Control of Boiler Operation using PLC-SCADA Mechanical 2011 Project

Introduction to the Control of Boiler Operation using PLC-SCADA Mechanical 2011 Project:

In the industrial sector esp. power plants, the demand for high quality, efficiency and automated machines is increasing. Power plant units need to be closely monitored and supervised on a regular basis. In this Project “Control of Boiler Operation using PLC-SCADA Mechanical 2011 Project” the focus is on automating the boiler which is a crucial component of the power plant.

If we are going for automation it is also necessary to design a system that monitors the system and minimizes human errors. The system used her is SCADA-Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition which monitors and PLC (Programmable logic controller) that is used for internal instruction storage and implementation of functions such as sequencing, timing etc to control via digital I/O modules of various types of machine processes.

Description Of This Mechanical Project:

       PLC is used for achieving desired control through software programs. At the start of every cycle, the CPU the input signals from the module are stored in internal memory which is called PII. Once this PII (Process Input image) is read, the pointer of the CPU moves in the ladder program. The result of user program is stored in CPU and this is called as PIQ-Process output image. The CPU then transfers signal from PIQ to the output module and finally to the field control.

         The SCADA control system used in this system is used at the supervisory level. This may be done automatically or through operator commands. The data is obtained first by PLC’s scanning of all the field inputs that are connected to PLC. The data is scanned and processed to detect alarm conditions and if present it will display it on special alarm’s lists.

Conclusion:

          This Project Control of Boiler Operation using PLC – SCADA has tracked all the changes that have been taking continuously in the industrial sector. Stress is been given to automation of services that is happening all over the globe. In the future, further progress can be made in the purification and air circulation process.

Synthetic Oil Technology Mech Projects Idea

A motor oil is an engine oil which is employed for lubrication of internal combustion engines. The motor oil’s main function is lubrication but besides that cleaning, inhibition of corrosion and other such functions are also carried out. This paper “Synthetic Oil Technology Mech Projects Idea” explains about synthetic oil and its terminology in detail.

The main point of difference between motor oil and synthetic oil lies in their molecular structure. In the case of a motor oil, the molecules originate from organic and natural materials whereas synthetic oil’s molecular structure has a uniform set of molecules that is created by scientists in lab.

Description:

In the paper on it is explained that the synthetic oil consists of three main parts. The first component is the base oil. The second component is the carrier oil. It is the carrier oil that disperses these powdered performance additives throughout the base oil. Then the third component is the performance additives which are in powder form. They are four point depressants, viscosity index improvers, detergents and dispersants and oxidation corrosion inhibitors.

Along with this, the various terminologies associated with synthetic oils are also discussed. However, synthetic oils are very expensive as compared to motor oils. But as it is a creation by scientists in the labs, many changes and variations are to be had in the molecular structure for applications in day to day products.

Synthetic Oil Technology Mech Projects Idea Conclusion:

By this paper, we learn that the advantage of this new concept is its ability to get back into the soil with less negative impacts. A typical motor oil if spilled would need to undergo special treatment facilities. On the other hand for a synthetic oil, a simple process is sufficient because of its biodegradable nature. Thus the study of synthetic oils is required.

Solar Sails Mech Project Report for Students

A Solar Sails Mech Project Report for Students is basically a large mirror that reflects sunlight. When the photons of sunlight strike this sail and reflect back they push the sail by providing a momentum to it. As there are large numbers of photons and continuously strike on the sail, there is a pressure developed on the sail. This generates a constant acceleration in the spacecraft.

Though the force exerted on the solar sail is quite less than the chemical rocket, it develops acceleration and achieves a high velocity. For optimum working, the sail should occupy a huge area for effective capture of sunlight. The direction of the sail can be altered by changing the angle of the sail with respect to the sun. Directivity of the sail towards the sun can be achieved by employing the photon’s pressure that slows down the spacecraft’s speed and enables its orbit to move closer to the sun.

Project Working:

In this paper “Solar Sails Mech Project Report for Students”, when the light from the sun is reflected from the surface of the solar sail, photons are transferred to it. Acceleration develops gradually giving the sail a constant velocity to propel. Thus when a beam of light is pointed at this bright mirror like surface there is reflection of photons.

A solar sail is constructed by designing several reflective surfaces. When this brightened sail is made to face the sun then there is a steady flow of protons which reflects from the shiny surfaces and makes the spacecraft move away from the sun.

Solar Sails Mech Project Report for Students Conclusion:

The most important advantage of this project “Solar sails” is that it can traverse between planets and stars without fuel. They require only a conventional launch vehicle for the spacecraft to go on its path. In the distant future, solar sails can be used for shuttling between planets and interstellar flights.

Safety Airbags in Cars Mech Project Report

There is an increased awareness among people to increase their safety in cars. Until a few months back, only seat belts were used to provide the only form of passive restraint in cars. This has lead to the development of airbags in the cars. These have been under research since many years. This project “Safety airbags in cars” studies this mechanism.

Statistical studies have shown that airbags reduce the risk of casualty in a DFC by approximately 30%. They are also the subject of governments and industry research and tests. They are based on the principle of Newton’s second law of motion. If the objects are not controlled then will continue at the speed of the moving car thereby causing a collision. Airbags slow down passenger’s speed.

Description:

The main parts of an Safety Airbags in Cars Mech Project Report, sensor and an inflation system. The bag is made of a thin nylon material that is folded and fastened to the door or steering wheel. The sensor is used to make the bag to inflate. The inflation system consists of a chemical mixture. The airbag is designed to inflate in conditions of frontal impacts i.e. when the car strikes at a speed of 16 km/hr.

Once the collision takes place, the sensor sends an electric current to the igniter system. This current heats up the filament which ignites the capsule. This in turn ignites the gas generating pellets. The gas tends to expand quickly and airbags start to inflate which break free from a plastic cover in the steering wheel. The total time taken for this process is around 1 second.

Safety Airbags in Cars Mech Project Report Conclusion:

     Air bags are very important as it is absolutely crucial to ensure protection of human life. Thus they must be implemented for saving precious lives and it should be made necessary for automobile manufacturer to implement this mechanism.
