Industrial Equipment: Principles, Construction, and Uses

Ball Mill

Principle of Ball Mill

Ball mills operate on the principle of impact and attrition. The mill uses a combination of impact and friction to grind and mix materials.

Principle of Hammer Mill

Hammer mills operate on the principle of impact and attrition. The mill uses a series of hammers to crush and grind the material into a smaller size.

Construction of Ball Mill

  1. A cylindrical or conical shell made of steel or other materials, which contains the grinding media.
  2. Steel or ceramic balls, pebbles,

Mastering Data Manipulation with dplyr and reshape2 in R

This document demonstrates data manipulation techniques using the dplyr and reshape2 packages in R.

Introduction to dplyr

dplyr is much faster and easier to read than base R. Here are some of its key functions:

  • select(): Selects column variables based on their names.
  • filter(): Filters rows based on their values.
  • arrange(): Changes the ordering of the rows.
  • summarize(): Reduces multiple values down to a single summary.
  • mutate(): Creates columns that are functions of existing variables.

Let’s explore these

Rankine Cycle in Steam Power Plants: Diagrams & Formulas

A steam power plant converts heat energy into mechanical work by utilizing the Rankine cycle, which involves processes such as compression, heat addition, expansion, and heat rejection. Below, we will explain the P-V, T-S, and H-S diagrams of a steam power plant, the working of each cycle process, and the relevant formulas.

1. P-V Diagram (Pressure-Volume Diagram) for Steam Power Plants

The P-V diagram shows the relationship between pressure and volume during the Rankine cycle in a steam power plant.
