small. Transportation technology includes many related areas. Motive power‚ of course‚ is one key technology. Early vehicles were pulled by human or animal power. Steam engines powered locomotives and ships in the ninetheenth century. The internal-combustion engine was invented in the 1880s and used almost immediately in cars and trucks. The jet engine was invented in the 1940s. Each of these inventions was improved by thousands of additional innovations. But less-obvious technologies also made transportation

NANOTECHNOLOGY IN AVIATION Israel Stephen U. Manigandan D. III Yr‚ Aeronautical Excel College Of Engg. & Tech ABSTRACT: In the aerospace industry‚ there is a great need for new materials which exhibit improved mechanical properties. Materials possessing high strength at a reduced mass and size make lighter aircraft with lower fuel consumption. The development of new materials with tailored properties is a primary goal of today’s materials science and engineering. This paper gives us a brief idea

much to be learned. Being a DIPLOMA holder in AUTOMOBILE ENGG; I very well know the basics of AUTOMOBILE ENGG. I am well aware about the concepts of body designing‚ engine working and gear mechanism. I can even make a miniature four stroke internal combustion engine which not many guys of my age can make. Chassis making is also a job that fascinates me.Besides this; I also keep an eye on NATIONAL and INTERNATIONAL AUTO EXPO. Especially‚ the Geneva Motor show. It helps you to be updated with the latest

Combustion of Alcohols THE COMBUSTION OF ALCOHOLS PROBLEM Investigate the heat energy in a range of alcohol’s used as fuels. HYPOTHESIS I predict that octanol will release the most heat energy. This is because there is more bond energy in that molecule than the other alcohols. Within a molecule there are bond energies that are holding the atoms together. When the fuel combusts a chemical reaction takes place‚ this breaks the bonds‚ this requires energy‚ and makes new bonds this gives out energy

Honda is a Japan based company and is the world’s largest manufacturer of motorcycles as well as the world’s manufacturer of internal combustion engines (motor vehicles) producing more than 14 million internal combustion engines each year. Honda’s trademark had been registered in Japan since November 13‚ 1953 it was not until a decade later that the motorcycle and automobile company filed for trademark registration in the United

As time evolve the technology gets better in methods and materials to generating energy to non-toxic items. Going green is in many different areas of life’s needs from cleaning supplies‚ energy sources‚ and fuel alternative.

exhaust ports. The cylinder head covers the top of the cylinder and houses the starting air valve‚ fuel valve or injector. It will also contain a relief valve and indicator cock. The piston contains piston rings that will seal the high pressure combustion gases from the bottom part of the engine. The piston is cooled by water that is led through telescopic tubes into the hollow piston assembly. The cylinder liner is surrounded by cooling jacket water. This can be removed and changed. The seals between

explanation of how superchargers work. Super chargers basically do what a turbocharger does‚ except they still are different and have different properties to them. A supercharger puts more oxygen into the cylinder per cycle to put more support for the combustion stroke of the engine. And that makes it so more fuel can be burned at once and more of the stroke to be done at once power for the supercharger can be provided mechanically by a belt‚ gear‚ shaft or chain connected to the engine’s
