What is your opinion Of the screw as a lifting device?

Even the best screws only have a mechanical advantage of twenty percent. Therefore, the screw is not a very efficient lifting device.


Does improving energy efficiency reduce longevity of a device?

That's hard to compare; improving energy efficiency often requires you to change a complete device for another device, for example, a light-bulb for a light-bulb that uses different technology. Whether the new device will live longer depends on the technology used.


What is definition of thermal efficiency of gas engine?

In general, efficiency is the ratio between the output of a device and the input, . For thermal efficiency, the input, , to the device is heat, or the heat-content of a fuel that is consumed. The desired output is mechanical work, , or heat, , or possibly both.From the first law of thermodynamics, the energy output can't exceed the input, so


Why the efficiency of induction motor is less than that of transformer?

Because, the losses of IM is more due to the contribution of friction losses at shaft bearings and wind age losses in rotor air gap, this reduces the efficiency of the equipment, Since transforms is a static equipment zero mechanical loss so efficiency of the equipments in high .
