Modelling and Analysis of a Submarine Propeller
-R.Vamshi Krishna ; Y.Srinivasa Reddy; J.Venkatesh; B.Shiva Krishna
— "A propeller fan might be an assortment of fan that transmits control by changing development movement into push. A weight refinement is made between the forward and raise surfaces of the airfoil-molded edge, and a liquid, (for example, air or water) is quickened behind the cutting edge". In this we discussed about the water propeller by using modelling and analysis. Modelling is done by using Catia software and Analysis by using Ansys using low weight material aluminium. By using Ansys we calculated the CFD of a Submarine Propeller. And from this we get to know that when the pressure increased then velocity increases and kinetic energy also increases which helps to produce the thrust. And by using this the submarine will move forward by rotating propellers. Read More...

Intelligent Mines System
-Vishal Vaibhav ; Divyanshu
a land mine is an explosive device concealed under or on the ground and designed to destroy or disable enemy targets, ranging from combatants to vehicles and tanks, as they pass over or near it. The main disadvantage of this type of system is that it is unable to identify whether it is an enemy vehicle/ person or not. It also restricted the movement in peace time so here we want to develop a multipurpose mine system which can be controlled from a command center which will ensure its activation and deactivation. It will be equipped with a smart detection system which will detect the friendly units nearby and will be deactivated if a friendly unit approaches it. So with our project work we are dedicated to provide better defense systems to our armed forces. Read More...

-Nitish B. Nikam
Around 1.2 billion people, or 1 in 6 of the world’s population, are adolescents aged 10 to 19. Studies reveal that there is still considerable number of premature death, illness, and injury among adolescents. Illnesses can hinder their ability to grow and develop to their full potential. Due to several biological and socio-economic reasons adolescent girls needs more attention for better health care. The study focuses on adolescent girls health and menstrual hygiene concerns like age of menarche, sources of information, types of absorbent, problems faced while handling used clothes, restrictions practiced during the mestruation, anemia and its symptoms awareness etc. The beginning of menstruation signifies a landmark event in pubertal development of the adolescent girl. Menstruation and the menstrual cycle are considered by variability in volume, pattern and regularity, which at the earlier stages of the development of the adolescent can create emotional awkwardness particularly to the poorly informed girl. Moreover, the low social status of women in Indian society, culture of shame and silence associated with their reproductive health matters make this a taboo. It is still considered as something unclean or dirty in Indian society and is linked with several perceptions and practices, which sometimes result in adverse health outcomes. This study is an attempt to understand the status of adolescent girl’s health and hygiene in rural parts of Maharashtra. Read More...

Performance Evaluation of Coir Geotextile for Stabilization of Subgrade and Subbase Soil In Rural Roads Construction
-Vishwanath ; MD Nawaz Pasha; Poojarani Reddy; Ragini Bacha; Ritu Rathod
Considerable length of roads planned to be constructed in India under various programmes require construction over poor subgrade soils. The performance of a road largely depends on properties of the subgrade soil. One such subgrade soil often encountered is the black cotton (BC) soil. It is inorganic clay of medium to high compressibility, high shrinkage and swelling property, very hard when dry, but lose its strength completely when in wet condition. As a result of wetting and drying process, vertical movement takes place in the soil mass leading to failure of pavement, in the form of settlement, heavy depression, cracking and unevenness. In order to improve the performance of roads on such soils Coir textile has scope as reinforcement. It is expected that with the inclusion of coir geotextile layer below Granular Subbase (GSB) layer would be helpful in restricting the movement of upper pavement layers due to seasonal moisture variation in subgrade expansive, shrinkable soil. A pilot project plan for implementing the idea has been proposed in the paper. Read More...

We know Pneumatic energy is the readily available and low cost energy. Now-a-days Non-conventional energy system is very essential to the world. So here we are focusing on pneumatic type of energy for this project. The main concept is that the air conditioning effect will get on the basis of suspension system in vehicle. we designed the suspension operated AC system. This system runs on the suspension of the vehicle and will make the air is compress that store is in the receiver. We began to the project by first attempting to come up with an original idea to fit the problem. After coming up with an idea, to increase the efficiency of vehicle, various design processes finalize our project. For this project the conversion of the force energy in to air. The control mechanism carries the air cylinder (vehicle suspensor), quick exhaust valve, Non-return valve and spring arrangement. We have discussed the various applications and further extension also. The initial cost of this arrangement is high. The conventional vehicle suspension dissipates the mechanical energy i.e. potential energy and kinetic energy. In spring potential energy is stored and kinetic energy is wasted. The aim of paper is this wasted energy is compressed by using single acting cylinder by proper an arrangement. The main aim of this paper is the compressed air production using vehicle suspension is given to the air conditioning system. The pushing power is converted into compressed air energy by proper arrangement. A pneumatic single acting cylinder is used for this project to compress the air. The output air from the pneumatic cylinder is collected through quick exhaust valve and non-return valve and this compressed air stored inside the storage tank. After this research we concluded in car there is a lot of fuel burn only for working of A.C. Read More...

Performance Analysis of a Special Purpose Machine to Enhanance the Production of Engine Block
-Mr. Abhijit Rajiv Malekar ; Dr. Mugale U. S.; Prof. Rawat U. M.
Special Purpose Machine Plays very important role in industry to improve the productivity. In this paper we are going to discuss about Horizontal Locus Clearance Milling Machine. The problem associated with the machine was that it was a tedious and time consuming part to mill the locus clearance in the engine block on three different machines. Also the most difficult task was to mill the portion in locus type pattern. Also the time taken for milling operation was quite large and there was a scope in reduction of machining time so by reducing these two parameters of vibration and machining time more output could be achieved. Also in this time intense competition company could not afford any complaints about quality of work. The above problem could be solved by designing a machine having a hydraulic type spindle having milling tool such that angular or rotational motion can be achieved. Though it will increase the cost of designing the new machine it will be nullified by reduction in machining time. Read More...

Progressive Collapse Analysis of RC Building Under Instantaneous Column Removal
-Vinita Saini ; Ms. Lavina Talawale
The structures generally get collapse due to the failure of one or a few structural components which then progresses over the successive of other components. This process is referred as progressive collapse of the structure. Local damage that initiates progressive collapse is called initiating damage. In order to study the collapse in analytical way, loading pattern or boundary conditions are required to be changed so that other structural elements within the structure are loaded beyond their capacity. This leads to development of alternative load paths to initiate the redistribution of loads. A typical model of a 12 storey structure is made on ETABS Software and analysis of reinforced concrete framed structure under critical column removal has been carried using the linear static analysis methods as per the guidelines provided in GSA (2003) and FEMA: 356 guidelines respectively taking into consideration the provisions of IS1893:2002 codes to simulate dynamic collapse problems. The results are then compared for the parameters such as Demand capacity ratio PMM ratio and Robustness indicator were checked for the acceptance criteria provided in GSA 2003.Based on results and comparing DCR values of different beams and columns with acceptance criteria given in GSA 2013 and American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE) 41 [10].

Hydro Chemical Behaviour of Contaminants
-Sudhir Kumar Srivastava
Pollution of ground water originate from either as point source or non-point or diffused source. The sources responsible for water quality deterioration are domestic waste, industrial waste and agriculture practices. Pollution of groundwater from agriculture is the diffuse source of pollution and application fertilizers and pesticides coupled with unscientific management of crops, water, soil and fertilizer, are the additional sources responsible for ground water pollution. A good planning along with scientific approach is required for crop pattern and use of chemical fertilizer to check this diffuse source of pollution. Domestic wastes where the contaminants are leached to the groundwater body from landfills, cesspools, septic tanks and composite pits, Industrial wastes where release of untreated wastewater into the streams, nallahs and open lands are the potential threats to the portability of ground water. These wastes falls under point source pollutants category and can be checked. Hydro-chemical behaviour of the various inorganic contaminants including trace metals, due to the point / non-point sources are therefore receive special attention under the pretext of their distribution in groundwater regime.

Effect of 30% Blend of Honge Biodiesel On Tribological Property of IC Engine Components
-Dr. Venkata Sundar Rao K ; Dr. Shreeprakash B
The performance of an IC engine is determined by brake thermal efficiency and mechanical efficiency of the engine. The mechanical efficiency of an IC engine is proportional to combustion pressure and heat release. The force on the components is an important design parameter in combustion study of IC engines. One of the methods to measure the wear of the mating surfaces is the measurement of the surface textures of the mating surfaces. The surface roughness measurement is done for detect analysis and is measured interms of surface roughness (Ra). It is the topology at a scale on the surface that is texture of the mating parts. The surface roughness value is expressed for relative roughness of the linear profile or surface area. There are several researches undergoing to study the performance of the engines using well-known alternative fuels such as hydrogen, acetylene, natural gas, ethanol used in internal combustion engines. These bio fuels are chemical fuels as the fossil fuels and generate heat to perform mechanical work, hence, are the most desirable alternative to the fossil fuels. In the present study the surface roughness of the IC Engine components has been recorded for diesel and blend of 70% Diesel+30% Honge oil. The use of diesel as a fuel has better tribological properties on the IC Engine components like piston, cylinder liner and piston rings. Read More...

Air Conditioning Using Exhaust of Vehicle
-Ashwani Kumar
A number of irreversible processes in the engine limit its capability to achieve a highly balanced efficiency. By doing so, the heated gases produced from the combustion process can be easily channeled through the exhaust valve and manifold. The large amount of energy from the stream of exhausted gases could potentially be used for waste heat energy recovery to generate power. Various methods to harness the waste heat to produce power effectively had ended up in vain. This project implements a thermoelectric waste heat energy recovery system for internal combustion engine automobiles, including gasoline vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles. The key is to directly convert the surface heat energy from automotive waste heat to electrical energy using a thermoelectric generator (TEG), which is then regulated by a DC-DC Cuk converter to charge a battery using maximum power point tracking. Hence, the electrical power stored in the battery can be maximized. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system can work well under different working conditions, and is promising for automobile industry. Read More...

Thermal Analysis of Composite Break Drum at Varies Temperature
-Machani Satyanarayana
the function of a brake is to control the motion of a machine member or a vehicle. A brake may be used to slow down, stop or hold a load or release a load and control its speed. In the process of performing its function, an effective breaking is required to convert large amount of kinetic energy of the brake components and dissipate it in the form of heat transferred from the brake system. The capacity of any brake depends upon the unit pressure between the braking surfaces, the coefficient of friction and the heat dissipating capacity of the brakes. The brakes must be strong enough to stop the vehicle within a minimum distance in an emergency. Cast iron, steel are the commonly used materials for the brake drum.In the present work an attempt is made to replace the existing cast iron brake drum of a truck with two other materials namely aluminum composite and stainless steel 304. The dimension of the proposed brake drum is considered the same as that of the existing cast iron brake drum. Modeling of the brake drum was done in Auto-CAD software. Steady state and transient analyses was carried out using ANSYS 10.0 software package. For the analysis, four cyclic braking conditions i.e., 30 seconds, 90 seconds, 120 seconds, and 210 seconds are considered to determine the peak temperature developed and thermal deformation. The design constraints considered in this investigation were heat flux and convective heat transfer coefficient. Finally a comparison is made among three different materials considered for the brake drum of a truck in terms of maximum temperature generated, thermal deformation and percentage of weight savings.

The number of vanes, vane angle, Vane curvature, Sauter mean diameter and air velocity are varied for the swirling Airflow. Injector is one of the vital devices in liquid Propellant rocket engine (LPRE).Injector Parameters that play the important role in the performance of liquid propellant rocket engine. There are several mechanisms of liquid atomization such as swirling. The injector internal geometries reviewed are limited to swirler geometry, mixing chamber diameter, mixing chamber length, Aeration hole diameter, discharge orifice diameter and discharge orifice length. Introducing a swirl component in the flow can enhance the propellant atomization and mixing whereas introducing bubbling gas directly into the liquid stream inside the injector leads to finer sprays even at lower injection pressures. Wider spray cone angle is beneficial for widespread of fuel in the combustion chamber for fast quiet ignition and a shorter breakup length provides shorter combustion chamber to be utilized and small SMD will result in fast and clean combustion. This work may aid in the specific inquiry of physical mechanisms relating to the effect of flow states on spray distribution. It is found that improved atomization and mixing performance are a result of increase in swirl number. Read More...

Synthesizing Techniques of Aerogels and Its Application
-Sutram Sunitha
Aerogel is a porous, synthetic, and featherweight material that is derived from a gel whose liquid constituent is removed and replaced by a gas constituent without substantial destruction of the gel framework. These dry solids have very subsided density, extraordinary flexibility, incredible low density, extremely low thermal conductivity, and have large surface areas. Most of the aerogels show amorphous structures that can be examined by X-ray diffraction methods. Aerogels form a new solids class exhibiting revolutionary capabilities. Many drying techniques such as supercritical, freeze-drying, vacuum, ambient pressure, and microwave are considered as the fundamental part of their preparation which already has been used for drying the wet-gel. The three common lighter solid materials are aerogel, cryogel, and xerogel which could be synthesized depending on the applied drying technique. A wide range of peculiar properties are possessed by aerogels; hence various applications have developed from them. Catalysts, thermal insulators, and particle spotters are examples of commercial aerogels that are underdeveloped. As the scientific and engineering community are now more familiar with the strange and unique physical properties of aerogels, more applications are being developed. In this context, we would discuss about various techniques used for synthesizing aerogels and highlight the application of the aerogels. Read More...

Experimental Study on Behaviour of Concrete for Replacement of Fly Ash and Sea Shells as a Substitute to Cement and Coarse Aggregates
-Suryawanshi Vinod Vyankatesh ; Prof. A.N.Shaikh
The project “Experimental Study on Behavior of Concrete for Replacement of Fly Ash and Sea Shells as a Substitute to Cement and Coarse Aggregates†deals with the Eco Friendly approach to the continuously growing construction Industry. Civil engineering practice and construction works in India depend to a very large extent on concrete. Concrete is one of the major building materials that can be delivered to the job site in a plastic state and can be molded in situ or precast to any form or shape. Concrete basic constituents are cement, fine aggregate (sand), coarse aggregate (granite chippings) and water. Hence, the overall cost of concrete production depends largely on the availability of the constituents (and selected additives). Water reacts chemically with cement to form the cement paste, acts as binder holding the aggregate together which is an exothermic hydration reaction. Aggregates are usually described as inert "filler" material of either the fine (sand) or coarse (gravel) variety which are Conventional or Natural Materials. Now a days, we are facing drastic shortage of conventional construction materials, Lack of economical materials, Depletion in Natural materials and day by day it is further increasing so it is required to provide alternative to this condition for Sustainable Development and study proposed some materials can replace these materials efficiently. Seashell and Fly ash are the materials which looks like a waste but these contains Engineering properties which can replace conventional construction materials like Aggregate and Cement. Seashell is a hard, protective layer, a calcareous exoskeleton which encloses, supports and protects the soft parts of an animal (molluscs). As they grow, the shells increases in size which becomes a strong compact casing for the mollusc inside. The major molluscan seashell includes, bivalves such as clams, scallops, and cockle. The hard shells are regarded as waste, which are accumulated in many parts of the country, when dumped and left untreated may cause unpleasant odour and disturbing view to the surrounding. Also the aggregate surface texture influences the bond between aggregate and cement paste in hardened concrete. Thus it opens an investigation into its potential as a partial replacement of coarse aggregate. Fly ash is a black finely divided residue resulting from the combustion of powdered coal and transported by the flue gases and collected by the electrostatic precipitator. It is obtained from a nearby thermal power plant site. Read More...
