In this article, I will discuss Crossflow Turbine. Crossflow turbine comes under the category of impulse turbines. I also explained the working principle and components of a crossflow turbine through diagrams. Crossflow turbines are specifically designed for micro and small hydroelectric power projects with a high flow rate. This is a low-pressure turbine. Hydropower is … Read more
The jet engine is a well-known type of engine. Jet engines push the aircraft forward with tremendous force, causing the aircraft to fly too high. The same concept applies to all aircraft engines commonly known as gas turbine engines. The engine draws in the air with the help of a fan. The compressor enhances the … Read more

A chain survey is a particular type of survey method in which only linear measurement is taken. Linear measurements are taken in the field. Angular measurements are not taken in chain surveying. Chain surveying is also called chain triangulation. Chain surveying is used when the area is small. It is not feasible for a large … Read more
Forging is a manufacturing process in which localized compressive force is used to shape the metal. Forging is one of the oldest metalworking processes. The forging process involves plastic deformation of the metal between two dies to achieve the required configuration. Based upon the complexity of the parts, forging is carried out as closed die … Read more
Bill of Quantity (BOQ) also known as Bill of Material (BOM). Bill of quantity contains materials described with respect to their units and prices of a unit. BOQ is prepared by quantity surveyors and cost consultants with the coordination of architectures and engineers. Cost consultants get all the details such as labor cost, material price … Read more
