A low cost and reliable protection scheme has been designed for a three phase induction motor against unbalance voltages, under voltage, over voltage, short circuit and overheating protection. Taking the cost factor into consideration the design has been proposed using microcontroller Atmega32, MOSFETs, relays, small CTs and PTs. However the sensitivity of the protection scheme has been not compromised. The design has been tested online in the laboratory for small motors and the same can be implemented for larger motors by replacing the i-v converters and relays of suitable ratings.

Transformerless photovoltaic inverter is characterized by low loss and high efficiency features. But the topology is burdened with leakage current generation problem. In order to minimize the problem, virtual DC bus concept inverter could be a good solution which is proposed in the literature. But some problem still exists with this inverter. Although it suppresses the leakage current through PV panel to ground capacitor but it cannot eliminate the leakage current through one of the inverter phase to ground capacitor. A very conventional LCL filter is used in previous literature to solve the problem but they all offers substantial amount of leakage current in the system. In order to minimize this problem, we have proposed different designed auxiliary circuit for virtual DC bus inverter. The proposed circuit can suppress the leakage current comprehensively and improve the output voltage quality of the inverter. To verify the advantage of the proposed circuit, simulations are carried out which demonstrates a very promising result.

In every process industry, measuring, monitoring and controlling of process parameters (like... pressure, temperature, level, flow, humidity etc.,) plays a vital role in obtaining the desired end product. Among all the parameters temperature measurement, monitoring and control in precise is difficult as it is a slow process. Selection of the sensor for the temperature measurement is crucial. The aim of this paper is to implement low-cost MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) based real time temperature measuring, monitoring and control system which uses a monolithic temperature sensor that provides a pulse width modulated digital output signal corresponding to its input temperature. Two different platforms are chosen to implement the MEMS based temperature control system. First one is using real time controlling software NI LabVIEW and another is using PIC microcontroller. As the implemented system uses advance technologies i.e. MEMS and LabVIEW, results in compactness, low cost, high level of accuracy and wide range of temperature measurement.

This paper proposes a FPGA friendly fused DWT-FFT based technique for broken rotor bar fault detection of induction motor. Discrete wavelet transform is implemented in FPGA platform realizing its time-frequency perseverance quality. The smallest length `Haar' wavelet is capable for detecting broken rotor bar fault with a satisfactory level of accuracy. Since Haar wavelet is used the computational burden and resource utilization are reduced as compared to others. In addition to that significant reduction in FFT computation to analyze the spectrums of specific band makes this approach very FPGA friendly.

In this paper behaviour or performance of three lens antenna; which having different thickness and weight are compared. These three lens antenna are the dielectric piano-hyperbolic lens antenna (DPHLA), phase correcting-Fresnel zone plate antenna (PC-FZPA) and phase shifting surface-lens antenna (PSS-LA). All these antennas are designed for Ka band with operating frequency 30 GHz. However, the dielectric lens antenna can improve the antenna parameters, especially the antenna gain and the planarity of radiated waves. The main goal of this paper is introduction and differences between the most commonly used types of lens antennas. For each lens antenna pros and cons are specified and verified by simulation results.

This paper evaluates the effectiveness of FACTS controller in AC/DC network stability improvements during operational change offered at the interface bus. In general, HVDC links have been used since decades for long distance bulk power transmission and asynchronous interconnections. However, the expansion of load and generation at respective converter station domain keep on changing due to both industrial and population growth, this may result in inadequate converter control behaviour and lead to either connecting AC system stability or converter control operational stability deterioration. Advance converter control technology has been proved successful for various changes offered dynamically, but in case of sudden fault or loss of generator the area may experience undesirable oscillations and may affect converter operation resulting in tripping of converter station. Since converters alone cannot compensate the sudden reactive power requirement due to its own control limitation, this may be viewed as operationally challenging scenario. In open access, as many HVDC links are connected in close proximity, disturbance in one link may introduce oscillation in other connected links and deteriorate the performance of the entire network. STATCOM integration in network has been found better not only for stability but also life extension of both switchyard equipments and controllers deployed. The concept has been demonstrated with study of sample system model represented in PSCAD/EMTDC environment. The analysis provides a recommendation of FACTS controller integration at inverter terminal having low ESCR.

With the increase in the number of vehicles on road, there has been a marked increase in the number of crimes involving vehicle theft. In spite of several stringent laws being in place and security measures taken by car manufacturers, thieves still find a way to remain one step ahead and vehicle theft is still among one of the most reported crimes worldwide. Due to the expensive nature of motor vehicles, there is ample incentive for petty thieves to attempt thefts and a simple redecoration of the exterior makes it almost impossible to track the stolen vehicles. Numerous technologies have been mooted from time to time but have been unable to make a big mark due to their price ineffectiveness and complicated mechanisms. In this document a simple and economical solution to the problem has been presented. This scheme can be assembled and used even by private car owners and provides reasonable protection against vehicle theft.

In today's world, electricity is mainly generated from coal based thermal power plants that used coal as its primary fuel. In spite of an increase of the renewable power into the grid, Coal based Thermal power plants are going to rule the power generation sector in the future to meet the fast growing power needs of the country. Solar energy is one of the easily available sources of renewable energy and could be used to increase the effectiveness of steam power plants. This paper establishes that the fuel saving in coal-fired Power plant by integrating solar energy to increase the temperature of the feed water entering the boiler. As a result, the amount of fuel required to heat the feed water within the boiler to produce steam is reduced. This plant model incorporates a field with solar Fresnel collectors that directly heats boiler feed water. The proposed plant model modification saves substantial fossil fuel input reduction. The best results can be acquired when the group of high pressure heaters (HPH) is replaced by solar field and feed water temperature exceeds its original design value. So it required less amount of heat input from the boiler. A pulverized coal power plant is one of the main CO2 release resources. The integration of the solar field into a pulverized coal power plant assists it to reduce the coal consumption and CO2 emissions.

In this paper, an effective online method used for finite-horizon, nonlinear, stochastic tracking problems, is presented. The method incorporates the finite-horizon State Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE) with Kaiman filter to account for the stochastic environment thereby extending the application spectrum to nonlinear systems and overcoming the hurdle with linear tracking systems limited to small variations around the operating point. The method is illustrated by both computer simulation and experimental verification via hardware in the loop Simulation (HILS).
