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.

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 ...
Step into the world of precision engineering—where custom CNC machined parts transform raw materials into the sinews and bones of your next big project. Like a tailor crafting a bespoke suit, CNC machining offers an unparalleled fit for your specific requirements.
The prospect of holding your idea in your hands, not just on paper, is the realm where imagination meets implementation. But what options lie at your fingertips? Let's explore the paths to turning those digital blueprints into tangible assets.
Materializing Visions: The Alloy of Choice
Before the whirring of machines begins, your quest starts with choosing the right material—a decision as critical as selecting the foundation for a skyscraper. Each material whispers its own strengths and secrets, waiting to align with your proj ...
The article will cover essential aspects of fluid statics and pressure forces applied to the fluid. The article will start with the absolute pressure gauge and the variation of pressure with depth in different gravitational field manometers and barometers, respectively. Then I will explain the forces that deal with fluids, such as hydrostatic force, buoyant force, etc. So, dear friends, without wasting any time, let’s start.
Pressure
The definition of pressure according to fluid mechanics is as follows:
Pressure is the normal force applied by a fluid per unit area.
Unit of Pressure
The units of pressure Pascal is too small to deal with in practical cases. For instance,
Kilopascal: 1kPa=103Pa
Mega Pascal: 1MPa=106Pa
The three common pressure units used are standard atmosphere ba ...
Hello students, I hope this tutorial finds you happy, healthy, and content. The topic we have at hand today is "3D printing", it is a very interesting and versatile topic, and extremely easy to comprehend as well, it would definitely keep you hooked to your screens. You might have heard a lot about 2D and 3D objects, in this digital era almost everyone has at least once heard of it, do you know what is a 3D object?
A 3D object can be defined as,
"An object or structure that has three dimensions which includes width, length, and height."
Definition of 3D Printing
As you are now familiar with the term 3D we shall proceed further with our actual topic, so
Here we have the most commonly asked question of all, what is 3D printing?
3D printing can be d ...
3D Printer is an electronic machine that uses digital data to generate physical 3D models through successive layer printing. A 3D printer can make an object's physical model either scanned by a 3D scanner or designed using a CAD program. 3D Printing is an additive manufacturing technique where successive material layers create a three-dimensional object (Rapid Prototyping). The 3D printing concept is fascinating. Who is not excited about 3D printing? The use of inkjet technology in creating 3D models is a revolutionary method that costs less and saves time by eliminating the designing need for separate model parts. One can use a 3D printer to make a complete model in just a single process.
Several industries use 3D Printers in printing various out ...
I still remember the first time I had to choose between a strain gauge and a torque sensor. It was a cramped motor lab. Old bench. Coffee gone cold. The project manager wanted answers by Friday. On paper the choice looked simple. In the real world it never is. Every project has its own personality. Speed. Budget. Accuracy. Abuse level. And usually a deadline that doesn’t care about any of that.
If you have spent time around test stands and factory motors you know this dilemma well. Torque measurement sounds straightforward until you actually have to do it. That is when questions start piling up. How accurate do we really need to be. Will this thing survive vibration. Can we install it without tearing the whole setup apart. And the big one. Will it still read the same after six months of h ...
Hi, my friends and welcome back. I am happy to meet you again with a new tutorial of our PLC ladder logic programming series tutorials. Today we will complete what we started the last tutorial on the Elevator control project. We have a bunch of duties to complete together today. So let’s save time and jump into work immediately.
Project description:
Figure one shows the details that might help me describe the project between our hands. We have an elevator car that travels up and down and can stop on one of four floors based on the passengers’ requests. We have 6 push buttons on the wall next to the elevator door that can send requests to call the elevator. In addition, there is a control panel inside the elevator cabinet in which there are push buttons to request stations to reach floors ...

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.
