In the case forced vibration of a mass spring system without damping the mass spring system is acted by a periodic oscillation force and the damping is absent. Unbalanced rotating machinery such as compressor piston produces such type of motion. This is shown in fig.1 (a). For this case the equation of motion can be written as: ———-(1) The solution of equation includes the solution for free vibration and solution satisfying the right hand side. Concept of rotating vector is used to solve the equation (1). s per the vector…

One of the most common circuits in the market is the water level indicator. But most of these circuits fault corrosion of metal electrodes due to electrolytic reaction. This fault can be minimized effectively by using alternating current instead of direct current supply. Here we design and verify a circuit called electrolysis proof water level indicator using a COMOS IC which has profitably exploited the normally unused property of CMOS devices. Other Water level indicators and controller circuits posted on bestengineeringprojects.com Ultrasonic Water Level Meter Water Level Indicator Circuit using…
