Blades plc is a UK manufacturer of roller blades. Ben Holt, the finance director of Blades plc, has decided to counteract the decreasing demand for “Speedos” roller blades by exporting this product to Thailand. Furthermore, due to the low cost of rubber and plastic in Southeast Asia, Holt has decided to import some of the components needed to manufacture “Speedos” from Thailand. Holt feels that importing rubber and plastic components from Thailand will provide Blades with a cost advantage (the components

Study of Manufacturing of Turbine Blades A Summer Internship Project Report Abstract Steam Turbine is a prime mover which converts the energy associated with the steam into mechanical energy which results in the rotation of the turbine rotor. It is nearly an ideal working device among all heat engines and prime movers and widely used in Power plants and in all industries to generate power because of its greater thermal efficiency and higher power-to-weight ratio. Presently, 80% of all electricity

that the blade broke within the first few minutes. The blade speed started out with 9703 RPM and went down to as low as 6000RPM when it had 6 light bulbs on. The turbine successfully completed all the objectives with ease. The only thing that it could’ve done better in was the stiffness test because it displaced more weight than it needed to.

alloy or a combination of composites and wood. The leading edge is sometimes reinforced with nickel for protection against rain, sand and small stones. They come in two, three or more blades depending of the application and engine. Some high-end turboprop aircraft even have six blades to absorb the power. But, more blades means more weight and more propeller torque (drag) and the engine must be able to handle this. Power conversion The function of the propeller is to convert brake horse power from

higher level of inflation in Thailand affect Blades(assume U.S. inflation remains constant)? ANSWER: A high level of inflation in Thailand relative to the United States could affect Blades favorably. Generally, if a country’s inflation rate increases relative to the countries with which it trades, consumers and corporations within the country will most likely purchase more goods overseas, as local goods become more expensive. Consequently, Blades’ sales to Thailand may increase. 2. How could
