Technical Major Project Jan 2013- May 2013
JNTU Hyderabad, India
Role: Team Lead for a group size of 4
• Neural-network- based integrated Electronic Load controller for Isolated Asynchronous Generators in small hydro generation.
This project deals with a neural-network (NN)-based integrated electronic load controller (IELC) for an isolated asynchronous generator (IAG) driven by a constant-power small hydro uncontrolled turbine feeding three-phase four-wire loads. The proposed IELC, with the generating system, is modeled and simulated in MATLAB.
Technical Mini Project May 2012- July 2012
Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited- BHEL Hyderabad, India
• Study of manufacturing process of Turbo Generator.
In our project we have made a detailed study of the VPI system of insulation. The latest technology for insulation in the world adapted by B.H.E.L (HYD) unit is “Vacuum Pressure Impregnation” which is of resin poor thermosetting type. This type is preferred as it is highly reliable and possesses good mechanical, thermal properties and dielectric strength. As the quantity of resin used is less, the overall cost of insulation is reduced.
