The discussion revolves around the challenges of identifying significant problems related to industrial strainers for a final year mechanical engineering project. Participants explore potential issues, existing solutions, and avenues for further investigation within the field of strainers.
Participants do not reach a consensus on the existence of significant problems within the field of strainers. Some suggest that there are areas for improvement, while others express doubt about the viability of certain issues as project topics.
Participants acknowledge the presence of existing solutions, such as self-cleaning strainers, which may limit the scope of potential problems to explore. There is also a suggestion to seek guidance from a professor or manufacturer for further clarification.
This discussion may be useful for mechanical engineering students seeking project ideas related to industrial strainers, as well as professionals interested in the challenges and innovations in strainer technology.
Ritz_physics said:I really need huge help on this. I have been suggested analyzing industrial stariners as a final year mechanical engg. project. However my project would require finding out existing problem/s in the element under analyses and I am not able to find any single problem (i.e. huge enough for a project) that i can give a solution to as an engineer. So please help.
Bobbywhy said:Ritz_physics, you may have underestimated the field that was suggested for your analysis project. When I used these search terms in Google: "automatic strainer self cleaning" I found many different types of filters and strainers in many different applications. There must be areas for improved systems and for innovative solutions yet to be discovered. Furthermore, it's clear there is a large market for these products because there are so many large corporations designing, manufacturing, and selling them. Perhaps you could speak with your professor who suggested the analysis and ask for some clarification and or guidance for your project.
