What is a Perfect Gas? A perfect gas or an ideal gas is a state of a substance, whose evaporation from the liquid state is completed and which obeys all the gas laws strictly under all conditions of pressure and temperature. In reality there is no ideal or perfect gas which obeys all the law […]

Adiabatic process is a process in which there is no exchange of heat takes place from the working substance to the surrounding during its expansion or compression. This is possible when the working system is made thermally insulated, that is no heat can leave or enters it during the process. So we can say that

The diesel cycle was invented by Rudolph Diesel in 1893. He put forward an idea by which we can attain higher thermal efficiency, with a high compression ratio. All diesel engine works on this cycle. Diesel is used as fuel in this cycle as it can be compressed at a higher compression ratio. It is

The Otto cycle was given by Dr. Nikolaus August Otto. It is a gas power cycle that is used in spark ignition engine (i.e. petrol engines) for its working. The entire modern petrol engine works on Otto cycle. It consists of four processes, Two isentropic (reversible adiabatic) processes and two isochoric (constant volume) processes. It

What is a Compression Ignition (CI) Engine? A compression ignition engine or CI engine is an internal combustion engine in which the ignition of the fuel takes place with the help of hot compressed air. As the air is compressed, it gets hot and its heat is used for the ignition and burning of the

What is Spark Ignition Engine? It is an internal combustion engine in which the ignition of the air-fuel mixture takes place by the spark. The spark is generated with the help of a spark plug. Since in this engine, the spark is responsible for the ignition of the fuel, it is named as spark ignition

Portland Cement (PC) is a fine powder which is produced by heating limestone and clay minerals in a kiln and forms clinker. The clinker is grinded to fine powder with addition of small amount of other materials. It is the most commonly used types of cement in the world. It is used as basic ingredients

Before starting to learn different types of cement, lets us see what is cement and where it is used? Cement is a fine powder which is used to join materials together. When it is mixed with water, forms a paste and act as very hard strong binding medium for the aggregate particles. It is used

Positive displacement pump (PDP) is a type of pump in which a moving fluid is captured in a cavity and then discharges that fixed amount of fluid. The displacement of fluid takes place by some parts like plunger, piston, diaphragm etc. some of these pumps have expanding cavity at the suction side and a decreasing

Have you ever imagined that gear ratio can be possible without gears? Interestingly right, what if the system creates countless gear ratios? To create an infinite gear ratio is extraordinary thinking but is it possible? Yes, everything is possible when it is a matter of automobiles. The manual gearbox or traditional transmission system has a
