Today we will discuss the axial, radial and tangential direction.
What is that?There is a big problem to understand what is axial, radial & tangential. Sometimes we can't identify them. Sometimes we listen to axial flow, radial flow or tangential flow but can't understand. Let's understand with an example, Consider we have a cylinder, In this cylinder, we will observe where is axial, radial & tangential. If any force is applied like that so that is applied on the radial flow direction. If a force is applied on the surface like this or like that so that is applied on the tangential direction. This is radial and that is tangential. If any force is applied like this, so this is called axial. You can learn radial in a simple way that radial force is applied along the radius while along the tangent called tangential & along the axis called axial force. Difference between axial and tangential is that tangential force is applied on the tangent, on the surface and in axial, not on the surface, means that if we shift axial direction force to the surface, it will become a tangential force. But, the difference between tangential and axial is that tangential force always acting on the surface while axial does not. And radial is always on the radius. If any flow comes like that, usually we hear in turbines, like radial turbine or axial flow turbine. If axial is here, so its inlet is coming from here like that and if radial inlet, it's coming from the top like that so that is the difference between the radial, axial and tangential.
