CONSTRUCTION OF SHEEL AND TUBE HEAT EXCHANGER

ABSTRACT The aim of this project was to construct shell and tube heat exchanger with fixed boundless. A heat exchanger that would cool 5 x 5 x 10 – 3 kg/s of steam at a calculated heat load of 152 – 395/S was fabricated. The steam is to reach the heat exchanger from a distillation column at a temperature of 300k. The specification of  the layout as well as the detailed mechanical design were assumed and also calculated. It is established that a horizontal heat exchanger with c...

CONSTRUCTION OF PROPELLER AGITATOR

ABSTRACT Propeller agitator is a specialized of various types of substances.  It consists of three basic components which are the shaft, blade and the vessel. In the construction, mild steel was chosen due to it’s inherent properties.  After the procurement, the following constructional operations were carried out which included marking out, center punching folding, welding, filling operation, assembling, and painting to beautify the equipment and for other purposes.  The shapes an...

CONSTRUCTION OF PACKED DISTILLATION COLUMN

ABSTRACT This is an abstract on the construction of a packed distillation column. A packed distillation column is used in the separating process distillation that is the separation of two miscible liquids.  It was constructed by marking out the dimension of the column, condenser, pot, using steel rule scriber, oxyacetylene flame was used for cutting after which the work piece were center punched and drilled using the drilling machine. At last they were folded, shaped, welded tested, finishe...

CONSTRUCTION OF INDUSTRIAL WHEEL BARROW

ABSTRACT Wheelbarrow is a simple machine, which belong to the second-class lever. This is because the load or resistance is placed between the effort and the fulcrum. It is used in many areas of work to convey loads that are too heavy or bulky to be carried by hand. Wheelbarrow can be used as farm equipment, industrial equipment among others. However, the efficiency of the wheelbarrow depends on the materials used for the construction. A wrong choice of these materials can reduce the efficie...

CONSTRUCTION OF INDUSTRIAL BARROW

ABSTRACT The constructional project involved the construction of an industrial barrow of standard size was constructed. The process used went across various Engineering practice. These involved the procurement of galvanized steel of 0.00mm to 300mm thickness. Some galvanized steel rods and pipes were also used for the construction.  The Engineering drawing was done followed by the following operation: Marking out, cutting, bending and folding. Finally, the construction of an industrial barr...

CONSTRUCTION OF FLOW NOZZLE

ABSTRACT The project title “fabrication of flow nozzle†was done by a selected group of Engineering Students and the practiced objective (aim) of the project was centered on constructing a nozzle that is capable of transporting fluid from one to the other, to determine the charge in velocity of the moving fluid across two given areas of the nozzle and to be able to measure the quantity of fluid that will flow through the nozzle for a given period of time. However, the construction ...

CONSTRUCTION OF BOOK SHELVE

ABSTRACT         A book shelve is a structure which here series of compartments for the preservation of books, valuable or useful materials, which are made up of metal, wood or plastic materials of construction. (Engineering materials).      The book shelve was constructed in the institute. (I.M.T Enugu).       However, before the construction, two standard metal sheets of length 96 inches and height 48 inches respectively, where dimension and divided into these required dimensions...

CONSTRUCTION OF A STANDARD DRAWING DESK

ABSTRACT This project is a fabrication of a standard drawing writing desk using the cheapest, effective and most readily available materials. Method of maintenance and services were also taken into consideration. The functional aspect of the equipment was also given adequate consideration in the project work. Also take into consideration the reliability, portability and general values, appearance of the equipment. A material used for the construction was of best quality, which have excellent...

REPAIR AND REHABILITATION OF A FAULTY AIR CONDITIONER

ABSTRACT The need for an authentic and reliable report relating to the repairs and rehabilitation of a faulty air-conditioner is inevitable. Many homes and offices uses the air-conditioner to cool he temperature in their respective homes.  So the maintenance of the air-conditioner should be a top priority of every individual in order to avoid huge expenditure in the repairs of the system.  It’s for this reason that this report is written for the benefit of those whom are privileged t...

Design And Construction Of A Spin Dryer

ABSTRACT This work is aimed at designing and fabricating a spin dryer which can be used in drying spent grains after brewing. This will no doubt save considerable human labours and time wastage involved in conventional method of drying the spent grains by spreading on the ground. It also saves as a means of employments for our teaming population. This machine was designed after due consideration of its ease of production, maintenance and servicing. Chapter one gives account of the introductor...

DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF A PILOT PRODUCTION PLANT FOR PAINTS (EMULSION AND TEXCOAT)

ABSTRACT The concept of this project is to actualize a practical way of paint production using a locally design mixing machine which is design to meet a low cost and high standard paint. The project cut across all forms of engineering, such as mechanical machine design of a simple industrial mixer, which is driven by an electrically made device, a 3 HP electric motor, chemically reacting reagents such as water, calcium carbonate, etc to produce the desired product which is aim to be used as ...

CONSTRUCTION OF AN ELECTRICAL STOVE WITH THREE-OVEN APARTMENT

ABSTRACT This project is concern about the construction of an electrical stove with three oven apartment is described in his project.  It was carried out in order to solve the problem often encounter in cooking and drying and at the same time finding an alternative means to replace the use of  kerosene and gas for cooking and drying which are often not available due to scarcity of these products, however, the project students have employed the use of electricity which is rending available....

DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF A DUST EXTRACTOR

ABSTRACT Man’s impact on global environment system especially in the area of dust extraction is now at a scale where it is disrupting.  These dust extractors varies in major ways. The environmental degradation is, in turn contributing to health threat in this part of the globe.  Unfortunately most factories, workshops which suppose to posses these machines for dust extractions a re not having them thereby making dust a very dangerous threat to man.   Due to this ugly development it,...
