--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NPCIL Interview Experience 02/07/2018

Firstly when I entered the room there were 6 members I wished them, they started with formal introduction from where you are,collage etc.
1. Then asked to write down some favourite subjects,  I wrote Thermodynamics, ,FM, SOM, Heat transfer & R.A.C.
2. One panelist started with basic piston cylinder questions generally asked in BARC Interview as I had prepared some barc interview from quora or some where like if a piston and cylinder heated than which process draw PV diagram,if you put sudden mass on piston than which process draw PV diagram,if we put that mass very slowly in fractions than which process I said Isothermal than he told me to draw same PV diagram and than told me to compare both the process in PV diagram like work done, final pressure etc.I answered very well to these questions as I already prepared those.
3. Than he made a opening to the middle of the cylinder to the atmosphere and repeated the same above questions like mass put suddenly and in fractions , now draw PV diagram (first upto hole when piston comes it is constant pressure process as it open to atmosphere but after that same concept adiabatic in sudden mass and Isothermal in slow mass) same above questions like PV diagrams and final state.
4. how work can be calculated from pv diagram and what are the conditions to be occur to Isothermal and adiabatic processes.
5. Then they move to fluid mechanics and gave a building with 8 floors and a pump is put on the base of the building with a water tank there and told that water is not delivering to the 7 and 8 floor why. I suggest NPSH Concept than they asked evrything about NPSH and told me to calculate NPSH of that pump.
6. Next one asked about my intern from where and what you learned there ? Diesel locomotive works in varanasi than asked questions like….Compression ratio of diesel and petrol engine.
ii. kis engine mai kisko mix kar sakte ho petrol mai dieslel ya diesel mai petrol ?
iii. konsa engine heavy hota hai and why.?
iv. kiske cylinder ka pressure jyada hota hai ?
7. Now SOM,  Design of cylinder gave some data and told me to calculate the thikness.I assumed some diameter than asked me about material I told cast iron I took some fector of safety and UTS then they asked about UTS and stress strain diagrams for cast iron and mild steel and tensile test for mild steel , tumne kiya hai kabhi ? I told group mai kiya hai Sir collage mai ,then he asked kaise karte hai ? konsi machine hoti hai ? machine kya measure karti hai ? diagram of specimen etc. and kisme strain jyada hoti hai cast iron or mild steel ?and values of UTS and yield stress or both.
8. Then they asked some questions to production like kon konsi process hoti hai forming ki?Uses of casting, wahan ek bell rakhi thi ye kese banti hai?  iske upar layer kese hoti hai ? (electroplating) asked what is electroplating ? What is 3D printing etc. ?
9. Then finally some questions about NPCIL,  tumhare kota k paas konsa plant hai ?
Kabhi visit kiye ho ?  Baaki plants kahan kahan hai etc ?
Last hum rajasthan walon ko maharasthra mai locate karte hai,  will you face any problem ? and kon konsi PSU k interview diye ho ab tak.

My name is Harshit Kumar Jaiswal GATE Rank 1243I had my GD and PI today at 10:30am slot on 24/04/2018 at NITIE.

First they asked us to sit in auditorium where we were shown introduction videos and then we were told to put our document in the asked order.
After that document verification procedure took more than 1 hour.
GD : My GD group was the last in 10:30am slot, so all the remaining students were put in my group. So the group comprised of 13 candidates. The topic of my group was very easy and general "Use of advertisement a waste of resources"
Total 2 min of time was given to gather our points and 17 min for discussion and 2 min for conclusion. I was third person to speak. In this way I was able to give 3-4 entries. Overall GD went Ok and no fish market was created. There was so much time that after 10 mins we were out of ideas. Almost everyone got a chance to speak. Although 2-3 students still didn't spoke.
PI : After GD we were made to go for PI. The volunteer escorting me told me not to panic as I was fortunate to have the most lenient interview panel of them all.
The panel comprised of three people, two male and one female ( According to the volunteer, their backgrounds were Manufacturing, Quality & HR, respectively). Almost every question to me was asked by one interviewer, who I think was from the manufacturing background. The question they asked were:
1. Tell us about yourself.
TOLD IN ABOUT 90 SECONDS
2. What was your final year project ?
TOLD IN ABOUT 90 SECONDS
3. (While reading my marksheet) Why have you scored so less in Industrial Automation?
ALMOST SPEECHLESS
4. I see that you have studied NDT in BTech. What is NDT?
TOLD IN SHORT TO THE POINT WITH ONE EXAMPLE
5. The subject NDT was of 100 marks and you are explaining so shortly with only one technique. Explain in detail and name 5 techniques.
EXPLAINED BUT ONLY 3 EXAMPLES
5. You have done extra curricular activities related to automobile, tell us what have you studied in the subject Automobile Engineering?
TOLD ABOUT ALL SECTIONS LIKE STEERING, BRAKING, ETC
6. Do you know any new technology in Transmission system?
TOLD THEM ABOUT CVTs CONSTRUCTION, WORKING AND USAGE.
7. Have you heard of ABS?
TOLD THEM ABOUT WORKING AND USAGE.
The interview was very short (just 10 mins) but I think it went well.

BARC INTERVIEW EXPERIENCE 2018

2-Asked about AMU entrance test. (Because of my college- AMU)
3-You came alone ?
4- Mumbai kab pohonche?
5- So you got enough sleep?
6-Gave me a page and pencil and asked me to write 5 core mechanical subjects.
(SOM, THERMODYNAMICS,HT, VIBRATION,ENGG. MECHANICS)

Q1- Told me to draw a conical horizontal bar and specified temperature at both ends and asked me to draw temp profile.
Q2- Same as above but thermal conductivity varying with temperature.
Q3 -Told me to draw a cylinder and specified temperature at outer area and somewhere in middle and asked me to tell the temp profile.
Q4- Same as above but thermal conductivity varying with temperature.
Q5- Same as above but now gave K1, K2. and  asked me to show the variation again.
Q6- Draw a bar and apply axial forces P on 1 cross section,2P on other cross section.
Will there be any stress? 
What will this remaining P do to this bar ?
What about velocity and acceleration of this bar.
If the bar is dropped from a height? 
What happens to velocity and acceleration?
Q7- Draw a cantilever beam and apply a vertical load at some gap from free end asked me to draw deflection curve.
I answered but he gave me some alternate curves and asked me that " aisa bhi to ho skta hai..Apne waisa hi kyu banaya " ?
Q7- Asked what type of stress bar will feel?
Q8- Then told me to assume the cross-section of bar to be solid circular and asked me to draw bending stress variation.
Q9- Now assume it hollow circular and asked bending stress variation.
Q10- Now made it more thin (more hollow) and asked the difference.
Q11- What is section modulus ?
Q12- Effect of section modulus in above question .
Q13- What is failure ? 
Q14- Cycle ko turn karte time velocity kyu kam karte hai aur tilt kyu karte hai ?
Q15- Draw a vertical ring with a bead at bottom (it can slide over the ring) and rotated it about vertical axis and asked where this bead will stay ?
Q16- A tank filled with water supported over a support at middle. If disturbed it can topple on any side. Put a thread in water along the breadth of tank dividing the tank in two parts
Now put wooden small balls on one side of thread one by one without jerk thread will restrict them from going on other side
What will happen will it topple ?
Q17- Boiling will be fast where ? At plane or at the top of hill ? Why?
Q18- Heat a vessel with water inside and cool it under tap suddenly now when you open it , It does not open easily  why ??
Q19- Draw a metallic cylinder with a piston in equilibrium initially inside condition ( P1,V1). Now restrict the motion of piston and put a weight W over it. Now remove the restrictions .What will happen ? Draw the process.
Q20- Same as above but now put weight gradually in fraction of W/100. Till it reaches,  What will happen? Asked me to differentiate between both condition.
Interview finished.

Then asked me about when I will return ? 
Where I am staying ? Have I got admission in IIT ? Did you liked your today's interview ? Is it your first interview ? Then permitted me to leave..
My interview was last interview of that day. 
Duration : 1 hour.
