lengths between the model and the prototype.
Kinematic similarity : It implies similarity in motion.
Kinematic similarity between a model and the prototype is
attained if the homologous moving particles have the same
velocity ratio along geometrically similar paths. It involves the
scale of time as well as length.
Dynamic similarity : It implies similarity in forces involved in
motion.

Answer: In a a closed system (pipelines, or pumps), water
vaporises rapidly in regions where the pressure drops below
the vapour pressure. This phenomenon is called cavitation.
The vapour bubbles formed in cavitation usually collapse in a
violent manner, which may cause considerable damage to the
system.
49. In milling process, how the arbor torque can be

smoothend ?
Answer: Arbor torque can be smoothened by increasing
number of teeth, using higher spiral angle of teeth, using
higher cutting depth.

55. How does cavitation manifest itself in a centrifugal pump ?

Answer: Usual symptoms of cavitation of pump are noise,
vibration, a drop in head and capacity with a decrease in
efficiency, accompanied by pitting and corrosion of the
impeller vanes.
56. What happens if centrifugal pump is operated at excessive

speeds ?
Answer: When a pump is operated at excessive speeds, the
differential pressure developed increases and causes a
powerful pulsating vacuum on the underside of the blade tips
and each particle of water is pulled away from the blade,
taking away with it a small particle of metal, producing
pitting/grooved effect. Repeated erosive action results in
complete honey combing and total destruction of blade, with
resultant loss in pump performance.
57. On what parameters the head developed by a centrifugal

pump depends ?
Answer: It depends upon the impeller diameter and its
rotative speed.
58. Which factors determine the selection of electrolyte for

electrochemical machining process ?
Answer: Electrolyte should be chemically stable and have high
electrical conductivity.

low specific speed ?
Answer: For a.centrifugal pump having very low specific
speed, the impeller diameter is large and narrow having
excessively high disc friction and excessive hydraulic losses.
60. On what factors the efficiency of pump depends ?

Answer: Efficiency of a pump (centrifugal) depends on the
size, speed, and proportions of the impeller and casing.
61. On what factors the cavitation in centrifugal pumps is

dependent ?
Answer: Cavitation in centrifugal pumps depends on the
velocity of water entering tne impeller and on the relatiave
velocity of the impeller blades where the water is picked up.
62. What are the losses in a centrifugal pump ?

Answer: The losses in a centrifugal pump are : Friction losses
due to eddies in flow, leakage, friction loss due to rotation of
impeller in chamber of water, gland and bearing power losses.
63. What should be done to avoid cavitation in pumps ?

Answer: In order to avoid cavitation, the suction lift and the
operating speed must be carefully chosen.
64. What will happen if speed of reciprocating pump is

increased ?
Answer: If speed of a reciprocating pump is increased beyond
a limit, then atmospheric pressure would be insufficient to
force water into the pump at the same speed as the piston.
This would a break in the continuity of the water in suction
pipe (cavitation) and give rise to vibration, noise, and
chemical attack by any dissolved gases which may be released
from the water owing to the high vacuum and the breaking of
the water column.
65. What is the order of efficiency of cenetrifugal and

reciprocating pumps ?
Answer: The efficiency of centrifugal pump is of the order of
45% whereas that of reciprocting pump is around %.
66. What are the basic operations performed in a slotter ?

which are constrained by a circular casing, whose centre is
remote from that of the rotor.
(ii) Various combinations of gears, lobes, helices, etc. within a
casing arranged so that the lobes or teeth attached to each
rotor pass in sequence through the same pumping space.

size changes as inverse of change of speed.
70. How the incidence of cavitation detected ?

Answer: The incidence of cavitation is detected by the
following in order of appearance.
(i) stroboscopic observation of bubble appearance and size
(ii) sensitive acoustic tests of cavitation noise
(iii) reduction of efficiency and/or head of 3%.
71. How cavitation erosion is assessed ?

Answer: Cavitation erosion is assessed by depth of attack or
weight of metal removed.
72. At which temperature the cavitation erosion is negligible

and why ?
Answer: Cavitation erosion is negligible at above 300°C
because the water and steam have same densities at critical
temperature of 374°C and thus there is no volume change or
bubble collapse in the vicinity of this range.
73. What is an arbor ?

Answer: An arbor is an accurately machined shaft for holding
and driving the arbor type cutter. It is tapered at one end to fit
the spindle nose and has two slots to fit the nose keys for

turbulent flow in a pipe?
Answer: It depends on pipe diameter and the condition of the
pipe.
79. What does the realisation of velocity potential in fluid flow

indicate ?
Answer: It indicates that flow is irrotational.
80. What is the difference between potential flow and creep

flow ?
Answer: Potential flow assumes viscous forces to be zero but
same is considered larger than inertia forces in creep flow.
81. For which application Mach number and Froude numbers

are significant ?
Answer: Mach no. is significant in the study of projectiles and
jet propulsion. Froude number is significant in the study of
ship hulls.
82. What is the difference between geometric, kinematic, and

dynamic similarities between model and prototype ?
Answer: Geometric similarity is mainly for same shape for
model and prototype, kinematic similarity is concerned with
stream line pattern, whereas dynamic similarity concerns the
ratio of forces.
83. A body is floating in water. If it is displaced slightly then

about which point it will oscillate.
Answer: It will oscillate about centre of buoyancy.
84. Why uniform ramming is considered desirable in green

sand moulding process ?
Answer: Uniform ramming results in greater dimensional
stability of a casting.
85. On what account the friction drag is experienced ?

Answer: Friction drag is experienced on separation of
boundary layer.
86. What is the characteristic of centrifugally cast components

?
Answer: These have fine grain structure with high density.
87, Under what condition the separation of flow occurs ?

Answer: When pressure gradient changes abruptly.
88. What is the criterion for shaping of streamlined body ?

Answer: It is shaped to suppress the flow separation about the
body and to shift the boundary layer separation to near most
part of body to reduce the wake size.
89. What do you understand by entrance length and what is

its value for turbulent flow in smooth pipe ?
Answer: Entrance length of flow is the initial length in which
the flow develops fully such that the velocity profile remains
unchanged downstream. For turbulent flow in smooth pipe,
entrance length is taken as 50 x diameter of pipe.
90. Explain the difference between friction drag and pressure

drag.
Answer: Friction drag is the drag force exerted by a fluid on

the surface due to friction action when
the flow occurs past a flat surface at zero incidence. Pressure
drag is the additional drag force on
account of the differences of pressure over the body surface
when flow occurs past a surface which is
not everywhere parallel to the fluid stream. Pressure drag
depends upon separation of bondary layer
and the size of wake. Friction drag is due to shear stresses
generated due to viscous action.
91. What do you understand by choking in pipe line ?

Answer: When specified mass flow is not able to take place in
a pipe line.
92. What is the difference between streamline body and bluff

body ?
Answer: In streamline body the shape is such that separation
in flow occurs past the nearmost part of the body so that wake
formed is small and thus friction drag is much greater than
pressure drag. In bluff body the flow gets separated much
ahead of its rear resulting in large wake and thus pressure
drag is much greater than the friction drag.
93. What is the difference between dressing and trueing of a

grinding wheel ?
Answer: Dressing is the process used to clear the cutting
surface of the grinding wheel of any dull grits and embedded
swarf in order to improve the cutting action. Trueing is the
process employed to bring the wheel to the required geometric
shop and also to restore the cutting action of a worn wheel.
94. Whether hard grade or softer grade is required for internal

grinding than external grinding?
Answer: Softer graders of wheel are required for internal
grinding than for external grinding.
95. How is the velocity profile and stress distribution due to

laminar flow of an incompressible flow under steady
conditions in a circular pipe.
Answer: Velocity profile is parabolic with zero velocity at
boundary and maximum at the centre. Shear stress

distribution is linear, being maximum at boundary and zero at
centre.
96. Where the maximum velocity occurs in open channels ?

Answer: Near the channel bottom.
97. Define hydraulically efficient channel cross section.

Answer: The shape of such section is that which produces
minimum wetted perimeter for a given area of flow and
carries maximum flow.
9. What is follower rest ?

Ans .For slender work a travelling or follower rest is used.
This fits on the lathe – saddle and travels to and fro with it. By
this means support is constantly provided at the position of
cut. Thus the work piece being turn is rigidly held against the
tool.
99. What is the meaning of the term sensitive drill press ?

Answer: A sensitive drilling press is a light, simple, bench type
machine for light duty working with infinite speed ratio.
100. Why carburised machine components have high

endurance limit ?
Answer: In carburised machine components, the process of
carburisation introduces a compressive layer on the surface
and thus endurance limit is increased.
