Five Dangers Associated With The Air Compressors

-



Following are the five dangers associated with the air compressors
  • Rupture
  • Oil Leaks
  • Foreign Particles
  • Overheating
  • Part failure

Rupture

One of the biggest dangers associated with the air compressors is the rupture of the air compressor under high pressure. Air compressors are made of heavy metals sheets and when air compressors will blast then it will break into small pieces of metal. Each one they will be able to kill any person which came under its range. 

Oil Leak

Lubrication is used to run the different parts of compressor smoothly but when proper care is not taken then this oil can leak into the compressor. If the compressor is being used in any workshop where fire or torch is being used then this oil leakage can very dangerous as it can cause explosion in the case both came in contact.

Foreign Particles

Any kind of unwanted particles which can go inside the compressor are very dangerous for the compressors and people working near the compressors. Foreign particles can cause explosion if they are flame able and came in contact with fire or they can block the outlet of compressor thus causing explosion due to high pressure.

Overheating

Filling the compressor with any gas under high pressure cause increase in temperature of the compressor and gas it is known that metal and gasses expand on heating. So of temperature of compressor increase more than it can handle the it can compressor failure which can cause fire at work place.

Part failure

In the case when proper maintenance is not done then ay part of the compressor can fail under ay condition. Part failure can be extremely dangerous for the worker working nearby because air in air compressor is at such a high pressure that its thin stream can create a hole in human body or can damage any sensitive part like eyes or ears

To understand the deflection of beam Objective of  deflection of beam lab report 1. Learn basic working of beam 2. Perform theoretical calculation for deflection of beam 3. Perform series of experiment with different material, shapes and load  for beam 4. Compare the result and Discuss the finding Introduction to  deflection of beam Load supporting element in any structure that is installed in horizontal direction and take load perpendicular to its length is called a beam.   Based on the way it is installed in structure, beam can be classified in to four main types.  First simply supported beam which have supports at its both ends, second is overhanging beam which have length extended over its supports, third is overhanging beam which have more than two supports and fourth is cantilever beam which fixed only at one end and other end is free.  There are three basic types of supports available for beams which includes fixed ends support, pined connection support and roller end support.

Aim of Bending Moment in a Beam Aim of this experiment is to study effect of force magnitude on bending moment of beam Recommended:   Deflection of Beam Lab Report Theory Bending Moment in a Beam Beams A structural element which is designed and used to bear high load of structure and other external load is called beam. There are many different types of beam like cantilever beam, simple supported beam and overhanging beam.  Bending of Beam When an external load or the structural load applied in beam is large enough to displace the beam from its present place, then that deflection of beam from its resent axis is called bending of beam.  Bending Moment In simple words bending moment is the product of force applied on beam with the distance between the point of application of force and fixed end of the beam Introduction to Experiment of Bending Moment in a Beam This experiment is about studying the effect of force magnitude on bending of beam and for that structure hardwar

Aim of Bernoulli experiment Aim of this experiment is to compare the behaviour of ideal fluid and real fluid using Bernoulli experiment. Objective of Bernoulli Theorem 1. Use the venture meter apparatus to perform Bernoulli experiment and the effect of area of the flow velocity and fluid pressure 2. Use the Bernoulli’s equation /  Bernoulli theorem  to compare the behaviour of ideal and real fluid Introduction  Bernoulli Experiment According to the Bernoulli’s experiment when area available for the fluid to flow decrease then flow of fluid increase and at the mean while time the fluid pressure or the fluid potential energy decreases. Read about the Effect of Sluice Gate on the Flow of Fluid .  This principle was name after the Daniel Bernoulli who first writes this principle in book named Hydrodynamic.  Following are some of the application of the Bernoulli experiment Find the Air-flight Lift Baseball Draft Sailing Theory of Bernoulli's Theorem Experiment According to Mil
