Syllabus & Course Structure
Laboratories
Fluid Mechanics Lab: The Fluid Mechanics Lab is an indispensable supplement to the theory of Fluid Mechanics. It helps students to understand by performing experiments on the basic laws and equations used for analysis of static and dynamic fluids.
Hydraulic Machines Lab: The main activities of the Laboratory for Hydraulic Machines are teaching, research and service in the field of hydrodynamics of rotating machines such as hydraulic turbines, pumps, etc. Both theoretical and experimental aspects are investigated with a particular emphasis on the industrial applications such as the design, the installation and the operation of hydraulic machines. Measurements of critical Performance parameters like efficiency, flow rate etc. of various hydraulic machines such as turbines, pumps are also measured in this lab. The equipment is operated in a closed loop system which conserves water and averts the need for large quantities of water supply. A separate section is devoted to display cut models of different components of pumps and turbines.
CAD/CAM Lab: This lab aims to train the students in solid modelling, surface modelling, assembly modelling, mechanism design and drafting. The latest version of modelling software CATIA V6 is used in the lab.CAD Lab is also equipped with structural and CFD analysis softwares like ANSYS and FLUENT which helps students to conduct numerical analysis on complex structures and fluid flow problems.
Heat Engines Lab: The lab includes the study of systems & components of IC Engines and study of dynamometers used in engine testing. The lab also provides the experience on; testing the performance of IC engines and testing of fuels & lubricants, which includes the determination of their flash and fire points, viscosity and calorific values.
Mechanical Measurements Lab: This lab aims at introducing relevant measurement systems and equipment’s that are used on the shop floor and in calibration rooms. Basic knowledge about the usage of measuring devices, their calibration and measurement standards are imparted to the students.
Advanced Machine Tools Lab: This lab gives students relevant exposure in the use of advanced machine tools like shaping machine, slotting machine and milling machines. Together with machine tools lab, it aims at enhancement of practical skills as well as development of awareness about machine upkeep, safety practices etc.
Mechanical Systems Lab
The lab includes the study of systems related to various modes of heat transfer, air conditioning and refrigeration systems. The lab also aims to educate students on various governors, gyroscope, vibration apparatus and compressors.
Machine Tools Laboratory
This lab gives students relevant exposure to important machining processes that are in use in the industry. It gives hands on experience in the use of the Lathes, drilling machine and welding equipment’s (TIG, MIG and Gas Welding). Lab also gives training on CNC lathe machine and thereby can also gain knowledge in CNC part programming.
