Currently\, he is the Manager Outages and Planning a t Hub Power Station. He is a first class boiler engineer\, and lectured th e students over Boiler Retrofit Project.\n\nDescription : \nTo provide Ac ademic Experts and young Engineers the exposure to real life examples as w ell problems encountered in the industries\, IMechE Pakistan Chapter insti gated Power Lecture Series to engage Professionals from reputable organiza tions to share their experiences and learning.\nThe first event of Power L ecture Series was held in NED University of Engineering &\; Technology (NEDUET)\, Karachi. The event commenced with the recitation of Holy Quran followed by a welcome note by Dr. Nasir Uddin Sheikh (Chairman\, Departmen t of Mechanical Engineering\, NEDUET) who appreciated IMechE for organizin g the lecture. He conjectured that such events would indeed be beneficial to engineering students who are about to step into practical world. Chief Guest Dr. Mohammed Uneeb\, Vice Chairman IMechE Pakistan\, then shared the significance of engaging Academia and Industry. He emphasized on the impo rtance of exposing engineers and faculty to industrial problems. This woul d not only enhance their learning but\, it would also assist implementatio n of their theoretical understanding into practical application. \n\n\n&nb sp\; \; \; \; \; \; \;\n\n\nThe Key Note Spe aker of the day\, Mr. Amir Bashir (Manager Outages &\; Planning and 1st Class Boiler Engineer\, HubCo)\, was then invited to discuss &ldquo\;Boil er Retrofit Project&rdquo\; completed in 2015 at Hub Power Station. After giving a brief overview of Hub Power Station\, he discussed the need/main cause of doing Boiler Retrofit which included Fire Side Corrosion due to c onstituents (Vanadium &\; Sodium) in Residual Fuel Oil\, increased surf ace area of Reheater Tube Bundles resulting in increased Reheat Steam temp eratures as well as sagging and bowing of Super-heater bundle tubes result ing in boiler tube leaks as well as failures. This impacted the reliabilit y as well as availability of generation units while also causing adverse i mpacts on other plant equipment. \n\n\n \; \; \; \; &nb sp\; \; \;\n\n\nSubsequently\, the solution was proposed to impr ove Boiler Tube material from 9Cr to TP347H as well as reduce Reheater sur face while also using improved materials for cleats/hanger supports to add ress sagging issue. Since implemented\, the Boiler Retrofit project was a complete success and no tube leaks have been reported since then.\n\n\n&nb sp\; \; \; \; \; \; \;\n\n\nIMechE Pakistan - South Panel Chairman\, Mr. Farrukh Ali Khan then shared his thoughts and thanked IMechE organizing committee as well as management of NEDUET for c onducting the event. He praised the commitment of industrial experts espec ially professionals from Power &\; Energy sector who play a pivotal rol e in bridging the gap between Academia and Industry\, hence\, contributing to the development of engineers. Moreover\, he thanked Mr. Amir Bashir fo r his contribution and encouraged experts from other sectors to come forwa rd and share their knowledge/experience \;through the platform for th e welfare of engineers and society.\n\n \; \; \; \; &nb sp\; \; \;\n\n\nIn the end\, Dr. Uneeb appreciated the oraganize rs of the event and expressed his desire to organise such events in other universities as well so the journey of learning and development continues. Key Note Speaker Mr. Amir Bashir and Dr. Uneeb were given memorabilia shi elds as a token of appreciation.\n\n \; \; \; \; \ ; \; \;\n\n \; \; \; \; \; \; \;\n\n\n\n\nContact Details: Muhammad Adeel Yaqoob\nTelephone: +923352142 887\nAddress: Pakistan.\n\n Alternative Contact: Dr. Mohammed Uneeb CEng F IMechE\nAddress: Pakistan.
