How to import saved view orientations in Creo?
Modelling, Assembling and drafting in Creo can be exciting and fun. But sometimes if you want import saved view orientations in to bunch of models it can be not simple as it is supposed to be. Since Creo is one the best CAD software for engineers who work with large assemblies and multiple components. For people new […]
How to create BOM with Repeat Region in Creo?
Modelling, Assembling and drafting in Creo can be exciting and fun. Creating BOM with Repeat Region in Creo can be pretty frustrating sometimes as it should not be since Creo is one the best CAD software for engineers who work with large assemblies and their drawings and BOMs. Let us not too worry about this and solve […]
How does Gear Wheel Pump work?
The gear wheel pump is a rotary pump in which two gears mesh to provide the pumping action. This type of pump is mostly used for cooling water and pressure oil to be supplied for lubrication to motors, turbines, machine tools etc. Fluid Systems A fluid system is defined as a device in which power […]
How does Air Lift Pump work?
The Air Lift pump is a device which is used for lifting water from a well or sump by using compressed air. The compressed air is made to mix with the water. The Air Lift pump has no moving parts and relies on the difference in density between the air and water mixture and the […]
Hydraulic Coupling vs Torque Converter
The fluid or hydraulic coupling is a device used for transmitting power from the driving shaft to the driven shaft with the help of a fluid (generally oil). Whereas the hydraulic torque converter is a device used for transmitting increased torque at the driven shaft. There is no need for a mechanical connection between the […]
How does a Hydraulic Crane work?
A Hydraulic crane is a heavy-duty equipment used for raising or transferring heavy loads. It is widely used in workshops, warehouses and dock sidings. Let us discuss how a Hydraulic Crane works. Fluid Systems A fluid system is defined as a device in which power is transmitted with the help of a fluid which may […]
What is a Hydraulic Lift?
A hydraulic lift is a device that lifts things by applying force to a liquid inside a cylinder, which drives a piston higher. This Hydraulic Lift is used for carrying passengers or goods from one floor to another in a multi-storeyed building. Fluid Systems A fluid system is defined as a device in which power […]
What is a Hydraulic Ram?
The hydraulic ram is a pump which raises water without any external power for its operation. The hydraulic ram works on the principle of the water hammer. In this article, let us discuss the construction and the working principle of the Hydraulic Ram (Water Hammer). Fluid Systems A fluid system is defined as a device […]
What is a Hydraulic Intensifier?
The Hydraulic Intensifier is used to increase the intensity of pressure of water by means of hydraulic energy available from a large amount of water at low pressure for the hydraulic press. Let us discuss the construction and working principle of the Hydraulic Intensifier. Fluid Systems A fluid system is defined as a device in […]
What is a Hydraulic Accumulator used for?
The hydraulic accumulator is a device used for storing the energy of a liquid in the form of pressure energy, which may be supplied for any sudden or intermittent requirement. In the case of a hydraulic lift or hydraulic crane, a large amount of energy is required when the lift or crane is moving upward. […]
How to calculate the Weight lifted by Hydraulic Press?
The hydraulic press is a device used for lifting heavy weights by the application of a much smaller force. It is based on Pascal’s law, which states that the intensity of pressure in a static fluid is transmitted equally in all directions. Let us discuss How we can calculate the Weight lifted by the hydraulic […]
Importance of Air Vessels In Reciprocating Pump
Air Vessels are mainly used to maintain uniform discharge in the operation of reciprocating pumps. An air vessel is a cast iron closed chamber that stores compressed air from the reciprocating pumps. an Air Vessel is an intermediate reservoir to store energy. Inside the Air vessels, the top portion is filled with air and the bottom […]
What is Reciprocating Pump Indicator Diagram?
An Indicator diagram is a graph between the pressure versus the length of the stroke in reciprocating cylinders. The Reciprocating Pump Indicator Diagram will help us understand the relationship between the pressure head in the cylinder and the distance travelled by the piston from the inner dead centre for one complete revolution of the crank.
