This document discusses hardness testing methods. It defines hardness as resistance to indentation, scratching, or wear. Common hardness tests include indentation hardness using Brinell, Vickers, and Rockwell tests which measure the resistance of a material to permanent indentation from static or dynamic loads. Rebound hardness measures energy absorption under impact loads using a scleroscope. Scratch and wear hardness measure resistance to scratching and abrasion. Relationships between hardness values and material properties like tensile strength are provided. Test procedures, calculations, and applications of different hardness tests are described.

The hardness test is a mechanical test for material properties which are used in engineering
design, analysis of structures, and materials development. The principal purpose of the
hardness test is to determine the suitability of a material for a given application, or the
particular treatment to which the material has been subjected. The ease with which the
hardness test can be made has made it the most common method of inspection for metals and
alloys.

NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
2. Hardness: It is the resistance of material surface to occurs any
variation on it under loads as scratch, indentation, abrasion. No
single measure of hardness, universally applicable to all
materials, has yet been devised.
Indentation hardness: Resistance of a material to permanent
indentation under static or dynamic load.
Rebound hardness: Energy absorption under impact loads.
Scratch hardness: Resistance of a material to scratching.
Wear hardness: Resistance of a material to abrasion.
Machinability: Resistance of a material to cutting or drilling.

STATIC INDENTATION HARDNESS TESTS
Because of the simplicity of the indentation hardness
tests, they have become one of the important quality
control tests of metals and they are considered as
non-destructive tests. The Brinell, Vickers and Rockwell
tests are the most commonly used as the static
indentation hardness tests.
1- Brinell hardness test
In this test, the hardness of a
metal is obtained from the
dimensions of the impression
made by a steel ball after the
ball has been pressed into the
metal under a known load.

There is an empirical relationship, for steels, between the tensile
strength and BHN which may be expressed as follows:
u = BHN x 0.36 (kg/mm2)
u = BHN x 0.22 (ton/in2)
u = BHN x 500 (psi)
In spite of the Brinell test is a simple one to make, several
precautions are necessary in order to obtain good results. These
precautions are as follows:
It is not adapted to testing extremely hard materials, because the
ball itself may deform.
It is not satisfactory for testing thin pieces such as razor blades,
because the usual indentation may be greater than the thickness of
the piece.
It is not adapted to testing case hardened surfaces, because the
depth of the indentation may be greater than the thickness of the
case and because the yielding of the soft cores.

Thickness of test specimen should be at least 10 times the depth
of indentation (h).
Specimen surface should be cleaned and polished
Full load must be applied for 15-30 sec.

7. 7
If an indentation is made too near the edge of the specimen or too close
to a previous one, it may be too large owing to lack of sufficient
supporting material. However, tests have shown that the error may be
neglected if the distance of the center of the indentation from the edge
of the specimen or from the center of adjacent indentations is equal to
or greater than 2.5 times or 4 times the diameter of the indentation
respectively.
The size of the balls used is: 10, 5, 2 and 1 mm diameters according to:
- The structure of the metal,
- Size of indentation and dimensions of specimen
- Load applied.

2- Vickers hardness test
The Vickers hardness tester is somewhat similar to the Brinell in
that an indentation is made and the hardness number is determined
from the ratio P of the load exerted by a mass P ( in kgs) to the
contact surface area A of the indentation ( in mm2) .

HARDNESS TEST
One advantage of the Vickers machine over the Brinell machine lies
in the shape of the indentation: A much more accurate reading can
be taken from the diagonal of a square than can be taken from the
diameter of a circle, where the measurement must be made between
two tangents. The Vickers machine provides a fairly rapid method of
measuring hardness and can be used on metal as thin as 0.15 mm. It
is said to be accurate for hardness as high as 1300 (about 850 BHN).
This method is useful for obtaining hardness for case hardened
surfaces.
3- Rockwell hardness test
The indenter or "penetrator" may be either a steel ball of diameter
1/16" (1.41 mm) or a diamond cone with somewhat rounded of 0.2
mm radius.
The Rockwell test differs from the Brinell test in that the indenters
and the loads are smaller (the masses being 60, 100, 150 kg), and
that the resulting indentation is smaller and shallower. It is faster
because it gives direct readings. Therefore the Rockwell test is
widely used in industrial work.
12. Several different scales may be utilized from possible combinations
of various indenters and different loads, which permit the testing
of virtually all metal alloys (as well as some polymers). Each scale
is represented by a letter of the alphabet; several are listed with the
corresponding indenter and load in this table.

HARDNESS TEST
A Rockwell test is made by slowly elevating a specimen against the
indenter until a minor load has been applied; as indicated by an index
hand on a dial gage, minor load = 10 kg. Dial of apparatus is then set
at zero. A major load is then applied by releasing a load lever system
(major load = 50, 90 or 140 kg) as shown in Figure. The major load is
removed and, while the minor load still acting, the Rockwell hardness
number is read on the dial gage. The utilization of a minor load causes
initial indentation that sets the indenter on the material and holds it
in position, thus enhances test accuracy
14. 14
HARDNESS TEST
Dynamic hardness
The hardness measured by this instrument is often referred to as
rebound hardness. Scleroscope hardness is expressed by a number
given by the height of rebound of small pointed hammer after
falling within a glass tube from a height of 10 in (254 mm) against
the surface of the specimen. The height of rebound is measured
against a scale graduated into 140 equal parts.
Scratch hardness
The materials are arranged with respect to their ability to scratch
each other. Scale is set up in terms of several materials, each of
which will just scratch the material of next lower hardness number.
Moh was the first to give mineralogists a scratch hardness scale,
talc being at one end and diamond at the other.
Wear hardness
The wear hardness is the resistance of the material surface to
abrasion or wear and it measured by abrasion test, which is
performed by pressing the sample against the surface of a rotating
table to which an abrasive powder is applied in specific time.
The weight loss indicate the wear resistance.

HARDNESS TEST
Example 1
Machinability
It is the resistance of the material to cutting or drilling; the hardness
is measured as the depth of a hole made by a special drill in a given
time, while running at a constant speed and pressure.
