Undercoating is a thick resilient coating applied to the underbody or chassis of an automobile to protect against impact damage from small stones, which would rapidly chip ordinary paint, allowing rusting to begin. The main purpose of undercoating is to check rust especially in the body…

Benchmarking-  Benchmarking involves a structured comparison between similar products, services or processes on some dimensions of performance. For example it can be used to compare the availability and delivery of features in a product and in this form often provides the basis of consumer tests and reviews. These…

1. Draft Analysis The Draft Analysis command enables you to detect if the part you drafted will be easily removed. This type of analysis is performed based on color ranges identifying zones on the analyzed element where the deviation from the draft direction at any point, corresponds to specified values. For the color…

1. Tooling Axis   To create the tooling axis the intersection of component is generated with the respective planes (x and y). Since the walls of the coin holder are at 90 degrees or perpendicular to each other the tooling axis is simply created by drawing a line normal to the base.   2. Draft Analysis The Draft…

Draft Angle A draft angle refers to that slant applied to the sides of most features of injection molded parts. Positioning of the injection angles is such that they run towards the direction of the mold's pull and parting line. They help to release the molded parts from the mold easily.   Tooling Axis …

Radar mast     REPORT Yacht Model Objective- To model all the components of a Sunseeker Superyacht and render them after assembly in SolidWorks 2020. Introduction-  A yacht is a motor boat or vessel used for pleasure, cruising or racing. It is a boat which has amenities to accomodate  overnight use. To…

Aim - To write a function that extracts the 14 co-efficients and calculates the enthalpy, entropy and specific heats for all the species in the data file. Calculate the molecular weight of each species and display it in the command window. Plot the Cp, Enthalpy and Entropy for the local temperature range (low temperature…

Aim - To write a code in MATLAB to optimise the stalagmite function and find the global maxima of the function.                                                          …

Aim- To write a program that solves the following ODE. Write a program in Matlab that will simulate the pendulum motion.   Theory- A second order ordinary differential equation is an ordinary differential equation in which any derivatives with respect to the independent variable have order no greater than 2. The general second…

Aim- To study the aerodynamics of airfoil body by varying the angle of attack. Introduction-  Airfoil- Airfoil, also spelled Aerofoil, shaped surface, such as an airplane wing, tail, or propeller blade, that produces lift and drag when moved through the air. An airfoil produces a lifting force that acts at right…

Aim-  1. To perform a combustion simulation on the combustor model and plot the variation of the mass fraction of the different species in the simulation using line probes at different locations of the combustor. To plot for CO2, H2O, CH4, N2, O2, NOx emissions & Soot formation. 2. To add the water content in…

Aim- To perform a parametric study on the gate valve simulation by setting the opening from 10% to 80%. Introduction- A gate valve, also known as a sluice valve, is a valve that opens by lifting a barrier (gate) out of the path of the fluid. Gate valves require very little space along…

Aim- To perform analysis on cyclone separator and calculate the separation efficiency and pressure drop. Introduction- A cyclone separator is simply a separation device used for gas-solid flow.
