Believing in the essence of timers in ladder logic programming, we come today with a new tutorial in which we are going to show you all about timers, the types of timers, what’s inside timers’ block of parameters, variables, and bits. In addition, techniques for using timers will be explored, and for sure, we are going to practice what we learn using the simulator. So let’s get started with our tutorial.
Timers in ladder logic programming
Guys, this is not the first time we’ve talked about timers. However, this time we are going to look into timers deeply and use the glasses of practical approach. So figure 1 shows the most important types of timers in ladder logic from left to right: the on-delay, off-delay, and retentive timers. There are differences in functionality. However, they all ...
Milling is a machining process that can create detailed or complex shapes from metal, plastic, or other materials. The CNC milling process involves using a computer to control the motion of a rotary cutter that removes material from a workpiece. This article will discuss things you need to know about the CNC milling process.
What is CNC milling, and what are its uses?
CNC milling is a machining process that uses computer numerical control (CNC) to cut materials precisely. It can produce complex shapes with high accuracy and repeatability from metal, plastic, or other materials. It is used for many applications, including prototyping, manufacturing parts, making moulds and dies, creating fixtures for production lines, producing 3D sculptures and m ...
Metal fabrication
refers to the manufacturing of sheet metal and other types of metal to fit different shapes.
The metal fabrication industry is vital to a wide range of industries. That’s due to the reliance on metal fabrication for vehicle parts, train tracks, building equipment, electrical devices, etc. A metal fabrication shop has various pieces of equipment needed to design and fabricate a myriad of metals. So, what, then, is custom fabrication?
What is Custom Metal Fabrication?
Custom metal fabrication refers to the production or fabrication of a range of metals to meet unique specifications. Custom metal fabrication projects are carried out for a specific purpose. It involves cutting, bending, rolling, or joining metal to create custom complex shapes based on specific req ...
In this article, I will explain the differential equations of fluid motion, i.e., conservation of mass (the continuity equation. So without wasting any time, let us start.
What is differential Analysis?
As a part of this article, it is essential to know what differential analysis is and how we can apply it to explain continuity and Naiver Stroke’s theorem.
Some of the essential key points related to the differential analysis are as follows:
Differential analysis is the application of a differential equation of fluid motion to any or every point in the flow field over a region called the Flow Domain.
Some readers might confuse the word differential with the small control volumes piled up on each other in the flow field.
Whenever the size of the control volume crosses the limit a ...
It is one of the most critical topics whenever. It is related to the resistance a fluid faces in motion. A fluid exerts a force on a body in a different direction. Now the main question is, what is drag? And what do we know about it?
What is Drag?
The definition of drag is as follows:
The force exerted on a flowing fluid in the direction of fluid flow is called drag.
Some of the essential key points related to the drag are as follows:
In order to elaborate on the drag force through an example. The body is attached to calibrated spring, and it is used to measure the displacement in the direction of flow.
The drag balances are one of those devices that are commonly used to measure the drag force.
It is not wrong to say that the drag force is much similar to the frictional force. ...
Hello Friends. I hope you are doing great. Here I am with another exciting topic of fluid mechanics, i.e. flow over bodies. In this article, I will explain the flow of fluids, the flow rate, their nature, the flow in pipes and much more. Fluid mechanics is all related to the fluid and its nature. I will discuss the forces that are on the body that is immersed in a fluid and the flow that is over the body. As the title shows, the main emphasis will be on the lift and drag forces. Moreover, the external and the internal flow will also be discussed in this article. And I am sure that you will enjoy reading this article. So without wasting any time, let us start.
I will start with an introduction to fluid flows.
Introduction
In this article, our focus will be the fluid flow over the bodies ...
Hello Friends. I hope you are doing great. In this article, I will cover the nature of flow responsible for the changes in density. The nature of flows responsible for density change is known as compressible flows.
Fluid dynamics and thermodynamics combine for the theory of compressible flows. The compressible flow creates a relationship with the ideal gas. First, I will explain the stagnation state, speed of sound, and then the Mach number. This all comes under compressible flows. Then there come the static and stagnation fluid properties, shock waves, and variation of fluid properties in the case of regular and oblique waves. All of these are discussed in this article. So without wasting any time, let us start with the Stagnation property.
Stagnation Property
The definition of the sta ...
The first law of thermodynamics is also known as the Conservation of energy Principle. I will explain what is energy principle is and the following are some important points of the Energy Principle:
The energy principle can be described as the following equation:
Ein-Eout=∆E
I will exemplify the energy equation through a simple example. For instance, the rock fell from the cliff and while falling from the cliff the rock gained speed and the speed doubled while coming down. The potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the rock is falling from height. Here the air resistance is negligible here. All these factors confirm the conservation of energy principle.
One of the simple examples of the Conservation of Energy Principle in our daily life is the man who has a lot of ...
In this article, I will cover one of the essential topics of fluid mechanics as the title shows three crucial topics—the first concerns the conservation of mass and how it plays a critical role in our daily life. The next one involves the conservation of kinetic and potential energy and is all about the flow energy of a fluid stream. The Bernoulli equation is all about considering the energies, handling them of fluid, and neglecting the viscous forces. The last topic is energy equations, which is about the conservation of energy principle. As we know that while dealing with energy in fluid mechanics, the mechanical energy can be separated from the thermal energy and end, considering it an energy loss.
So without wasting time, let us start the article with the mass.
Conservation Laws

Before starting this important topic there are some of the important terminologies related to the theorem that are frequently used throughout. So let us have a look at them.
System
Some important key points related to the system are as follows:
In thermodynamics, a system is a quantity of matter of fixed quantity.
The system is mostly closed. system. There is a change in the size and shape of the system but due to the closed system, no mass can cross the boundary.
One of the important points is that the mass of the system remains constant.
Control Volume
Some important key points related to the control volume are as follows:
The control volume is also known as the open system and it is defined as the region that is specified for a case study.
In the case of a contr ...
