Thermal Laboratory - I

  • Internal Combustion engines are the heart of an Automobile application. So, the study of IC engines is necessary for a Mechanical engineer.
  • Thermal Engineering Laboratory-I trains the students with principles and operation of various Internal Combustion Engines used in Automobiles and steam generators and turbines for power generation application.
  • Analysis of Internal Combustion Engines by doing various testing to define the specifications.
  • Study and analysis of various liquid fuels properties for using as a fuel in Internal Combustion Engines.
  • Most of the Power Generation is happening through the following devices called Steam generators and Steam Turbine.
  • Study and analysis of various testing of steam turbine and steam generators are performed by students in thermal lab.
