FROM HOD'S DESK..

Dear Students,
It gives me an immense pleasure to introduce you to our  Department Newsletter cum Interactive Platform named “THINK OUT OF THE BOX”.  This Newsletter and our Website, is brought to you with a motive to showcase the activities of the department, achievements made, seminars & workshops conducted and notably to enhance your learning process.  Furthermore it aims to provide an interactive platform to share your ideas through our blog and facebook with your friends. 
Don’t restrict your thoughts to the boundaries of the classroom. Let your imagination and thoughts flow. I wish you all to break the barriers and think out of the box.
Join hands!  Prepare your self before you fall on the long run of your life.
Wishing you all the best
HOD of Mechanical Department


## STAFF SPEAK




Mr. M.SANTHOSHAM SIR
PROFESSOR

Automobile cylinder during manufacturing is checked for its inner diameter in order to accommodate the moving piston such that the moving fit is quite efficient. The higher the tolerance between the cylinder and the piston, the lesser the fuel efficiency. To achieve a better efficiency, each cylinder is checked for its inner diameter instead of random sampling.

 Every cylinder and piston are checked for 100% for their dimensions and for perfect fit. Industries follow such inspection standards to increase the efficiency of the engine. Modern inspection are adopted to maintain the dimensions to such a level of efficiency.Once, it has been reported by a Hero Honda customer that his motor bike gave 120km/hr. When he showed the bike to them, they took back the same and paid him double. This shows that the fit when perfect will improve the engine efficiency.

SMILE WITH US !!!


A mechanical engineer died & went to heaven. Upon arrival Angel checked "THE BOOK" and didn't find his name, so he informed the engineer that he must get on the elevator and go DOWNSTAIRS.Reluctantly the engineer boarded the elevator for the long trip DOWNSTAIRS and upon arrival in hell found that he was very uncomfortable due to the excessive heat. He asked to see the devil and was granted an interview, at which time he requested a large number of materials with which to build an air conditioner. The devil replied that he could have anything he wished, and what he couldn't find, they would steal. So the engineer spent a month and a half building an air conditioner, which when completed, cooled hell off only a few degrees. Somewhat unsatisfied the engineer requested additional materials, with which he spent another month and a half building a sprinkler system to add to the cooling effect of his air conditioner. Hell was getting much cooler now and folks were more...



WHATS THIS ??

NAME OUT ALL THE LOGO'S WITH DESCRIPTION AND GET CREDITS !!!!!!

MECH TALK - TWISTING THE TUSK OF TECHNOLOGY



The Bahrain World Trade Center is the first skyscraper to have wind turbines integrated into the structure of the building. Three large turbines are suspended between two office towers, The towers are aerodynamically tapered to funnel wind and draw air into the turbines. This airfoil tapering allows the wind to enter the turbines at a perpendicular angle and increases air speed as much as 30 percent in each of the 95 ft wide turbine rotors. The turbine supply about 15 percent of the electricity used by the skyscraper-approximately the same amount of electricity used by 300 homes
