Mercedes benz service centre training reportPanchal Anand
Industrial training (Internship) Report.
Mercedes_benz Service centre.
Abstract: As a Mechanical Engineering Student I am very interested in automobile Engineering. I always keen to learn different mechanisms used in vehicles, I used to watch animated videos on YouTube about automobile mechanisms like Differential, Automatic transmission gearbox etc, but I never watched it in real. So, it was a great opportunity for me to do two weeks internship at Mercedes-benz Service centre, Ambli, Ahmedabad. The internship was concentrated on the car services. At the beginning of the internship I had several queries in my mind regarding the different technologies used in Mercedes-benz and what skills are needed in organization. During my internship several queries are cleared by doing some activities. The objective of this internship is to understand working of different mechanisms, to get knowledge of regular services and the major-minor problem that can be observed in day to day life. Apart from technical knowledge, I also learnt rules and safety instruction, Inventory management, Quality Control. I realize the responsibility of technicians working on the car. So, this internship was a great experience. I found out how much I am strong in automobile field. I gained new knowledge and skills and met many new people. Working together with people having different background and education was great experience. I also accompanied by other 2-3 students who were also on industrial training, so it was nice knowledge sharing. I achieved many of my learning goals. I got insight into the work of an organization. At last this internship has given me new insights and motivation to pursue a career in mechanical engineering.
The flywheelis located on one end of the crankshaft and serves two purposes. First, through its inertia, it reduces vibration
by smoothing out the power stroke as each cylinder fires. Second, it is the mounting surface used to bolt the engine
up to its load.
The aim of the project is to design a flywheel for a multi cylinder petrol engine flywheel using the empirical formulas. A
2D drawing is drafted using the calculations. A parametric model of the flywheel is designed using 3D modeling software
Pro/Engineer.
The forces acting on the flywheel are also calculated. The strength of the flywheel is validated by applying the forces on
the flywheel in analysis software ANSYS.
Structural analysis, modal analysis and fatigue analysis are done on the flywheel. Structural analysis is used to determine
whether flywheel withstands under working conditions. Fatigue analysis is done for finding the life of the component.
Modal analysis is done to determine the number of mode shapes for flywheel.

Design and Fabrication of Weed Removing VehicleJaykumar Desai
The weed removing machine is available in the various types like reel (cylinder) mower, rotary mower, hover mower, riding mower, professional mower etc, but these are very costly and unaffordable. It requires a skilled person to operate as there are weeds and unwanted crops on the field which may consume the nutritious elements which are intended for the crop that is to be grown. The main objective of the project is to develop weed removing vehicle to clean and uproot the unwanted grass and weeds, which is powered by a single cylinder 2-stroke petrol engine (100cc) which is manually operated. So, here we have designed and fabricated a vehicle which would uproot the weeds and unwanted crops from the field completely. The weed removing vehicle is capable of uprooting the weeds and unwanted crops from small plantations (tobacco, chilly, groundnut etc,) which if not removed would deteriorate the quality as well as the quantity of the main crop. The vehicles and machines which are presently available are very costly and unaffordable. Also, the vehicles and machines that are used cause damage to the main crop since their turning radius are more. This weed removing vehicle has a set of four wheels, two front wheels with drum brakes and two rear wheels attached to a dead axle where the front wheels are powered with a single cylinder 2-stroke 100cc petrol engine with the help of constant mesh gearbox and chain drive. The blade used to uproot the weeds is adjustable. The turning radius of this vehicle is also very small as compared to the machines available in the market. Also, this vehicle can be easily operated by the unskilled person without any difficulty. The speed of the vehicle can also be controlled easily since it has a constant mesh gearbox and a supporting pair of the chain drive. This vehicle will be very useful for the farmers who cannot afford the high price of currently available vehicles. Also, the maintenance cost is low for this vehicle.

Structural analysis of steering yoke of an automobile for withstanding torsio...eSAT Journals
Abstract
The steering columns in a steering system are one of the main devices of an automobile. It is a very important part to attain stability and
steady movement of the vehicle. It consists of two yokes, one on each shaft, connected by a cross-shaped intermediate member i.e.
spider. Motion transmission system of vehicles consist several components which sometimes encounter unfortunate failures. Some
common reasons for the failures may be manufacturing and design faults, maintenance faults, raw material faults, material processing
faults as well as the user originated faults. In this paper finite element analysis of the component is carried out to find the stress and
displacement of the final product. For modeling of the component, CATIA V5 R17 software is used. Preprocessing work like meshing
and analysis work is carried out in HYPERWORKS software. Using FEA analysis, we can identify the nature and characteristics of
stresses acting on the yoke and also evaluate the influence of the loads/ mass/ geometry/ boundary conditions over the yoke.

Design evaluation and optimization of steering yoke of an automobileeSAT Journals
Abstract The purpose of a steering system is to control the direction of the vehicle by operating the steering wheel of the steering system. The steering columns in a steering system are one of the main devices of an automobile. It is a very important part to attain stability and steady movement of the vehicle. The steering yoke consists of two forged-steel yokes or forks joined to the two shafts being coupled and situated at right angles to each other. A spider hinges these two yokes together. Since the arms of the spider are at right angles the spider arm rocks backwards and forward between four extreme positions. Motion transmission system of vehicles consist several components which sometimes encounter unfortunate failures. Some common reasons for the failures may be manufacturing, design faults, maintenance faults, raw material faults, material processing faults as well as the user originated faults. In this paper structural optimization of the steering yoke is carried out. For modeling of the component, CATIA V5 R17 software is used. It has been found that there are essentially in two stages of the design process that structural optimization can be applied. In the early stage of concept generation, topology optimization should be used to develop an efficient structure from the beginning. At this level an automatized variation of optimization parameters was proven useful to and the best feasible design possible. In the later stage, shape and size optimization should be used to fine-tune the structure realized from the topology optimization and carried out physical experimentation to validate the model.

Design and fabrication of prototype of multipurpose machine for sheet metal o...eSAT Journals
Abstract Sheet metal is basically a thin sheet of metal by using several operations. Nowadays it has become one of the most
important and fundamental forms in metalworking.[10] the advantage of sheet metal is that it can be bent into variety of
desired shapes. Lots of everyday objects are being manufactured using sheet metal. Sheet metal is mainly used for various
aerodynamically shaped car bodies, airplane wings, architecture and many other applications.[9] dent removing/rolling, cutting
and v-grooving are the most widely used operations in the fabrication industry. The conventional machines could only carry out
any of the above operations simultaneously. If these operations can be done on a single machine, it would not only make work quite
easy and less tedious but also increases profitability .moreover, conventional machines are often hand operated for small scale industry
applications. Also the time taken on these separate machines that is the overall lead time decreases by making them power
operated, resulting in lower cost and higher productivity. Our project is to encompass these operations onto a single machine
successfully. Keywords: Sheet Metal, Rolling, Cutting, V-Grooving

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

SIMULATION AND ANALYSIS OF LOW COST WEEDER Rajashekar M 1, V K Heblikar2, S.Mohan Kumar3 1Research Scholar, Mech. Engg. Department, SDMCET, Dharwad, Karnataka, INDIA 2Research Scholar & Head, Mech. Engg, Department, SDMCET, Dharwad, Karnataka, INDIA 3Principal, SDMCET, Dharwad, VTU, Belgaum, INDIA Abstract Weed management is one of the tedious operations in crop production. Because of labor costs, time and fully manual weeding is unfavorable. Hence effort is made to design and develop efficient Farm equipment to perform weeding without using electric power. This paper presents modeling, simulation, analysis, fabrication and testing of low cost three row weeder. The conception and key characteristics of simulation based design and the advantage of using it to design the driving mechanism of three row weeding equipment were discussed. The structure and mechanical parts of weeder were designed using CATIA with detail, including its three- dimensional modeling, assembly, interference checking, kinematics simulation, and two-dimensional engineering-drawing conversion etc. Later 3-D cad model is saved as (.stp) format and imported in ANSYS work bench environment and checked for Multibody dynamics simulation and Finite element analysis is done for safe design. The result shows that simulation based design technology can shorten the design & development period and reduce design cost.. The machine would be very useful for poor farmers. The cost of the commercial model of the equipment was estimated at Rs6500/-. The functional efficiency result of the manually operated weeder cum feeder on loamy soil was 81.4%, clay soil was 86.5% and sandy soil was 89.4% on of these soils. The overall machine field efficiency was 88.82% . Keywords: Simulation, CATIA design, MBD, FEA, ANSYS workbench, Farm equipment, Weeder.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------***----------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. INTRODUCTION Traditional farming practices have evolved over the years for various processes [6].Historically; agricultural development played a central role as a driver of rural poverty reduction. However, recent trends show in slowing down of agricultural productivity growth and the marginalization of poor farmers [9]. In India Rs. 4,800 million worth of crop is being lost every year due to weeds [5]. On average, the cost of weeding comes to Rs. 945 per ha, out of the total cost of cultivation of Rs. 3 000 per ha for agricultural crops [4]. Weed control is becoming an expensive operation in crop production. Majority of Indian farmers use hand-hoe for weeding which requires 40-60 labourers for weeding one hectare of land [3]. The effects of various shapes of blades of bullock-drawn blade harrow on depth of operation, weeding efficiency and crop yield was studied [2] . Six different blade shapes viz., convex, concave, 1200 V shape, 1600 V shape, serrated edge and tyne cum blade were compared with straight blade. Maximum draft of 450 mm wide blade harrow was 286 N. Power requirement of the blade harrows was 0.20-0.27 kW. Human energy predominantly used one other for almost all operation in Indian agriculture. Even in specialized operation as rice transplanting, horticultural plantation of crops, hoeing and weeding, picking of cotton, human power is still only source of energy.
Mechanical weeding is preferred to chemical weeding because weedicide application is generally expensive, hazardous and selective. Besides, mechanical weeding keeps the soil surface loose by producing soil mulch which results in better aeration and moisture conservation. Keeping in view of the above facts, an engine operated weeder was designed, developed and tested in field [8]. In general equipment/machinery fabrication industries, CAD technology has been very widely applied to various fields. But Farm machinery still remains an the primary stage, which based on hand work such as objects, models and drawings and samples to complete the whole process of Farm machinery body design method without using the modern CAD design software tools. At present, foreign farm machinery companies have started to use CAD modern technology, while problems such as not precise enough, long design cycle still exist in domestic agricultural machinery companies. 1.1 Simulation
Simulation is a new methodology of virtually testing a product design. Various approaches can be used, including Multibody Dynamics Simulation (MBD), Finite Element Analysis (FEA), or a combination of both. The design is modeled, often starting with Computer Aided Design (CAD) data, and then virtually tested to verify that the design will function as expected under defined operating conditions. The results from the simulation provide insight into the behavior of the design

and help engineers make design changes and improvements. The use of simulation in the design process can bring many benefits that will save both time, money, innovate faster and get your products to market sooner. Fig-1: CATIA Design Assembly 1.2 Finite Element Analysis The three important steps in ANSYS programming used for Finite Element Analysis are: i) Preprocessing ii) Solution iii) Post processing After preparing a solid geometry of weeder the important steps are meshing and applying loading and boundary conditions in the preprocessor so that simulation can be run to get a solution and generate results in the post-processor. A very fine mesh of the model gives good result. Hence a designer has to model it optimally i.e. placing fine mesh only at critical area; and coarse mesh at other. So that the run time is less and also the accuracy is not much affected. 2. MATERIALS AND METHODS 2.1 Base Frame A base frame was made by welding two 40 x 6 mm size MS C- iron sections 825mm long so as to have H section. The tool bar was connected to a frame made of two 25 x 6 mrn size MS angles. The frame was fitted to the weeding attachment at the rear. In front of the base plate for mounting the front wheel frame was made on 6mm mrn thick MS plate of 825 x 170 mrn dimensions. Fig -2: CATIA 3-D model of Base Frame 2.2 Driving Wheels Two 300mm diameter driving wheels were made using fibre molded rim. Stiffening rods of 15 mrn diameter and 99.48 mm long 4 in numbers were used as spokes on the central hub. The 50 mm long hub was made to suit the 15 mrn size round MS rod which is the central axle of the ground wheels. Fig -3: CATIA Drafting of Wheel 2.3 Front Wheel A 150mm diameter castor wheel was fitted at the front frame bracket of the machine to achieve economic weeding operation with reduced effort. .

2.4 Weeder Blade The weeder blade was assumed to be a simply supported beam subjected to a uniformly distributed load of 150 N/m. Based on it the thickness sweep of blade, was calculated to be 3mm The two different shapes weeder blades are designed according to need of different soil properties . a) Trapezoidal shape Blade b) V-shape Blade Fig -4: CATIA 3-D Drafting of Frame Weeder Blade 3. DESIGN METHODOLOGY The force required to uproot some weeds determined by using rope was by pulling through a spring balance and the force at the point of weed removal will be recorded. The machine was designed based on the principle of weed stem failure due to shear, and soil or root failure due to impact and abrasion. Fig- 5: CATIA 2-D Drafting
The design process can be viewed as an optimization process to find structures, mechanical systems, and structural parts that fulfill certain expectations towards their economy, functionality, and appearance using simulation based design process as shown in block diagram.

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION The equipment was evaluated in the field to determine; theoretical field capacity, effective field capacity, field efficiency, weeding efficiency and fuel consumption rate. Weeding efficiency was determined by removing manually the weeds in 1m x 1m area of the farm, the weeds was weighed and recorded. The process was repeated in five randomly selected locations on the farm. The average weight of the weeds in1m x 1m area was calculated for the types of soil. The average weight of the weeds in 1m x1m area after pass of the weeder through the farm was deducted from the actual weight of the weeds in 1m x 1m area. Thus, functional efficiency was determined from the relation: Functional efficiency =…….(4) Numbers of weed plants were counted at random in a square meter area at 3 different places before and after operating the machine. From the mean values, weeding efficiency of the machine was determined. 5.
