We have seen various accidents in aviation industry due to which we lost many lives as well as money. This idea will be very useful in future, basically this idea consist of 3 parts:-
1-PREVENTION FROM COLLISION IN AIR :-
In this all the planes will connected to the satellite and satellite keeps watching all the planes,
This model is a spark plug which is newly developed to work accurately than before (old one). It is designed to eliminate the air pollution due to unburnt air fuel mixture in the combustion chamber and also decrease the percentage of carbon dioxide and other gaseous.
My patented Planot® speaker design has no box, no tweeter, no crossover and no narrow sound. It has none of the drawbacks of old fashioned cones-in-a-box speakers. My educated guess is that 99% of all speakers in the world are wooden boxes with 2 paper cones and a crossover.
ABSTRACT:
This concept focuses on the utilization of engine waste heat energy and it is done by the ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle), which uses the refrigerant as a working fluid by replacing coolant (Ethylene Glycol) from engine jacket. The ORC generates high pressure to run the turbine of turbocharger.
The AUTOMATIC BILL PAYING MACHINE or BILL COUNTER AUTOMATION is used to reduce the human intervention of paying bills in shops and toll gates where a person has to be there to receive the cash and return the balance.
Although counter-intuitive, evolutionary internal combustion engine concepts are often times preferred over revolutionary ones. Although intriguing theoretical engine designs abound, a truly revolutionary engine concept’s value is questionable if it can’t be produced in quantity, inexpensively, and also provide reliable service. On the other hand, traditional reciprocating internal combustion engines are well understood,
Perpetual Mobility and Sustainment on Water –
Net Zero Cost No Longer a Panacea
In September of 2009 Planet Solar became the first solar only powered vessel to circumnavigate the planet - to prove the feasibility of solar generated electricity as a source of power to move vessels in perpetuity without the use of fossil fuels.
This entry is for the Mass Ignition Internal Combustion Engine (MIICE). Most similar in operation to the spark ignition, Otto Cycle engine, the MIICE concept is uniquely characterized by a fuel / air ratio sub-LEL (Lower Explosive Limit) at all times and by ignition throughout a volume. These characteristics lead to increased thermal efficiency at full load,
Did you experience feet pain after walking for a period? And you just simply accept as you think that is normal?
Here to share you instrumented footwear that enables real-time monitoring and addressing unhealthy walking pattern (abnormal gait) by giving tactile feedback to the user.
It is low cost,
Overloading on vehicles is one of the major problem in the entire world and its hard to stop it by applying strong laws but what if we disable the vehicle to run if its overloaded. We know it will be strongly deniable by the customers but as engineers we are trying to make the world a safer one.
