Generally oil safety switches sense the oil pressure. If there is no preset pressure then the oil safety switch acts (to switch off or cut off the device) For an equipment that needs to be protected against the low oil pressure, such switches are used. when the equipment is standstill (or not running) then the oil pressure is also zero. When the equipment starts running, during the initial few seconds the oil pressure builds up from zero to required pressure. The timer is required not to cut off the equipment control in this initial few seconds. Control system waits for few seconds allowing the pressure to build up and after the preset time, if the pressure does not build up then it switches off the equipment since running the equipment with oil pressure is not good for the equipment.

EFFECT of OIL on ASPHALT?

Depends on type and quantity of oil, but it tends to dissolve the bitumen binder and so destroy the asphalt.


What is cement slurry and types?

Cement slurry is a mixture of cement, water, and sometimes additives that is used in construction and oil well cementing to create a fluid that can be easily pumped and set to form a solid mass. The primary types of cement slurry include neat cement slurry, which consists of just cement and water, and various modified slurries that incorporate additives for specific properties, such as retarders, accelerators, or additives to enhance fluid loss control and improve bonding. Additionally, there are lightweight slurries, which use lightweight aggregates or additives to reduce density, and high-performance slurries designed for specialized applications in extreme conditions.


What is the difference between cold mix asphalt and cutback asphalt?

Cold Mix Asphalt is a mixture of aggregate and asphalt. Cutback asphalt is a liquid asphalt. Cold Mix Asphalt is a mixture of Aggregate and Asphalt. The Asphalt is usually am emulsion asphalt or a cutback asphalt. An emulsion asphalt is asphalt cement blended with water. Cutback asphalt is asphalt cement blended with a fuel oil, kerosene, or a naptha. The water, fuel oil, kerosene or Naphta evaporates and leaves the asphalt.


What are the cement product name?

Cement products include a variety of types such as Portland cement, which is the most common used in construction, and blended cements like fly ash or slag cement that enhance specific properties. Other products include masonry cement, which is used for mortar, and oil well cement, designed for use in oil drilling. Additionally, specialty cements like rapid-setting cement and white cement cater to specific applications in construction and aesthetic purposes.


What are the applications of fluid mechanics in civil engineering?

as a civil engineer we should construct dams and pipelines across countries for transportation of oil,petrol,gases,etc.in these cases we should know the behaviour of fluids so that structures could be designed in such possible manner for ease of flow of fluids.fluid mechanics serves this purpose.

What is the function of the current sensing relay in an oil safety control scheme?

The electrical control panel for a refrigeration unit using single or three phase power. The control portion has an oil pressure safety switch, defrost timer, temperature controls and perhaps a refrigerant pressure control in conjunction with the normal internal overload circuit breakers for the compressor. After operation of the refrigeration unit for a period of time, a defrost control device cuts off the compressor and turns on the electric defrost heaters. As the evaporator coils are defrosted, defrost thermostats open the defrost heater supply circuits. When the current sensing relay senses that all the defrost heaters have been shut off via the defrost thermostats, a time delay relay will return the refrigeration unit to the normal refrigeration cycle. The same current sensing relay will prevent false triggering by the oil pressure safety switch if the compressor's internal overload circuit breaker opens

What are the two general types of oil control rings?

The two general types of oil control rings are: 1) standard (single piece) oil control rings, which consist of a single ring that scrapes excess oil from the cylinder walls, and 2) three-piece oil control rings, which include two narrow rails and an expander that help regulate oil consumption by controlling the flow of oil on the cylinder walls.
