ACADEMIC STUDY PROJECTS:

1. Minor Project: 5th semester (For Diploma Course)

Rewinding of Induction Motor: In this project we tried to understand the

fundamentals of the winding of Motor, so we rewound an induction motor in

term to understand the making of Magnetic Poles and to know how Motor is

rewound .In general most of the fault occurred in Motor is cleared by just

doing rewinding.

2. Major Project: 5th semester (For Diploma Course)

Lightning Arrester: The lightning Arrester is a device which is used for

protection of power lines & Electrical Equipment. Lightning arrester is

used to ground or earth the excessive voltage occurred in the system.

3. Project: 7th semester (For Degree Program):

Four Channel Wireless Control of Crane Motor: The 4-channel wireless

control is newly adopted in modern systems. This is very useful where

wireless control of the motor or any other equipment is needed. Wireless

control makes the control of any motor very accurate and gives mobile

facility. It is very useful when control is to be done from a distance,

e.g. cranes. This system is very cheap and easy to use. By increasing

number of channels we can improve the circuit and we can control several

motors at a time.

4. Project: 8th semester (For Degree Program)

Speed Control of D.C Motor using PWM Method: The speed control of D.C.

Shunt motor can be done by voltage control by using Pulse Width Modulation

(PWM) techniques. This is widely used in speed control of a D.C. motor. In

this by giving variable voltage in input respective volume of pulses is

available at the terminals of D.C. motor, so the speed of the motor varies.

PRESENTATIONS:

. Paper presentation on "Variance-Based Energy Loss Computation in Low Voltage Distribution Networks"

. Paper presentation on "Load Forecasting" in Spring 2012.

. Paper presentation on "SMART GRID" in spring 2012.

. Paper presentation on "LED" in 6th SEM

. Presented a seminar on Self-Confidence And Common Sense 3rd SEM

. Presented a seminar on Power Of Positive Thinking 4th SEM

. Presented a seminar on How does Induction motor works? 5th SEM

. Presented a seminar on Speed control of D.C motor 7th SEM

. Submitted a term paper on Improvement in Energy Efficiency in Utility 8th SEM.
