Fluid Motion Control

A fluid is a substance that does not permanently resist distortion. An attempt to change the shape of a mass of fluid results in layers of fluid sliding over one another until a new shape is attained. The branch of engineering that deals with the behavior of fluids (liquids, gases, vapors) is called fluid mechanics. It has several sub disciplines, including aerodynamics and hydrodynamics.

Different types of fluids 

Incompressible fluid: Its density changes only slightly with moderate changes in temperature and pressure. Liquids are generally considered as incompressible.

Compressible fluid: If the changes in density are significant, the fluid is said to be compressible.

Ideal fluid: An incompressible fluid having no viscosity is known as an ideal fluid. It is only an imaginary fluid.

Real fluid: Fluid which possesses viscosity is known as real fluid. All the fluid in practical are real fluids.

Newtonian fluid: Real fluid, in which shear stress is directly proportional to the rate of shear strain or velocity gradient, is known as Newtonian fluid.

Non Newtonian fluid: A real fluid, in which shear stress is not directly proportional to the rate of shear strain or velocity gradient, is known as Non Newtonian fluid.

Ideal plastic fluid: A fluid in which shear stress is directly proportional to the rate of shear strain or velocity gradient, is known as ideal plastic fluid.

Sizing and Selecting the proper Metering Pump

In process application, large amounts of chemicals are used during daily operations and the volumes of chemicals are large and very precise, with exact amounts delivered according to strict injection schedules. Thus the pressures - from very high to very low – for injecting the chemicals should be governed precisely. Metering pumps have—whether mechanically, hydraulically or electronically actuated—raised to the fore as a technology of first choice for the injection of chemicals in processing and agricultural applications, but within the realm of metering pumps there are many different styles and modes of operation. The article explains the different metering-pump technologies and illustrates how the user should select the proper size and style depending on the injection application for which the pump will be tasked.

Secure & Seamless Communication With Powerlink & OPC UA

An OPC UA companion specification is now available for POWERLINK according to a joint announcement by the OPC Foundation and the Ethernet POWERLINK Standardization Group (EPSG). The companion specification describes how payload data is exchanged between POWERLINK and any OPC UA platform. The result is integrated communication from the sensor to the cloud – without any interfaces whatsoever.​​​​​​​
