Gland is used for the prevent leakage of oil from the gland box which is made up of copper or brass and gland box function is to support the glands which are made up of cast iron.This is called oil gland.

steam gland is used for prevent the leakage of steam which exhausts air and which helps build up the vaccum in condenser is called steam gland.

Write down a program with Passing object to friend function?

Here's a simple example of a C++ program that demonstrates passing an object to a friend function: #include <iostream> using namespace std; class Box { private: int length; public: Box(int len) : length(len) {} friend void printLength(Box b); // Friend function declaration }; void printLength(Box b) { // Friend function definition cout << "Length of box: " << b.length << endl; } int main() { Box box(10); printLength(box); // Passing object to friend function return 0; } In this program, the printLength function is declared as a friend of the Box class, allowing it to access the private member length.

What is the purpose of a gland in electrical installation?

Glands in the electrical trade are used to make a seal between two electrical components. For an example; a cable coming into a weather proof junction box requires a sealing gland connector to keep the integrity of the junction box's weather proof rating where the cable enters into the box. Gland also used to ensure that the metallic armor is in contact with the cabinet on which it gets fitted. But these days where plastic boxes and plastic glands are being common this practice is rarely applied nowadays.(In India) Gland ensures that there is no unnecessary pressure, stress on the cable conductor, but firmly holding it on to while providing a reliable entry of the cable into the box. In North America any cable holding device that is not water proof is called a cable connector.


Can a train run on steam?

Steam trains were once widespread, and changed the world. A steam engine is an external combustion engine, meaning that the fuel burns outside the engine. In modern internal combustion engines the petrol or diesel burns inside the engine, and the gases produced expand and push the cylinders, and this motion eventually turns the wheels. In the steam engine the fuel burns in an external fire box. The heat boils the water to make steam, which pushes the cylinders. So it depends exactly what you mean by 'run'. Certainly there were and are steam trains, but the steam doesn't provide the energy to make it go, the fuel does.

What are types of steam turbine gland?

Steam turbine glands are typically categorized into two main types: stuffing box glands and mechanical seal glands. Stuffing box glands use packing materials to seal the steam and prevent leakage, while mechanical seal glands employ a rotating seal to achieve a tighter, more reliable seal. Each type has its advantages and is chosen based on factors like operating conditions, maintenance requirements, and leakage control. Additionally, gland sealing systems can be further optimized with the use of auxiliary systems like gland steam systems to enhance sealing performance.

What is turbine rated speed and What is maximum speed rise of steam turbine?

Turbine rated speed varies mainaly on the factors of Generating frequency and means of coupling to generator (viz trough a gear box or directly coupled and no.poles in generator). For exmple a 50hz generting frequency and a bi-pole genarator the turbine speed is 3000RPM. The allowed speed rise also depends on turbine design and generator operational range. Generaly the speed rise is restricted to Maximum of 10% of the rated speed.
