DAY IN THE LIFE OF A MECHANICAL ENGINEER! (AEROSPACE EDITION)

This is my experience of my current job in the aerospace field. A lot of aerospace engineers are actually mechanical because the disciplines are so similar (some do get a masters in aerospace), which is why I think MecE is the best discipline because it's so diverse. It's a pretty awesome job; not every engineering job is as interesting as this one but there are jobs like this out there you just gotta search hard and get lucky.

After all those stupid vids where people eat, drink and slack off in the name of "Day in a Life....", our brother has given us a true video of what it is like to be a Mechanical Engineer. Kudos brother!! Love from an Indian Mechanical Engineer.🙌🙌🙌🙌

took thermo last semester and its SO COOL to see that the problems you're solving as an ACTUal engineer are similar to the homework problems we did! sooo many different cycles in that damn class but im glad its actually relevant

[@bobho6854]

Couldn’t have appreciated this video more man. Im a junior mechanical engineering major and just finished taking thermodynamics and fluids mechanics this semester so it was so dope to see all these concepts I’ve studied applied to real industry projets!

[@drwizzels1079]

Started doing a master’s in mechanical engineering. I can say that I was dreading it before but after seeing your video, I’m excited for what the future holds. Great video and keep up the content

Your channel is amazing! Thank you very much for producing this content. It’s helping me a lot to decide which engineering I would like to study.

[@raytally8515]

This video was actually pretty helpful and I like how you explained the theory of what you do. I'm currently working on my mechanical engineering degree and want to specialize in aerospace so it's nice seeing what you would do with the degree in the real world

Wow! This channel makes me realize the other side of being an engineer and it's not always about scary, mind-boggling, or just for nerd thing. But it can also be a fun, creative, and just like any other job. You remove my fear with my dream of becoming an engineer someday. So you deserve my SUB😍, Wish your channel grows!☺️☺️

Ill be honest, I have simply the bare minimum knowledge of what youre talking about in your whiteboard part of the video. But man oh man do I really want to learn this, so I can finally understand how these things work, and how I can use it myself. But this comment isnt all about me, I want to thank you for your video and just taking the time to explain both the work aspect and the engineer aspect. Its deffinitly a gem that im glad I finally found, and you created!

[@BimmerWon]

I’m not an aerospace engineer but I took Gas dynamics where we learned all about shock waves, rocket engines, and jet engines. Also I took intro to flight so I know the basics of how planes work and now I’m taking advanced fluid mechanics where I’m learning about propeller engines and how to reduce jet engine noise while simultaneously increasing efficiency.

[@adityasen610]

Thanks man for this cool vid, other videos just show their life outside work instead of what u showed which almost defeats the purpose of the video. Loved the explanation and breakdown. :)

[@yousafhassan4588]

you are a legend please uploaaaaaaaddd moooooooooooree

[@daveconerly1450]

Man I love the simple way you described the mechanics of the jet engine . I've been trying to find a way to have someone explain the way it works and you did following the simple rules of what every thing means. I've always wondered about air intake , how the damn hot air is cooled and then the thrust part. How a huge 777 uses only two engines to support and fly the weight it has and fly long periods of time so smoothly... ???? What's cool about your explainations is that your really into what your talking about and that personal interest of yours makes it even more exciting because you believe and know what your talking about.

As a second year, I watched this video and was completely lost. Now as a fourth year and nearing graduation I completely understand this and I absolutely love it.

[@swamys745]

Actually I loved these concepts and other thermodynamics concepts while studying at college. I always had a thought to work in the same. After college I did spoke with some experienced engineers they told those concepts are no more be useful, what we studied are different and what we work in industry is different. Fortunately I saw your video now and I gained hope. Thank you so much Mr. Saif

@@robbin4380 Thank you, mate! I`m from Egypt

[@JAVIDOMARESP]

Very well explained except for one detail. Turbines never push the air, they only extract energy from the flow. In turbofans, for example, there are usually 2 or more turbines, the first stages are used to move the compressors and the last for the fan, but never to push the air, it would be a complete loss of energy. Sorry for the correction but I had to say it.

Fast moving plane if you have shock wave before inlet. Compressible flow, thermodynamics, heat transfer, a lot going on here!

[@mrbane2000]

I love researching :)

[@flanker6282]

You can also calculate the heat released into the combustion chamber by using the eq: Q=mf*Hu*η where mf is the fuel mass flow, Hu the lower heating value of the jet fuel and η the combustion chamber's efficiency, primarily depending on its design. The ideal η=1
