Object: To find mechanical equivalent of heat using Joules apparatus.
Joules equivalent definition: It is the ratio of work done to the heat transferred from a system during a cycle and denoted by J cwhich
is known as Joules constant. It is only a unit conservation factor.
Jc = work/Heat
In SI system of units the value Jc is unit i.e., 1Nm = 1J.
Joules apparatus: The main component of joules apparatus is following there,
1. Water bath
2. Thermometer
3. Weight

Theory
The ratio of the mechanical (or electrical) unit for energy to the heat unit for energy is called the
mechanical equivalent of heat or Joule's equivalent. It is named after the British physicist Sir James
Joule (1818-1889) who was the first to measure the ratio in 1850. He used a mechanical device in
which mechanical energy of rotating paddle wheels (turned by falling weights) heated water in a
calorimeter. In this experiment, we shall determine the ratio of the energy supplied by an electric
current to the heat that it produces.
When a current flows in a conductor, the amount of work done to cause the current to flow is given by
W = VIt
(1)
where
W is the work done in J,
I is the current flowing in A,
V is the potential difference across the ends of the conductor in V, and
t is the time that the current flows in seconds.
If the heat energy that this current produces raises the temperature of a certain amount of water
(contained in a calorimeter) from temperature T1 to T2o C, the heat energy produced is given by
H = (mwcw + mccc + h)(T2 - T1)
(2)
where
H is the heat energy produced in calories,
m w is the mass of the water in g,
m c is the mass of the calorimeter in g,
c w is the specific heat of water (1 cal/goC),
c c is the specific heat of the calorimeter in cal/goC)
h is the heat capacity of the immersion heater, thermometer, and stirrer in cal/oC.
The value of the mechanical equivalent of heat may then be calculated from the ratio
W/H = IVt/{(mwcw + mccc + h)(T2 - T1)}
J/cal
(3)
The accepted value for this ratio is 4.186 J/cal.

The Circuit
Electrical Calorimeter
Procedure
1.
Connect up the circuit as shown above. Do not switch on the power supply yet. The heating coil
will quickly burn out if the current is switched on and it is not immersed in water.
2.
Weigh the inner calorimeter and record its mass in grams in the table below.
3.
Weigh the stirrer and thermometer separately and record their values.
4.
Fill the calorimeter with sufficient water from the cold water tap to just cover the heating coils
when immersed. Reweigh the calorimeter with the water and replace it in its insulating container. Place
the heating coil in the calorimeter.
5.
Set the variable resistor for maximum resistance. Stir the water in the calorimeter and measure
its initial temperature, T1 to the nearest 0.1 oC.
6.
Switch on the power supply and quickly adjust the variable resistor so that the ammeter reads
2.0 A. Start the stopwatch. Take the voltmeter reading and record it in the table. Adjust the variable
resistor periodically as needed to maintain the current at 2.0 A.
7.
Read the voltmeter at the beginning and end of the heating period and record the values in the
table. Stir the water periodically until its temperature has risen between 6 and 8 oC.
8.
Turn off the power supply and stop the stopwatch. Record the heating time in seconds in the
table. Continue stirring the water gently for a few minutes until it reaches its maximum temperature.
Read this value to the nearest 0.1oC and record the temperature, T2, in the table.
9.
Repeat procedures (4) through (8) for a current of 2.5 A.

Percent error ________
Calculations:
1.Using Equation (1), calculate the electrical energy used in J.
2.Calculate the heat energy produced in calories using Equation (2). The heat capacity of the stirrer,
thermometer, and immersion heater may be determined from the relation:
h = mass of stirrer x specific heat of stirrer + mass of the thermometer x specific heat of glass + mass of
the thermometer x specific heat of mercury (or alcohol) + the heat capacity of the immersion heater
(about 1 cal/oC).
3.Calculate the value of the mechanical equivalent of heat using Equation (3) and determine its average
value from the two sets of data.
Result:
mechanical equivalent of heat (J). It is the ratio of work done to the transferred from a system during a
cycle and denoted by Jc which is known as Joule’s Constant. It is only a unit conservation factor.

Experiment No. 2
Object:To study working of impulse and reaction steam turbine by models.
Apparatus:Model of Impulse and Reaction steam turbines.
Theory:
Steam turbines: The steam turbine is a prime mover in which the potential energy of steam is
transformed into kinetic energy and later in its turn is transformed into the mechanical energy of the
rotation of the turbine shaft.
Classification of steam turbine: With respect to the action of steam, turbine are classified as:
Impulse turbine

Reaction turbine
1. Impulse turbine: It is a turbine, which runs by the impulse of steam jet. In this turbine, the steam
is first made to flow through a nozzle. Then the steam jet impinges on the turbine blades with are
curved like bucket and are mounted on the circumference of the wheel. The steam jet after impinges
glide over the concave surface of blades and finally leave the turbine.
The top portion of Impulse turbine exhibits a longitudinal section through the upper half, the middle
portion shows one set of nozzle which is flowed by a ring of moving blades, while lower part indicate
changes in pres and velocity during the flow of steam through the turbine. The principle equation of
this turbine is the well known “De level” turbine.

Figure of Impulse Turbine
2. Reaction turbine: In a Reaction turbine, the steam enters the wheel under pressure and flow over
the blades. The steam while gliding proper the blades and then makes them to move. The turbine runner
is rotated by the reactive forces of steam jets.
In this, there is a gradual pressure drop takes place continuously over the fixed and moving blades. The
fuel of fixed blades is that they after allow it expand to a larger velocity as the steam passes over the
moving blades. Its K.E. is absorbed by them a three stage Reaction turbine.
Compounding: If the steam is expended from the boiler pressure in one stage the speed of rotor
becomes tremendously high which drop up practical complicacies. They are several methods of
reducing this speed to lower value, all these methods utilized a multiple system of rotor in series.
Keyed on a common shaft and the steam pressure or jet velocity is absorbed in stage as the steam flows
over the blades. This is known as compounding:-
1. Velocity compounding: Steam is expanded through a stationary nozzle from the boiler or inlet
pressure to condenser pressure. So the pressure in the nozzle drops, the K. E. of steam increase due to
8
increase in velocity. A portion of this available energy is absorbed by a row of moving blades. The
steam then flow through the second row of the blades which are fixed. They redirect the steam flow
without altering its velocity to the flowing nearest row moving blades. Where again work is done on
them and steam with a low velocity from the turbine.
2. Pressure compounding: In this rings of fixed nozzle incorporated between ring of moving blades.
The steam of boiler pressure enters the first set of nozzle and expands partially. The K.E. of steam thus
obtained in absorbed by the moving blades. The steam then expands partially in the second set of
nozzles whose its pressure again falls and the velocity increases. The K.E. thus obtained is observed by
the second ring of moving blades. This is repeated in stage 3 and steam finally leaves the turbine at low
velocity and pressure.
3. Pressure- Velocity compounding: This method is the combination of velocity and pressure
compounding. The total drop in steam pressure is divided into stages and velocity obtained in each
stage is also compounded. The ring of nozzle, are fired at beginning of each stage and pressure remains
constant during each stage.

Operation Instruction:
Connect the two plugs to main. Before ON the supply, confIrm that all the switches on panel are off
position. See the dimmerstat is at zero position. Then put ON the heater switch & give power to
heater. This will heat the water in evaporator & this can be seen dial thermometer. Adjust the heater
voltage such that the Temperature dial thermometer reading reaches 25 - 300 C.
Now ON the D.P. switches. Put ON the condenser fan switch & wait for 2 - 3 minutes. Now switch

Conclusion:
The actual C.O.P. is less than the theoretical due to the losses at different points also the temperature are
measured at somewhat different positions.
Precautions:
1.
Do not operate the charging valve
2.
Before switching ON supply see that all the switches on the panel board are off & the dimmer stat is at
‘Zero’ position
3.
The evaporator contains adequate water.
4.
Proper earthing is provided.
5.
In case supply fails while the trial is going on. Off the switches & also dimmer stat restore before
switching ON confirm that the H.P. & L.P. pressure gauges show equal readings. If there is difference of
pressure wait till the gauge pressure are equal.
6.
Stabilised supply for the equipment is necessary for better performance & the life of the compressor

Experiment No. 4
Object:To study working of Gas turbines by models and to identify various processes of Brayton Cycle.
Theory:
A simple gas turbine power plant is shown in Fig. 5.1. Air is first compressed adiabatically in process a-b, it then
enters the combustion chamber where fuel is injected and burned essentially at constant pressure in process b-c,
and then the products of combustion expand in the turbine to the ambient pressure in process c-d and are thrown
out to the surroundings. The cycle is open. The state diagram on the p-v coordinates is shown in fig. 5.2. Open
cycles are used in aircraft, automotive (buses and trucks) and industrial gas turbine installation.
19
The Brayton cycle is the air standard cycle for the gas turbine power plant. Here air is first compressed
reversibly and adiabatically, heat is added to it reversibly at constant pressure, air expands in the
turbine reversibly and adiabatically, and heat is then rejected from the air reversibly at constant
pressure to bring it to the initial state. The Brayton cycle, therefore, consists of:
Two reversibly isobars and two reversible adiabatics.
20
The flow, p-v, and T-s diagrams are shown in fig. 5.3. For m kg of air
𝑄1 = ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑡 𝑠𝑢𝑝𝑝𝑙𝑖𝑒𝑑 = 𝑚𝑐𝑝 (𝑇3 − 𝑇2 )

The efficiency of the Brayton cycle, therefore, depends upon either the compression ratio or the
pressure ration. For the same compression ratio, the Brayton cycle efficiency is equal to the Otto cycle
efficiency.
A closed cycle gas turbine plant (fig. 5.3) is used in a gas-cooled nuclear reactor plant, where the source
is a high temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGR) supplying heat from nuclear fission directly to the
working fluid (a gas).

Experiment No.5
AIM- To plot specific fuel consumption versus rpm diagrams for diesel and petrol
engines.
Apparatus- Four-Stroke Single-Cylinder Diesel Engine & Petrol Engine, Stop Watch, and Digital
Tachometer,
THEORY:Under some circumstances (i.e Electric Generator) C. I. Engines are required to run at constant
speed. For this purpose the test is to be performed at constant speed and the load is varied from zero to
maximum. When load on the engine increases its speed decreases. Accordingly the fuel supply is
adjusted to keep the engine speed constant. Corresponding to each load setting, dynamometer readings
and fuel consumption rate are measured. The BP, BSFC, BMEP, A/F, and Mechanical Efficiency are
calculated from measured data and plotted against the load.
FORMULE USED:(i) Torque, T = 9.81 x W x R Effective N-m.
Where R Effective = (D + d)/ 2 or (D + tBelt)/ 2 m,
W (Load) = ( S1 - S2)Kg,
(ii) Brake Power, B P = ( 2πN T ) / 60, 000 KW
Where N = rpm,
T = Torque N-m,
(iii) Fuel Consumption, m f = ( 50 ml x 10 -6 x ρ Fuel ) / ( t ) Kg/Sec.
23
Here; 1 ml = 10-3 liters, and 1000 liters = 1 m3
So, 1 ml = 10-6 m3
(iv) Brake Mean Effective Pressure,
BMEP = (BP x 60,000)/ ( L Stroke x A x N’) N/ m2
Where L Stroke = Stroke m, A (Cross Section of the Cylinder)
= (π D2Bore)/ 4 m2,
N’ (Number of Power Strokes/ min.) = N/ 2 per min. ; For Four-Stroke Engine.= N per min;
For Two-Stroke Engine., and N = rpm.
(v) Brake Specific Fuel Consumption, BSFC = ( m f x 3600 ) / B P Kg/ KW . hr (vi) Mass of
the Air, m Air = Cd Ao √2 g Δh ρ Air ρ Water Kg/ Sec
Where Cd ( Co-efficient of Discharge ) = 0.6,
ρ Air = ( Pa x 102 ) / ( R x Ta ) Kg/ m3 A2
o ( Area of Orifice ) = (π do )/ 4 m2, Pa = 1.01325 Bar,
R = 0.287 KJ/Kg . K, Ta = ( ta + 273 ) K, ta = Ambient Temperature C
(vii) Air Fuel Ratio, A/F = ( m Air / m f ) Kg/ Kg of Fuel
(viii) Mechanical Efficiency, η mechanical = BP / IP
