It involves static as well dynamic bending stages. Analytical models for prediction of bending force during static as well as dynamic bending stage are available in the literature. In this paper bending forces required for static bending stage and dynamic bending stages have been compared using the analytical models. It is concluded that force required for dynamic bending is very less as compared to the bending force required during the static bending stage.

The process is completed by first bending the metal plates statically and then dynamic roller bending sequentially. It is required to have an analytical model to get maximum bending force, for optimum design of the machine, for static bending stage. Analytical models assuming various stress conditions are considered and these analytical models are compared considering various parameters and reported in this paper. It is concluded from the study that for higher bottom roller inclination, the shear stress affects greatly to the static bending force whereas for lower bottom roller inclination it can be neglected.

Bending mechanics involved in the process is complex and little work is done in this area. In the present paper an analytical model is developed to predict bending force which will be acting during 3-roller conical bending process. To verify the developed model, conical bending experiments are performed. Analytical results and experimental results were compared. Force predicted by analytical model is in close proximity of the experimental results. The error in the prediction is ±10%. Hence the model gives quite satisfactory results. Present model is also compared with the previously published bending force prediction model and it is found that the present model gives better results. The developed model can be used to estimate the bending force during 3-roller bending process and can be ...

The usage of parabolic trough collectors (PTC) for domestic applications is still quite limited; furthermore, commercial utilization of nanofluids in these applications is rare. The influence of MWCNT nanofluid as a heat transfer fluid on the efficiency of a locally developed parabolic trough collector was experimentally examined. The effect of surfactant on nanofluid stability was also investigated, and it was revealed that nanoparticles could be evenly suspended in base fluid for at least 10 days and less than one month using Triton X-100. Experiments were also conducted to determine the optimal quantity of Triton X-100 surfactant; it is possible to make nanoparticles stable for 28 days in base fluid with the ratio of Triton X-100 to MWCNT as 0.5:1. At 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 L/min flow rates, MWCNT/H2O is used at three-particle concentrations of 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3% by weight. The experiment is carried out under outdoor operating conditions. With 3 L/min at 0.2 wt.%, MWCNT nanofluid achieves a maximum thermal efficiency that is 22% greater than the water. The findings provide important information about the commercialization of a locally developed PTC.

The plates to be bent are cut for the required size and shape and then rolled between three cylindrical rollers. The plate is kept between one top roller and two bottom rollers. Than the top roller is lowered down and the plate gets bend. The rollers are rotated to get the roll bending of the plate. Final dimension of the cone frustum are achieved through setting appropriate machine setting parameters. An attempt is made in this paper to develop the analytical model for the prediction of the bending force during the stage of dynamic roll bending. During the roll bending of the plate there will be shear stresses along with the normal stresses. The analytical model has been developed considering these shear stresses. The model consists of various parameters like material parameters and geometrical parameters. Based on the analytical models derived, effects of some of the material parameters on dynamic bending force have been studied. In the development process complex mechanics involved in this process has been simplified so it will give insight of the process and will be helpful to the researchers and designers working in the area of metal forming, especially in roll bending process.

For this process it is important to evaluate the maximum force acting on the rollers during the rolling process for designing the rolling machine as well as for evaluating the coefficient of friction at roller-plate interface. It is observed that maximum force is acting on the roller during the static bending in roll bending process [Gandhi et al. 2008]. In the present study mathematical model for force prediction on the rollers have been developed. Effects of various material properties and geometrical parameters have been studied. It has been concluded that the proposed model can be effectively used to get the roller bending force for given geometrical parameters and material properties. It can also be used to get roller plate interface friction, if the experimental value of roll bending force is available.

Such parts are produced from metal plates using many manufacturing methods. 3-roller conical bending process is one such process. In this process first the metal plates in specified blank shapes are given static bending in the rollers. Then the rollers are driven using motors for bending of the blanks under dynamic condition. During bending reaction forces will be there on the rollers. Forces acting on the rollers during the process are transmitted to the machine frame at the roller supports. In the paper an analytical model is developed for the prediction of force during the stage of dynamic bending. The model consists of various parameters like material parameters and geometrical parameters. Experimentation is carried out and the developed model is validated with the experimental results. Effects of various material and geometrical parameters are studied in the present paper. The present work can give insight in the process and can be helpful to the designers as well as to the researchers working in the area of metal forming.

The microwave energy is widely used to process the materials in industries such as food processing, chemical, manufacturing etc. due to its unique heating characteristics. In microwave processing, energy is generated and absorbed inside the material during irradiation. The energy absorbed per unit volume of the material depends upon its size. The smaller size candidate materials have more effective surface area to absorb microwave energy than the bulk ones and usually yield lesser defects. This review paper summarizes the fundamentals of size-effect, microwave–materials interaction and input/output parameters in microwave material processing. Further, size-effect in microwave processing of different type of engineering materials (metal based, ceramic based and polymer based) have been discussed in terms of energy absorption and improvement in product attribu...
