Inhibition effect of Vanillin-4-methylthiosemi carbazone(VMTSC) and Vanillin-4-ethylthiosemi carbazone (VETSC) for the corrosion on mild steel in aqueous solution containing 1N H2SO4 was investigated by weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization technique, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The results of weight loss study showed that the inhibition efficiency increases with increase in concentration of the inhibitors. Potentiodynamic polarization data showed that Vanillin-4-ethylthiosemicarbazone (VMTSC) and Vanillin-4-ethylthiosemicarbazone (VETSC) behave as mixed type inhibitor in 1N H2SO4. Electrochemical impedence spectroscopy was used to investigate the mechanism of the corrosion inhibition. The surface morphology of the mild steel samples both in absence and presence of inhibitor at optimum concentration was examined via Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The adsorption of this compound was found to obey Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The value of ΔG°ads was less than 40kjmol−1 indicating electrostatic interaction between the charged inhibitor molecules and the charged metal surface, i.e., physical adsorption. Various thermodynamic parameters were calculated to investigate the mechanism of corrosion inhibition.

The conventional fusion welding of cast aluminium alloys is generally difficult due to some common defects such as porosity, oxide inclusion, and hot cracking, which in turn reduce the weld strength. In recent years, friction stir welding (FSW) was found to be very effective for the welding of various wrought aluminum alloys. This paper investigates a metal joining process called Friction Stir Welding (FSW), an innovative welding technique invented by TWI Ltd. in Great Britain in 1991. The purpose of the paper is to study the effects of process parameters in the butt welding of Al-6082-T6 plates with a thickness of 3 mm. Joints were made using different combinations of tool rotation speed, welding speed, and axial force, each at different levels. The quality of weld zone was analyzed using macrostructure. The study aims in identifying the process parameters of welding the Al6082 alloy and the effect of welding speed on the weld performance of the joint was investigated by conducting tensile and hardness tests.

Surface of engineering components like valves, bearing are routinely subjected to contact loading, where large stresses are applied over highly localized area and result in failure of components. In recent years, the technique improving sliding performances have progressed by using coated film and interlayer possessing superior tribological properties. These techniques are often used under severe condition such as Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication (EHL) operating condition. In this work, an optimum design for coated film with an interlayer is analyzed by using a two-dimensional numerical analysis. The bond strength of the coating/substrate and interlayer/coating is one of the important properties of the coating system and therefore it is essential to study the stress distribution and contact width with different ratio of young's modulus Two-dimensional model have been created with substrate only. Contact analysis have been performed with circle on flat plate both being deformable. Optimum young's modulus ratio of coating and interlayer material have been found. Using this particular optimum young's modulus ratio optimum interlayer thickness have been found for which stress generated is minimum.

Rapid heat removal from heated surfaces and reducing material weight and cost become a major task for design of heat exchanger equipments like Cooling of I C engines. Development of super heat exchangers requires fabrication of efficient techniques to exchange great amount of heat between surface such as extended surface and ambient fluid. The present paper reports, an experimental study to investigate the heat transfer enhancement in rectangular fin arrays with circular perforation equipped on horizontal flat surface in horizontal rectangular duct. The data used in performance analyses were obtained experimentally by varying flow, different heat inputs and geometrical conditions. The experiment covered Reynolds number range from 3000–6000, based on the flow average inlet velocity and hydraulic diameter. Clearance ratio (C/H) 0.45, inter-fin spacing ratio (S/H) 0.22, duct width 150mm, height 100mm and fin size of both solid and perforated (weight reduction) were 100mm × 55mm × 3mm. For various heat inputs and flow rates values of Reynolds and Nusselt number were obtained. The results of perforated fin arrays have been compared with its external dimensionally equivalent solid fin arrays. It shows that enhancement in heat transfer of perforated fin arrays than solid fin arrays.

Electrochemical capacitors are charge storing-discharging devices used in conjunction with power sources like batteries or Fuel Cells. Electrochemical capacitors are placed in between the positions of batteries and ordinary capacitors based on their energy density and power density. Electrochemical capacitors are occupying a niche position in the category of load leveling of power sources in Electric Vehicles. Application of these electrochemical capacitors is also extended into consumer electronic items. Parameters affecting the performance of these capacitors like the energy and power densities that they would deliver among other conditions like efficiency, life, costs etc. are dealt in this paper. The feasibility and the use of active materials, electrolytic medium and scan rate affecting the performance of the electrochemical capacitors are presented in this work.

The work hardening behaviour of cold upsetting of Cu-5%SiC powder preforms have been compacted and sintered from electrolytic copper powder is presented here. Cu-SiC Powder Metallurgy preforms having initial theoretical density of 85%, with four initial aspect ratios, namely 0.40, 0.50, 0.60 and 0.70 were prepared using a suitable die-set assembly on a 1.0MN UTM. Sintering operation was carried in an electric muffle furnace at the temperature of 850±10°C for a holding period of an hour. Experiments were conducted and measurements were recorded on the development of barreling and strain variations at the free surface with zinc stearate as lubricant. The instantaneous strain hardening exponent ni and strength coefficient ki of the Cu-SiC preforms were calculated and found to reach the peak value when packing density is at low value. Further, it has been observed that the value of ni and ki decreased and found to be fluctuating as the axial strain value of the fractional density value increased. It has further been established that the initial geometry of the P/M preforms played a significant role in influencing both ni and ki values.

In this paper, the Fracture behavior of Al6061 alloy, discontinuously reinforced with fine particles(25µm) of silicon carbide are presented and discussed. The discontinuously reinforced aluminium (DRA) alloy composites with 10% and 15% volume fraction of particulates were produced by the stir casting method and using them test specimens were prepared as per ASTM standard. Heat treatment was done for the test specimens at different solutionising time, aging time and aging temperature. The room temperature Fracture toughness (K1C) values were found for all test specimens using universal testing machine. The results show that reinforcement of the metal matrix with silicon carbide particles up to a volume fraction of 15% decreases the K1C. The heat treatment conditions were optimized by Taguchi method for obtaining maximum value of K1C for the composites. Among the several process parameters, the aging temperature is found to contribute more to the increase in Fracture toughness. The scanning electron micrographs of the fracture surface of 10% and 15% vol. SiCp composites show the ductile tear ridges and cracked SiC particles indicating both ductile and brittle fracture mechanism.

This paper introduces a method of automatic multilevelcar parking system that parks the vehicle in reduced space using the conditions based on fuzzy logic controller. It possibly controls the traffic and avoids traffic congestion. This automatic multi-level vehicle stacking system also has online access to book the parking slot in advance which is interfaced with the LabVIEW. The vehicle placed at the entrance point is parked automatically according to the availability of slots. The car park consists of number of slots based on three different sizes. The car is moved to the particular slot with help of an elevator placed at the centre of the parking system. The elevator consists of an arm that moves along the vertical axis and can rotate along the multi stack parking system. LabVIEW is used to check the availability of slots, total number of cars parked the movement of the elevator and the position of the arm. The programming software tracks the location of the vehicle and returns the vehicle on request from the patron by the access system installed. Thus the paper shows the description of the automatic multi-level vehicle stacking with microcontroller and fuzzy mechanism using LabVIEW to achieve conventional parking system.
