Chartered Engineer (CEng) UK Assistance

AI Thread Summary
To apply for Chartered Engineer (CEng) status in the UK while living in the U.S., it's essential to register with a relevant professional body like IMechE. A direct application is required, and applicants must demonstrate sufficient experience in all competency areas outlined in the UK-SPEC. Contacting the Engineering Council is advisable, especially for those overseas, as there may be additional requirements. Accreditation issues could arise depending on the origin of your degrees, but they can be navigated with proper qualifications and experience. Most institutions provide detailed guidance and support for international applicants.

I was conferred my Doctor of Engineering (EngD) in Nov. 2011. I am now planning to apply for Chartership in the UK; however I live in the U.S. and do not know any other CEng's in the UK to be my Proposer! Any advice?

If you live in the US why are you going for Chartered status with the UK Engineering Council?
 
My doctorate was from the UK. I still have amily there and I am applying for posts in the UK, EU and Arica.
 
Well the first step would be to register with the relevant professional body, IMechE or similar.
You'll need to do a direct application, and decide if you have enough experience in all the competency areas in the UK-SPEC.

Your best bet really is just contacting the Engineering Council, being overseas there may be some hoops to jump through.

I don't see why you would go to all the trouble though, depending where you got them and what your degrees are, it may be tricky due to accreditation issues.

Should not be a problem, providing your experience and qualifications are up to scratch. Most of the relevant institutions have all the necessary information on their websites, and representatives to help with exactly this stuff. Have you looked or enquired?
 

Thread 'Query on Isentropic relationships (such as PV^gamma = constant)'

Hi all, I have a question. So from the derivation of the Isentropic process relationship PV^gamma = constant, there is a step dW = PdV, which can only be said for quasi-equilibrium (or reversible) processes. As such I believe PV^gamma = constant (and the family of equations) should not be applicable to just adiabatic processes? Ie, it should be applicable only for adiabatic + reversible = isentropic processes? However, I've seen couple of online notes/books, and...

Thread 'Dry sump pump issue'

I have an engine that uses a dry sump oiling system. The oil collection pan has three AN fittings to use for scavenging. Two of the fittings are approximately on the same level, the third is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch higher than the other two. The system ran for years with no problem using a three stage pump (one pressure and two scavenge stages). The two scavenge stages were connected at times to any two of the three AN fittings on the tank. Recently I tried an upgrade to a four stage pump...
