DIFFERENT TYPES OF NOZZLES

Main types of Nozzles are

i) Single hole nozzle,

ii) Multi hole nozzle,

iii) Pintle Type.

I) SINGLE HOLE NOZZLE :

This nozzle has only one hole at the tip. The fuel is sprayed through this hole to the combustion chamber. The injection in this type is in one direction. So, mixing of fuel in air will not be done well by this type.

II) MULTI HOLE NOZZLE :

In this type, 2 to 4 holes are made at the tip of the nozzle. The holes are closed or opened by means of conical end of control valves. So the, fuel is sprayed in multi direction inside combustion chamber.

Therefore, the mixing of fuel in the air inside the cylinder is done well. The holes are very small and hence may be blocked by carbon particles.

III) PINTLE TYPE :

In this type, the end of the valve is extended to form a pin or pintle. The pin is in cylindrical or conical form. The fuel is sprayed through the hole between pintle and hole. The conical form spindle gives hollow cone shaped spray. So, the fuel is sprayed in all directions. Therefore , the mixing of the fuel with air is done well inside the combustion chamber.

ELECTRICAL COMPARATORS AND ITS WORKING

Electrical Comparators are used as a means of detecting and amplifying small movements of a work contacting elements. An electrical comparator consists essentially of a pick-up head or transducer for converting a displacement into a corresponding change in current and a meter or recorder connected in the circuit to indicate the electrical change, calibrated to show in terms of displacement. Generally, an amplifier is needed to provide the requisite sensitivity and to match the characteristics of different parts of the circuit. Electrical comparators can be classified according to the electrical principle used in the pick-up head. Most of the comparators use either a differential transformer, an inductance bridge, a strain gauge or a capacitor as a means of detecting movement of the gauging element. There are different types of electrical comparators. One kind called an electrolimit gauge is used to check or measure the outside diameter of a roll. The object to be checked is place

Advantages And Disadvantages Of Air Refrigeration System :

Advantages Of Air Refrigeration : 1. The refrigerant used namely air is cheap and easily available. 2. There is no danger of fire or toxic effects due to leakages. 3. The weight to ton of refrigeration ratio is less as compared to other systems. Disadvantages Of Air Refrigeration : 1. The quantity of Refrigerant used per ton of refrigeration is high as compared to other systems. 2. The COP of the system is very low. Therefore running cost is high. 3. The danger of frosting at the expander valves is more as the air contains moisture content.

THROTTLE GOVERNING OF STEAM TURBINES

Steam Pressure at inlet to a steam turbine is reduced by throttling process to maintain the speed of the turbine constant at part load and hence this method of governing is called "Throttle Governing". Construction : Throttle governing system consists of a centrifugal governor, a lever , an oil pump , a pilot piston , control valve , a relay piston and a throttle valve. The throttle valve is moved by a relay piston. The relay piston is actuated by pilot piston control valve. There are two piston valves covering ports in the pilot piston control valve without any overlap. These piston valves are operated by lubricating oil supplied by a gear pump at 2 to 4 bar. The oil returns to the drain from this chamber. Working : When the turbine works on full rated load, the throttle valve will remain open. When the load is decreased, the energy output of the turbine becomes in excess and the turbine shaft speed increases. Hence, governor sleeve will lift. The upward movement of the
