required because plunger becomes weak
due to the reduction in the effective area of cross-section and
difficulty is exprienced in supporting the over heating extruded
part.
part will depend upon the size of the billet and cross-section of
the die. The extruded part is then cut to the required length. The
overhanging extruded length is fedis to a long support calledthe

The work piece is to be weld placed between these electrodes
and a high ampere current is passed through them for a limited
time till the metal get fused at the place of welding and then
appliedsufficientpressurewhichmakecompletethe weldingjoint.
This process is mostly used in thin metal sheet welding like
domestic utensils, cabinets like structure etc.
Important Factors Related to Spot Welding
1. Welding pressure control: For good welding a sufficient
pressure application for enough time is veryimportant and
this pressure applied for welding is known as welding
pressure. This pressure should be applied on job on
accurate time of plastic state of metal. Time for pressure
application depends upon the thickness and properties of
metals to be welded.
2. Time management: It is the total time consumed while
completing different stages of welding and it is known as
cycletime also. This cycletime must be adjusted in such a
manner so that the metal should acquire sufficient plastic
stage required for good welding and cut the supply
automatically after completing the heating stage. Time
control may be managed by different methods like das pot
circuitbreaker,electroniccircuitetc.
3. Surface penetration: The surface to be welded should be
free from all/dust or any un-wanted materials. So that the
penetration of welding joint should be max, min and weld
canmake proper.
4. Electrodes: The electrodes must possess mainly these
characteristics i.e. high electrical and thermal conductivity
and it should have sufficient mechanical strength to
with stand high pressure to which they are subjected.These
are made water cooled. The surface of electrodes must be
easily cleanable so that the resistance between the surface
of electrodes and work metal should be kept minimum.
Electrodes are mainly made up of copper alloys with
molybdenum and tungsten.
Spot welding process may further be classified into following
types depending on their application.
(a) Rocker arm type: Themachineusedin spotweldingprocess
consists ofone fixedelectrode and other movableelectrode
which is mounted on a rocker arm and moved in up and
down direction by mechanical arrangements. In some
machinemechanicalarrangementispoweredwithhydraulic
systemto make more automated system.
(b) Press type: In this types machines are used in heavy or
thick sheet welding and movable electrode is operated
electrically or by compressedair.
(c) Portable Guns: In manyplaces it is notfeasibletotransport
hence forthat purpose a portable machine is required. This
Portable Gun carries two electrodes and the transformer is
supported generally on overhead rails. Mainly it is used in
automobile industry.
(B) Seam Welding

shape for individual spot may be of any shape like round or
rectangular. In this process, two circular disc shaped electrodesFig. Spotwelding

(b) Pressure welding: In this process of welding two edge to
be joined are heated up to their plastic state and then
sufficientpressure is applied till the weld is performed. But
no-fillermaterialisusedcommonlyinthereweldingprocess.
For example-Forgewelding, Resistancewelding etc.
Classification of Welding on the Basis of Heat Source
(a) Chemical welding: According to chemical method, heat is
produced by oxidation or may be burning of coal and gas
etc. Heat is also produced by chemical reaction of two or
more saltstogether.For exampleiron oxide and aluminium
powder produced heat by chemical reaction. This method
of heat generation are employed in forge welding, gas
weldingand thermit welding.
(b) Electric welding: These proceses use electrical energy to
produce heat required to melt the work piece. Electrical
energy based joining process may further classified as
follows:
(i) Electric arc welding: In an open circuit when
resistance of air gap between two terminals of
conductors is less than the quantity of current/voltage
carrying acrossthem, the electronswilljump fromone
terminal to another.This is calledjumping ofelectrons
and due to this arc a high temperature generates at
bothterminals which is about3700°C-4000°C.
(ii) Resistance welding: In this method heat is produced
when sufficient quantity of current is passed through
a conductor having proper resistances. For example
spot welding, projection welding etc.
(iii) Induction welding: In this methodheat isproducedby
use of high frequency current to produce sufficient
eddy current in the workpiece to be weld.
(c) Mechanical method: This methodis rarelyused inmodem
practice because the heat production in this method is very
low as compared to energy applied as heat produced by
friction or heavyblow/impact load etc.

This method of welding involves the use of stored electrical energy
either in reactors, capacitors or storage batteries etc.
In percussion welding the heat for welding is secured
simultaneously over the complete area of abutting surface from
an arc produced by rapid discharge of stored electrical energy
followed immediately by application of pressure.
Percussion welding permits welding harden steels without
affecting heat treatment and dissimilar metals can be weld
successfully like steel with Mg etc.
Fig.Resistance flash welding
Due to this small gap, a flash developed between the ends which
produce a high heat at both ends and metal at both ends gets
melted, after this melting sufficient pressure is applied on movable
clamp and both ends get fused and welding joint gets completed.
The flash developed at the ends of work piece only on a small
part of it, so comparatively less electric current consumed. It is
more faster process then the resistance butt welding and no facing
at ends of metal required in this method. During welding, slug
and remaining molten metal comes out from the weld joint, so
weld joint made by this method is more stronger than resistance
butt welding joint.
These resistance butt and flash welding processes are limited on
the capacity of clamping size of welding machine and the material
coming out from the joints need extra machining etc. which may
increase production cost of welding.
PERCUSSION WELDING
Fixed clampMovable clamp
Work Piece
In resistance butt welding the metal to be weld should have equal
cross section and properly faced at their respective ends. For
welding wires and rods up to 12.7 mm diameter the machine may
be used as spring operated and for larger diameter high pressure
is mostly applied hydrauliceley or pneumatically. Resistance butt
welding may be used to increase length of pipes, rodes, wires and
bars of highly conductive material like copper, brass and aluminium
etc.
(E) Resistance Flash Welding
It is almost similar to resistance butt welding except that it is
operated comparatively on less current. In this method, current is
switched on before abutting the ends of bar etc. and then the
movable clamp is transported towards the fixed clamp containing
another metal piece maintaing small gap between both mating
ends.

Fig.Line diagram of Seam welding
The machine used in seam welding is almost similar to spot welding
except it contains circular disc shaped electrodes attached with
revolving mechanism between two circular disc like electrodes
one powered by rotating force is known as drive and
another kept movable is known as driven. The pressure applied
on driving wheel electrode by hydraulically or phenumatically.
The seam welding is mostly used for metal having sufficient
electrical resistivity. For example mild steel, tin plates and many
dissimilar metals like steel with brass and bronze.
Seam welding may be further classified as circular type,
longitudinaltype, universaltypeandportabletype.
(C) Projection Welding
This welding is almost similar to spot welding except of having
any projection on both faces of electrodes. So it is most effectively
used in mass production of multi point spot welding in single
stroke as desired projection.
(D) Resistance Butt Welding
Resistance butt welding has similar working principle of welding
as in spot welding except that electrodes are in clamp shape in
which one clamp is fixed type and another is movable type. The
job to be weld are normally bars, pipes, wires etc. One piece to be
weld kept in fixed clamp and other clamped in movable clamp.
Both metal pieces are faced (finished at ends) properly. Then
movable clamp containing working metal (steel pipe) is so adjusted
that both ends meet together which are to bewelded. After properly
meeting ends of metal ,the current is switched to till corresponding
ends of metals are reached to the fusion point.
Continuous line
of welding joint
are used out of which one is kept moving and other kept only
movable but not joined with any moving arrangement. The work
piece is placed between these electrodes and current is passed
through these electrodes. This current carrying electrode when
rotates the work piece moved forward and a continuous line of
spot welding performed.

Fig. Different weaving styles
As per requirement of joint, there are different weaving
styles as shown in above figure.
Arc length: Arc length may be defined as the distance of
electrode tip from work metal during welding process.
Actually it is better known by practices about the correct
length of Arc. The distance between the electrode tip and
work metal depends upon the voltage and current used for
various welding process. Normally about 3 mm distance is
assumed as correct distance, less than 2 mm is counted as
short Arc length and above 3 mm upto 6 mm is known as
long Arc length.
Blow holes: It is a type of defect formed during welding
process due to presence of any impurity or air bubbles or
any space remains un-filled by molten metal during welding
process.
Buckling: It is also a type of defect. When work metal is
twisted or deshaped in un-wanted direction during welding
the process is known as buckling.
Hard facing: Hard facing may be defined as the process of
hardening the surface by welding process.
Heat affected zone: During welding process some time weld
metal looks separated from work metal, it happens due to
improper heating. This effect is called Heat affected zone or
we may say the place had been effected by improper welding
heat.

generally happens in D.C. arc welding due to having fixed
polarity. Arc blow generally occurs in three directions
forward, backward and side.
Arc crater: Itmay be defined as the penerat ions of arc in
base metal, it depends upon arc length, electrode width and
thickness of base metal.
Spatter: Molten metal dispersed around the welding beads
in small drops form is known as spatters.
Chipping: Removing the spatters and slage etc. formed on
welding bead on metal surface during welding is known as
chipping. The slage is formed as a by-product due to use of
coated electrode in welding process.
Edge preparation: For making different types ofjoint, some
side of work metal has to be grinded in specific shape and
size. The grinding at edge/side of work piece is known as
edge preparation.
Weaving of electrodes: This term is related with forward
motion of welding electrode on the surface of welding plane.
Weaving means tilting of electrode simultaneously along
with forward motion of electrode. This is used for increasing
width of deposition of molten metal over weld.

5. Polarity: This term is mainly associated with D.C. arc
welding because, D.C. current has fixed polarity i.e. + ve
and - ve terminal and for the A.C. they interchanged at
every cycle. It may be classified as follows.
(i) Straight polarity: Work piece made positive terminal
and the electrode is made negative terminal, it is used
for more thick plates etc.
(ii) NegativepolaritylReverse polarity: Workpiece is made
negative terminal and electrode is made positive
terminal, it is used for thin plates welding.
The polarity have a considerable effect in welding because
heat generated at positive terminal is much more than the
negative terminal. Heat generated at positive terminal is
about 2/3rd higher than negative terminal.
6. Arc blow: Itmay be defined as the deviation of arc during

In this method no external pressure is applied, only the metal to
be welded are heated up to welding temperature and a pool of
molten metal fills the gap in between the joints, then these joints
allow to cool in air and weld get completed.
In some types of electric arc welding an additional filler material is
applied known as electrode and heat is produced by electric Arc
about 3400°C. At initial stage electrode requires potential about
60 - 100 volt and in running condition when a regular arc is
produced, it requires only 15 - 45 volt normally to maintain the
welding operation.
Important Terms Related with Electric Arc Welding
1. Open circuit voltage: This voltage may be called the voltage
at electrode when no Arc is formed and machine is in
switched on condition generally it remainsant 60 -100 volt.
2. Arc voltage: This voltage may be defined as the voltage of
an electrode on electrode when regular Arc is formed during
welding operation.

and total current supplied to machine.
ELECfRIC ARC WELDING
This method is also known as pulsating welding, it is applicable
to spot welding, seam welding and butt welding processes. etc.
Pulsating welding process consists of applying the current in a
series of impulses which may be a fraction of cycle or no. of
cycles. This process has certain advantage, for example more
thicker materials can be easily welded with same equipments
increase electrode life and spettering of welding reduced
considerably.

Metal Arc Welding
The basic principle of metal arc welding is the development of
electric arc between the metal electrode and work metal.
The metal electrode (bare or coated) having sufficiently high
ampere current when kept at proper distance to job an electric arc
is developed or we can say the high ampere current value over
come to the resistance offered by air gap between the electrode
and job having different polarity of current. And a certain amount
of electrons jump over the work metal surface from electrode which
produced a high temperature near about 3400°C. This high
temperature is utilised in melting the work metal up to molten
stage at joining points and the electrode also melts
simultaneously. Melting of work metal at joining make a pool of
molten and alongwith in the molten filler metal cover this pool of
metal. This covering of molten electrode over pool of molten metal
is known as " welding bead".
Electrical Energy:
Both A.c. and D.C. electrical energy are widely used in arc welding
process. Both have some advantages and disadvantages which
regulate the use of particular electrical energy for a specific
welding. Use of electrical energy also depends on the material of
work metal properties of material to be weld like thickness of
metal etc.
17. Padding: This is the process of making number oflayers of
metal on a used part of metal to increase its dimensions.
18. Penetration: It may be known as depth of fusion during
welding process.
19. Slag: When a flux coated electrode is used in welding
process then a layer of flux material is collected over welding
bead which contains the impurities of weld material. This
layer is known as slag. It is removed by chipping of weld.
Classification of Electric Arc Welding
(A) Metal arc welding: In this welding process the arc is made
between work metal and electrode (may be bare or coated
electrode). Base electrode is made up of same material but
using it having certain disadvantages such as welded
surface may be subjected to oxidation. To prevent the
oxidation of welding surface, coated electrodes are used.
(B) Carbon arc welding: This process is mainly employed with
D.C. supply only due to having specified polarity in D.C.
supply. A carbon electrode with negative polarity produce
arc when close to work metal connected with positive
polarity current.
Straight polarity connections are made to prevent carrying
over of carbon contents over metal surface during carbon
electrode fusion. Otherwise deposition of carbon contents
may result in a brittle and bad weld.
Carbon arc welding is mostly for steel sheet and casting
etc. Electrode holders consist of magnetic coil which guide
the Arc. This welding process is operated manually or by
machine or both.

flame of suitable gas combustion. It consists of a flow of any
suitable gas under specific pressure which gives a flame after
burning in presence of oxygen etc.

SPECIAL WELDING TECHNIQUIES
Some of the special welding techniques are given as follows :
(a) TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas welding):
It is also known as Gas Tungsten Arc welding (GTAw).
This process utilizes a non - consumable tungsten
electrode that provides a very intense current to the
welding arc. This welding arc provides the required heat to
melt the metal. This electric arc is struck between a non -
consumable electrode and the metal work piece. The
tungsten and weld puddle arc given a protective enviroment
and also cooled with the help of an inert gas (eg. argon). A
welding rod is also ted at joints alongwith filler material
and melted with the base metal.
In this method ofjoining metals, particularly in the shape of sheet
thin wire form, or thin wire with thin sheet like electronic part with
PCB. In this method a low melting filler material is used and no
fusion takes place in work piece. These filler metal used in this
process is known as solder. These are made in various composition
depending upon the application and requirement of strength of
joint. Some important compositions are as follows:
1. Tin 67% : lead 33%
2. Tin 50% : lead 50%
3. Tin 30% : lead 67%
In some process of soldering alloy of copper and zinc to which
silver is also added sometimes is known as hard solder. Germal
silver, used as a hard solder for steel in an alloy of copper, zinc
and nickel, in general the classification of solder in the above two
catagories is according to their melting point. Soft solders usually
melt at a temperature below 350°C and hard solder above 600°C
the operation performed by using a soft solder is known as soft
soldering and when using a hard solder is known as hard
soldering. In this process work piece is cleaned properly and
than a solder ion tool is used in heated condition, which melts the
solder and then a suitable flux is applied to joining point. This flux
works to prevent the formation of oxidation. Normally zinc chloride
is used as soldering flux. The soldering tool is made up in two
types one is total iron made which is used by heated in furnace
and another is copper tiped placed between electrical elements
and the tip is heated electrically.
Brazing: Brazing is almost similar to the joining process of
soldering except hard solder material is used in place of soft solder
and work piece is heated up to red hot in brazing but in soldering
process work piece remains cools only soldering material is melted
and spreaded over the work piece to make soldering. But in brazing
process work piece is heated up to red hot condition and then
after hard solder material is allowed to melt with flux over the joint
to be weld. So that solder material get melted and filled the small
gap between the joint of work piece to be brazed.

3. Oxidising flame: It can be achieved by increasing
percentage of oxygen in natural flame. It is generally used
with brass welding.
Common Difficulties in Flame Formation
1. Breaking offlame: Looks like burning gas with maintaining
some distance from tip of welding torch. It can be rectified
by reducing pressure of gas etc.
2. Flickering offlame: In this fault, flame shows flickering. It
happens due to increase in moisture contents in acetylene
and it can be removed by removing moisture contents from
acetylene gas.
3. Popping: In this fault as usual sound like pit-pit comes from
welding torch. It can be rectified by regulating the pressure
of gas.
4. Back fire: In this fault flame disappear suddenly with an
abnormal sound, it happens due to following reasons.
(a) Using welding torch less than its recommended
pressure
(b) When tip of welding torch get two close to job
(c) Over heating of tip etc.
WELDING METHODS
1. Leftward welding: In this process most ofheat is absorbed
by filler material rod so it is preferred in welding thin upto 6
mm thick sheet.

(a) Slag inclusions:
Various types of oxides, fluxes and electrode material are
trappedin the weldingzone.Duetothis trapping, inclusions
are produced. These inclusion can be removed bygrinding
process or any other suitable mechanical process.
(b) Under-cut:
It can be defined as the notch which is formed due to the
melting away the base/parent metal at the toe ofthe weld.
It generally increases the stressand also reduces the fatigue
strength of the material. It can be prevented by cleaning
the metal before welding. It can be repaired with smaller
electrode.
(c) Porosity:
Porosity is devlopedwhen gas bubblesare entraped during
cooling of weld pool. It is also devloped due to chemical
reactions happened during welding. It can be controlling
the welding speed.
(d) Incomplete fusion:
It is developed when the insufficient heat is provided and
the travelling speed ofweld torch or electrode is very fast.
It is developed due to lowamperage, steep electrode angle
short arc gap, lach of pre-heat etc. It can be repaired by
removing and rewelding.
(e) Overlap: Overlaping in welding is caused due to
improper welding technique, steepelectrodeangle and fast
travel speed. It can be prevented byusing a proper welding
technique.
(f) Underfill: It is developedwhenjoint is not completely
filled bywith weld metal. It is caused by improper welding
technique. It can prevented by applying proper welding
technique for the weld type and position.
(e) Lack of fusion (f) Lack of penetration
(a) Undercut (b) Cracks
Weld defects

WELDING DEFECTS:
There are various types ofwelding defects which are given
as follows:
(iv) Itrequires minimum post weld cleaning
Applications:
It can be applied for deep groove welding of plates and
castings. All commercial metals can be welded by this
process. It also finds its application in automotive repair.
MIG can also be incorporated into robotics. Some more
applications are rebuilding equipment, overlay of wear
resistant coating, welding pipes, reinforcement of the
surface of a worn out rail road tracks.
Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding
Adavantages :
(i) It can work in all positions according to the need.
(ii) it has a high deposition rate
(iii) It requires less shilled labour
Gas Tungsten are (TIG) welding (GTAW)
Advantages :
1. It produces, perfect, precise welds with suitable
selection of proper welding rods and wires.
2. It has the capability to weld various metals. Most of
the common metals or alloyslike mild steel, Stainless
steel,titanium, aluminium and copper.
3. It uses a lesser amount of amperage as comparedwith
other processes.
4. It is a clear welding process and does not leave any
deposite over weld pead.
5. It has a high value of controlability
6. TIG welds are strong, ductile and resistant to
corrosion.
(b) MIG (MetalInert Gas welding) :
It is generally regarded as a high deposition rate
welding process. In this process, consumable
electrodes are used, which is generally in the form of
coiledwire fedby a motor drive to argon shielded arc.
Wire is consistently fed from a spool.Ahigh value of
current densities arc utilized. The diameter ofwire is
keptgenerallywithintherange of0.80mm to 2.30mm.
The consumable electrode in this process serves two
purposes (i) its acts as a source for the arc column (ii)
It also acts as the supply for the filler material. The
shielding gas in this process, forms the arc plasma,
stabilizes the arc on the metal being welded, shields
the arc and molten weld pool, and allows smooth
transfer of metal from the weld wire to molten weld
pool.

MACHINING
Machining may be defined as a process of removing extra
material from the work piece to achieve a desired shape and
dimensions by using any cutting tool. Metal may be removed
either in chips form or in fine powder form like metal removed
form is tabulated as under:
(b) Magnetic particle testing:
It is used to defect surface discontinuities in materials like
iron, cobalt, nickel and their alloys. A magnetic field is
produced into the component to be tested. The
magnitization of the component can be done directly or
indirectly. Itthe defects are present in the component after
magnetization, then the defects will create a leakage field.
After magnetization, iron particles are applied to the surface
of the component. The particles will be attracted and
aggregate near leakage fields, thus giving an indication of
defect. It is used in gas pipe welding.
(c) Ultrasonic testing: (UT)
In this testing, ultrasonic waves are propagated in the
component to be tested. The very short ultrasonic wave of
frequencies ranging from 0.1- 15MHz and upto 50 MHz are
used for the purpose of defection of internal flows or cracks.
In ultrasonic testing, electrical pulses are converted into
mechenical vibrations and the returned mechanical vibrations
arc converted into electrical pulses. Adevice called transducer
converts electrical energy into mechanical vibrations.
In this testing,a propr (Connected to ultrosonic machine)
is passed over the surface of the component to be tested.
As the wave travels through the materical, from the
defective location, the wave get reflected. The transducer
picks up the signals and CRT (cathode Ray Tube) screen
records the pulse - height pattern. The spacing between
pulses and height of pulses are interpreted for the purpose
of finding the correct location of cracks in the component.
(d) Radiographic testing: (RT)
In this testing, the hidden flows are defected by using the
ability of short wave length electromagnetic radiation to
penetrate various materials. Radiographic Testing method
reveals the surface and sub-surface defects.
(NOn NON - DESTRUCTIVE TESTING (FORWELDING)
It is defined as the process of testing the welded
components for discontineities, cracks, inclusions, spatters
penetrations, undercuts, porosity etc. In this type of test,
the component is not destructed and after testing the
component, it can be further used.
Some important kinds ofNDT (non-destructive testing)
are given as :
(a) liquid penetrant test:
It is also known as Dye penetrant test or penetrant test. It
is utilized for the purpose of detecting the surface detects,
porosities, cracks etc in welding components. In this test,
the material (component) is first cleaned and coating is
applied with a fluorscent dye solutions. The excess solution
after some time (dwell time) is removed. The bleedout is
easily detected in visible dyes while fluorescent dyes are
view with an ultrovoilet lamp.
(g) Spatter: It is developed due to high power arc,
magnetic arc blow and damp electrodes. It can be prevented
by reducing arc power, arc length and by using dry
electrodes.
(h) Incomplete penetration: Itoccurs due to low amperage,
low preheat, tight root opening, short arc length and fast
tra vel speed.
(i) cracks: The development of cracks results in the pre-
mature failure of the parts when they are subjected to
dynamic loading conditions. There arc many types of
cracks, some ofthem are given as:
(a) Longitudinal cracks
(b) transverse cracks
(c) crater cracks
(d) under bead cracks
(e) toe cracks
These cracks occur when the joint is at elevated
temperature or after the solidification of weld metal. These
can be prevented by altering the design in joint, altering
the parameters, procedures, preheating the component etc.

only one cutting edge/point. For example, turning, parting
and grooving tools for lathe machine, shaper tools and
planer tools, etc.
2. Multi Point Cutting Tools:These cutting tools contain
more than one cutting edge / points. For example, drill bit,
broach and milling cutter, etc.
On the basis of motion cutting may be broadly classified as
follows:-
1. Linear or Reciprocating Motion Tools: For example,
shaper tools, lathe tools and planer tools, etc.
2. RotaryMotion Tools:For example, drill bit, milling cutter,
grinder wheels and honning tool, etc.
Common Cutting ToolMaterials
Depending upon their physical, chemical and mechanical
properties, etc. some metal and alloys in common use are
Cutting tools may be defined as the tools required for cutting.
The cutting tools used in power operated machines are
commonly harder and having more red hot hardness than
manually operated tools. These tools are designed to acquire
more useful cutting using minimum power consumption.

CUTTING TOOLS
As shown in above figure, two types of tool shapes are used
in orthogonal cutting process. We see that the cutting edge is
rectangular and the turning face ofwork piece is made flat. This
type of cutting is known as two-dimensional cutting. while in
oblique cutting process, the tool's cutting edge is made like
triangular / inclined. This processis known as three-dimensional
cutting.

Importantfactors requiredin today'sscenarioasfollowing:
(a) Quickmetal removal.
(b) High class surface finish with economic tooling cost.
(c) Minimum idle time of machining at lower power
consumption.
Cutting Action
For cutting action, a relative motion between the tool and work
piece is necessary. The relation motion between tool and work
piece can be maintained either bykeeping workpiece stationary
and moving to tool or by keeping tool stationary and moving
work piece. The cutting action can be classified into following
types:-
1. Orthogonal cutting and 2. Oblique cutting.
2. Semi-automaticcontrol.
4. Numerical control.
On observing machine tools, we find that it contains many
levers, hand wheels, stop switches, drivers etc. All of which are
known as the control of machine tool which performs a specific
function in every machine tool. All their controls specified are
of the following types:
1. Mannual control.
3. Automatic control.
The common features of machining process are listed below:-
1. The material of tool should be harder than the work piece
to be machined.
2. The tool should be strong enough and hold rigidity on a
proper support so that it can withstand the heavy pressure
during machinery.
3. The shape of cutting tool should be designed in such a
manner that cutting edge produce maximum pressure on
work piece.
4. There is always a relative motion oftool with regard to the
work or that of the work with regard to the tool or both in
relation to each other.

more speed than common High Speed Steel tools.
5. CementedCarbide:These are generally used in sintered
tips form made up of powder metrology process. These are
directly manufactured into desired shape and size and
mounted on suitable holders (either by brazing or by
clamping, etc.). These holders are normally made by
medium carbon steel. It gives better results than satellite
and high speed steel. It can be used with four times more
cutting speed than high speed steel tools and can retain
its hardness up to 1200°C temperature.
6. Ceramics or Cemented Oxides: These are made by
applying sintering process with aluminium oxides and
boron nitride in powder form. It is also made up in
readymade tips form. Which is used after mounted on a
suitable tool holder (either by brazing or by fastening).
These can easily retain their hardness up to 1200°C
temperature and can work 2-3 times faster than tungsten
carbide tips. Sometimes these ceramics give more
satisfactory results in finishing, etc. than tungsten
carbide, etc.

mentioned below:-
1. High Carbon Steel: High carbon steel shows different
hardness with different percentage of carbon contents. It
shows BHN hardness from 400-750 with different
percentage of carbon. It contains carbon percentage 0.6%-
1.5%normally.
But high carbon steel start losing its hardness above
200°C. So, its application is limited in slow moving /
operating tools, hand tools and wood working machine
tools, etc. For example, hammers, cold chisels, files, anvil,
saws, screw drivers, center punch and razors, etc.
2. Diamond:Diamond is the hardest and brittle material but
its use is limited due to its high cost. It consists great wear
resistance but low shock resistance. So, it is used in slow
speed cutting of hard materials like glass cutting tool,
grinder wheel, dressing tool and other cutting tools, etc.
3. High SpeedSteel:Itis most commonly known cutting tool
material. It contains 18W, 4Cr, 1% V. In some tools,
additional cobalt with 2%-15% is also added to increase its
hardness up to 600°C. It contains sound ability to bear
impact loading and perform intermittent cutting.
4. Stellite:It contains40%-50% cobalt, 15%-35%chromium+
12.25%vanadium + 1%-4% carbonnormally and it consists
good shock resistance, wear resistance and hardness.

Continuous Chip Formation
Work Piece
Continuous
Chip
These type of chips formed in small pieces as shown in
figure. This type of chips are produced during machining
of brittle material like cast iron and bronze, etc.
In machining of brittle materials, shear plane gradually
reduce until the value of compressive stress acting on the
shear plane becomes too low to prevent rupture along with
as the tool advance formed in work piece. At this stage,
any further advancement of tool results in the fracture of
metal ahead of it, that's why it results in production of
segmented chips. In this type of chip formation, excessive
load has to withstand by tool which results in poor surface
finish of work piece.

Types of Chips
Chips may be classified as given under:-
1. Discontinuous or Segmental chip.
2. Continuous chip.
3. Continuous chip with built-up edge.
1. Discontinuous Chip
The grains of metal in front of cutting edge of tool start
elongation the line AB and continue to do so until they are
completely deformed along CD. The region between ABCD is
known as shear zone.

Rake angle: The angle between face of tool and a plane
parallel to its base. Ifthis inclination is towards the shank, it
is known as back rake angle or top rake angle and if measured
along with side is known as side rake angle. These angles
reduce the strength of tool's cutting edge. But along with
reducing the strength, these angles also through away the chip
from the cutting edge, which causes reduction of pressure on
cutting edge of tool.
Negative rake: When these angles are made in reverse
direction to the above are known as negative rake angle.
Obviously these angles strengthen the tools but reduce the
keenness of cutting edge but these angles are used for extra
hard surfaces and hardened steel parts, etc. and used generally
carbide tips, etc.
Lip angle: Lip angle may be defined as the angle between face
and the flank of tool. As the lip angle increases, cutting edge
will go stronger. It would be observed that since the clearance
angle kept constant, this angle varies inverse to the rake angle.
So, when the strong cutting edge is required like for harder
material, rake angle is reduced and lip angle increased.
Clearance angle: As the name resembles, this angle is made
in tool to provide clearance between job and cutting edge of
tool. If the angle is provided in side of cutting edge, it is known
as side clearance angle and if this angle is given at front of
tool it is known as front clearance angle.
Relief angle: This angle formed between the flank of tool and
a perpendicular line drawn from the cutting point to the base
of the tool.
Cutting angle: The total cutting angle of the tool is the angle
formed between the tool face and a line through the point
which is a tangent to the machined surface of the work at that
point. Obviously, its correct value will depend upon the
position of tool in which it is held in relation to the axis of the
job.
CHIP FORMA nON
Chip may be defined as a thin strip of metal removed from the
work piece as the tool progressed into work piece. Like in lathe
machine, where job is kept moving and a study tool advanced
into it, the metal's thin strip removed from work piece due to
its plastic deformation but as the length of chip increase a
stress compress the chip and after a limit, this chip gets
fractured and removed from work piece. The shearing of metal
chip formation does not, however, occurs sharply along a
straight line.

Out of these three components, force Ft is the largest and Fn
the smallest. In case of orthogonal cutting, only two component
force come into play since the value of Fn is zero in that case.
In single point cutting turning process, the component Fn- Ff
and F, can be easily determined with the help of suitable force
dynometer. Thus resultant R can then be calculated from the
followingrelationship:-

Cutting force is a very important factor in tool designing like
we consider a lathe turning tool, it is a single point cutting tool.
The force acting on the tool is the vector sum of three
component cutting force mutually at right angle. The resultant
cutting force is denoted by (R).
CUITING FORCE
Showing Built-up edge
Due to built-up edge chip formation, surface finish achieved is
rough and chance of production in crater on the surface of
work piece.
Work Piece
Built-up
Edge
As shown in figure, the chip formed in a continuous
ribbon form and breaks after a certain length. It happens
when ductile material is machined. In this chip formation,
minimum load forced on the tool's cutting edge. So, that
a better finish is achieved and minimum wear and tear
occur in tool edge.
3. Continuous Chip with built-up Edge
This type of chip is generally formed during machining
ductile material and a high friction exists at the chip tool
interface. Dueto high friction, a high temperature generates
at melting point of chip and cutting edge of tool. Due to
generation of high temperature, chip formed at high
temperature. As the cutting proceeds, the chip flows over
this edge and up along the face of tool. Periodically, a small
amount of the built-up edge separates and leaves with the
chip or embedded in the turned surface. Due to this, chip
formed is not smooth. When the tool is operating with a
built-up edge a short distance, back from the cutting edge,
the wear takes the form of cratering of tool face caused by
the extreme abrasion of chip. This type of chip formation
may be reduced by using proper coolant.

Work Done in Cutting
The work done in cutting process may be calculated by adding
work done in shearing and work done in overcoming friction
arise. If
W = total work done
Ws = work done in shearing
Wf = work done in overcome friction
Wm = (work done in cutting + work spent in feeding)
Ao = (cross-sectional area of chip before removal)
Now, assuming that there is no work loss, then total work done
must be equal to the work supplied, then total work done, we
have
W = Ws + Wf ... (1)
Now, we assume that total work supplied is used in cutting but
partly used in feeding the tool, then we have
Wm= work consumed in cutting + work spent in feeding
Wm = Fc x v,x Ft x feed velocity
Now, assuming that the Ft is very minor in comparison of Fc.
So, neglecting the feeding work, we have
Wm = Fc x Vc ... (2)
Assuming that there is no work loss, we have
Wm = W ... (3)
So, putting value in equation in (3), we have
FcxVc=Ws+Wf ... (4)
as we know,
Ws = Fs x Vs (shear force x shear velocity)
Wf = F x Vf (friction force x velocity of chip flow)

BASIC PRINCIPLES OF MACHINING
(i) Drilling:
Drilling is the process or operationused for manufacturing
circular holes. These holes are produced by a specific type
of end cutting rotating tool which is generally termed as
drill. The machine usedforthe purposeofdrilling is known
asdrill machine. The operationsperformedbydrill machine
in addition toproducingholesaretapping, reaming, boring,
counter boring, spot facing etc.
• Workingprinciple: Alarge amount of forceis exerted
bythe rotating edge ofthe drill on the workpiece and then
the hole is produced. During driling operation, the metal is
removed by shearing and extresion.

face and therefore the chip does not get hardened.
4. The chip separates from work piece at the shear plane.
Accounting all above Lee and Shaffer's had developed a
slip-line field for stress zone, in which no deformation
would occur even if it is stressed to its field point. From
all these, both of them had derived the following
relationship:
IQ= Fe x Vel·
EARNST-MERCHANT THEORY
It is based on the principle of minimum energy consumption.
It states that during cutting the metal, shear should occur in the
direction in which the energy requirement for shearing is
minimum. The other assumption made by them includes=
1. The behaviour of metal being machined is like that of an
ideal plastic.
2. At the shear plane the shear stress is maximum is constant
and independent of shear angle (<1».
They deduced the following relationship:
I~=%-~+II
LEE AND SHAFFER'S THEORY
It is a theory about analysation the process of orthogonal metal
cutting by applying theory of plasticity for an ideal rigid plastic
material. The principal assumptions made for this include:
1. The work piece material ahead of the cutting tool behaves
like an ideal plastic material.
2. The deformation of metal occurs on a single shear plane.
3. There is a stress field within the produced chip which
transmits the cutting force from the shear plane to the tool
Area (1) = Primary deformation area
Area (2) = Tool chip interface
Area (3) = Tool work piece interface
Assuming that all work done is converted into heat, then the
heat generated we have (Q), where

=> Some important milling operations in brief:
(a) Slab milling: During operation, the width of cutter
extends beyond the work piece on both of the sides.
(b) Slot milling: In this type, the width of the work piece
is more than the width of the cutter, by creating a slot.
(c) Side milling: In this operation, the milling cutters
provide machining along the side ofthe work piece.
(d) Straddle milling: In this operation, the milling cutters
provide machining along both sides of the work piece.
(e) Up - milling: Itis also known as conventional milling.
In this type, the wheel rotates in the opposite direction of
feeding. In starting, the chips produced by cutter tooth are
very thin and then increases its thickness. Tool life is short
chip length is relatively longer.
(f) Down - milling: Itis also known as down milling. In
this type, the wheel rotates parallel to the feeding. The
chips are thick in the starting and leaves out thin. The
length of the chip is relatively shorter. Tool life is relatively
longer.
(g) Face milling: During operation, the axis ofthe cutter
makes a 90° angle with developed surface. The surface is
generated is due to combined result of operations of cutter
teeth located on both periphery and the cutter face.

SHAPING: (WORKING PRINCIPLE)
It is described as a process in which metal is removed from
metal work piece surface in horizontal, vertical and angular
planes. In these operations, a single point cutting tool is
utilized, which is held on the ram that provides a
reciprocating motion to the tool. A single point cutting tool
is clamped in the tool post which is mounted on the
machine's ram. The motion ofthe ram is the reciprocating
TO and FRO, which resulting the tool cuts the material in
the forward stroke. There is no cutting during return or
bachward stroke.
Shaping operations are generally used for producing slots,
grooves and keyways. It also produces contour of can
cave or conven or a combination of these.

Characteristics of grinding wheel
The performance of a grinding wheel depends on the
following factors:
(a) Abrasives: Abrasives are used due to its two main
mechanical properties i.e. hardness and toughness. Italso
has a sharp edges. Some ofthe properties of abrasives are
indentation, fracture r resistance, wear resistance etc. There
are generally two types of abrasives which are as :
=> Natural abrasives: These are sand stone, corundum
diamond and gasnet etc.
=> Synthetic abrasives : These are manufactured and
have well defined properties of roughness and hardness.
Eg : silicon carbide and aluminium oxide.
(b) Bond: It has the property of adhesiveness. Due to
this property, the abrasive grains are cemented together
for the purpose offormation of grinding wheel. As per the
demand, it serves the imparting of hardness or softness
properties to the grinding wheel.
Some bonds are given as follows:
=> vitrified bond
=> silicate bond
c> shellac bond
=> Rubber bond
=> Oxy chloride bond
c> Resinoid bond
(c) Grit: Itis also termed as grain size. After passing the
materials through screens, the size of the grain grit is
determined with the number of meshes / linear inch. It
influences the stock removal rate and surface finish. Grain
size selection depends upon the type of grinding, type of
material; material removal rates (MRR) and required surface
finish.
(d) Wheel grade: The wheel grade is measured by the
strength ofthe bonding material. These are generally two
kinds of wheels used which are hard wheel (Strong bond
and abrasive grains can with stand with larger forces) and
soft wheels (ifthe material to be grinded is hard then the
abrasives grains are wear out and resulting losing of sharp
edges for cutting is lost, this process is known as glazing.)
Selection of grinding wheel:
The grinding wheels are selected depending upon the
following given factors.
(a) Material's properties
(b) Required quality of surface finish
(c) Accuracy in dimensions
(d) Method ofgriding i.e. either dry or wet
(e) Rigidity, size and machine type
(t) Speed and feed of wheel

  • 6. Methods of reducing friction : There are many ways to reduce friction some of them are given as follows: 1. Surfaces ofthe mating parts or contacting surfaces should be smooth 2. Lubrication is also implemented for reducing friction by making surfaces smooth 3. Streamlined shapes should be used because these shapes offers least resistance against air flowor water flow. 4. If the forces are reduced on contacting surfaces, the value of friction is reduced 5. Lesser contact between the mating surfaces also reduces the friction. Cone of friction Cone of friction : It is defined as the right circular cone with vertex at point of contact of two surfaces and axis in the direction of normal reactions. Inclined plane with horizontal w=mg From fig : tan <I> = : = Il =><I> = tan-1(FIR) Angle of repose (<X) : When a body rests on an inclined plane, the angle by which the body is at the verge (just) to start moving in terms as angle of repose. by the resultant of normal reaction with the limiting force of friction with the normal reaction. 21RF I w=mg From the fig : R = w= mg P=F If, P is less than F, the body will not move. But, if P is increased after a stages achieved by limiting force of friction, the body will start moving. Co-efficient of friction (J..t) : It is defined as the ratio of limiting force of friction (F) to the normal reaction (R) between two rigid bodies. F u > -=>F=IlR R Angle of friction (<1»: Itis defined as the angle subtended Horizontal surface F (Frictional for~ ~ Some conceptor/terms of friction: Friction: Friction may be defined as the resistive force acting at the surface of contact between two bodies that resist motion of one body relative to another. => Based on the nature of two surfaces in contact, friction in categorised in the following two kinds/types. (a) Static friction: When two contact surfaces are at rest, then the force experienced by one surfuce is termed or static friction. (b) Dynamic friction : When one of the two contact bodies starts moving and the other in at rest, the force experienced by the body in motion is called dynamic friction.

  • 7. Gravitational law is also known as universal law of gravitation. According to this law,Every substance or bodyhas an attractive force with another substance or body and this attractive force is directly proportional to the product oftheir masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between their centers. This attrative force is directed along the line which joins the centers of bodies. Let MJ and M2be the masses of two bodies and 'R' be the distance between the centers of two bodies. 'F' be the attractive force or force of attraction between those bodies. Now, According to law, F o: MJ X M2 GRAVITATIONAL LAW where IF=m~=mal In=mass of the body v = velocity of the body F =Force acting on the body a = acceleration produced in the body. 3. Newton's third law of motion: This law states that there is always an equal and opposite reaction to every action. d(mv) - --=F dt There are three laws of motion known as Newton's laws of motion. 1. Newton's first law ofmotion: This law statesthat ifa bodyis in the state ofrest it remains in the state ofrest and ifit is in motion it remains in the state of motion until the body is acted upon by some external force. 2. Newton's secondlawofmotion:Itstatesthattherateofchange ofmomentum is directlyproportional to the impressedforce, and take place in the samedirection, in which the force acts. Momentum = mv NEWTON'S LAWS OF MOTION Methods of analysis: (i) Method joints (ii) Method of sections (iii) Caraphical method Displacement, Speed, Velocity and Acceleration Displacement: Change of position of a body with respect to a certain fixed reference point is termed as displacement. Displacement is a vector quantity. Speed: Rate of change of displacement with respect to its surrounding is called as speed of the body. Since the speed of a bodyis irrespectiveofits direction,thereforeit is a scalarquantity. Velocity: The rate ofchange ofposition of a bodywith respect to time is called velocity.Velocityis a vector quantity. In other way wecan sayvelocityisthe speedofa bodyin a particular direction. Acceleration: The rate of change of velocity of a body with respect to time is called acceleration. A negative acceleration is calledretardation. Beam is subjected to following set of forces after the beam is detached from the supports. (a) Weightofthe beamW acting verticallydownwardsthrough mass centre of the beam. (b) Reaction Rt, normal to the beam at its smooth contact with the corner. (c) Horizontal applied force P and couple M (d) Vertical and horizontal reactions (Ravand Rah)extented at the pin connection at B. => Principle of equilibrium/ Equilibrium conditions : According to the principle of equilibrium, A body, either in co-pl-anar or concurrent or parallel system, will be in equilibrium if the algebric sum of all the external forces is zero and also algebric sum of moments of all the external forces about any point in their plane is zero. So, LF = 0, LM = 0 => Equilibrium equations for non-concurrent forces LF = 0 LF = 0 LM = 0x ' y , => Equilibrium equations for concurrent forces LF = 0, LF = 0 (only two conditions are required)x y w ~M The free body diagram (FBD) of the above system can be drawn as in Fig. FREE BODY DIAGRAMS A free body diagram (FBD) is a simplified representation of particle or rigid bodythat is isolated from it's surroundings, and all applied forces and reactions on the body are put together in a diagram. These diagrams are the simplest abstraction of the external forces and moments acting on a physical object. Creating a free body diagram involves mentally separating the system (the portion of the world you are interested in) from its surroundings(the rest ofthe world) and then drawing a simplified representation of the system. All forces acting on a particle, original bodymust be considered and equally important. Anyforcenot directlyapplied on the body must be excluded.

The surface of one element slides over the surface of the other. For example: a piston along with cylinder.

Based on the type of mechanical constraint (or mechanical contact) (a) Self Closed Pair: If the links in the pair have direct mechanical contact, even without the application of external force. (b) Force Closed Pair: If the links in the pair are kept in contact by the application of external forces. 3.

(t) Spherical Pair: In a spherical pair, a spherical link turns inside a fixed link. Ithas three degrees of freedom. DEFINITION OF KINEMATIC CHAIN Combination of kinematic pairs joined in such a way that the last link isjoined to the first link and the relative motion between them is definite. There are two equations to find out. Whether the chain is kinematic or not. l = 2p-4 where l = number oflinks p = number of pairs CONSTRAINED MOTIONS Constrained motion (or relative motion) can be broadly classified is to three types. 1. Completely Constrained: Constrained motion in which relative motion between the links of a kinematic pair occurs in a definite direction by itself irrespective of the external forces applied. For example a square bar in a square hole undergoes completely constrained motion. 2. Incompletely Constrained: Constrained motion in which the relative motion between the links depend on the direction of external forces acting on them. These motions between a pair can take place in more than one direction. For example a shaft inside a circular hole. 3. Partially (or Successfully) Constrained Motion: If the relative motion between its links occurs in a definite direction, not by itself, but by some other means, then kinematic pair is said to be partially or successfully constrained. For example a piston reciprocating inside a cylinder in an internal combustion engine. TYPES OF KINEMA TIC PAIRS Types ofkinematic Chains: Usaually, A kinematic chain has a one degree of freedom. The kinematic chains having number of lower fairs are tour are considered to be the most important kinematic chains in which each pair act as a sliding pair or turning pair. Some of them are given as : (a) Four bar chain (b) Single slider crank chain (c) Double slider crank chain The classified of kinematic pairs is listed as below: 1. Based on the nature of contact between the pairing elements. (a) Lower Pair: Links in the pair have surface or area THEORY OF MACHINES It is the branch of Engineering Science, which deals with the study of relative motion between the various parts of machine along with the forces acting on the parts is known as the Theory of Machines (TOM). Kinematic Link: Each resistant body in a machine which moves relative to another resistant body is called kinematic link or element. A resistant body is which donot go under deformation while transmitting the force. Kinematic Pair: Ifthe relative motion between the two elements of a machine in contact with each other is completely or successfully constrained then these elements together is known as kinematic pair. rl'III~f)11Yf)l~ )11I(;IIINI~S lINI) )11I(;IIINI~1)I~SIfJN Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

Klein's construction is drawn on the configuration diagram. And It does not need to be drawn two or three different diagrams. Limitation: It is applicable to slider crank mechanism only. INSTANTANEOUS CENTRE A point located in the plane (of motion of a body) which has zero velocity. The plane motion of all the particles ofthe body may be considered as pure rotation about the point. Such a point is called the instantaneous centre ofthe body. Ifthere are three rigid bodies in relative planar motion and share three instantaneous centre, all lie on the straight line, called Kennedy's theorem. Instantaneous axis of rotation: The axis passing through the instaneous centre of the body at right angles to the plane of motion is called instantaneous axis of rotation. Axode: The instantaneous centre changes every moment, its locus is called centrods, and the surface generated by the instantaneous axis is called the axode. Methods to Locate Instantaneous Centre Locating the instantaneous centre of a body depends on the situation given. Following are some examples: (i) The instantaneous centre I lies at a distance Va along the (J) perpendicular to the direction of velocity Va at point A on a rigid body shown in Fig. IA = Va (J) A mechanism is obtained by fixing one ofthe links of a kinematic chain, for example a typewriter. Basically there are two types of a mechanism. 1. Simple mechanism: A mechanism with four links. 2. Compound mechanism: Mechanism with more than four links. Inversion of a Mechanism We can obtain different mechanisms by fixing different links in a kinematic chain, this method is known as inversion of a mechanism. Inversions of mechanisms: (a) Four bar mechanism MECHANISM Fig. Linkage shown in Fig. 1 is Grashoftype if s+l<p+q Grashof's criteria is applied to pinned four bar linkages and states that the sum ofthe shortest and longest link of a planar four-bar linkage cannot be greater than the sum of remaining two links if there is to be continuous relative motion between the links. GRASHOF'S CRITERIA GRUBLER'S CRITERION In a mechanism total no. of degrees of freedom is given by F = 3(n-l)-2j where n is no. oflinks and j = no. ofjoints (simple hinges) most ofthe mechanism are constrained so F = 1 which produces 1 = 3(n-l)-2j => 2j - 3n + 4 = 0 this is called Grubler's criterion. If there are higher pairs also no. of degrees of freedom is given by F = 3(n-l)-2j-h where h = no. of higher pairs. Also known as Kutz Bach criterion to determine the number of degree of freedom. This statement says that if the higher pairs are present in the mechanism like as slider crank mechanism or a mechanism in which slipping is possible between the wheel and fixed links. Higher pair: When the two element of a pair have a line or point contact when relative motion takes place and the motion between two elements is partly turning and partly sliding. E.g. Cam and follower, bale and bearing, belt and rope drive etc. Number of degree of freedom (movability): The number of independent parameters that define its configuration. The number of input parameters which must be independently controlled in order to bring the mechanism into useful engineering purpose. If L.HS > RH.S. then it is a locked chain L.HS. = RH.S. then it is a kinematic chain L.HS. < RH.S. then it is an unconstrained chain Theory ofMachines and Machine DesignA-42 Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

ACKERMAN STEERING GEAR MECHANISM All the four wheels must tum about the same instantaneous centre to fulfill the condition for correct steering. Equation for the correct steering is cot <I> - cot e= c/b where c = Distance between the pivots of the front axles b = Wheel base <I> and e are angle through which the axis of the outer wheel and inner whel turns respectively. For approximately correct steering, value of c/b should be in between 0.4 and 0.5. DAVIS STEERING GEAR MECHANISM According to Davis Steering gear the condition for the correct steering is given by tan a = c/2b a c = at = 2r..rvcc cc UI CORIOLIS COMPONENT OF ACCELERATION Ifa particle C moves with a velocityv on a linkAB rotating with angular velocity co,as shown in Fig., then the tangential component ofthe acceleration of the particle C with respect to the coincident point on the linkAB is called coriolis component of acceleration which is given by at a = ~ which is perpendicular to the link PQ PQ and the tangential component ofthe linear acceleration ofQ with respect to P is given by at =axPQQP ar = co2 X PQ = ( VQP J2 X PQ = V~P QP PQ PQ Fig. Radial component of the linear acceleration of Q with respect to P is given by t Clap Fig. Now ifthe point Q moves with respect to P with an angular velocity coand angular acceleration a, thus velocity has two components, perpendicular to each other. (a) Radial or centripetal component (b) Tangential component These components of velocity can be determined by calculating linear accelerations in radial and tangential directions. Figure shows the link representing both the components of acceleration. Va = co xIA v, = coxIB where co is the angular velocity with which the body shall appear to rotate about the instantaneous centre I. (iii) If the two links have a pure rolling contact, the instantaneous centre lies on their point of contact. (iv) If the slider moves on a fixed link having straight surface, the instantaneous centre lies at infinity and each point on the slider have the same velocity. Number of Instantaneous Centres in a Constrained Kinematic Chain If n are the number oflinks in a constrained kinematic chain, then the number of instantaneous centre (N) is given by N= n(n-l) 2 VELOCITY AND ACCELERATION OF MECHANISMS To analyse velocity and acceleration ofa mechanism we proceed link by link associated in the mechanism. Let us consider two points P and Q on a rigid link PQ, as shown in Fig. Let point Q of the link moves in clockwise direction relative to point P. In this case the relative velocity of point Q with respect to P would be perpendicular to the line PQ. A-43Theory ofMachines and Machine Design Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

Two parallel shafts may be connected by open belt or by cross belt. In the open belt system, the rotation of both the pulleys is in the same direction.

The gears are used to transmit power from one shaft to another when the shafts are at a small distance apart. Types of Gears Commonly used gear are as below: (a) Spur gear:Acylindricalgearwhosetoothtracesare straight lines parallel to the gear axis. These are used for where rl and r2are radii of the two pulleys x = distance between the centres of two pulleys In a crossed belt drive the length of the belt is given by (r + r )2 L = 1t (rI + r2)+ I 2 + 2x x When the belt passesfromthe slack sideto the tight side a certain portion of the belt extends and when the belt passes from the tight to slack side the belt contracts. Due to these changes in length, there is relative motion (called creep) between the belt and pulley surfaces. Creep reduces the velocity ofthe belt drive system like slip do. Centrifugal Tension The centrifugal tension (Tc)is given by T, = mV2 where m = Mass per unit length of the belt V = Linear velocityofthe belt The power transmitted can be calculated as below: The total tension on the tight side = T) + Tc The total tension on the slack side = T2+ Tc ..

These are employed when low power is to be transmitted, for example in house hold appliances, table top tools and machinery ofthe clothing. Round belts are made ofleather, canvas and rubber. types having ultimate tensile strength between 4.5 to 7 N per cm width. For heavy duty,two or three piles ofleather are cemented and pressed one above the other such belts are called double or triple ply belts. (b) V-belts: Fig. shows the cross section of the V-belts. V- belts are available in fivesections designedA, B, C, D, and E and there are used in order of increasing loads. Section A is used for light loads only and section E is used for heavy duty machines. The angle ofV-belt for all sections is about 40°. In order to increase the power output, several V-belts may be operated side by side. In multiple V-belt drive, all the belts should stretch at the same rate so that the load is equally divided between them. If one of the set ofbelts break, the entire set should be replaced at the same time. The groove angle in the pulley forrunning the belt is between 400to 60°. Due to reduced slipping, V-belts offer a more positive drive. V-belt drives run quietly at high speeds and are capable of absorbing high shock.

Trace Point: The reference point on the follower which is used to generate the pitch curve that varies from case to case. For example, in case of knife edge follower, the knife edge represents the trace point and the pitch curve corresponds to the cam profile while in case of roller follower, the centre of the roller represents the trace point 3. Pressure Angle: The angle between the direction of the follower motion and a normal to the pitch curve. Keeping the pressure angle too large will lead to joining of reciprocating follower. 4. Pitch Point: A point on the pitch pitch curve having the maximum pressure angle. A rotating machine element which gives reciprocating or oscillating motion to another element called follower is known as cam. These are mainly used for inlet and exhaust values ofl.C. engines, lathes etc. Types of Cams L Radial cam:A cam in which followerreciprocates or oscillates in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the cam. Radial cam is further classified as (a) Reciprocating cam (b) Tangent cam (c) Circular cam 2. Cylindrical Cam: A cam in which the follower reciprocates or oscillates in a direction parallel to the cam axis.

GOVERNORS The function of a governor is to regulate the mean speed of an engine within mentioned speed limits for varying type of load condition. Terms Used in Governors (a) Height of Governor: Vertical distance from the centre of the ball to a point where arms intersect on the spindle axis. (b) Equilibrium Speed: The speed at which the governor balls, arms etc. are in complete equilibrium and the sleeve does not tend to move upwards or downwards. (c) SleeveLift: Vertical distance with the sleeve travels because of change in equilibrium speed. (d) Mean Equilibrium Speed: The speed at the mean position of the balls or sleeve. (e) Maximum and Minimum Equilibrium Speeds: The speeds at the maximum and minimum radius ofrotation of the balls, without tending to move either way are known as maximum and minimum equilibrium speeds respectively. IfN 1and N2 are maximum and minimum speeds then . . 2 (N1 - N2) Sensitiveness = ___;'----.!_----=c..::.... (N1 + N2) (f) Sensitiveness: A governor is said to be sensitive, if its change of speed is from no load to full load may be small a fraction of the mean equilibrium speed as possible and the corresponding sleeve lift may be as large as possible. (g) Stability: If for every speed within the working range there is a configuration of governor balls, then it is said that governor is stable. For a stable governor, the radius of governor balls must increase with increase in the equilibrium speed. (h) Hunting: Fluctuation in the speed engine continuously above and below the mean speed is called hunting. (i) Isochronism: A governor is isochronous provided the equilibrium speed is constant for all radii of rotation of the balls upto the working range. G) Governor Effort: The average force required on the sleeve to make it rise or come down for a given change in speed. (k) Power of Governor: The work done at sleeve for a given percentage change in speed. Mathematically Power = Mean effort x Lift of sleeve Types of Governors Different types of Governors are: (1) Simple governor-Watt type: The simplest type a centrifugal governor is known as watt type or watt governor. Height of the governor is given by 895 h = -- metres N2 where N = speed of the arm and ball about the spindle axis. (2) Porter governor: Itis obtained by modifying a Watt governor with a central load attached to the sleeve. The governor speed increases and decreases as the sleeve moves upwards or downwards respectively. A-49Theory of Machines and Machine Design Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

(ii) Pitch: It is the distance from the centre of one rivet to the centre of the next rivet measured parallel to the seam. (iii) Back pitch: The perpendicular distancebetweenthe centre lines of the successive rows is known as back pitch. (iv) Diagonal pitch: The distance between the centres of the rivets in adjacent rows of zig-zag riveted joints is called diagonal pitch. (v) Marginal pitch: The distance between the centre of rivet hole to the nearest edge of the plate is called marginal pitch. (vi) Caulking: A process in which, the edges of the plates are given blows to facilitate the forcing down of the edge. Blowing the plate with the help of caulking tool forms a metal to metal contact point. (vii) Fullering: A process in which a more satisfactory joint is made by using a tool which has its thickness near the end equal to the thickness of plate. This gives better joint with clean finish. Failures of Riveted Joint Rivetedjoints may fail in two ways as below: (i) Failure of Plate (ii) Failure of Rivet (i) Failure of Plate: Plates of the joint can fail in two ways listed below: (a) Tearing of plates at an edge: Ajoint may fail due to tearing of the plate at an edge during riveting or punching. We can avoid this by keeping the margin, m ~ 1.5 d where d is rivet hole diameter in mm. (b) Tearing of the plate across a row of rivets: The main plate or cover plates may tear off across a row of rivets due to tensile stresses in the main plates. The tearing resistance or pull required to tear off the plate per pitch length is given by Pt = (P - d) t crt wherePt= tearing resistance P = pitch of the rivets d = diameter of the rivet hole t = thickness of the plate crt = tensile stress value permissible for the plate material Double riveted lap joint Depending upon the relative position of the rivets of each row riveting is divided as (1) Chain Riveting: In this riveting, the rivets in the various rows are opposite to each other.

There are two types of welded joints commonly used listed below: (a) Lap joint or Filler joint: In this joint the plates are overlapped and then welded along the edges. The weld filled is train gular. There are various types of lap joints like single transverse, double transverse and parallel fillet joints. The transverse fillet welded joints are designed for tensile strength whereas the parallel fillet welded joints are designed for shear strength. Design of fillet joint: The tensile strength of a double transverse filled weld shown in Fig. is given by where, Ifapplied load> P, then tearing of the plate across a row of rivets occurs. (ii) Failure of Rivets: Rivets may fail in two ways listed below. If the plate thickness is less than 8 mm, the diameter of rivet is calculated by equating the shearing resistance to crushing. (a) Shearing of the rivets: If the rivets are unable to resist the tensile stress exerted by the plates, then they are sheared off, this is known as shearing of the rivets. In case oflap joint and single cover butt joint, rivets are in single shear, while in case of double cover butt joint rivets are subjected to double shear forces. The shearing resistance or pull required to shear off the rivet, per pitch length is given by PSsingle= n x ~ x d2 X 1"sfor single shear 4 PSdoubleshear= 2 x PSsingle where n = number of rivets per pitch length 1"= safe permissible shear stress for the rivet material d = diameter of the rivet hole (b) Crushing of the rivets: Ifrivets get crushed off under the tensile stress values then it is known as crushing of the rivets. As a result the joint becomes loose. The crushing resistance or pull required to crush the rivet per pitch length is given by Pc = n . d .t . ac where ac = Permissible crushing stress for the rivet or plate material t = Plate thickness n = Number of rivets per pitch length d = diameter of the rivet hole Efficiency of Riveted Joint Efficiency of riveted joint is the ratio of strength of the joint to the strength ofunriveted solid plate.

(f) Splines: When splines are integrated with the shaft which finally fits into the keyways of the hub. These are stronger than a single keyway.

For a particular value ofdiameter, coarse threads have large pitch and lead as compared to fine threads. Coarse threads are more in strength and chances ofthread shearing and crushing is veryless. They are preferred for vibration free applications as they offer lessresistance to unscrewing. Finethreads givebetter adjustment in fitment and are used where high vibrations take place as they offer high resistance to unscrewing. Fine threads are designated as Md x P for example M50 x 5 which indicates an isometric fine thread which has nominal diameter of 50 mm and pitch 5. While in case of coarse threads only Md is mentioned for example M50. Todesignate tolerance grade weuse the valuesof each tolerances like 7 for fine grade, 8 for normal and 9 for coarse grade. For example a bolt thread of 6 mm size of coarse pitch and with allowance on threads and normal tolerance grade is designated as M6-8d.

Mild steels are hot rolled and then finished to actual sizebyturning, grinding or cold drawing to manufacture shafts.

(c) shortest and longest links should be less than the sum of lengths of other two remaining links. So, statement (a) is incorrect and rest are correct. 10. (d) The mobility or degrees of freedom of a plane structure is the number of inputs (i. e., number of independent coordinates required to determine the configuration 16. (d) or position of all the links of the mechanism W.r.t. fixed link. It is determined by Grubler's equation as F = 3(n - 1) - 2j - h where F = degrees of freedom or movability of mechanism n = number oflinks j = number oflower pairs 17. (a) h = numbers of higher pairs Now, a 5-bar chain is the simplest statically indeterminate structure in which link 1is fixed as shown. Hence to specify the position of all links, two coordinates 91 and 92 are required. So two inputs are required to give a unique output. So, F = 2 or the mobility is 2. Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

(c) Static balance is a balance of forces due to the action of gravity. Consider a rigid rotor with the shaft laid on horizontal parallel ways. if it is in static balance, the shaft will not on the ways whatever may be the angular position of the rotor. For this to happen, the centre of gravity of the system of masses must lie at the axis of rotation of the shaft. For the centre of gravity to be at the axis of the shaft, the horizontal and vertical moments of the rotors must be equal to zero 'LWr sin 8 = 0, 'LWr cos 8 = 0 The above equations are also true with the dynamic balance of the inertia forces. Thus if the conditions for the dynamic balance are met, the conditions for static balance are also met. 29.

  • 86. ZEROTH LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS If objects A and B are separately in thermal equilibrium with a third object C then objects A and B are in thermal equilibrium with each other. Zeroth law of thermodynamics introduces thermodynamic quantity called temperature. Two objects (or systems) are said to be in thermal equilibrium iftheir temperatures are the same. In measuring the temperature of a body, it is important that the thermometer be in the thermal equilibrium with the body whose temperature is to be measured. (c) Isolated system: In an isolated system, no mass and no energy is transferred across system boundary. ~ystem boundary ~ Surroundings (No mass transfer No energy transfer) (Isolated system) Surrounding ~system boundary (Thermodynamic system) Typesofthermodynamic systems: There are three types ofthermodynamic systems: (a) Closed system: A thermodynamic system in which mass is not transferred across system boundary but energy may be transferred in and out ofthe system, is known as closed system. Mass in the piston - cylinder arrangement is the example of a closed system. (b) Open system: The open system is defined as a system in which mass as well as energy can be transferred with its surroundings. Open systems are most common. The region where analysis ofthe system is performed is known to be a control volume and the boundary of control volume is known as control surface. Eg: Air compressor lnputmass stem boundary Input mass Exit mass Surroundings Exit energy (Open system) THERMODYNAMIC SYSTEM A thermodynamic system is described as a kind of a region available in space and this region is concentrated for the purpose of analysing a problem. The system is considered to be separated from surroundings (external to system) by the boundary of the system. The nature of the boundary may be real or imaginary and it is considered to be flexible i.e., it can change its shape or size. Ifwe combine a system and its surroundings, then it constitutes the universe. THERMODYNAMICS In the subject of thermodynamics, the inter-relationship among heat, work and system properties are studied. It is also called as the conceptual science of entropy and energy. Some Thermodynamical Terms in brief (i) Thermodynamic system: A thermodynamical system is an assembly oflarge number ofparticles which can be described by thermodynamic variables like pressure (P),volume (V), temperature (1). (ii) Surroundings: Everything outside the system which can have a direct effect on the system is called surroundings.

Thermodynamic equilibrium A systemis saidtobe in equilibriumwhenthereis no driving forces within the system after isolation ofthe system from its surroundings. A system is said to be in thermodynamic equilibrium it satisfies the following three kinds of equilibrium: (a) Mechanicalequilibrium (b) Thermalequilibrium (c) Chemicalequilibrium Internal energy or energy of the system The internal energy of the thermodynamic system is regarded as the combination of all kinds/forms of energy of the system. These all forms of energy include kinetic energy, potential energy vibrational energy, rotational energy etc. IfdU is the internal energy of the system, then, dU=MC~T where, M = mass in kg, C = specific heat - capacity, ~T = change in temperature. Energy can also be considered as a property of a thermodynamic system. Consider a system that undergoes a change fromstate'A' to state'B' and the systemundergoes a cyclic process. A f ~B System 1 System 2 If SI and S2are the entropies ofthe system I and 2 respectivelyat any temperature, then SI < S2. (i) Entropy is not a conserved quantity. (ii) Entropy can be created but cannot be destroyed. (iii) Entropy of the universe always increases. If a system at temperature T is supplied a small amount of heat ~Q, then change in entropy of the system can be defined as ~Q M= T for constant T For a systemwith variable T, we have sf dQ ~S = Sf - s, = f T s, The second law of thermodynamics may be stated in terms of entropy as: It is impossible to have a process in which the entropy of an isolated system is decreased. FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS The first law of thermodynamics is based on conservation of energy. According to this law heat Q supplied to a system is equal to the sum ofthe change in internal energyfal.I) and work done by the system (W). Thus we can write Q = ~U+W More about First Law of Thermodynamics 1. Heat supplied to the system taken as positive and heat given by the system taken as negative. 2. It makes no different between heat and work. It does not indicate that why the whole of heat energy cannot be converted into work. 3. Heat and work depend on the initial and final states but on the path also. The change in internal energy depends only on initial and final states of the system. 4. The work done by the system against constant pressure P is W = P~V. So the first law of thermodynamics can be written as Q = /).u + p/).v . 5. Differentialformofthe first law; dQ = dU+dW or ~ = dU+NV SECOND LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS (i) Kelvin - Plank Statement: It is impossible to construct an engine that can convert heat completely into work without producing any other effect.According to the statement the efficiencyof any heat engine always be less than 100%. (ii) Clausius Statement: For a self acting machine, it is impossible to transfer heat from a colder body to a hotter body without the aid of external agency. ENTROPY Entropy is the another thermodynamical variable which many times veryuseful to understand the system.Entropy is related to the disorder orrandomness in the system.Tounderstand this, let us consider two systems as shown in Fig. Thermal EngineergingA-84 Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

Irreversible Process Any process which cannot be retraced in the reverse direction exactly is called an irreversible process. Most of the processes occurring in the nature are irreversible processes.

ANALYSIS OF THERMODYNAMIC CYCLES RELATED TO ENERGY CONVERSION According to first law ofthermodynamics, heat given to a system (~Q) is equal to the sum of increase in its internal energy (~U) and the work done (~W) bythe systemagainst the surroundings. i.e., 1Q= ~U + 1W Heat(~Q) andworkdone(~W) arethe path functionsbut internal energy (~U) is the point function. Work Let us consider a gas or liquid contained in a cylinder equipped with a movablepiston, as shown in Fig. Supposethat the cylinder has a cross-sectional area A and the pressure exerted by the gas at the piston is P. total volume of the gas. Therefore volume of the gas is equal to volume of the vessel. (4) The moleculesofgases are in a stateofrandom motion, i.e., theyare constantlymoving with all possiblevelocitieslying between zero and infinity in all possible directions. (5) Normally no force acts between the molecules. Hence they move in straight line with constant speeds. (6) The molecules collide with one another and also with the walls ofthe container and change there direction and speed due to collision. These collisions are perfectly elastic i.e., there is no loss of kinetic energy in these collisions. (7) The molecules do not exert any force of attraction or repulsion on each other except during collision. So, the moleculesdo not posses any potential energy.Their energy iswhollykinetic. (8) The collisions are instantaneous i.e., the time spent by a moleculein a collisionis verysmallas comparedto the time elapsed between two consecutive collisions. (9) Thoughthemoleculesareconstantlymovingfromoneplace toanother,the averagenumberofmoleculesperunit volume of the gas remains constant. (10) The molecules inside the vessel keep on moving continuously in all possible directions, the distribution of molecules in the wholevesselremains uniform. (11) The mass ofa molecule is negligibly small and the speed is very large, there is no effectof gravity on the motion ofthe molecules. Ifthis effect were there, the density of the gas would have been greater at the bottom of the vessel. Equation of State or Ideal Gas Equation The equation which relates the pressure (P), volume (V) and temperature (T) of the given state of an ideal gas is known as ideal gas equation or equation of state. i.e., PV=nRT where R = universal gas constant Numerical value ofR = 8.31joule mol-1 kelvirr ' n = no. of moles of gas Behaviour of Real Gases The gases actually found in nature are called real gases. 1. Real gases do not obey gas laws 2. These gases do not obey the ideal gas equation PV=nRT 3. A real gas behaves as ideal gas most closelyat lowpressure and high temperature. 4. Equation of state for real gases is given by Vander waal's equation Thermal Engineerging Qxy- To(Sy- Sx) or u.E. Qxy- Wmax or u.E. = To(S, - Sx) The unavailable energy is thus the product of the lowest temperature of heat rejection, and the change of entropy of the system during the process of supplying heat. Availability of a Given System It is the maximum useful work (total work minuspdV work) that is obtainable in a process in which the system comes to equilibrium with its surroundings. It depends on the state of both the system and surroundings. LetU, S, andVbethe initial valuesofthe internal energy,entropy, and volumeofa systemand Uo,So,and Votheir [mal valueswhen the system has come to equilibrium with its environment. The system exchanges, heat only with the environment, and the process may be either reversible or irreversible, the useful work obtained in the process W ::;;(U-ToS+poV)-(Uo- ToSo+PoVo) Let <1>=U- ToS+ PoV where <I>is the availabilityfunction and is a compositepropertyof both the system and its environment, with U, S, and V being properties of the system at someequilibrium state, and Toand Po the temperature and pressure of the environment. (In the Gibbs function, G = U- TS + PV,T, and p refer to the system). The decrease in the availabilityfunction in a process in which the systemcomes to equilibrium with its environment is <I>-<I>o=(U- ToS+ PoV)-(Uo- ToSo+PoVo) .. W::;;<I>-<I>o Thus the useful work is equal to or less than the decrease in the availability function. Irreversibility of the Process The actualwork donebya systemis alwayslessthan the idealized reversible work, and the differencebetween the two is called the irreversibility ofthe process. 1= Wmax- W This isalsosometimesreferredtoas 'degradation' or 'dissipation'. For a non-flow processbetween the equilibrium states, when the system exchangs heat only with the environment .. I~O I= To[(1S)system+ (~S)SUlT.J Similarly, for steady flowprocess, I = To(1Ssystem+ ~SSUlT) The same expression for irreversibility applies to both flow and non-tlowprocesses. The quantityTo(~Ssystem+ 1SSillT)represents an increase in unavailable energy (or energy). BEHAVIOUR OF IDEAL AND REAL GASES Behaviour of Ideal Gases The behaviour of ideal gases is based on the following assumptions of kinetic theory of gases : (1) All the molecules of a gas are identical.

The process may be reversed from state 6 to state 1upon cooling. The curve passing through the 2, 3 points is called the fusion curve and the curve passing through the 4, 5points (which indicated the vaporization or condensation at different temperature and pressure) is called the vaporization curve. The vapour pressure of a solid is measured at different temperatures, and these are plotted as a sublimation curve. These three curves meet as the tripple point as shown in the figure. The slopes of sublimation curve and vaporization curves for all substance are positive and slope of the fusion curve for more substance is positive but for water, it is negative. The triple point of water is at4.58 mm ofHg and 273.16 K whereas that ofCO2 isat 3885 mm ofHg and 216.55 K.So when solid CO2 (dry ice) is exposed to 1 atm pressure, it gets transformed into vapour, absorbing the latent heat of sublimation from surroundings.

QI = h, -h6s + h3 - h2s; Q2 = h4s - hs WT = h, - h2s + h3 - h4s; Wp = h6s - hs In practise, the use of reheat only gives a small increase in cycle efficiency, but it increases the net work output by making possible the use of higher pressures, keeping the quality of steam at turbine exhaust within a permissible limit. By increasing the number of reheats, still higher steam pressures could be used, but the mechanical stresses increase at a higher proportion than the increase in pressure, becuase ofthe prevailing high temperature. In this cycle, the expansion of steam from the initial state 1to the condenser pressure is carried out in two or more steps depending upon the number of reheats used. In this case efficiency, Pump Wp The flow diagram for the ideal Rankine cycle with reheat is shown in fig. where, Q1 = heat transferred to the working fluid Q2 = heat rejected from the working fluid WT = work transferred from the working fluid Wp = work transferred into the working fluid RANKINE CYCLE WITH REHEATER (hI -h4)-(h2 -h3) (h, - h4) (c) ... s (a) 1" Simple steam power plant Process 1 : Reversible constant pressure heating process of water to form steam insteam boiler.

It is considered to be an idealized cycle and the following assumptions are made for analysis: 1. The working fluid is taken as air for the cycle and assumed to be a perfect gas. 2. The engine is assumed to working in a closed cycle. There is no change of mass of the working medium. 3. All the processes that conclude the cycle is of reversible nature. In the cycle 4-5-6-4', rp is lower than in the basic cycle 1-2-3-4', so its efficiency is lower. Therefore, the efficiency of the cycle decreases with the use of reheat. But T6 is greater than T'4. Therefore, ifregeneration is employed, there is more energy that can be recovered from the turbine exhaust gases. So when regeneration is employed in conjunction with reheat, there may be a net gain in cycle efficiency.

In this type, a number of simple impulse turbines in series are mounted on a single common shaft. Each simple impulse turbine is said to be the stage of the turbine. Each stage consists of its own nozzles and blades. The steam coming out from the boiler passes through first nozzle where its pressure is decreased and velocity is increased. This high velocity steam is directed towards the moving blades of first stage result absorption of all of its velocity. Hence the steam pressure does not is being apsorbed. Thus the total dynamic action of steam turbine plays an important role during the working of steam turbine. The steam is impinged with a high pressure via nozzle and because of this impingement, a specific amount of heat energy is transformed into kinetic energy. Now, the high velocity steam particles strike on the blade of turbine resulting in change in direction of motion and develops a momentum. Steam flows with high velocity like jets and moving parts of turbine transforms these high velocity sets into mechanical work which rotates the shaft of generator and thus rotation of shaft gives rise to the generation of electricity.

The kinetic energy is minimised. The pressure energy does not change before striking. When the steam passes through moving blades, then is a difference of pressure between inlet and outlet tips due to w_hichpressure is decreased while passing through movmg blades. The fixed blades are considered to change the steam direction and at the same time allowing to get expanded to higher velocity values. The steam pressure decreases when if passes over the moving blades. Velocitycompounding (d) Pressure velocity compounded turbine: Itis the combinationarrangement ofpressurecompounding and velocity compounding. The decrease in total pressure of steam is split in stages and velocity of each stage is compounded. A High amount of pressure is decreases in this type of turbine and so lesser number of stages are required which gives rise to design ofa smaller turbine for similar value of pressure drop. The efficiency is very low and it is very rarey used nowadays.

Ithas in general, moving and fixedblades.The steam at a veryhigh pressure coming out from boiler is expanded in the nozzle where pressure energy is transformed into the kinetic energy.The steam at high velocity is impinged on the first stage of moving blades and steam flows through blades loosing some amount of velocity due to the fact that some part of momentum imported by blade. High kinetic energy is absorbed and steam velocity remains constant while passing through fixed blades. The process is repeated fill all of steam energy is being absorbed. pressure absorbed is equally (nearly) divided in stages which reduces the steam velocity entering into moving blade.

Ideal and Real fluids: • In ideal fluids, there is no viscosity and no surface tension and are incompressible. • In real fluids, viscosity, surface tension together exist and are compressible along with density. Classification of fluids : Fluids can be classified on the basis of the following: Based on density and viscosity (i) Ideal fluid: An ideal fluidis describedas a fluidwhich is in compressible and also has zero viscosity and constant density. (ii) Real fluids: A real fluid is described as a fluid which is compressible and viscous by nature. The density of real fluid are variable and while in motion, an amount of resistance is always offered by these fluids. (iii) Newtonian fluids: Newtonian fluidssare defined as fluids those obeyNewton's law of viscosity.The density ofthese fluids may be constant or variable. The viscosity is calculated according to Newton's law of viscosity as : du t=f..l- dy where, r = shear stress f..l= viscosity offluid du/dy = velocity gradient Examples are, water, ethyl alcohol, benzene etc. (iv) Non-Newtonion fluids: Non-newtonian fluids are defined as fluids those do not obey Newton's laws of viscosity. The density of these fluids may be constant or variable and the viscosity of these fluids does not remain constant. Examples are Gels, Solutions ofpolymers, pastes etc. (v) Compressible fluids: A compressible fluid is defined as the fluid which reduces its volume when an external pressure is applied. All the fluids available in nature are compressible. (vi) In-compressible fluids: Incompressiblefluids are defined as the fluids whose density does not change when the value of pressure changes. There is no effect of pressure on the density of fluid. In these fluids, density remains constant and viscosity remains non-zero.

  • 177. Steel Alloys: Along with the carbon, all steels may be alloyed by mixing some other elements in various proportions to improve followingmost common properties of steel. Some of them are given below: (a) Toimprove hardness, toughness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, ductility and red hot hardness, etc. (b) Sometimes alloying is done to improve grain structure. Classification: Steel alloys may be classified into many types on the basis of different properties. Some of them are given below: (a) Internal Structure: On the basis of internal structure steel alloys. Chromium It promotes hardness, toughness and corrosion resistance. Silicon Improveselasticity,magnetic permeability and decrease hysteresis losses. Nickel Improves corrosion resistance, toughness, ductility, deep hardness and tensile strength. Cobalt Improves toughness, hardness, tensile strength and thermal resistance.s Manganese Minimise the bad effect of sulphur and increase strength and toughness also. Tungsten Increases toughness, hardness, shock resistance, wear resistivity and red hot hardness, etc. Molybdenum Improves thermal resistance, wear resistance, red hot hardness and hardness etc. Vanadium Promotes elastic limit, shock resistance, ductility and tensile strength etc. Titanium Promotes hardness. Niobium Decrease hardness and promotes fine gram growth, impact strength and ductility etc. Aluminium It acts as a de-oxidizer and promotes fine growths Copper It Increase corrosion resistance and strength etc. Boron It improves hardenability. Effect on Steel ElementAlloying steel is slightly better than that of semi-killed steel. Effect ofAlloying Elements on SteelIron contains carbon in two forms: (free form) and (combined form). But in steel, carbon is present in chemically combined form which is limited up to 1.5%. Beyond this percentage of carbon, categorized into cast iron. Or we may saysteel is a mixture ofiron and chemically combined carbon from 0.15%-1.5%. Some other elements are also present in steel like sulphur, silicon, phosphorous and manganese etc. Classification of Steel: These steel are known as plain carbon steel. According to percentage of carbon, it may be classified as under: (a) Dead Mild Steel - below 0.15% carbon. (b) Mild Steel (low carbon steel) - carbon from 0.15%-0.3%. (c) Medium Carbon Steel- 0.3%-0.8% carbon. (d) High Carbon Steel- 0.8%-1.5% carbon. Classification of Steel according Manufacturing Process: (a) Killed Steel: It is a well de-oxidised steel and the steel has been completely deoxidised by the addition of an agent such as silicon or aluminium, before casting, so that there is practically no evolution of gas during solidification. Killed steelsare characterised by a high degree of chemical homogeneity and freedom from porosity. The main disadvantage of killed steels is that it suffers from deep pipe shrinkage defects. This steel is denoted by 'K'. (b) Semi-Killed Steel: It is a secondary level de-oxidised steel than the killed steel and does not show the degree of properties like killed steel. Most of steel carrying carbon 0.15% to 0.25% comes in this category. Generally it is free from blow holes and having a sound outer surface. It is most widely used in structural work. (c) Rimmed Steel: Generally dead mild steel or we may say steels having 0.5% carbon are rimmed and partially de- oxidised. Due to rimmed, it consists a good surface finish. It is mostly used in rolling, deep drawing and spinning, etc. It is denoted by 'R'. Capped steels: Capped steel starts as rimmed steel but part way through the solidification the ingot is capped. This can be done by literally covering the ingot mold or by adding a deoxidizing agent. The top of the ingot then forms into a solid layer of steel, but the rim of the rest of the ingot is thinner than in rimmed steel. Also there is less segregation of impurities.

High speed steel may retain its hardness upto 600°C approximately. According to the alloying elements, high speed steel may be divided into following: (a) Plain High Speed Steel: It contains 18% tungsten, 4% chromium, 1% vanadium, 0.7% carbon with rest percentage of iron(Fe). It consists good red hot hardness, wear and shock resistivity. It is commonly used for making cutting tools for lathe machines, planner machines, shaper machines and drilling machines, etc. Such HSS tool could machine (tunn) mild steel jobs at speed only up to 20 - 30 mlmin. (b) Cobalt High Speed Steel: It contains about 20% tungsten, 12% cobalt, 4% chromium, 2% vanadium, 0.8% carbon and rest iron. It improves red hardness and retention of hardness of the matrix. (c) Vanadium High Speed Steel: It is simply plain high speed steel containing higher percentage of vanadium which provides better abrassive resistance than plain high speed steel. It forms special carbides of supreme hardness, increase high temperature wear resistance, retention of hardness and high temperature strength of the matrix. (d) Molybdenum High Speed Steel: It contains 6% molybdenum, 6% tungsten, 4% chromium, 2% vanadium and rest iron. It shows better cutting properties. It improves red hardness, retention of hardness and high temperature strength of the matrix, form special carbides of great hardness. Tungsten High Speed Steel: It contains 0.73% carbon, 18% tungsten, 4% chromium, 1% vanadium andrestiron(Fe).1t improves red hardness, retention of hardness and high temperature strength of the matrix, form special carbides of great hardness. HEATlREAlMENTPROCESS USED IN ENGINEERING PRACnCE Heat treatment is an operation or combination of operations involving heating at a specific rate, soaking at a temperature for a period of time and cooling at some specified rate. The aim is to obtain a desired microstructure to achieve certain predetermined properties (physical, mechanical, magnetic or electrical). The important principle ofheat treatment are as follows: (a) Phase transformation during heating. (b) Effect of cooling rate on structural changes during cooling. (c) Effect of carbon content and alloying elements. Objectives ofheat treatment (heat treatment processes): (a) To increase strength, harness and wear resistance (bulk hardening, surface hardening). (b) To increase ductility, toughness and softness (tempering, recrystallization, annealing). (c) To obtain fine grain size (recrystallization annealing, full annealing, normalizing). (d) To remove internal stresses induced by differential deformation by cold working, non -uniform cooling from high temperature during casting and welding (stress relief annealing). (b) According to Application: Structural steel, Tool steel and Special Alloys steel. (c) Principle Alloying Element: Nickel steel, Manganese steel, Tungsten steel and Chromium steel etc. Special Steel Alloys Stainless Steel: It is alloy of steel containing chromium as principal alloying element along with other elements like Nickel and Manganese, etc. Generally, chromium present in stainless steel is about 12%. The chromium present in stainless steel reacts with oxygen present in atmosphere and makes a strong layer of chromium oxide which is a highly corrosive resistant in nature. On the basis of structure, stainless steel may be classified into following: (a) Austenitic Stainless Steel: Austenitic steel (not temperable): Cr= 16.5 - 26%, Ni = 7 - 25%, Mo if used 1.5 - 4.5%, C = max 0.07%. It contains about 10%-12% chromium, 7%- 10% Nickel, 2% Manganese and 1%-2% Silicon and some other elements in minor quantity like Molybdenum and Titanium etc. Its hardness and strength may be improved by cold working only, not by any heat treatment etc. It is highly corrosion resistant and non-magnetic in nature. These alloys are highly resistant to many acids including hot and cold nitric acid and at temperature above 1200°F, are stronger and scale-less than any other plain chromium alloys. It consists good ductility and weldability, etc. (b) Martensitic Stainless Steel: Martensitic steel (temperable) : Cr = 12 - 18%, Mo ifused = 1.3 - 2%, C = max 0.25%. It contains 10%-14% chromium along with 0.08%-1.5% carbon and some other elements. The carbon dissolves in austenite which when quenched, provides martensitic structure. It consist comparatively less corrosion resistivity and good strain resistivity. It responds good for heat treatment. (c) Ferritic Stainless Steel: Ferritic steel (partial temperable) Cr = 12 -30%, Mo if used = 1.3 - 2.5%, C = max 0.08%. It contains about 12%-18% and 25%-30% chromium without any other major alloying elements. Sometimes (1%-15%) manganese and upto 1% silicon is added. Generally, low carbon steel is employed to make ferritic stainless steel. It consists poorer ductility and formability along with good weldability having good corrosion resistivity. It is mostly used in utensils, cutlery, surgical instruments and furnace parts, etc. High Speed Steel (H.S.S.): It is a well known tool steel and possesses the best combination of all properties. Ferritic - austenitic steel ( partial temeperable) : Cr = 17 - 27%, Ni = 4 - 6%, Mo ifused = 1.3 - 2%, C = max 0.10%. Which are essential for a good cutting tool for working at higher speed. These are hardness, toughness, wear resistance, hot hardness. High speed and cutting feed may result in production of high temperature at job and tool steel. So, it requires to be retain its properties like hardness and toughness etc. at generated high temperature. This property of retaining hardness and toughness etc. at elevated temperature is known as red hot hardness. High speed steels belongs to the Fe-C-X multicomponent alloy system where X represents chromium, tungsten, molybdenum, vanadium and cobalt. Generally, the X component is present in A-175Production Engineering Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

The properties of normalized steels depend on their chemical composition and the cooling rate, with the cooling rate being a function of the size of the part. Although there can be a considerable variation in the hardness and strengths of normalized steels, the structure usually contains a fine microstructure. This process is almost similar to annealing except in this process metal is heated 40°-50°C above its critical temperature and holding time is very shorter than annealing like (15 minutes) and then cooled down at room temperature in still air. This process improves impact strength of metal and removed internal stress ofmetal. Italso increase mechanical properties of metal like softness, mechanibility and refine grain structure of metal. (c) Hardening: In this process, metal is heated 30°-50°C more than its critical temperature and hold at that temperature up to a specific time, then cooled rapidly by quenching in water, oil or salt bath. This process increase hardness of metal. (d) Spheroidizing: Spheroidizing: - To produce steel in its softest possible condition with minimum hardness and maximum ductility, it can be spheroidized by heating just above orjust below the A 1eutectoid temperature and then holding at that temperature for an extended period of time. Spheroidizing can also be conducted by cyclic processing, in which the temperature of the steel is cycled above and below the A 1 line. This process breaks down lamellar structure into small pieces that form small spheroids through diffusion in a continuous matrix. Surface tension causes the carbide particles to develop a spherical shape. Because a fine initial carbidesizeacceleratessperoidization, the steel is often normalized prior to spheroidizing. This is the process of producing a structure in which the cementite is in a spheroidal distribution. If the steel is heated slowlyto a temperature just belowthe critical range and held for a prolonged period of time, then structure will be obtained the globular structure obtained given improved machinability of steel. (e) Tempering: This process may be defined as opposite of hardening. In this process, hardened steel is re-heated below critical temperature and allows to cool as slow rate which increase the softness and decrease the hardness and brittleness. This process increases toughness and ductility of steel. This process enables transformation of some martensite into ferrite and cementite.Tempering is used to reach specific values of mechanical properties, to relieve quenching stresses, and to ensure dimensional stability. It usually follows quenching from above the upper critical temperature; however,tempering is also used to relieve the stresses and reduce the hardness developed during welding and to relieve stresses induced by forming and machining. The exactamount ofmartensite transformed into ferrite and cementite will depend upon the temperature to which the metal is re-heated. When the hardened steel is reheated to a temperature between 100°-200°C, then (e) Toimprove surfaceproperties (surface hardening, corrosion resistance-stabilizing treatment and high temperature resistance-precipitation hardening, surfacetreatment). (t) To improve cutting properties of tool steels (hardening and tempering). (g) To improve magnetic and electrical properties (hardening, phase transformation). (h) Toimprovemachinability(fullannealing andnormalizing). The process of heat treatment may be classified into following types:- (a) Annealing: Annealing isbasicallyknown as metal softening process in which the metal heated upto its critical temperature or 30°-50°C aboveits critical temperature and then allows to cool at a specific rate like in full annealing process metal allowed to get cool in furnace. Normally at the rate of 10°-30°C per hour decrement of temperature of furnace. Annealed is done for one of the following purpose:- (a) To reduce hardness. (b) To relive internal stresses. (c) Toimprove machinability. (d) Tofacilitate further coldworking byrestoring ductility. (e) To produce the necessary microstructure having desired mechanical, magnetic and other properties. Types of annealing process: (a) Full annealing: It is defined as the steel to austenite phase and then cooling slowly through the transformation range when applied to steel. Full annealing is called as annealing. (b) Box annealing: Annealing a metal or alloy in a sealed container under condition that minimize oxidation. The material is packed with cast iron chips, burnt charcoal. It is also called as black annealing or pot annealing. (c) Bright annealing: Annealing in a protective medium is to prevent surface discoloration is called bright annealing. The protective medium is obtained by the use of an inert gas, such gas, argon or nitrogen or by using reducing gas atmosphere. (b) Normalizing: Normalizing: Steel is normalized by heating 50 to 60°C (90 to 110°F) into the austenite-phase field at temperatures somewhat higher than those used by annealing, followed by cooling at a medium rate. For carbon steels and low-alloy steels, normalizing means air cooling. Many steels are normalized to establish a uniform microstructure and grain size. The faster cooling rate during normalizing results in a much finer microstructure, which is harder and stronger than the coarser microstructure produced by full annealing. Steel is normalized to refine grain size, make its structure more uniform, make it more responsive to hardening, and to improve machinability. When steel is heated to a high temperature, the carbon can readily diffuse, resulting in a reasonably uniform composition from one area to the next. The steel is then more homogeneous and will respond to Production EngineeringA-176 Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2
  • 180. complete hardening and selected portion hardening. Even heat treated parts can be skin hardened through this process.Alloyshaving Chromium,Aluminium,Molybdenum and Vanadium responds best by this process. This process can be achieved by using gas nitriding and salt bath nitriding. But in both process, steel is heated below critical temperature. But this process is comparatively slower than other hardening process. This process is mostly used for hardening drills remains and milling, cutting tool in which the hardness at this shank is normally required less than this cutting edge. (h) Cyaniding: This is also a case hardening process which is used for low and medium carbon steels. In this process, carbon and nitrogen absorbed at surface which cause the hardness at the surface only. In this process, steel is heated in between range of 800°-950°C temperature in a molten salt bath. The types and proportion of cyanide salt in preparing the molten salt bath depends upon the amount of carbon contents needed at the metal surface. Mostly a mixture of sodium cyanide, sodium chloride and sodium carbonate is used in equal ratio. The hardness induced in the case of metal is due to the formation of compounds of nitrogen and carbon absorbed at surface. In this process, a low temperature is used normally 120°- 1500C. (i) Induction Hardening: Induction hardening is a form of heat treatment in which a metal part is heated by induction heating and then quenched. The quenched metal undergoes a martensitic transformation, increasing the hardness and brittleness of the part. Induction hardening is used to selectively harden areas of a part or assembly without affecting the properties of the part as a whole. Induction heating is a non-contact heating process which utilises the principle of electromagnetic induction to produce heat inside the surface layer of a work-piece. By placing a conductivematerial into a strong alternating magnetic field electrical current can be made to flow in the material thereby creating heat due to the I2R losses in the material. In magnetic materials, further heat is generated below the curie- point due to hysteresis losses. The current generated flows predominantly in the surface layer, the depth of this layer being dictated by the frequency ofthe alternating field, the surface power density, the permeability of the material, the heat time and the diameter of the bar or material thickness. By quenching this heated layer in water, oil or a polymer based quench the surface layer is altered to form a martensitic structure which is harder than the base metal. Itis fastest method ofhardening in which metal contain medium or high cast are hardened by this process. In this process, metal are placed under a high frequency (2000 cycles/sec) alternating current. When this high frequency current is passed through the metal, the carbon carbon is precipitated out from martensite to form a carbide called epsilon. This leads to the restoration of BCC structure in the matrix. Further, heating between 200°C- 350°C enables the structure to transformation to ferrite and cementite. Classification of Tempering: The tempering process may be classified as given below:- (i) Low temperature tempering: In this temperingprocess, steel is re-heated after hardening between temperature range 150°C-200°C. This process mostly used for tempering carbon tool steel, low alloy steel, surface hardened parts and measuring tools, etc. This process increase toughness and ductility and reduce internal stress. (ii) Medium temperature tempering: In this process, hardened steel is re-heated between temperature range 300°-450°C and retained at this temperature for a specific time and then allowed to cooled down at room temperature. In this process, martensite and austenite transformed into secondary troosite, which causes increase toughness and reduction of hardness. This process also improves ductility but reduce its strength. This process is used for the steel which supported to used with impact load like hammer, coils and cheals, etc. (iii) High temperature tempering: In this process, hardened steel is re-heated between temperature range 500°-650°C, then holding for a certain time and after which allows to cooled down at room temperature. This process removes internal stress completely and provide a micro structure which have good strength and toughness. This process is mostly used for crank shafts, gears and connecting rods etc. (f) Case Hardening: This process is also known as Carburising. In this process, the hardness is increased only at outer surface. In this process, steel is heated upto red hot and then immersed into high carbon reason which causes a production of surface having high carbon contents. This results increase hardness surface. The carbon is infused into surface of steel by diffusion from carbon monoxide gas at elevated temperature ranges between 870°-950°C due to having carbon contents at surface of steel. The hardness increased up to limited depth of steel and below this outer surface, a soft and tough core maintained automatically. Case hardening is any of several processes applicable to steel that change the chemical composition ofthe surface layer by absorption of carbon, nitrogen, or a mixture of the two and, by diffusion, create a concentration gradient on the surface. The processes commonly used are carburizing and quench hardening, cyaniding, nitriding, and carbonitriding. (g) Nitriding: It is also a case hardening but carbon is replaced by Nitrogen. Itprovides equal advantage for both carbon-alloy steel and other alloys steel. It can be used for A-177Production Engineering Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2
  • 181. Metal casting is a process in which molten metal is poured (in liquidstate)into a mould.There moltenmetal acquiresthe desired shape and size. Which is made previously in the mould after some time when metal gets solidified it is removed from mould. Casting is the oldestmethod of shaping metal and non-metals. In earlier time mostpopular casting method was "Sand Casting" in which desired shape article is pressed in to sand and when the article removed from sand it leavesan impression or cavityin the sand. Which is exactly according to the shape of article after removal of article molten metal is poured in this cavity formedin the sand. The article used to make cavity in sand is known as pattern and the cavitymade in sand isknown as mould. Advantage of Casting 1. Casting is a cheap,fastand economicalmethod ofproducing any shape ofmetal and Non-metals. 2. Large and heavy structures can be made easily by casting method. 3. Foridenticalmassproductioncastingisverysuitablemethod. 4. Duetoproductionofminimumscrap,wastageofrawmaterial isminimised. 5. Complex shape can be made easily by casting method with low production cost and in less time investment. 6. Casting is suitable formetal, non-metal and alloys. 7. Insertionof anyobjectofsamematerial ordissimilarmetal is easier in casting method. 8. Somemechanical propertiesachievedin casting processare distinct from any other manufacturing method. Someimportant terms (A) Mould. (B) Pattern (C) Core. (A) Mould: Itmay be defined as a shape made up of sand, Die Steel, Ceramic, and rubber etc. in which desired cavity is produced with the help ofsuitable pattern. According to the material used, in making cavity,the material can represent the mould's name like,ifsand is primematerialthen it willbe known as sand mould, and rubber mould if rubber is prime material in masking mould. Sand mould may further be classified in followingtypes : METAL CASTING part design, maintain proper hardness and doing tempering on proper timing. (c) Soft Spots: This defect may arise due to localised de-carburisation, heterogeneous initial structure or formation of bubbles during quenching process. This defect may be controlled by quenching properly in suitable solution and ensuring the heterogeneous structure of metal. (d) Coarse Grain Structure Formation: This defect may arise due to heating at elevated temperature to a long period then specified. This can be controlled by heating at specified temperature up to proper time. (e) Shape Distortion: This defect caused by non-uniform heating. This can be controlled by heating gradually up to specified temperature. (f) Holes Formation: This defect is caused due to bubble formation during quenching which can be controlled by carefully quenching and using specified quenching media / solution. contents present in metal itself increases its hardness after passing the current. The metal itself is quenched into liquid bath. This process takes 1-5 seconds only. This can be done on a specific area and to whole components normally automobile parts like crank shaft, gears and tappet pins are hardened by this process. The depth of hardness and degree of hardness depends upon the voltage and frequency of current. In hardening of large component, slower frequency current is used. (j) Flame Hardening: In this process, a high intensity oxy-acetylene flame is used to heat the steel. After heating steel above critical temperature steel is quenched to air or water bath. Jet can be used but this process is limited with medium and high carbon steel. This process can be made manual or fully computerised and automatic. Flame hardening consists of austenitizing the surface of steel by heating with an oxyacetylene or oxyhydrogen torch and quenching immediately.A hard surface layer of martensite forms over a softer interior core. (k) Laser Beam Hardening: It is a surface hardening process and almost similar to flameand induction hardening. In this process, medium and high carbon steel is coated with absorbtive media like Zinc or Manganese Phosphate and then a Laser Beam is passed through that which causes production of heat inside the metal and after passing the laser beam, metal is quenched into water or oil bath. It is a faster method and can be easily done on complete or localised area ofmetal. This process can be manual or fully automatic. (I) Heat Treatment of Non-Ferrous Metal: The mainly used heat treatment process for Non-ferrous metal is strain hardening, dispersion hardening but most popular method is age hardening / precipitation hardening. Age Hardening: In this process, non-ferrous alloys are heated into a single phase solid solution. On account of their decreasing solid solubilitywith lowingthe temperature their structure is transformed into two distinct phase. After which these metal allows to cooled down at rapid rate which caused structure is a super-saturated solid solution. When this alloy metal is heating at a predetermined temperature again the solute atoms precipitate of super- saturated solid solution. This process results in increasing hardness. This one of the reason due to which this process is known as precipitation hardening also. Defects in Heat Treatment Process: Due to some reasons, some defects may arise during heat treatment process. (a) Oxidation: If during heat treatment process, atmosphere is oxidising then oxidation may occurs, which can be prevented by controlling heating atmosphere or using carburesing agents. (b) Cracks: Sometime, cracks in metal during quenching, this may happens due to having unproper designs of object, too much hardness or delay in tempering after quenching. This defectmay be controlled byimproving Production EngineeringA-178 Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

(iii) Match Plate Pattern :- A match plate pattern is similar to a split pattern except that each half of the pattern is attached to opposite sides ofa single plate. The plate is usually made up of wooden material. This pattern design ensures proper alignment of mold cavities in cope and drag and the runner system can be included on the match plate. Match plate patterns are used for larger production. :':;c pattern ,...,..... ~g pattern f ~~."() ) ( ) Solid patterns are made in single piece having simple geometrical dimensions, it is easy to fabricate having separately defined parting line, runner and Gate etc. (ii) Splitpattern :- etc. These patterns are made slightly over size, for over weight, material so that extra metal can be used for matching etc. Most commonly used patterns are listed below. Patterns may be classified according to the following factors: (a) Shape and size and casting (b) Number of casting to be made (c) Method of moulding to be used (d) Parameters involved in the moulding operations (i) Solidpattern :- (i) Green sand mould :- The mold contains well prepared mixture of sand, water (moisture) and binder (clay), as name resemble green is not actually green colour but normally natural sand used in wet condition having suitable percentage of moisture and clay. (ii) Skin dried mould:- Itis more expensive mould having additional binding material with Green sand, which enables it less collapsibility, but higher finishing and produce better dimensional accuracy. This additional bonding material used in this mould is dried by using torch etc. (iii) Dry- Sand Mould :- It is mould silica sand which is mixed with organic binder and baked in suitable ovan. Where its moisture content is reduced due to which it provides lower collaspibility. These moulds are used for better dimensional accuracy because its formation is more time consuming. Where as additional heat and bonding material, involvement causes reduction in production quantity and increase in production cost. (iv) No-Bake Mould:- The sand is mixed with liquid resin and allowed to get hardened at room temperature. (v) Vacuum Moulding:- (V-Process) is a variation ofthe sand casting process for most ferrous and non-ferrous metal in which un-bonded sand is held in the flask with a vacuum. The pattern is specially vented so that a vacuum can be pulled through it. A heat softened thin sheet (0.003 to 0.008 Inch) of plastic film is draped over the pattern and a vacuum is drawn (27-53 KPA). A special vacuum forming flask is placed over the pattern and is filled with a free-flowing sand. The sand is vibrated to compact the sand and a sprue and pouring cup are formed in the cope. Another sheet of plastic is placed over the top of the sand in the flask and a vacuum is drawn through the special flask, this hardens and strengthens the un-bonded sand. The vacuum is then released on the pattern and the cope is removed. The drag is made in same way then molten metal is poured, white cope and drag are kept under a vacuum because plastic vaporises but the vacuum keeps the shape of sand till the metal gets solidified. After which vacuum is turned off and the sand runs freely, releasing the casting. Advantage of Vaccum Moulding Process: 1. Produced very Good Surface finish. 2. Cost of bonding material is eliminated. 3. No- Production of toxic fumes and provide excellent permeability. 4. No - Moisture generated defect. S. Better life of pattern because sand did not touch the pattern surface. Disadvantage: 1. Lowers, the production rate. 2. Takes more time hence increases production cost. (B) Pattern: Pattern may be defined as a solid hollow shaped item used to make cavity in the mould or we can say the replica of shape what we desire to cast patterns are made by various metals and non-metals depending upon the requirement like, wood, wax, aluminium, ferrous and ceramics A-179Production Engineering Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2
  • 183. (iii) Machining Allowance: Itis also known as finishing allowance. After casting process every casting needs some machining or finishing operations in which a considerable amount of material needs to be removed from casting surface to compensate the loss of material from the surface of casting, some additional amount of material is provided in addition of draft allowance, this percentage of extra material over casting surface is known as machining allowance. This allowance is provided both inside walls and out side walls of castings. (iv) Shake Allowance: Before withdrawal of pattern from mould, the pattern is wrapped all around the faces to enlarge the mould cavity slightly which facilitates its safe removal and causes the enlargement in mould size. So it is desirable that the original pattern dimensions should be reduced to account for this increase in dimensions or we can say that shake allowance is provided in (-ve) to the original size of pattern. (v) Distortion Allowance: The tendency of distortion is not common in all castings. Only castings which have an irregular shape and some such design that the construction is not uniform through out will distort during cooling on account of setting up of thermal stresses in them. Such an effect can be easily seen in some dome shaped or 'U' shaped castings. To eliminate this defect an opposite distortion is provided in the pattern, so that the effect is neutralised and the desired casting can be achieved. Colour Coding in Pattern Although colour coding is not accepted but the most commonly used coding are given below. (i) Red ~ machining surface (ii) Black ~ un-machining surface (iii) Yellow ~ core prints (iv) Red strips on yellow base ~ Seats for loose pieces. (v) Black strips on yellow base ~ Stop ofts. (vi) No - colour ~ parting surface. (C) Core: Core is generally made up of sand having bonding resin in proper quantity these core's are used for making hollow section inside the casting. A good core must have following properties. (a) It should have good permeability, so that gas can easily escape during casting process. (b) It should be made good refractory material so that it can withstand the high temperature and pressure of flow of molten metal. (c) Itshould have high collapsibility i.e. it should be able to disintegrate quickly after solidification of casting metal. (d) The binding material or core material should not produce additional gases during casting process. Classification ofCore:- (i) Horizontal Core (ii) Vertical core (iii) Balanced core Fig. Match Plate Pattern Design of Pattern Pattern as we know very well a master/ shape used to make cavities in mould of desired shape and size. During pattern designing we have to keep the following parameter in mind as given under, like material selection for pattern making. C patterns are made from wood, aluminium, plastic, rubber, ceramics and Iron etc. In general, pattern making process involves drawing making of desired object, to be made by casting along with addition of various allowance measurements with the dimensions. Most of the dimensional allowances to be added in pattern making are listed below: (i) Shrinkage Allowance: Shrinkage on solidification is the reduction in volume caused when metal loses temperature after casting. The shrinkage allowance is provided to compensate the reduction in volumetric dimensions. Aluminium permissible shrinkage allowance is 0.013 mm- 0.01 mm. (ii) Draft Allowance:At the time ofwithdrawing the pattern from the sand mould. Itmay damage the edge etc. so for making withdrawn easy, all patterns are given a slight taper on all vertical surface i.e. the surfaces parallel to the direction of their withdrawal from the mould. The taper is known as draft allowance. ._______ Drag Pattern Fig. (cope and drag pattern) (iv) Copeand drag pattern :- A cope and drag pattern is similar to a match plate pattern, except that each half ofthe pattern is attached to a separate plate and the mould halves are made independently just as with match plate pattern. This match plate helps in proper alignments of mould cavities in the cope, drag and runner, etc. Match plate patterns are used for larger production and often used when the process is automated.

These are attached to the casting at the right location so that they can continuously supply hot molten metal to the shrinking casting untill it is completely solidified. Delivery of molten metal is mostly accomplished by Gating System. Where as reserve metal is supplied by risers or heads. Both functions can be served by either of two. Hence no clear - cut distraction can be made. Classification: (i) Parting Gate (ii) Branch Gating (iii) Step Gate (iv) Horizontal Gating Design of gating system: The following formulas should be kept in mind while designing of gating system. (a) Bernoulli's equation p v2 - = - +h = constant pg 2g Where, p = pressure, v = velocity of liquid h = head, p = density of liquid (b) ContinuityLaw: Flowrate Qr=A, VI =A2 V2 where, A = Area of cross - section V = Velocity ofliquid (molter n metal) Time taken for pouring: volume of mould cavity Pouring time (t) = Ag ~2gH Where, A_g_= area of gate Design or Sprees: Area of ratio (R)= ~ = ~: Riser is a cavity made in mold to compensate the shrinkage arises in casting and acts as a reservoir of molten metal. Gating: Gating design must control the phenomenon in such a way that no part of the casting is isolated from active feed channels during the entire freezing cycle, it is reffered to as a directional solidification. The degree ofprogressive solidification RISER AND GATING DESIGN In this process molten metal loses heat to the surrounding atmosphere and changes its state from liquid to solid, if conductivity of mould is higher it acts as the center of nucleation and crystal growth commences from the mold and extends towards the center. We can say, solidification occurs by nucleation of minute crystals or grains, which then grow under the influence of crystallographic and thermal conditions. The size ofthese grains get affected by the composition of alloy and its cooling rate. During solidification heat is being extracted from the molten metal as soon as it enters the mold. This heat is called super heat. The latent heat of fusion is also evolved during solidification and it must be transferred to the surrounding mold before complete solidifications can be achieved. Thus there are three stages of cooling i.e. liquid-solid and solid Solidification Properties (i) Fluidity: The ability of filling all parts ofmold cavity is known as fluidity. (ii) Hot cracking: During cooling process a part of casting may be placed under tension and these tensile stresses are greater when the metal is weak and thus ultimately metal gets cracks. Ifthere is a relatively large reduction in temperature during subsequent solidifications, thermal contraction may cause cracking. (iii) Effect ofInocculation: It is a process in which the properties and structures of casting are enchanced by adding another material (metal or non-metal) to the molten metal before pounng. SOLIDIFICATION AND COOLING (iv) hanging over core (v) Wire core Core molding: Cores are made separately in a core box made up of wood or metal. cores are made by two ways (i) manually by hand and (ii) by using core making machines. Characteristics of cores: (i) Permeability: Cores are made more permeable than the mold to achieve, good permeability. Coarse sand & fine sand in a specific quantity are mixed with molasses. (ii) Collapsibility:- Core should possess good collapsibility so that it can be easily removed from the casting after solidification without making any damage to the casting. (iii) Strength:- Core should possess enough strength so that it should not be de-shaped during placing in mold or during the molten metal pouring. (iv) Thermal Stability:- Core material should have good thermal stability so that it can withstand the high temperature during casting process. A-1SlProduction Engineering Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2
  • 185. CASTING DEFECfS: (i) Un - filled section: - This happens due to insufficient metal pouring at lower temperature than required. (ii) Blow holes or porosity: - This defect happens, if molting temperature is too high and non -uniform cooling on the permeability of molding sand is low. (iii) Shrinkage: - Some time after solidification the casting gets reduced in size at surface or internally which is known as shrinkage defect. Normally it happens due to improper inside the mould, often pouring after cooling process when molten metal gets solidified casting comes out after breaking the mold. Trimming: During casting process some extra material remains attached with casting, this excess material removed from casting is known as trimming. (b) Die casting: - In this process cope and drag are replaced with metal die. Molten metal is poured into cavity, made in metal dies. (c) Pressure - DieCasting: - In this process molten metal poured in metal die along with a specific pressure. This pressure application enhance casting finishing and increase production rate. (d) Slush Casting: - In this method molten metal is poured into the mould and began to solidify at the cavity surface. When the amount of solidified material is equal to the desired wall thickness, the remaining slush is poured out the mould. As a result slush casting is used to produce hollow part without usmg core. (e) Plaster Mold Casting - In this method sand is replaced with plaster of paris is rest the process is similar to sand casting method. (f) Investment Casting: - In this method a mould is made of ceramic by using a wax pattern. When molten metal is poured into mould wax get melted and replaced by molten metal. It is mostly used for casting of (S.S), Aluminium alloy and magnesium alloys etc. (g) Centrifugal Casting: - In this process mold kept rotating at high speed and molten metal poured from centre of axis of mould. Then molten metal due to its moment of inertia moves towards inner wall of moving mould and due to light weight ofimpurities present in molten metal segregated and collected near the axis of rotation, which enables to make more pure casting having higher accuracy and lowest impurities. (h) Continuous Casting: - In continuous casting process molten metal is poured from a specific height in a vertical mould. This vertical mould kept cooling facilities so that the casting continuously cooled down. This process is mostly used for casting pipes, rod and sheet of brass, bronze copper, aluminium and Iron etc. (i) Shell mould casting: - This process is similar to sand casting method except the molten metal is poured into an mold having thin walled shell created from applying a sand resin mixture around a pattern. The pattern used in this method can be re- use to make many mold. This process is mostly used for casting carbon steel, alloy steel etc. Steps involved in sand casting: (i) Mould making: - In the process expendable sand is packed around the pattern, which is a replica of the external shape of the casting when the pattern is removed, the cavity that will form is used for casting. Any internal feature of casting that cannot be made by pattern that is made by separate cores. (ii) Clamping: - Once the mould has been made, it must be prepared for the pouring of molten metal. So the surface of the mould cavity is first lubricated to facilitate the removal of the casting, then the cores are positioned and the mould halves are closed and securely clamped together. It is essential that the mould halves remains securely closed to prevent the loss of any material. (iii) Pouring: This process involves pouring of molten metal in to mould in such a way that all section ofmould fills properly. This can be checked by rising level of molten metal in the risers. (iv) Cooling: This process involves cooling of molten metal CLASSIFICA nON OF CASTING (a) Sand Casting: In this process a cavity is made in a sand mold by using desired pattern and then after molten metal poured into mould. Which is after solidification known as casting. There are two main types of sand used for moulding Green Sand and dry sand. In green sand un-burned sand mixed with proper amount of clay as it binds and moistens and when the sand is mixed with binding material other than clay and moisture is known as Dry Sand. Application ofSand Casting: 1. It is mostly used for cheapest casting process to maintain low production cost. 2. Complex geometrical shape can be easily made by the process. 3. Sand casting method is used for producing very heavy parts like fly wheel of power press, Railway wheel etc. 4. Many large structures are produced by this method like engine blocks, engine manifolds cylinder heads and transmission cases etc. a (f) Caini's formula: R p = -- +c RY-b where, a = Freezing characteristic constant b = Contraction ration from liquid to solid c = Relative freezing rate of river and casting where, c = constant, V = volume, A = surface area (A/V) casting (d) Relative freezing time (Rp) = (A IV)river (R) Vriver (e) Volumeratio V = V . castmg Production EngineeringA-182 Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2
  • 186. Metal attains plastic state when an external force is applied along its length accross of its cross-section. Which results in increase in its dimensions at right angle to the direction of applied force with a corresponding reduction in its length, parallel to the direction of applied force. Normally bar stocks are used for being jumped by a desired amount so that this part can be given a desired shape through the jumped further operations. The jumping operation can be performed in any localised area i.e., the particular part in the bar shape, where said increase in cross-section is desired is heated till it acquires a plastic state. Than the length which do not required to be jumped cooled abruptly by quenching in water, and the hot portion is placed under suitable load. This operation may carried out manually ifthe work peice is small enough to handle and when heavy force is required (such as in large work peice) heavy hammer is used called as sledge hammer. The objects of cooling the bar length, which is not to bejumped out is two fold. Firstly to localised the reduction in length to the desired extent and secondly to prevent the bar from bending during up setting due to heavy blows. ~~~ force application C = Specific heat of molten metal 8p = Molten metal pouring temperature 8f= Cooling temperature of metal 80 = Initial temperature of mould (i) Hot forging: Hot forging may be defined as a process in which metal is heated up to its plastic state and then a suitable external pressure is applied to achieve desired shape and size. The deformation of shape of metal depends on the type of force applied on it. If the force is applied along its length the cross-section will increase on the cost ofreduction of its length. Similarly if the force is applied against its length the length will increase and the cross-sectional area will decrease. Forging may be used to bend the work piece. Without change its length along with using suitable die- and punch etc. In forging process external force may be applied by hand hammer, power operated hammers, and presses etc. If the force applied bymannually by hammers this process is known as smithy process. Classification of forging: Forging may be classified into following types (a) Upsetting (b) Drawing out or drawing down (c) Bending (d) Setting down (e) Forge Welding (a) Up setting: In this process cross-section of work piece is increased with corresponding reduction in its length.

(iv) Hot tears: - Too much shrinkage mostly causes cracks internally and on external surface known as hot tears. It happens due to improper cooling, and over ramming of molding sand, etc. (v) Mis-Run: - When molten metal fails to reach at every section of mold then some sections remains un-filled known as mis- run. (vi) Cold shut: - When molten metal comes from two or more paths into the mould and during meeting these different flow if not fuse together properly is known as cold shut. (vii) Inclusions: - Any un-wanted metallic / non-metallic waste present in casting is known as inclusion thus inclusions may be slag of sand oxides or gases etc. (viii)Cuts and washes: - These defects occurs due to erosion of sand from the mould or core surface by molten metal. (ix) Shot metal: - This defect appears in the form of small metal shots embedded in the casting which are exposed on the fractured surface of the latter. It happens when the molten metal is poured into mould particularly when its temperature is relatively lower. Itmay splash the small particle separated from the main stream during the spray and thrown ahead and solidified quickly to form the shots. A-183Production Engineering Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2
  • 187. The process ofextrusion consists of corresponding a metal inside a chamber to force it out through a small opening calleddie.Anyplasticmaterial canbeextrudedsuccessfully. Most of the process used for extruding metals are hydraulically operated horizontal presses. A large number ofextruded shapes are in common use, such as tubes, rods, structural shapes and lead coveredcables. The principle of operation are the same forboth hot and cold extrusion, and choice of one ofthese is governed by factors like the metal to be extruded, thickness of extruded section size of raw material being used, capacity of press, and type of product etc.billetsof 125mm to 175mm in diameter and 300to 675 mm lengthare in generalusedasrawmaterial forextrusions of steel needs adequate lubrication around the billet. This is done by providing a coating of fine glass powder over the surface ofhot billet. The process ofextrusion suits best to the non ferrous metals and alloys although some steel alloys like stain less steel are also extruded. The extrusion process can be classified as follows (1) Direct or forwardextrusion (2) Indirect or backwardextrusion Direction Extrusion: As shownin the figurebelow,Inthisprocess billetofrawmetaltobe extrudedisheatedtoitsforgingtemperature and forced in the machine chamber, this forcepush forward the billet and billet passed through the die.

Which the result, further oxidation ofiron is checked. There are three types ofweldedjoints in commonwhich are • Butt weld:When two bare are made tojoin end to end bywelding, such that joint formation is at right angles to the lengths of the work piece it is known" as butt weld. • Scarf weld:This is alsoknown as lapweld.Itisknown so for the reason that the ends of the metal pieces to be joined are made to overlap each other and then hammered.Thusthe weldformationis atan inclination with the top and bottom faces of the joined pieces. Also due to the distinct end preparation it is easy to apply correct pressure by hand hammering in proper direction. • "V" weld: Itis also known with somany names e.g. split, spliceor fork etc. Itis employedwhere a highly strong weldedjoint isneededparticularlyin heavyworkwhere the greater thickness ofthe job enables the formation of =v: easily, to ensure perfect joining of metals the scarf of one piece should be made rough byproviding steps on it. (b) Drawing out or drawing down: This process is exactly a reverse process to that ofup setting orjumping in the sense that, contrary to the latter, it is employedwhen a reduction in thickness or width on is desired with a corresponding increase in its length. In this process specificshape oftools also required to achieve the desire shape, known as pair of sewageand fullerthe selectionofthe abovetoolsisgoverned by the shape of the cross-section of the stock, the Rod or bar heated up to pre-determined length to the plastic state followedby the coolingofthe unwanted length fordrawing by sudden quenching in water. Ifthe bar is ofrectangular or square cross section it is laid flat on the anvit face and hammered bythe peen of cross-peenhammers bythe limit. Ifthe reduction is to be done both in width as well as in thickness the operation is repeated by turning the bar at 90°. The desired result can be more quickly achieved by keeping the bar on the edge or hom of the anvit and then drawing. (c) Bending: Bending of bars, flats and other simillar stock material is usually done in smithy shop, this can be doneto produce different types of bent shapes such as angle, ovals and circles etc.Anydesired angle or curvature can be made through this operation. For making a right angle bend that particular portion of stock, which is to be subjected to bending, is heated and jumped on the outer surface. This provides an extra material at that particular place which compensates for the elongation ofthe outer surface due to hammering during bending. This operationis carriedout on the edge of a rectangular block. After bending, the outside bulging is finished by means of a flatter and the inside by means of a set hammer, this process can be made by mannually or by using forging. Machine along with jigs and fixture. (d) Setting down: Inthe operationthrough which the rounding ofa comer is removed, to make it square, bymeans ofa set hammer. By putting the face of the set hammer over the round portion, formedby fullering or bending ofthe comer and hammering it at the top reduction in thickness takes place resulting in a sharp and square comer. Finishing is the operation through which the un-evenness of a flat surfaceisremovedbymeans ofa flatteror a sethammer and round stems are smoothened to the correct shape and required size by means of sewage after the job has been shaped roughly to the finished size through other operations. (e) Forge welding: In this processtwopeiceof simillar metals are heated properlyup to sufficientwelding heat andjoined together by application of external heat, two important considerations are always made in order to get a sound weldedjoint. (i) Proper end preparation of the metal peices to bejoint (ii) Rising the temperature of the prepared ends to the correctweldingheat. The surfacestobejoined together should be quite clean i.e., they should be free from scale, dirt or ash. Otherwise this presence will lead to thefailureofthejoint.

Classification fo Welding According to Application of Pressure (a) Non-pressure welding/fusion welding: In this process of weldingthe temperatureofjoining edgeofmetalsare heated Welding is a process ofjoining two or more than two similar or dissimilar metals together with or without use of pressure, and filler materials. Without use of external heat we get success in welding ofGold and Silver onlytill today but in future the use of temperature in welding may be reduced considerably. Welding process may be classified as follows: (i) Homogeneous welding: In this method two similar metals are joined together by welding and use of filler of same material ifrequired. For example,mild steelwith mild steel welding this process is also known as autogenous welding. (ii) Hetrogeneous welding: In this method, welding is done with two dissimilar metals and the filler metal used in this processis usuallykept, oflow meltingpointthan the parental metals. For example copper and brass, mild steel and cast iron etc. WELDING The most common coldextrusionsprocessis impactextrusion, in which soft and ductile metal is used to formed various product like tubes for tooth paste, lotions, shaving cream, paints and condenser cans etc. The raw material used is in slug formhaving been either turned from a bar or punched out of a strip. The operation is performed with the help of a punch and a die. The prepared slug is in the die and struck from top by the punch operating at high pressure and speed. The metal flows up along the surfaceofthe punch, forming a cup shapedcomponent.When the punch moves up. Compressed air is used to separate the component from the punch. In the mean while a fresh slug is fed into the die. The production rate is quite high about 60 componentsper minute. Mostlywall thickness produced from 0.7 mm to 0.1 mm but onlysoftand ductilematerial canproduced bythis processlikelead,tin, aluminium,zinc,and respectivealloys etc. Uniform diamensions, low scrap production and high production capacity is main advantage ofthis process.Although Die and punch are used in like drawing process but its high production rate, and tolerance of the order of ± 0.762 mm up to 12.7mm diameter and± 0.127 mm upto 25 mm dia can be easily obtained. COLD EXTRUSION The rod is fed up to stops through straightening rolls, cut to size and pushed into the header die. The rod is gripped in the die and punch operates on the projectedpart to apply pressure and form the head. The bending operation may be completedin a single or two strokes. Automatic machines for producing bolts and screw are also available in which all the operations like cutting stockto size, shank extrusion, heading trimming and threading etc. are performed simultaneouslyto produce finished components. The processis also successfullyadoptedforproducingrivetsand nails. This is a cold up-setting process adopted for large scale production of small cold up set parts from wire stock. A few examples of such parts are small bolts rivets, screws, pins nails and small machine parts. Small balls for ball bearings are also made by this method. The machine, tool, and dies are almost simillar as in hot forging. COLD FORGING Fig. BackwardExtrusions Advantage and limitations of hot extrusion 1. Dueto application ofhigher pressure a verydense structure is produced. 2. Bettersurfacefinish isproducedhaving higher dimensional tolerence. 3. Low tool cost involves and fast in production rate. 4. Most suitableforproduction ofparts having uniform cross- section having fine surface finish and high dimensional accuracy. 5.

Fig. Forwarded extrusion process It is a usual practiceto leavethe last nearly 10%length ofbilletas un-extruded. This portion is known as discard which contains the surfaceimpurities ofbillet. Indirect Extrusion: As shownin followingfigureram orplunger used is hollow type, and as it pressed the billet against the back wall of the close chamber, the metal is extruded back in to the plunger. As the billet does not move inside the chamber, there is not friction between them. As such, less force is needed in this methodin compressiontothe directextrusion.Amore complicated type of equipment is required because plunger becomes weak due to the reduction in the effective area of cross-section and difficulty is exprienced in supporting the over heating extruded part. part will depend upon the size of the billet and cross-section of the die. The extruded part is then cut to the required length. The overhanging extruded length is fedis to a long support calledthe run out table. A-1S5Production Engineering Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

The work piece is to be weld placed between these electrodes and a high ampere current is passed through them for a limited time till the metal get fused at the place of welding and then appliedsufficientpressurewhichmakecompletethe weldingjoint. This process is mostly used in thin metal sheet welding like domestic utensils, cabinets like structure etc. Important Factors Related to Spot Welding 1. Welding pressure control: For good welding a sufficient pressure application for enough time is veryimportant and this pressure applied for welding is known as welding pressure. This pressure should be applied on job on accurate time of plastic state of metal. Time for pressure application depends upon the thickness and properties of metals to be welded. 2. Time management: It is the total time consumed while completing different stages of welding and it is known as cycletime also. This cycletime must be adjusted in such a manner so that the metal should acquire sufficient plastic stage required for good welding and cut the supply automatically after completing the heating stage. Time control may be managed by different methods like das pot circuitbreaker,electroniccircuitetc. 3. Surface penetration: The surface to be welded should be free from all/dust or any un-wanted materials. So that the penetration of welding joint should be max, min and weld canmake proper. 4. Electrodes: The electrodes must possess mainly these characteristics i.e. high electrical and thermal conductivity and it should have sufficient mechanical strength to with stand high pressure to which they are subjected.These are made water cooled. The surface of electrodes must be easily cleanable so that the resistance between the surface of electrodes and work metal should be kept minimum. Electrodes are mainly made up of copper alloys with molybdenum and tungsten. Spot welding process may further be classified into following types depending on their application. (a) Rocker arm type: Themachineusedin spotweldingprocess consists ofone fixedelectrode and other movableelectrode which is mounted on a rocker arm and moved in up and down direction by mechanical arrangements. In some machinemechanicalarrangementispoweredwithhydraulic systemto make more automated system. (b) Press type: In this types machines are used in heavy or thick sheet welding and movable electrode is operated electrically or by compressedair. (c) Portable Guns: In manyplaces it is notfeasibletotransport hence forthat purpose a portable machine is required. This Portable Gun carries two electrodes and the transformer is supported generally on overhead rails. Mainly it is used in automobile industry. (B) Seam Welding Itis series ofcloselyspacedor single line spotwelding. The weld shape for individual spot may be of any shape like round or rectangular. In this process, two circular disc shaped electrodesFig. Spotwelding Movable +-- Electrode Spot welding (A) Spot welding: Welding machine used in this type of welding consists of two cylindrical pointed electrodes, out of them one electrode is kept fixed and other electrode is movable. CLASSIFICATION OF RESISTANCE WELDING up tomeltingpointandwhenit startstomeltthefillermaterial is filled between joints. For example-Gas welding, Arc welding,Electricbeamwelding and Thermit welding etc. (b) Pressure welding: In this process of welding two edge to be joined are heated up to their plastic state and then sufficientpressure is applied till the weld is performed. But no-fillermaterialisusedcommonlyinthereweldingprocess. For example-Forgewelding, Resistancewelding etc. Classification of Welding on the Basis of Heat Source (a) Chemical welding: According to chemical method, heat is produced by oxidation or may be burning of coal and gas etc. Heat is also produced by chemical reaction of two or more saltstogether.For exampleiron oxide and aluminium powder produced heat by chemical reaction. This method of heat generation are employed in forge welding, gas weldingand thermit welding. (b) Electric welding: These proceses use electrical energy to produce heat required to melt the work piece. Electrical energy based joining process may further classified as follows: (i) Electric arc welding: In an open circuit when resistance of air gap between two terminals of conductors is less than the quantity of current/voltage carrying acrossthem, the electronswilljump fromone terminal to another.This is calledjumping ofelectrons and due to this arc a high temperature generates at bothterminals which is about3700°C-4000°C. (ii) Resistance welding: In this method heat is produced when sufficient quantity of current is passed through a conductor having proper resistances. For example spot welding, projection welding etc. (iii) Induction welding: In this methodheat isproducedby use of high frequency current to produce sufficient eddy current in the workpiece to be weld. (c) Mechanical method: This methodis rarelyused inmodem practice because the heat production in this method is very low as compared to energy applied as heat produced by friction or heavyblow/impact load etc. Production EngineeringA-186 Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2
  • 190. This method of welding involves the use of stored electrical energy either in reactors, capacitors or storage batteries etc. In percussion welding the heat for welding is secured simultaneously over the complete area of abutting surface from an arc produced by rapid discharge of stored electrical energy followed immediately by application of pressure. Percussion welding permits welding harden steels without affecting heat treatment and dissimilar metals can be weld successfully like steel with Mg etc. Fig.Resistance flash welding Due to this small gap, a flash developed between the ends which produce a high heat at both ends and metal at both ends gets melted, after this melting sufficient pressure is applied on movable clamp and both ends get fused and welding joint gets completed. The flash developed at the ends of work piece only on a small part of it, so comparatively less electric current consumed. It is more faster process then the resistance butt welding and no facing at ends of metal required in this method. During welding, slug and remaining molten metal comes out from the weld joint, so weld joint made by this method is more stronger than resistance butt welding joint. These resistance butt and flash welding processes are limited on the capacity of clamping size of welding machine and the material coming out from the joints need extra machining etc. which may increase production cost of welding. PERCUSSION WELDING Fixed clampMovable clamp Work Piece In resistance butt welding the metal to be weld should have equal cross section and properly faced at their respective ends. For welding wires and rods up to 12.7 mm diameter the machine may be used as spring operated and for larger diameter high pressure is mostly applied hydrauliceley or pneumatically. Resistance butt welding may be used to increase length of pipes, rodes, wires and bars of highly conductive material like copper, brass and aluminium etc. (E) Resistance Flash Welding It is almost similar to resistance butt welding except that it is operated comparatively on less current. In this method, current is switched on before abutting the ends of bar etc. and then the movable clamp is transported towards the fixed clamp containing another metal piece maintaing small gap between both mating ends. Fig.Resistance Butt welding Fixed clamp Work Piece /-:Movable clamp i Fig.Line diagram of Seam welding The machine used in seam welding is almost similar to spot welding except it contains circular disc shaped electrodes attached with revolving mechanism between two circular disc like electrodes one powered by rotating force is known as drive and another kept movable is known as driven. The pressure applied on driving wheel electrode by hydraulically or phenumatically. The seam welding is mostly used for metal having sufficient electrical resistivity. For example mild steel, tin plates and many dissimilar metals like steel with brass and bronze. Seam welding may be further classified as circular type, longitudinaltype, universaltypeandportabletype. (C) Projection Welding This welding is almost similar to spot welding except of having any projection on both faces of electrodes. So it is most effectively used in mass production of multi point spot welding in single stroke as desired projection. (D) Resistance Butt Welding Resistance butt welding has similar working principle of welding as in spot welding except that electrodes are in clamp shape in which one clamp is fixed type and another is movable type. The job to be weld are normally bars, pipes, wires etc. One piece to be weld kept in fixed clamp and other clamped in movable clamp. Both metal pieces are faced (finished at ends) properly. Then movable clamp containing working metal (steel pipe) is so adjusted that both ends meet together which are to bewelded. After properly meeting ends of metal ,the current is switched to till corresponding ends of metals are reached to the fusion point. Continuous line of welding joint are used out of which one is kept moving and other kept only movable but not joined with any moving arrangement. The work piece is placed between these electrodes and current is passed through these electrodes. This current carrying electrode when rotates the work piece moved forward and a continuous line of spot welding performed. A-1S7Production Engineering Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2
  • 191. 16. 15. 14. 13. Fig. Different weaving styles As per requirement of joint, there are different weaving styles as shown in above figure. Arc length: Arc length may be defined as the distance of electrode tip from work metal during welding process. Actually it is better known by practices about the correct length of Arc. The distance between the electrode tip and work metal depends upon the voltage and current used for various welding process. Normally about 3 mm distance is assumed as correct distance, less than 2 mm is counted as short Arc length and above 3 mm upto 6 mm is known as long Arc length. Blow holes: It is a type of defect formed during welding process due to presence of any impurity or air bubbles or any space remains un-filled by molten metal during welding process. Buckling: It is also a type of defect. When work metal is twisted or deshaped in un-wanted direction during welding the process is known as buckling. Hard facing: Hard facing may be defined as the process of hardening the surface by welding process. Heat affected zone: During welding process some time weld metal looks separated from work metal, it happens due to improper heating. This effect is called Heat affected zone or we may say the place had been effected by improper welding heat. 12. Motion of Electrode 11. 10. 9. 8. welding due to development of magnetic field around. It generally happens in D.C. arc welding due to having fixed polarity. Arc blow generally occurs in three directions forward, backward and side. Arc crater: Itmay be defined as the penerat ions of arc in base metal, it depends upon arc length, electrode width and thickness of base metal. Spatter: Molten metal dispersed around the welding beads in small drops form is known as spatters. Chipping: Removing the spatters and slage etc. formed on welding bead on metal surface during welding is known as chipping. The slage is formed as a by-product due to use of coated electrode in welding process. Edge preparation: For making different types ofjoint, some side of work metal has to be grinded in specific shape and size. The grinding at edge/side of work piece is known as edge preparation. Weaving of electrodes: This term is related with forward motion of welding electrode on the surface of welding plane. Weaving means tilting of electrode simultaneously along with forward motion of electrode. This is used for increasing width of deposition of molten metal over weld. 7. 5. Polarity: This term is mainly associated with D.C. arc welding because, D.C. current has fixed polarity i.e. + ve and - ve terminal and for the A.C. they interchanged at every cycle. It may be classified as follows. (i) Straight polarity: Work piece made positive terminal and the electrode is made negative terminal, it is used for more thick plates etc. (ii) NegativepolaritylReverse polarity: Workpiece is made negative terminal and electrode is made positive terminal, it is used for thin plates welding. The polarity have a considerable effect in welding because heat generated at positive terminal is much more than the negative terminal. Heat generated at positive terminal is about 2/3rd higher than negative terminal. 6. Arc blow: Itmay be defined as the deviation of arc during kW kVA Current used Current supplied Power factor = In this method no external pressure is applied, only the metal to be welded are heated up to welding temperature and a pool of molten metal fills the gap in between the joints, then these joints allow to cool in air and weld get completed. In some types of electric arc welding an additional filler material is applied known as electrode and heat is produced by electric Arc about 3400°C. At initial stage electrode requires potential about 60 - 100 volt and in running condition when a regular arc is produced, it requires only 15 - 45 volt normally to maintain the welding operation. Important Terms Related with Electric Arc Welding 1. Open circuit voltage: This voltage may be called the voltage at electrode when no Arc is formed and machine is in switched on condition generally it remainsant 60 -100 volt. 2. Arc voltage: This voltage may be defined as the voltage of an electrode on electrode when regular Arc is formed during welding operation. Arc voltage = Cathode drop + volumn drop +Anod drop i.e. V=V +V +Vepa 3. Duty cycle: Duty cycle is the time duration up to which that specific machine can supply a specific current and voltage for a specific time duration without making any hazard to a welding machine. 4. Power factor: Itis the relation in between the current used and total current supplied to machine. ELECfRIC ARC WELDING This method is also known as pulsating welding, it is applicable to spot welding, seam welding and butt welding processes. etc. Pulsating welding process consists of applying the current in a series of impulses which may be a fraction of cycle or no. of cycles. This process has certain advantage, for example more thicker materials can be easily welded with same equipments increase electrode life and spettering of welding reduced considerably.

Welding By this process welding of thin sheet is Thin sheet can be easily welded by this capabilities difficult. Welding capability is limited up to process. It has distinct polarities so it is Properties of A.C. and D.C. Arc Welding Metal Arc Welding The basic principle of metal arc welding is the development of electric arc between the metal electrode and work metal. The metal electrode (bare or coated) having sufficiently high ampere current when kept at proper distance to job an electric arc is developed or we can say the high ampere current value over come to the resistance offered by air gap between the electrode and job having different polarity of current. And a certain amount of electrons jump over the work metal surface from electrode which produced a high temperature near about 3400°C. This high temperature is utilised in melting the work metal up to molten stage at joining points and the electrode also melts simultaneously. Melting of work metal at joining make a pool of molten and alongwith in the molten filler metal cover this pool of metal. This covering of molten electrode over pool of molten metal is known as " welding bead". Electrical Energy: Both A.c. and D.C. electrical energy are widely used in arc welding process. Both have some advantages and disadvantages which regulate the use of particular electrical energy for a specific welding. Use of electrical energy also depends on the material of work metal properties of material to be weld like thickness of metal etc. 17. Padding: This is the process of making number oflayers of metal on a used part of metal to increase its dimensions. 18. Penetration: It may be known as depth of fusion during welding process. 19. Slag: When a flux coated electrode is used in welding process then a layer of flux material is collected over welding bead which contains the impurities of weld material. This layer is known as slag. It is removed by chipping of weld. Classification of Electric Arc Welding (A) Metal arc welding: In this welding process the arc is made between work metal and electrode (may be bare or coated electrode). Base electrode is made up of same material but using it having certain disadvantages such as welded surface may be subjected to oxidation. To prevent the oxidation of welding surface, coated electrodes are used. (B) Carbon arc welding: This process is mainly employed with D.C. supply only due to having specified polarity in D.C. supply. A carbon electrode with negative polarity produce arc when close to work metal connected with positive polarity current. Straight polarity connections are made to prevent carrying over of carbon contents over metal surface during carbon electrode fusion. Otherwise deposition of carbon contents may result in a brittle and bad weld. Carbon arc welding is mostly for steel sheet and casting etc. Electrode holders consist of magnetic coil which guide the Arc. This welding process is operated manually or by machine or both.

(b) Natural gas de-composition: It is most popular method It may also be considered under non-pressure fusion welding. The source of heat required for fusion of metal is achieved by flame of suitable gas combustion. It consists of a flow of any suitable gas under specific pressure which gives a flame after burning in presence of oxygen etc. Tools and Equipments In gas welding process different tools and equipments are used. Some of the mainly used are mentioned below: Welding torch - or blow pipe may be defined as the equipment designed formixing oxygenand combustiblegas (acetylene etc.) in required proportion and injecting for combustion and making flame or wemay say that with this equipment we can acquire an adequate mixed proportion of oxygen and acetylene (in oxy- acetylene gas welding) to develop a suitable flame for welding Classification: (a) According to pressure of acetylene gas (i) High pressure welding torch (ii) Lowpressure welding torch (b) According to number oftips used with torch (i) Singletip welding torch (ii) Multiple tips welding torch (c) According to fuel used (i) Acetylene welding torch (ii) Hydrogen welding torch (d) According to application (i) Mannual welding torch (ii) Automatic welding torch Hose pipe: Itis used for supply gases from pressure regulator to weldingtorch.

  • 195. SPECIAL WELDING TECHNIQUIES Some of the special welding techniques are given as follows : (a) TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas welding): It is also known as Gas Tungsten Arc welding (GTAw). This process utilizes a non - consumable tungsten electrode that provides a very intense current to the welding arc. This welding arc provides the required heat to melt the metal. This electric arc is struck between a non - consumable electrode and the metal work piece. The tungsten and weld puddle arc given a protective enviroment and also cooled with the help of an inert gas (eg. argon). A welding rod is also ted at joints alongwith filler material and melted with the base metal. In this method ofjoining metals, particularly in the shape of sheet thin wire form, or thin wire with thin sheet like electronic part with PCB. In this method a low melting filler material is used and no fusion takes place in work piece. These filler metal used in this process is known as solder. These are made in various composition depending upon the application and requirement of strength of joint. Some important compositions are as follows: 1. Tin 67% : lead 33% 2. Tin 50% : lead 50% 3. Tin 30% : lead 67% In some process of soldering alloy of copper and zinc to which silver is also added sometimes is known as hard solder. Germal silver, used as a hard solder for steel in an alloy of copper, zinc and nickel, in general the classification of solder in the above two catagories is according to their melting point. Soft solders usually melt at a temperature below 350°C and hard solder above 600°C the operation performed by using a soft solder is known as soft soldering and when using a hard solder is known as hard soldering. In this process work piece is cleaned properly and than a solder ion tool is used in heated condition, which melts the solder and then a suitable flux is applied to joining point. This flux works to prevent the formation of oxidation. Normally zinc chloride is used as soldering flux. The soldering tool is made up in two types one is total iron made which is used by heated in furnace and another is copper tiped placed between electrical elements and the tip is heated electrically. Brazing: Brazing is almost similar to the joining process of soldering except hard solder material is used in place of soft solder and work piece is heated up to red hot in brazing but in soldering process work piece remains cools only soldering material is melted and spreaded over the work piece to make soldering. But in brazing process work piece is heated up to red hot condition and then after hard solder material is allowed to melt with flux over the joint to be weld. So that solder material get melted and filled the small gap between the joint of work piece to be brazed. Fig. Rightward welding .-V':'ork piece eO o'~/~o~ ~~ev Fig. Leftward welding Rightward welding: In this technique most of heat offlame is absorbed by base metal so it is preferred in welding thick sheet generally 6 mm to 25 mm thick. Rest of flat, vertical, horizontal and overhead welding methods are similar as described in electric arc welding method. Welding ~ torch 2. +-Work Piece 3. Oxidising flame: It can be achieved by increasing percentage of oxygen in natural flame. It is generally used with brass welding. Common Difficulties in Flame Formation 1. Breaking offlame: Looks like burning gas with maintaining some distance from tip of welding torch. It can be rectified by reducing pressure of gas etc. 2. Flickering offlame: In this fault, flame shows flickering. It happens due to increase in moisture contents in acetylene and it can be removed by removing moisture contents from acetylene gas. 3. Popping: In this fault as usual sound like pit-pit comes from welding torch. It can be rectified by regulating the pressure of gas. 4. Back fire: In this fault flame disappear suddenly with an abnormal sound, it happens due to following reasons. (a) Using welding torch less than its recommended pressure (b) When tip of welding torch get two close to job (c) Over heating of tip etc. WELDING METHODS 1.

These inclusion can be removed bygrinding process or any other suitable mechanical process. (b) Under-cut: It can be defined as the notch which is formed due to the melting away the base/parent metal at the toe ofthe weld. It generally increases the stressand also reduces the fatigue strength of the material. It can be prevented by cleaning the metal before welding. It can be repaired with smaller electrode. (c) Porosity: Porosity is devlopedwhen gas bubblesare entraped during cooling of weld pool. It is also devloped due to chemical reactions happened during welding. It can be controlling the welding speed. (d) Incomplete fusion: It is developed when the insufficient heat is provided and the travelling speed ofweld torch or electrode is very fast. It is developed due to lowamperage, steep electrode angle short arc gap, lach of pre-heat etc. It can be repaired by removing and rewelding. (e) Overlap: Overlaping in welding is caused due to improper welding technique, steepelectrodeangle and fast travel speed. It can be prevented byusing a proper welding technique. (f) Underfill: It is developedwhenjoint is not completely filled bywith weld metal. It is caused by improper welding technique. It can prevented by applying proper welding technique for the weld type and position.

All commercial metals can be welded by this process. It also finds its application in automotive repair. MIG can also be incorporated into robotics. Some more applications are rebuilding equipment, overlay of wear resistant coating, welding pipes, reinforcement of the surface of a worn out rail road tracks. Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding Adavantages : (i) It can work in all positions according to the need. (ii) it has a high deposition rate (iii) It requires less shilled labour Gas Tungsten are (TIG) welding (GTAW) Advantages : 1. It produces, perfect, precise welds with suitable selection of proper welding rods and wires. 2. It has the capability to weld various metals. Most of the common metals or alloyslike mild steel, Stainless steel,titanium, aluminium and copper. 3. It uses a lesser amount of amperage as comparedwith other processes. 4. It is a clear welding process and does not leave any deposite over weld pead. 5. It has a high value of controlability 6. TIG welds are strong, ductile and resistant to corrosion. (b) MIG (MetalInert Gas welding) : It is generally regarded as a high deposition rate welding process. In this process, consumable electrodes are used, which is generally in the form of coiledwire fedby a motor drive to argon shielded arc. Wire is consistently fed from a spool.Ahigh value of current densities arc utilized. The diameter ofwire is keptgenerallywithintherange of0.80mm to 2.30mm. The consumable electrode in this process serves two purposes (i) its acts as a source for the arc column (ii) It also acts as the supply for the filler material. The shielding gas in this process, forms the arc plasma, stabilizes the arc on the metal being welded, shields the arc and molten weld pool, and allows smooth transfer of metal from the weld wire to molten weld pool.

Metal may be removed either in chips form or in fine powder form like metal removed form is tabulated as under: (b) Magnetic particle testing: It is used to defect surface discontinuities in materials like iron, cobalt, nickel and their alloys. A magnetic field is produced into the component to be tested. The magnitization of the component can be done directly or indirectly. Itthe defects are present in the component after magnetization, then the defects will create a leakage field. After magnetization, iron particles are applied to the surface of the component. The particles will be attracted and aggregate near leakage fields, thus giving an indication of defect. It is used in gas pipe welding. (c) Ultrasonic testing: (UT) In this testing, ultrasonic waves are propagated in the component to be tested. The very short ultrasonic wave of frequencies ranging from 0.1- 15MHz and upto 50 MHz are used for the purpose of defection of internal flows or cracks. In ultrasonic testing, electrical pulses are converted into mechenical vibrations and the returned mechanical vibrations arc converted into electrical pulses. Adevice called transducer converts electrical energy into mechanical vibrations. In this testing,a propr (Connected to ultrosonic machine) is passed over the surface of the component to be tested. As the wave travels through the materical, from the defective location, the wave get reflected. The transducer picks up the signals and CRT (cathode Ray Tube) screen records the pulse - height pattern. The spacing between pulses and height of pulses are interpreted for the purpose of finding the correct location of cracks in the component. (d) Radiographic testing: (RT) In this testing, the hidden flows are defected by using the ability of short wave length electromagnetic radiation to penetrate various materials. Radiographic Testing method reveals the surface and sub-surface defects. (NOn NON - DESTRUCTIVE TESTING (FORWELDING) It is defined as the process of testing the welded components for discontineities, cracks, inclusions, spatters penetrations, undercuts, porosity etc. In this type of test, the component is not destructed and after testing the component, it can be further used. Some important kinds ofNDT (non-destructive testing) are given as : (a) liquid penetrant test: It is also known as Dye penetrant test or penetrant test. It is utilized for the purpose of detecting the surface detects, porosities, cracks etc in welding components. In this test, the material (component) is first cleaned and coating is applied with a fluorscent dye solutions. The excess solution after some time (dwell time) is removed. The bleedout is easily detected in visible dyes while fluorescent dyes are view with an ultrovoilet lamp. (g) Spatter: It is developed due to high power arc, magnetic arc blow and damp electrodes. It can be prevented by reducing arc power, arc length and by using dry electrodes. (h) Incomplete penetration: Itoccurs due to low amperage, low preheat, tight root opening, short arc length and fast tra vel speed. (i) cracks: The development of cracks results in the pre- mature failure of the parts when they are subjected to dynamic loading conditions. There arc many types of cracks, some ofthem are given as: (a) Longitudinal cracks (b) transverse cracks (c) crater cracks (d) under bead cracks (e) toe cracks These cracks occur when the joint is at elevated temperature or after the solidification of weld metal. These can be prevented by altering the design in joint, altering the parameters, procedures, preheating the component etc. Production EngineeringA-194 Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

The relation motion between tool and work piece can be maintained either bykeeping workpiece stationary and moving to tool or by keeping tool stationary and moving work piece. The cutting action can be classified into following types:- 1. Orthogonal cutting and 2. Oblique cutting. 2. Semi-automaticcontrol. 4. Numerical control. On observing machine tools, we find that it contains many levers, hand wheels, stop switches, drivers etc. All of which are known as the control of machine tool which performs a specific function in every machine tool. All their controls specified are of the following types: 1. Mannual control. 3. Automatic control. The common features of machining process are listed below:- 1. The material of tool should be harder than the work piece to be machined. 2. The tool should be strong enough and hold rigidity on a proper support so that it can withstand the heavy pressure during machinery. 3. The shape of cutting tool should be designed in such a manner that cutting edge produce maximum pressure on work piece. 4. There is always a relative motion oftool with regard to the work or that of the work with regard to the tool or both in relation to each other. Basic Elements of Machine Tool All machine tools do one similar work that of removal of material from work piece and all these machine tools have some common elements as given below:- 1.

CementedCarbide:These are generally used in sintered tips form made up of powder metrology process. These are directly manufactured into desired shape and size and mounted on suitable holders (either by brazing or by clamping, etc.). These holders are normally made by medium carbon steel. It gives better results than satellite and high speed steel. It can be used with four times more cutting speed than high speed steel tools and can retain its hardness up to 1200°C temperature. 6. Ceramics or Cemented Oxides: These are made by applying sintering process with aluminium oxides and boron nitride in powder form. It is also made up in readymade tips form. Which is used after mounted on a suitable tool holder (either by brazing or by fastening). These can easily retain their hardness up to 1200°C temperature and can work 2-3 times faster than tungsten carbide tips. Sometimes these ceramics give more satisfactory results in finishing, etc. than tungsten carbide, etc. Cutting ToolGeometry The different angles provided in cutting tool also plays a significant role in machining process along with the material of tools. Here we give a sketch of single point cutting tool designed for different turning processes. Front View End relif angle~ Side Clearance angle Side Rake -:rangle mentioned below:- 1. High Carbon Steel: High carbon steel shows different hardness with different percentage of carbon contents. It shows BHN hardness from 400-750 with different percentage of carbon. It contains carbon percentage 0.6%- 1.5%normally. But high carbon steel start losing its hardness above 200°C. So, its application is limited in slow moving / operating tools, hand tools and wood working machine tools, etc. For example, hammers, cold chisels, files, anvil, saws, screw drivers, center punch and razors, etc. 2. Diamond:Diamond is the hardest and brittle material but its use is limited due to its high cost. It consists great wear resistance but low shock resistance. So, it is used in slow speed cutting of hard materials like glass cutting tool, grinder wheel, dressing tool and other cutting tools, etc. 3. High SpeedSteel:Itis most commonly known cutting tool material. It contains 18W, 4Cr, 1% V. In some tools, additional cobalt with 2%-15% is also added to increase its hardness up to 600°C.

  • 200. Continuous Chip Formation Work Piece Continuous Chip These type of chips formed in small pieces as shown in figure. This type of chips are produced during machining of brittle material like cast iron and bronze, etc. In machining of brittle materials, shear plane gradually reduce until the value of compressive stress acting on the shear plane becomes too low to prevent rupture along with as the tool advance formed in work piece. At this stage, any further advancement of tool results in the fracture of metal ahead of it, that's why it results in production of segmented chips. In this type of chip formation, excessive load has to withstand by tool which results in poor surface finish of work piece. 2. Continuous Chip Formation Discontinuous Chip Formation Work Piece Types of Chips Chips may be classified as given under:- 1. Discontinuous or Segmental chip. 2. Continuous chip. 3. Continuous chip with built-up edge. 1. Discontinuous Chip The grains of metal in front of cutting edge of tool start elongation the line AB and continue to do so until they are completely deformed along CD. The region between ABCD is known as shear zone. Chip Formation B Work Piece Rake angle: The angle between face of tool and a plane parallel to its base. Ifthis inclination is towards the shank, it is known as back rake angle or top rake angle and if measured along with side is known as side rake angle. These angles reduce the strength of tool's cutting edge. But along with reducing the strength, these angles also through away the chip from the cutting edge, which causes reduction of pressure on cutting edge of tool. Negative rake: When these angles are made in reverse direction to the above are known as negative rake angle. Obviously these angles strengthen the tools but reduce the keenness of cutting edge but these angles are used for extra hard surfaces and hardened steel parts, etc. and used generally carbide tips, etc. Lip angle: Lip angle may be defined as the angle between face and the flank of tool. As the lip angle increases, cutting edge will go stronger. It would be observed that since the clearance angle kept constant, this angle varies inverse to the rake angle. So, when the strong cutting edge is required like for harder material, rake angle is reduced and lip angle increased. Clearance angle: As the name resembles, this angle is made in tool to provide clearance between job and cutting edge of tool. If the angle is provided in side of cutting edge, it is known as side clearance angle and if this angle is given at front of tool it is known as front clearance angle. Relief angle: This angle formed between the flank of tool and a perpendicular line drawn from the cutting point to the base of the tool. Cutting angle: The total cutting angle of the tool is the angle formed between the tool face and a line through the point which is a tangent to the machined surface of the work at that point. Obviously, its correct value will depend upon the position of tool in which it is held in relation to the axis of the job. CHIP FORMA nON Chip may be defined as a thin strip of metal removed from the work piece as the tool progressed into work piece. Like in lathe machine, where job is kept moving and a study tool advanced into it, the metal's thin strip removed from work piece due to its plastic deformation but as the length of chip increase a stress compress the chip and after a limit, this chip gets fractured and removed from work piece. The shearing of metal chip formation does not, however, occurs sharply along a straight line. A-197Production Engineering Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

So, value of R = IF2 + F2 'j f t According to A.S.M.E. cutting manual, tangential cutting force will be as given below:- P = K K TC Ldt --p a RI Tool where, Fn = force normal to machine surface Ff = force acting parallel to the axis of work piece F, = tangential force along work piece Out of these three components, force Ft is the largest and Fn the smallest. In case of orthogonal cutting, only two component force come into play since the value of Fn is zero in that case. In single point cutting turning process, the component Fn- Ff and F, can be easily determined with the help of suitable force dynometer. Thus resultant R can then be calculated from the followingrelationship:- R = IF 2 + F 2 + F 2 'j n f t _._._._._._._._._._ .. _._._.-._._._._._._._ .. ~_. Work Piece -: Cutting force is a very important factor in tool designing like we consider a lathe turning tool, it is a single point cutting tool. The force acting on the tool is the vector sum of three component cutting force mutually at right angle. The resultant cutting force is denoted by (R). CUITING FORCE Showing Built-up edge Due to built-up edge chip formation, surface finish achieved is rough and chance of production in crater on the surface of work piece. Work Piece Built-up Edge As shown in figure, the chip formed in a continuous ribbon form and breaks after a certain length. It happens when ductile material is machined. In this chip formation, minimum load forced on the tool's cutting edge. So, that a better finish is achieved and minimum wear and tear occur in tool edge. 3. Continuous Chip with built-up Edge This type of chip is generally formed during machining ductile material and a high friction exists at the chip tool interface. Dueto high friction, a high temperature generates at melting point of chip and cutting edge of tool. Due to generation of high temperature, chip formed at high temperature. As the cutting proceeds, the chip flows over this edge and up along the face of tool. Periodically, a small amount of the built-up edge separates and leaves with the chip or embedded in the turned surface. Due to this, chip formed is not smooth. When the tool is operating with a built-up edge a short distance, back from the cutting edge, the wear takes the form of cratering of tool face caused by the extreme abrasion of chip. This type of chip formation may be reduced by using proper coolant. Production EngineeringA-198 Badboys2Badboys2 Badboys2

The operationsperformedbydrill machine in addition toproducingholesaretapping, reaming, boring, counter boring, spot facing etc. • Workingprinciple: Alarge amount of forceis exerted bythe rotating edge ofthe drill on the workpiece and then the hole is produced. During driling operation, the metal is removed by shearing and extresion. or we can say, 1t <I> = - + a - 1 = 45° + a - 1 4 face and therefore the chip does not get hardened. 4. The chip separates from work piece at the shear plane. Accounting all above Lee and Shaffer's had developed a slip-line field for stress zone, in which no deformation would occur even if it is stressed to its field point. From all these, both of them had derived the following relationship: IQ= Fe x Vel· EARNST-MERCHANT THEORY It is based on the principle of minimum energy consumption. It states that during cutting the metal, shear should occur in the direction in which the energy requirement for shearing is minimum. The other assumption made by them includes= 1. The behaviour of metal being machined is like that of an ideal plastic. 2. At the shear plane the shear stress is maximum is constant and independent of shear angle (<1». They deduced the following relationship: I~=%-~+II LEE AND SHAFFER'S THEORY It is a theory about analysation the process of orthogonal metal cutting by applying theory of plasticity for an ideal rigid plastic material. The principal assumptions made for this include: 1. The work piece material ahead of the cutting tool behaves like an ideal plastic material. 2. The deformation of metal occurs on a single shear plane. 3. There is a stress field within the produced chip which transmits the cutting force from the shear plane to the tool Area (1) = Primary deformation area Area (2) = Tool chip interface Area (3) = Tool work piece interface Assuming that all work done is converted into heat, then the heat generated we have (Q), where Wm = Fe x v, then we have, 3 WorkPiece Source of Heat in Metal Cutting ...(2) Fe x Vc kw 4500 x 1.36 ...(1) Fe x Ve Power = H.P. 4500 . .
