Test for straightness by using spirit level and Autocollimator
The straightness of any surface could be determined by either of these instruments by measuring the relative angular positions of number of adjacent sections of the surface to be tested. First straight line is drawn on the surface then it is divided into a number of sections the length of each section being equal to the length of sprit level base or the plane reflector’ s base in case of auto collimator. The bases of the spirit level block or reflector are fitted with two feet so that only feet have line contact with the surface and the surface of base does not touch the surface to he tested. The angular division obtained is between the specified two points. Length of each section must be equal to distance between the centerlines of two feet. The special level can be used only for the measurement of straightness of horizontal surfaces while auto-collimator can be used on surfaces are any plane. In case of spirit level, the block is moved along the line equal to the pitch distance between the centerline of the feet and the angular variation of the direction of block. Angular variation can be determined in terms of the difference of height between two points by knowing the least count of level and length of the base.

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.

Pitch, Angle
• Effective diameter of screw threads by;
• 2-wire
• 3-wire methods.
• Best size wire.
• Screw thread gauges
• Tool maker’s microscope
7. SCREW THREAD TERMINOLOGY
Definition (Screw thread)
As per American Society of Tool and Manufacturing Engineers (ASTME)
• Screw thread is the helical ridge produced by forming a continuous helical groove
of uniform section on the external or internal surface of a cylinder.
11. SCREW THREAD TERMINOLOGY
• Forms of thread: Shape / contour of one complete thread, (in axial section).
Example: BSW, American Standard, ISO, Sellers, Buttress, Acme, etc.)
• Axis of thread (pitch line): Imaginary line running longitudinally through the
centre of the screw.
12. SCREW THREAD TERMINOLOGY
• Angle of thread: Angle between the flanks of a thread (Also called as included
angle.)
• Flank angle: Angle formed between a flank of the thread and the perpendicular to
the axis of the thread.
• Fundamental triangle: Imaginary triangle formed when the flanks are extended, till
they meet each other to form apex.
13. SCREW THREAD TERMINOLOGY
• Pitch: Distance between two corresponding crest or root.
• Lead: The axial distance moved by the screw, when the screw is given one
complete revolution.
14. SCREW THREAD TERMINOLOGY
• Major (nominal) diameter: The largest diameter of a screw thread.
• Minor (core) diameter: The smallest diameter of a screw thread.
• Pitch diameter / Effective diameter: The imaginary diameter of a cylinder, passing
through the threads at the points where the thread width is equal to the space
between the threads.
15. Measurement of Major Diameter
Measurement of a major diameter by;
1. Screw thread micrometer (Comparator)
2. Bench micrometer
16. Measurement of Major Diameter
1. Screw thread micrometer
• Micrometer is set over the master/standard cylinder having approx. dia (D)
• Micrometer is then set over the Major diameter (M) and reading is recorded (R)
• M = D ± (Rs ~ R ) (D= Dia. of the master)
18. Measurement of Major Diameter
2. Bench micrometer
• Designed to remove the deficiencies of the hand micrometer.
• Fiducial micrometer ensures the readings are taken with uniform pressure.
• Used as a comparator.
• Procedure is same as of ordinary micrometer.
19. Measurement of Minor Diameter
Measurement of a minor diameter by;
1. Floating carriage micrometer
20. Measurement of Minor Diameter
1. Floating carriage micrometer
• M = D ± (Rs ~ R ) (D= Dia. of the master)
21. Measurement of Minor Diameter
1. Floating carriage micrometer
• Minor diameter is measured by a comparative process.
• V-pieces are placed on each side of the screw.
• The small V-pieces makes contact at the root of the threads.
• Initial reading is taken by mounting a setting cylinder/ master.
• Then threaded workpiece is mounted between the centres and the reading is taken.
• The difference in the two readings directly gives the error in the minor diameter.
22. Measurement of Effective Diameter
• A notional value.
• Cannot be measured directly.
• An indirect approach to be followed i.e. (Measurement by wire method)
Principle
• Small, hardened steel wires (best-size wire) are placed in the groove and the
distance over them is measured as part of the measurement process.
23. Measurement of Effective Diameter
There are three methods of using wires:
• One-wire method
• Two-wire method
• Three-wire methods.
24. Measurement of Effective Diameter
Two-wire method
In this method, two steel wires of identical diameter are placed on opposite
flanks of a screw, as shown in Fig.
• First the micrometer reading is taken over the standard.
• The standard is replaced by the screw thread and the reading is recorded.
• Difference between reading over the standard and the screw thread is taken as a
measurement of Effective diameter.
Pitch line
25. Measurement of Effective Diameter
Two-wire method
T = M − 2d
M= Dimension over wires
d = diameter of the best-size wire
Effective diameter (E); E = T + P
T = Dimension under the wires
P = Correction factor
P depends on diameter of wire, pitch and thread angle
‘P’ value can be calculated from the following formula;
P = 0.86602 X p (ISO & Unified)
P = 0.96049 X p = 1.16568 x d (BSW)
Where, p = Pitch
d = mean diameter of wires used.
P = Difference between effective dia and dia under the wires.
26. Two-wire method If the size of the wire contacts the flanks at the pitch
line, it is called the best size wire, can be determined
by the geometry of screw thread;
27. Best Wire Size
If the size of the wire contacts the flanks at the pitch line, called the best size
wire, determined by the geometry of screw thread.

30. Measurement of Effective Diameter
Diameter of Best-size Wire
• The best size wire to be selected as recommended in IS 6311.
‘P’ value can be calculated from the following formula;
• P = 0.86602 X p (ISO & Unified)
• P = 0.96049 X p =1.16568 x d (BSW)
Where p = Pitch
d = mean diameter of wires used.
31. Measurement of Effective Diameter
Three-wire method
• M = Distance over the wires
• E = Effective diameter
• d = diameter of best-size wires
• H = height of threads
32. Measurement of Effective Diameter
Three-wire method
h = is the height of the centre of wire from the pitch line.
h = OC − BC.
33. Measurement of Effective Diameter
Three-wire method
Distance over wires, M = E + 2h + 2r
r = radius of the wires
Therefore, effective diameter
35. • Used to measure the pitch or lead of a screw thread.
• Not a precision measurement, only for reference.
• To determine the profile of the given thread and quickly categorize the thread
by form and pitch.

37. Measurement of Pitch
Pitch Measuring Machine
• Position the stylus between the flanks of the
thread along the pitch line.
• Ensure the fiducial indicator reads 0.
• Record the initial reading.
• Move the stylus into the adjacent flank and
record the reading.
• Difference between the two readings is taken
as a measurement of pitch.
