Fluid Mechanics interviewquestions and answers

1. Why the Centrifugal Pump is called High Discharge pump?
Centrifugal pump is a kinetic device. The centrifugal pump uses the centrifugal force to push out the fluid. So the liquid entering the pump receives kinetic energy from the rotating impeller. The centrifugal action of the impeller accelerates the liquid to a high velocity, transferring mechanical (rotational) energy to the liquid. So it discharges the liquid in high rate. It is given in the following
formulae:
Centrifugal force F= (M*V2)/R.
Where, M-Mass;  V-Velocity; R-Radius

2. How Cavitation can be eliminated by Pump?
Cavitation means bubbles are forming in the liquid. ·
To avoid Cavitation, we have to increase the Pump size to One or Two Inch;
To increase the pressure of the Suction Head, or  Decrease the Pump Speed.

3. Why Cavitation will occur in Centrifugal Pump and not in Displacement Pump?
The formation of cavities (or bubbles) is induced by flow separation, or non-uniform flow velocities, inside a pump casing. In centrifugal pumps the eye of the pump impeller is smaller than the flow area of pipe. This decrease in flow area of pump results in increase in flow rate. So pressure drop happened between pump suction and the vanes of the impeller. Here air bubbles or cavities are formed because of liquid vapour due to increase in temperature in impeller. This air bubbles are transmitted to pump which forms cavitation.

4. Which Pump is more Efficient Centrifugal Pump or Reciprocating Pump?

Centrifugal pump. Because flow rate is higher compared to reciprocating pump. Flow is smooth and it requires less space to install. Lower initial cost and lower maintenance cost.

5. Why Centrifugal Pump is not called as a Positive Displacement Type of Pump?

The centrifugal has varying flow depending on pressure or head, whereas the Positive Displacement pump has more or less constant flow regardless of pressure.
Likewise viscosity is constant for positive displacement pump where centrifugal pump have up and down value because the higher viscosity liquids fill the clearances of the pump causing a higher volumetric efficiency. When there is a viscosity change in supply there is also greater loss in the system. This means change in pump flow affected by the pressure change. One more example is, positive displacement pump has more or less constant efficiency, where centrifugal pump has varying efficiency rate.

6. How Cavitation can be eliminated in a Pump?
Cavitation means bubbles are forming in the liquid.
· To avoid Cavitation, we have to increase the Pump size to One or Two Inch;
· To increase the pressure of the Suction Head, or
· Decrease the Pump Speed.

7. Which pump is more efficient Centrifugal pump or Reciprocating pump?
Centrifugal pump. Because flow rate is higher compared to reciprocating pump. Flow is smooth and it requires less space to install. Lower initial cost and lower maintenance cost.

8. Why Centrifugal Pump is not called as a Positive Displacement Type of Pump?
The centrifugal has varying flow depending on pressure or head, whereas the Positive Displacement pump has more or less constant flow regardless of pressure.  Likewise viscosity is constant for positive displacement pump where centrifugal pump have up and down value because the higher viscosity liquids fill the clearances of the pump causing a higher volumetric efficiency. When there is a viscosity  change in supply there is also greater loss in the system. This means change in pump flow affected by the pressure change. One more example is, positive displacement pump has more or less constant efficiency, where centrifugal pump has varying efficiency rate.

9. What is a radial-flow turbine?
In a radial-flow turbine, steam flows outward from the shaft to the casing. The unit is usually a reaction unit, having both fixed and moving blades.

10. What are four types of turbine seals?
Carbon rings fitted in segments around the shaft and held together by garter or retainer springs. Labyrinth mated with shaft serration’s or shaft seal strips. Water seals where a shaft runner acts as a pump to create a ring of water around the shaft. Use only treated water to avoid shaft pitting. Stuffing box using woven or soft packing rings that are compressed with a gland to prevent leakage along the shaft.

11. What are two types of clearance in a turbine?
Radial – clearance at the tips of the rotor and casing.
Axial – the fore-and-aft clearance, at the sides of the rotor and the casing.

12. What is the function of a thrust bearing?
Thrust bearings keep the rotor in its correct axial position.

13. What is a stage in a steam turbine?  In an impulse turbine, the stage is a set of moving blades behind the nozzle. In a reaction turbine, each row of blades is called a "stage." A single Curtis stage may consist of two or more rows of moving blades.

14. What is a diaphragm?
Partitions between pressure stages in a turbine’s casing are called diaphragms. They hold the vane- shaped nozzles and seals between the stages. Usually labyrinth-type seals are used. One-half of the diaphragm is fitted into the top of the casing, the other half into the bottom.

15. What are the two basic types of steam turbines?
Impulse type. Reaction type.

16. What are topping and superposed turbines?Topping and superposed turbines arc high- pressure, non-condensing units that can be added to an older, moderate-pressure plant. Topping turbines receive high-pressure steam from new high-pressure boilers. The exhaust steam of the new turbine has the same pressure as the old boilers and is used to supply the old turbines.

17. What is a combination thrust and radial bearing?
This unit has the ends of the Babbitt bearing extended radically over the end of the shell. Collars on the rotor face these thrust pads, and the journal is supported in the bearing between the thrust collars.

Why to do M.Tech?

By Zahid

Do I really need to do M.Tech? or just start early and find a job? Spend some time after the degree, learn some professional course and start looking for a job. What shall I do? Everything is dark and I don’t know how the future will be. I want to do something good and help others but I don’t know how.
These are few common questions that almost every final year engineering student has in mind. I had similar questions when I was in B.Tech’s final year, and I had friends who made different decisions at that time. Few prepared GRE and TOFEL and went to US and few took computer courses and joined
software industry, few went to government jobs and few like me moved for M.Tech.

First let me share my reasons of doing M.Tech. I always thought of doing a highly respected, high paid job and a job where I have more control to do things that I like. Unfortunately, I found myself  not competent enough to compete with top students for finding a job in Microsoft or Google. On the other hand, trying to reach there with experience in smaller companies usually takes a lot of time and
after that gaining a authoritative position would have taken few more years.

Here, I got a chance to think of the best way to get  higher positions in a short time. I felt that the entry to this is only possible through IITs. For that either I had to wait for a year and give GATE and score high or try for PhD. Again I made a good move and decided to not to waste another year for going to IITs and moved for M.Tech.

The first thing I did in M.Tech was that I avoided mistakes I did in B.Tech. I read the tough subjects in vacation and stood ahead of any other student in class. I worked on increasing my percentage to make it high enough for any company. I did an internship at Wipro and IIT Madras and finally dissertation at Defense Labs Hyderabad.

The first and foremost advantage of doing M.Tech is that you get time to think where things are going and how you can control them. Where do you want  to go and what is your ultimate destination. You
know the mistakes you made in B.Tech thus u can avoid them and improve to recover from them. The second advantage of doing M.Tech is that you add a value to education and will definitely have benefit in the long run. As we are moving ahead in life our educational qualifications are becoming more and more important. At some point where all other competitors have same technical skills you will be given preference over others because of qualification.

The third advantage is that you will get more insight into the subjects as this time you are mature enough to understand the subjects. Usually  teachers or professors are better than the oneswho taught you in B.Tech and you are more exposed to applications.

The fourth advantage is you will have good friends who are similar to you and trying hard to move ahead in life. If your institute is good you will see all of them in high positions in future, their  contacts may be good enough for you to start new projects and help many.

There are lots of other advantages of doing a higher degree. But there may be many social constraints and difficulties that may prevent you from doing master degree. Everyone knows their situation better than others and can make best decisions based on that. You can push your plans of having a master degree little later and gain few years of experience before. With M.Tech I also mean any master degree just not M.Tech.
Wish you all a great luck in your future endeavors.

Why is M Tech better than joining a sellout low- paying job?

By Zafar Ahmed Ansari |

For quite some time now there has been a phenomenon of so called ‘mass recruiters’ in campuses all over India. These companies pay
hardly enough in these jobs for surviving in big cities and they are very tough task masters. In
some instances people have to compulsorily do night shifts even though it is not BPO work, thus
ruining their health and peace of mind. They hire in bulk (hundreds from a single college) every year.
When people get selected for such companies they get complacent. They stop trying. After two-three
years, it is to their bitter disappointment when they realize that they are frustrated and want to leave their jobs. Till then another fresher batch is ready to take their place.

Today’s India is being built by engineers. The quality of that will depend on the quality of our engineers. Unfortunately we have focused on quantity and not quality in higher education. Private
colleges are churning out engineers who are quite literally incompetent in their fields.

A lot of blame lies in the environment these engineers find themselves in. When no one is interested in teaching or studying around them why shouldn’t they do the same? It is thus important to remember that it is we who make our destinies and not others.

For those of us who have never studied from standard books, who have gone to exams mugging up question banks and who have always started two days before exams, it is a wake-up call. Such people may have got placed but their complacency
is only an illusion. GATE 2013 is a chance to mend ways and become a good engineer for the rest of
your life. Not only will a PG from a good college give you perspective to good engineering, but more
importantly you will find yourself in company of talented and hardworking people. Their positive
influence on you will bring out the best in you.

It is not just a degree. It is a chance to start again. It is a chance to undo wrongs of your past. Go for M Tech from a good college not only for a better shot at a job, but for becoming a better engineer.

Is it possible to be a good researcher and lecturerat the same time?

Have you ever had a really good teacher or lecturer who has just made a subject interesting, applicable and even a bit fun? I hope so, because an exceptional lecturer is a rare breed, it seems. I guess that's why they're exceptional! And this is particularly true of engineering at the University of Western Australia (UWA). UWA is a research university, meaning that any given engineering lecturer  s also juggling various research projects, and for some lecturers, have up to 20 thesis students to supervise. This of course affects the quality of the lectures I receive as an engineering undergraduate. Can lecturers can be much older than students and still give good lectures? And what kind of things will a good engineering lecturer do to keep student interest up as well as ensure their content is being understood? Are there character  traits that are needed, too? Indeed. And presumably  many characteristics of an excellent engineering lecturer will overlap with those of an excellent science, arts or music lecturer. I'm going to tell you a bit about my own uni experience of lecturers, as
well as briefly comment on some elements of good lecturing.

Vague and boring?
In one sense, I would say that engineering lecturers' research actually enriches their lectures, as they can enthuse about their research work. However, it can mean that a lecturer is in his or her own  world, and so are vague or simply boring when presenting talks. It can also mean that we end up with lecturers who are endearingly quirky. I wonder sometimes whether some lecturers just view their  class presentations as necessary inconveniences, which are stopping them from getting more research done. But I think that is a fairly rare attitude. Usually, my lecturers have been both approachable and helpful. Nevertheless, research lecturer often have the problem of forgetting the difficulties they themselves faced when they were learning the same content a while ago in their undergraduate degrees. And so they explain concepts either in an academic, dense way or simply in insufficient detail with an assumption that the concept is fairly obvious. But we engineering students thrive on examples when learning new formulas, and yet lecturers often give surprisingly few illustrations on how to apply those weird- looking math equations. Those valuable examples are usually shown later in the smaller tutors run by PhD students or upper-year students, thus making tutorials the place where much of our deep learning  happens.

I'm just reflecting on all the lecturers I've had throughout my engineering degree. My lecturers have ranged from about 35 y.o. to about 75 y.o, mostly in their forties, I think. I've had excellent lectures from both the younger and older academics. According to my recollection, I've had 31 male lecturers and about four female lecturers. I've had one German, at least three Poles, two Malaysians (I think), one Mauritian, one Italian, one Swede, one Bulgarian and over 20 Australian lecturers. Each one has had their own unique sense of humour, personality and teaching style. The level of spoken English has been a limiting factor for some of my lecturers, but usually they get around this by explaining content in another way, having good powerpoint slides or having good lecture handouts. Sometimes it's just a bit too difficult for them, and so then students need to spend extra time working by themselves to understand the content. This can be quite time-consuming. Interestingly, there are some cultural trends in humour (eg. the Polish lecturers often have a cynical or sarcastic sense of humour) and style (eg. overall, the Australian teachers seemed to give more examples in lectures). Two of my female lecturers were Electrical Engineers turned lecturers, while the other two women were from the School of Mechanical Engineering.

Two big factors: Enthusiasm and Experience?
Two big factors overall in the teaching quality of lecturers I've been under from 2007 to 2012 have been simply their lecturing experience for their units as well as their personal enthusiasm for  teaching. As their confidence and familiarity with their lecture slides and notes has increased of the  years, the smoothness of their presentation and clarity of their explanations have doubtless improved. Also, as the lecturer receives feedback from previous students, they can expand on their previous explanations and powerpoints. But all this is negatively affected if the lecturer isn't enthusiastic. Some lecturers I've had seemed to be counting the places they'd rather be. This isn't lost on the students. If lecturers don't want to be there, then students don't either. What a surprise! On the flip side, if a lecturer like Cosimo Faiello is enthusiastic about their topic, even about one as mundane as Project Engineering Practice, then that can motivate and interest students to study more and take greater ownership of their learning. Cosi, as the Italian lecturer asks us to call  him, not only exudes energy and enthusiasm about his course, but he also uses personal stories to back-up his points. Of course, this isn't easy to do with most engineering units, but it does indicate that stories do really help in engaging audiences and placing info in context. Researching and teaching: not the easiest juggling
act

So what makes a good engineering lecturer? They need to be approachable. They'll make sure that their lecture slides, handouts and comments in their lectures address questions that students are asking. They'll often talk about their research or tell stories to help students get a picture of how a principle will work in the real world, as well as to make a talk more interesting. Generally, by being themselves, as research academics, they can be quite entertaining. I really treasure the good teachers I've had a uni, and I recognise the challenges of being a good engineering lecturer (or a good lecturer in anything, really).
