Definition of Function in C A function definition, also known as function implementation shall include the following elements 1. function name; 2. function type; 3. list of parameters; 4. local variable declarations; 5. function statements; and 6. a return statement. All the six elements are grouped two parts, namely, ♦ function header (First three elements);and

Principles of Clamping Principles of clamping devices are used to hold the workpiece in the correct relative position in the jig or fixture. It should ensure that the workpiece is not displaced under the action of cutting forces. For efficient operation, firm clamping of the workpiece is a must. An inadequate clamping may always prove

Bend test is one of the commonly used destructive tests to determine the ductility and soundness (for the presence porosity, inclusion, penetration and other macro size internal weld discontinuities) of the weld joint produced using under one set of welding conditions. There are following two types of bend test: Free bend test Guided bend test

A control system in mechatronics refers to a group of physical component connected or related in such a manner as to command direct or regulate it selfe or another system. The physical components may be of electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, thermal or chemical in nature. Several key terms & elements of the control system are

Mechatronics engineering is a word originated in Japan in 1980s to denote the combination of technologies which go together to produce industrial robots. The word, mechatronics, is composed of “mecha” from mechanism and the “tronics” from electronics. In other words, technologies and developed products will be incorporating electronics more and more into mechanism, intimately and

Introduction User Defined Function (UDFS) We have mentioned earlier that one of the strengths of C language is C functions. They are easy to define and use. We have user defined function in every program that we have discussed so far. However, they have been primarily limited to the three functions, namely, main, printf, and

Introduction to Real Power Frequency Control Real or Active power frequency control is one of the important control actions to be performed during normal operation of the system to match the system generation with the continuously changing load, in order to maintain the constancy of system frequency to a tolerable limit of ±5%. A change

By using integral controller to the governor mechanism, the frequency control loop must be characterised by a sufficient degree of stability. Integral of the generators of the control are should divide the total load for optimum economy can be met only by optimal dispatch equation. Frequency error = 0 for a step load charge The

Introduction – Power System In general, each generating plans in any power system may have more than one generating unit. Each of the unit may have identical or different capacities. A number of power plants can be tied together to supply the system load by means of interconnection of the generating stations. Interconnected electric power

Need for Voltage and Frequency Regulation in Power System A power system is said to be well designed if it gives a good quality of reliable supply, which means that the voltage levels must be within reasonable limits. Practically, all the equipment on the power system are designed to operate satisfactorily within voltage regulation variations
