In the combustion process, Air-Fuel Ratio refers to the mass of air to the mass of fuel. Fuel can be Solid, Liquid, Gas, or maybe a combination of these. The combustion process can be in an internal combustion engine or Industrial Furnace. Types of AFR ratio or mixture: • What is an “Ideal” AFR Ratio: … Read more
What is Centrifugal Pump: A Centrifugal pump is a device used to lift fluid from lower to higher levels by the mean of centrifugal force acting inside the pump. Centrifugal pump is quite suitable for liquid, slurry, and suspension with solid. “A Pump is a device used to convert mechanical energy into hydraulic energy with … Read more

What is Fan Power: Fan power defines the amount of energy required to operate the fan to produce a specific amount of Air flow. Fan power depends upon the air flow and static pressure. How do we calculate the Power of a blower or fan: Power … Read more
The calculated viscosity is dynamic (absolute). The dynamic viscosity of the gas is a function of temperature. This is interpreted in crane 1988 in the graphical form for hydrocarbon vapors, natural gases, and other common gases. The significance of the pressure is relatively less which is nearly about 10%, correction has already been taken in … Read more
Demister Pad: Demister Pad is a device that is used in the separation column or vessel to capture the mist or liquid particle present in a gas mixture, to achieve or guarantee separation efficiency. A demister is used for the removal of liquid particles present in the gas stream or phase. Demister pad is used … Read more
Thermal expansion: Thermal Expansion refers to the condition, if there is a change in the temperature of the body (either heated or cooled), there is a resultant change in length, width, and height, Volume of the body. In this article, we will learn about the types of thermal expansion. Coefficient of linear thermal expansion: The … Read more
What is safety relief devices: Safety relief devices are the valves which are used to protect equipment including the piping and its components due to overpressure scenarios or conditions. Pressure relief valves are actuated by the inlet static pressure. Safety relief valves are designed to open in an emergency or abnormal condition. Blocked discharge: It … Read more
