Title: An Improved Process and Apparatus for Separating Materials by Centrifugal Force.
Inventor: RICHARDSON WILLIAM WHITEHEAD
Filed: 1913-11-14
Granted: 1914-07-09
Abstract: 26,142. Richardson, W. W. Nov. 14. Separators for granular and pulverulent bodies. - Relates to a separator for pulverized ores, s l i m e s, mica, kaolin, &c. in which the material to' be treated and water are fed into s e p a r a t e concentric annular compartments of a rotary, centrifugal machine. T h e apparatus comprises inverted cup-shaped vessels A, B concentrically arranged on the driving-shaft C, the outer vessel B having converging sides b, and the inner vessel A diverging sides a which terminate within a short distance of the edge b<1> of the outer vessel B. The casing D has an inner cylindrical wall c<1> projecting into the inner vessel and forming an annular chamber E. Water is fed from an inlet F into the space between the two vessels A, B, and issues in a continuous flow from the annular opening between the lips of the vessels into the chamber E. The material is fed through a pipe G on to a platform H spaced from the end of the vessel A by vanes h, and is forced by centrifugal action on to the inside of the vessel A, over which it spreads. As the material leaves the vessel and enters the stream of water, the lighter particles are carried away by the water, while the heavy particles pass through the stream and are caught upon the depending lip b<1> of the inclined wall of the vessel B, up which they are forced, and collect in the upper part of the vessel. The vessels are submerged, or partly submerged, in the water, which, travelling slower than the vessel A, acts' as a scour on the descending layer of the material to sort out the lighterparticles and hold them in suspension. Fixed vanes may be provided in the chamber E, thus further interfering with the rotation of the water and increasing the effect of this scouring-action, The vanes h separating the platform H from the top of the vessel A are removable and can be replaced by others of different thickness, so that the distance between the lips a<1>, b<1> of the vessels can be adjusted. In a modified form, the outer vessel B has parallel sides, and the lower edge is turned in to provide the space for the collection of the heavy particles.

Abstract: Learning is a two step process. So, as much as theoretical knowledge is important, knowledge about the practical implementation is also emphasized upon. And a very good example of this can be seen in the curriculum of the bachelor's degree program of our education system. Every student has to do at least one project either from their respective institutions or in collaboration with some external organization. Also, every student is assigned an internal project guide who supervises the project. A project is not a one man job. So, every project consists of at least two members, supervised by the same internal guide. Now, if these students do their project from an external organization, then balancing between the institution and the organization becomes hectic. This is where Project Feedback Management System comes into play. We have devised an automated web based application to facilitate the communication and feedback about the project between the students, and their respective internal guides. Our system has different functionalities which facilitates the interaction between the students and their internal guides. It provides different functionalities based on the type of user logged in. If the logged user is an internal guide, functionalities such as logging of a feedback, reviewing of a particular task, etc. At the same time if the logged user is a student, the functionalities are restricted to just viewing the task and clarifying their doubts.
