During firing, the wear leads to reduced performance and availability. Wear in gun barrels has different types of erosion mechanisms, in particular chemical-, thermal- and mechanical erosion. This takes place in the internal ballistic process when the projectile is fired from the gun barrel and it will affect the external ballistic parameters. Therefore, an equipment is needed to monitor and measure the wear inside different calibre gun barrels. Wear in gun barrels takes place under extreme conditions during firing due to high gas pressures and high temperatures arise as propellant burns. The present thesis aims to develop a type of measuring equipment that should be able to measure and monitor wear inside gun barrels between the diameter ranges of A-C mm. In this master thesis, the product development process has been adapted in order to reach the following goal which is to accomplish a technical solution for the problem associated with wear in gun barrels. The product development process is a systematical approach of developing new products. The different steps that have been evaluated are the product specification, generation of concepts, selection of concepts and layout- and detail design. Before these steps where performed, a project plan was done in order to organize the project. This was then followed by a literature review to obtain information about the problems in the project and to find inspiration from similar applications. The results of the product development process led to a concept of a moveable measure-head which uses a crawler to move inside the gun barrel and adapters to be able to use inside different calibre gun barrels. Then a rotating 3D-laser scanner to measure the change in diameter of the bore. A laser distance sensor and a receiver in order to measure the straightness and to be able to know the position of the moving measure-head in the gun barrel. At last, a wireless camera to monitor the wear inside the gun barrel. The selected concept has been developed and potential solutions for the problem have been described and formed. For the next phase of the project, the concept needs to be developed into a complete model. The next phase of the project is the prototype testing phase.

Here are two common problems you’ll see in the field: Did You Know? ■ Using only one gasket or none at all — it is important to always Putting a new impeller on use two gaskets. They work against one another for easier worn threads results in removal. When you use one, the impeller will want to overtighten on the shaft, so it makes it more difficult to get off. Two gaskets rapid failure and damage slide against one another, making it easier to break loose. If you to other wet-end parts. don’t use any gasket at all, it all galls together. ■ Applying anti-seize to the hub face — People like to use anti-seize on the threads, faces of the shaft sleeve, the impeller, and the gaskets. That actually causes it to overtighten: It allows the parts to become more slippery and it will overtighten on the shaft. A good rule of thumb is if you want to use anti-seize on the threads of the shaft and the impeller, keep the axial faces of the shaft sleeves, the gaskets, and the impeller hub dry. If you get anti-seize on those areas, the impeller will tighten even further on the shaft.

Founded in 1906 by innovative young engineer, Frank Moore, Moore & Wright has been designing, manufacturing and supplying precision measuring equipment to global industry for over 100 years. With roots fixed firmly in Sheffield, England, the company began by manufacturing a range of calipers, screwdrivers, punches and other engineer’s tools. Following investment from Mrs Wright, a shrewd Sheffield businesswoman, Frank was able to expand the business and further develop his innovative designs. By the mid-nineteen twenties, thanks to the company’s enviable reputation, Moore & Wright was approached by the UK Government to consider manufacturing a range of quality micrometers. It was in this field that Moore & Wright’s status as UK agent for the Swiss Avia range of products and subsequent acquisition of the Avia brand and manufacturing rights, proved invaluable.

  • SPRING DESIGN AWARDS Presented by HOWARD R
    ROARING INTO our 20TH ANNIVERSARY FRED AND HARRIET COX SPRING DESIGN AWARDS presented by HOWARD R. HUGHES COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING MAY 8TH 2020 1 Fred and Harriet Cox SENIOR DESIGN EXPERIENCE Part of every UNLV engineering student’s academic experience, the Senior Design project stimulates engineering innovation and entrepreneurship. Each student in their senior year chooses, plans, designs and prototypes a product in this required element of the curriculum. Working in teams, the senior design project encourages students to use everything they learned in their academic program to create a practical, real world solution to an engineering challenge. BEYOND THE CLASSROOM Because of the requirement to work in teams, students also build good communication skills, presentation skills, and even business writing skills. They also have to source and purchase the materials for the prototypes themselves, giving them real-world budgeting experience. REWARD AND RECOGNITION A team of industry judges choose winners in each category based on innovation, commercial potential, presentation quality and sustainability. A cash first prize and second prize are given in each discipline, as well as a grand prize. Through the generosity of patrons Fred and Harriet Cox as well as award sponsors, the College of Engineering reimburses teams for the costs associated with the creation of their prototype. This ensures that teams are not working under unfair financial constraints, but have the resources they need to excel. TAKING IT FURTHER Senior Design teams are offered the opportunity to partner with MBA students from the Lee Business School to create a business plan as part of the MBA curriculum.
