What does "Production" term implies in an organization.

-

 Production function is that part of an organization, which is concerned with the transformation of a range of inputs into the required outputs having the requisite quality level.

Production is defined as " the step by step conversion of one from of material into another from through chemical or mechanical process to create or enhance the utility of the product to the user" . Thus production is a value addition process. At each stage of processing there will be value addition.

Edwood Buffa defines production as a process by which goods and services are created. Some examples of production are manufacturing custom made products like boilers with a specific capacity, constructing flats, some structural fabrication works for selected customers, etc and manufacturing standardized products like car, bus, motor cycle, radio, television, etc.

What are the types of the gear pumps? With neat sketch discuss construction working of any type of gear pump.

 There are four types of gear pump External Gear Pump Internal Gear Pump Screw Pump Lobe Pump The basic principle of external gear pump is that a pair of gears being driven by an external means. The gear motion generates suction at inlet by creating a partial vacuum which causes fluid to be drawn into the pump housing. The fluid is drawn through the pump and is displaced as the teeth mesh on the outlet side. Construction: External gear pump have two mating gear that are turned in a closely fitted casing. Each gear is mounted on a shaft which is supported on bearing in the end covers. In this drive shaft is coupled to the prime mover. Two ports inlet and outlet are provided directly on the opposite side of the mesh point of the gears. The larger and straight ports are preferred for better performance. The driving shaft is usually connected to the upper gear of the pump. The rotation of the driver gear cause the follower gear to turn. Operation: When the pump starts rotating the rota...

The larger and straight ports are preferred for better performance. The driving shaft is usually connected to the upper gear of the pump. The rotation of the driver gear causes the follower gear to turn. When the pump starts rotating, the rotation of the gear forces air out of the casing and into the discharge pipe. This removal of air from the pump casing...

With neat sketches describe the working principle of Hermetically Sealed Compressor.

 A hermetic or sealed compressor is one in which both compressor and motor are confined in a single outer welded steel shell. The motor and compressor are directly coupled on the same shaft, with the motor inside the refrigeration circuit. The compressor does exactly as its name says: it compresses the refrigerant. The compressor receives low pressure gas from the evaporator and converts it to  high pressure gas. As mentioned earlier, as the gas is compressed, the temperature rises. The hot refrigerant gas then flows to the condenser. A, refrigerator does not cool items by lowering their original temperatures; instead, an evaporating gas called a refrigerant draws heat away, leaving the surrounding area much colder. Refrigerators and air conditioners both  work on the principle of cooling through evaporation. Sealed or hermetic type, however has no need for the shaft seal. These are usually made in capacities from 0.4 kW to 110 kW. Sealed compressor for R-12 and for 2 are...
