Most commonly asked Mechanical Interview Questions

1. What is the importance of the Thermodynamics in the field of Mechanical Engineering? All the mechanical engineering systems are studied with the help of thermodynamics. Hence it is very important for the mechanical engineers.

2. How many Laws of Thermodynamics are there? There are three laws of the thermodynamics.
First Law: Energy can be neither created nor destroyed. It can only change forms.In any process in an isolated system, the total energy remains the same.
Second Law: When two isolated systems in separate but nearby regions of space, each in thermodynamic equilibrium in itself, but not in equilibrium with each other at first, are at some time allowed to interact, breaking the isolation that separates the two systems, and they exchange matter or energy, they will eventually reach a mutual thermodynamic equilibrium. The sum of the entropy's of the initial, isolated systems is less than or equal to the entropy of the final exchanging systems. In the process of reaching a new thermodynamic equilibrium, entropy has increased, or at least has not decreased.
Third Law: As temperature approaches absolute zero, the entropy of a system approaches a minimum.

3. State Laws of conservation of energy? According to the laws of conservation of energy, “energy can neither be created nor be destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another.”

4. Is the boiler a closed system? Yes definitely the boiler is a closed system.

5. What is Carnot engine? It was being designed by Carnot and let me tell you that Carnot engine is an imaginary engine which follows the Carnot cycle and provides 100% efficiency.
6. Which formula forms a link between the Thermodynamics and Electro chemistry? Gibbs Helmholtz formula is the formula which forms the link between the thermodynamics and electromagnetism.
∆Hs/R = [∂ lnp /∂ (1/T)]x
where: x – mole fraction of CO2 in the liquid phase
p – CO2 partial pressure (kPa)
T – temperature (K)
R – universal gas constant
α – mole ratio in the liquid phase (mole CO2 per mole of amine)

7. Which is the hardest compound known? Diamond.

8. What is Hess Law? According to the Hess law the energy transfer is simply independent of the path being followed. If the reactant and the product of the whole process are the same then same amount of energy will be dissipated or absorbed.

9. Which has more efficiency: Diesel engine or Petrol engines? Off course Diesel engine has the better efficiency out of two.

Part -2 Most commonly asked Mechanical Interview Questions

Most commonly asked Mechanical Interview Questions 1. What is the difference between Critical Speed and Whirling Speed? Ans. In Solid mechanics, in the field of rotor dynamics, the critical speed is the theoretical angular velocity which excites the natural frequency of a rotating object, such as a shaft, propeller or gear. As the speed of rotation approaches the objects natural frequency, the object begins to resonate which dramatically increases system vibration. The resulting resonance occurs regardless of orientation.Whirling Speed is due to the unbalanced forces acting on a rotating shaft. 2. How a Diesel Engine Works as Generator? Ans. Diesel engine is a prime mover, for a generator, pump,and for vehicles etc. generator is connected to engine by shaft. mostly in thermal power plat ,there is an engine is used to drive generator to generate power. 3. Explain Second Law of Thermodynamics? Ans. The entropy of the universe increases over tim...

ULTRASONIC TEST

ULTRASONIC TEST INTRODUCTION This method is used to test a variety of both metallic & non metallic products such as welds, forgings, castings, sheets, etc. It has an advantage of detecting sub-surface discontinues with accesses to only one side of the specimen. In this method beams of high frequency sound waves are introduced into the material being tested. The sound waves travel through the material with some loss of energy & are reflected back . This is detected & analysed to detect the presence of flaws. This test employs ultrasonic waves. These waves are mechanical waves that consist of oscillations or vibrations. METHOD TRANSMISSION SYSTEM This method employs two Transducers, one for sending & other for receiving the pulses. These may be short or continuous & are transmitted through the material. The result gets displayed on the CRO connected. The settings of the CRO can be adjusted with respect to time & distance. Prior to testing couplant is used to prov...

LIQUID (DYE) PENETRATION TEST (D.P.T.)

LIQUID (DYE) PENETRATION TEST INTRODUCTION A liquid penetrant test is non-destructive type of testing to detect flaws that are open to the surface. e.g. cracks, seams, laps, lack of bond, porosity, cold shuts etc. can be effectively used not only in the inspection of ferrous metals but is especially useful for non-ferrous metal products and on non-porous, non-metallic materials such as ceramics, plastics and glass. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION The principle of liquid penetrant test is that the liquids used enter small openings such as cracks or porosities by capillary action. They are influenced by factors such as the condition of the surface of material and the interior of the discontinuity. For liquid to penetrate effectively, the surface of the material must be thoroughly cleaned of all material that would obstruct the entrance of the liquid into the defect. After cleaning, the liquid penetrant is applied evenly over the surface and allowed to remain long enough to permit penetration i...
