Summer Air - Conditioning System

 a) Summer Air - Conditioning For Hot and Wet Weather :

     When the air is hot and wet, the treating of the air in air - conditioning system differs from other  methods. Because air contains more quantity of water vapour than the required quantity. So, the air conditioning system has to remove the water vapour by dehumidifying. 

    During hot weather, air is first passed through air filter to remove the dust and then it is passed through the cooling coil to remove water vapor. At that time, the temperature of air becomes below its dew -  temperature due to reduction in surface temperature of cooling coil. This surface  temperature of coil is   controlled by varying the quantity of  coolant. 

    During wet weather, the air coming out from the cooling coil is passed over the heating coil to heat   up  to the required temperature. Then the heated air is directly supplied to air conditioned space. The  amount of  air passed through air conditioned system is controlled with the help of air dampers according to the load in air conditioned space.

 b) Summer Air - Conditioning For Hot and dry weather:

   During hot weather, air at low relative humidity is first passed through air filter to remove the dust  and  then it is passed through the cooling coil to remove water vapor. At that time, The temperature  of  air becomes below its dew-temperature due to reduction in surface temperature of cooling coil.  This surface temperature of coil is controlled by varying the quantity of coolant. Then the air is passed through spray type humidifier to increase humidity and its is passed through eliminator to  remove water droplets. The quantity of passed through the air conditioned space varies with the load calculations.

SIMPLE CARBURETOR - CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING

CONSTRUCTION OF SIMPLE CARBURETOR :  The main Components of Simple Carburetor are : Float Chamber, float, nozzle, venturi, throttle valve, inlet valve, and metering jet . In the float chamber, a constant level of petrol is maintained by the float and a needle valve.  The float chamber is ventilated to atmosphere.  This is used to maintain atmospheric pressure inside the chamber. The float which is normally a metallic hollow cylinder rises and closes the inlet valve as the fuel level in the float chamber increases to certain level. The mixing chamber contains venturi, nozzle and throttle valve. The venturi tube is fitted with the inlet  manifold. This tube has a narrow opening called venturi. A nozzle is provided just below the centre of this venturi. The nozzle keeps the same level of petrol as that of the level in the float chamber. The mixing chamber has two butterfly valves.  One is to allow air into the mixing chamber known as choke valve. The other is to al...

MELTING FURNACES FOR FERROUS METALS : CUPOLA AND ITS WORKING

Various types of melting furnaces are used in different foundry shops, depending upon the quantity of metal to be melted at a time, and the nature of work that is carried out in the shop.  The primary objective in cupola is to produce iron of desired composition, temperature and properties at the required rate in the most economical manner. Besides, this furnace has many distinct advantages over the other types, e.g., simplicity of operation, continuity of production, and increased output coupled with a high degree of efficiency.  Description Of a Cupola : The Cupola Furnace consists of a vertical, cylindrical steel sheet, 6 to 12 mm thick, and lined inside with acid refractory bricks or acid tamping clay. The refractory bricks or the tamping clay used consist of  silicon oxide acid (SiO2) and alumina (Al2O3). The lining is generally thicker in the lower where the temperatures encountered are higher than in the upper region. The shell is mounted either on a brick work fo...

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.
