TRANSPORT GALLERY


FOUR STROKE DIESEL ENGINE


The Transport Gallery comprises historical developments in transport and related technology. Be it Rail, Road, Air or Water Transport - every exhibit is a working model.


Rail : From Richard Trevithick's engine to present day diesel engine, the working principle is clearly demonstrated.


im1

Dr.Rudolf Diesel obtained his patent on the principle of the diesel in 1893. Fuel is injected into the heated air for ignition which creates a pressure to send the piston down ward (Power stroke).


GEORGE STEPHENSON'S ENGINE


im1

FUEL SYSTEM OF DIESEL ENGINE


im1

The fuel from the tank is pumped into injection pump through fuel feed pump operated by cam shaft. This fuel injection pump supplies fuel endery extremely high pressure equal quantity of fuel at equal intervals according to the engine firing order.


HINDUSTAN TRAINER AIRCRAFT


im1

It is a single engine, low wing monoplane a trained aircraft.


Road:The inside story of gears, axles working of diesel and petrol engines (two stroke & four stroke) is on show. The visitor can operate the engine to his/her complete satisfaction.


Air: A working model of Wright Brother's Flyer model. HT-2 air frame, fuel drop tank and different types of aero engines can be observed.


Water: A variety of sea going vessels - trading vesels along with actual scale models of Sagar Bhushan, Visvaparajit, Prem Lok and Dredger are on display. An interesting model of a submarine and a working model of a typical harbour have also been included.


HARBOUR MODEL


im1

The sequential operation in handling cargo in a typical Harbour is displayed.


CUT SECTIONED CHASSIS OF A BUS


im1

All the essential parts of transmission such as steering, front axle., cluch, gear box propeller shaft and chart differential, and rear axle are shown as cut sectioned working model.
