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 time and moves towards a maximum value.

4. Compare Brayton Cycle and Otto Cycle?Ans. The heat addition and rejection processes in Otto cycle are of constant volume, whereas in Brayton cycle, they are of constant pressure.
-Otto cycle is the ideal cycle for spark ignition engines.
-Brayton cycle is the ideal cycle for gas power turbines.
5. What is the purpose of Scrapper Ring?Ans. scrap the excess lube oil from the cylinder walls. there by preventing oil from entering combustion zone.
6. What is DTSI Technology?Ans. DTSI stands for Digital Twin Spark Plug Ignition. The vehicles with DTSI Technology use 2 spark plugs which are controlled by digital circuit. It results in efficient combustion of air fuel mixture.
Digital - Since the spark generation will be initiated by a microchip.
Twin - Since two spark plugs will be used.
Spark ignition - Since the ignition will be done via a spark.

7. How to Find, Ductile-Brittle Transition Temperature in Metals?Ans. The point at which the fracture energy passes below a pre-determined point for a standard Impact tests. DBTT is important since, once a material is cooled below the DBTT, it has a much greater tendency to shatter on impact instead of bending or deforming.
8. What is the importance of Thermodynamics?Ans. All the mechanical engineering systems are studied with the help of thermodynamics. Hence it is very important for the mechanical engineers.

9. What is the difference between P11 and P12 Pipes?Ans. P11 the chromium molybdenum composition that is 1% ofchromium and 1/4% of molybdenum
P12 the chromium molybdenum composition that is 1% ofchromium and 2% of molybdenum
10. State difference between Anti Friction Bearing and Journal Bearing?
Ans. Generally, journal bearings have higher friction force, consume higher energy and release more heat, but they have larger contact surface, so normally used in low speed high load applications. In anti friction bearings friction is less. One object just rolls over each other.

Part -5 Most commonly asked Mechanical Interview Questions

Most commonly asked Mechanical Interview Questions with answer 1. Why the Centrifugal Pump is called High Discharge pump? Ans. Centrifugal pump is a kinetic device. The centrifugal pump uses the centrifugal force to push out the fluid. So the liquid entering the pump receives kinetic energy from the rotating impeller. The centrifugal action of the impeller accelerates the liquid to a high velocity, transferring mechanical (rotational) energy to the liquid. So it discharges the liquid in high rate. It is given in the following formulae: Centrifugal force F= (M*V2)/R. Where, M-Mass V-Velocity R-Radius 2. How Cavitation can be eliminated by Pump? Ans. Cavitation means bubbles are forming in the liquid. To avoid Cavitation, we have to increase the Pump size to One or Two Inch To increase the pressure of the Suction Head  Decrease the Pump Speed. 3. Why Cavitation will occur in Centrifugal Pump and not in Displacement Pump? Ans. The form...

'NICK' BREAK (BEND) TEST

'NICK' BREAK (BEND) TEST Object :  As for fillet weld fracture, used on butt welds. Method: The specimen is cut transversely to the weld, and a saw cut is applied along the center of the weld face. The best place for the cut is at a start I stop. The specimen is fractured by bending or by hammer blows. The nick bend test will find internal defects. Reporting Results: Thickness of material.  Width of specimen.  Location of fracture.  Appearance of joint after fracture.

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 ...
