20. History of Electricity
• Starting With Benjamin Franklin
(January 17, 1706 - April 17, 1790)

21. History of Electricity
• Michael Faraday
(22 September 1791 – 25 August 1867)
An English scientist who contributed to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry.
His main discoveries include those of electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism and
electrolysis.

22. History of Electricity
• Alessandro Volta
In 1800, Alessandro Volta, an Italian scientist, made a great discovery.
He soaked paper in salt water, placed zinc and copper on opposite sides
of the paper, and watched the chemical reaction produce an electric
current. Volta had created the first electric cellKumaravel/EED/NITC/10 Dec 2015
23. History of Electricity
• André-Marie Ampère
(20 January 1775 – 10 June 1836)
In September 1820, Ampère showed that two parallel wires carrying
electric currents attract or repel each other, depending on whether the
currents flow in the same or opposite directions, respectively - this laid
the foundation of electrodynamics.Kumaravel/EED/NITC/10 Dec 2015
24. World First Generating Station
September 4, 1882, that Edison switched on his Pearl
Street generating station's electrical power distribution
system, which provided 110 volts direct current (DC) to an
initial load of 400 lamps at 85 customers. By 1884, Pearl
Street Station was serving 508 customers with 10,164
lamps. The station was built by the Edison Electric
Illuminating Company, which was headed by Thomas
Edison.

26. First Power Plant in India
The first plant consisted of two 65 kW Crompton-Brunton single-phase,
2300 volts and 83.3 hertz alternators coupled with two Gunther's
Turbines. India's first Hydro-Electric Power Station with 2 x 65 kW
capacity was commissioned on 10 November 1897 by C. C. Stevens, the
then Acting Lieutenant Governor of Bengal.

44. Fourier Heat Conduction equation
• It is the transfer of thermal energy
neighboring molecules in a substance due to a
temperature gradient.
• It is due to the combination of vibrations of
the molecules in a lattice the energy transport
by free.

The sine wave can be represented as the projection of a vector rotating at a constant
rate. This rotating vector is called a phasor.
Why A.C is represented as Phasor?
Kumaravel/EED/NITC/10 Dec 2015
54. Phasor Diagram
• The instantaneous value is
the actual value you would
measure at time t. This
value is never greater than
ε0.
• The instantaneous value can
be represented as the
projection of the phasor
vector onto the horizontal
axis of the circle.

• Reliability
• Synchronization issues
• Focus on renewable energy sources
• Load dispatching
• Maximum energy utilization
• Power quality - Harmonics
Kumaravel/EED/NITC/10 Dec 2015
78. Distributed Generation
• Distribution generation (DG) is the generation of electricity by facilities
sufficiently smaller than central generating plants and is integrated within
distribution systems at nearby to the point of use. This on-site generation is
often called “Distributed Generation” [3].
• “Any electric power production technology that is integrated within
distribution systems fits under the distributed generation umbrella. The
designations “distributed” and “dispersed” are used interchangeably [1].
• Distributed generators are connected to the medium or low voltage grid.
They are not centrally planned and they are typically smaller than 30 MW
(DTI 2001). [4]
• These distributed generation systems, capable of operating on a broad
range, offer clean, efficient, reliable, and flexible on-site power alternatives.

80. For What he won the Nobel Prize?
Kumaravel/EED/NITC/10 Dec 2015
81. Einstein’s Invention
• solar energy directly into electricity by
Einstein himself in 1905. In 1921, he won the
Nobel Prize for this original proposal.
• The theory proposed that if sunlight is shine
on the metal with a specific frequency
corresponding to that metal, current is
produced. Since current is the flow of
electron, electricity is produced.
• In 1954, the first photovoltaic technology is
developed the silicon photovoltaic cell at Bell
Labs.

88. Root-mean-square (RMS) value of a
waveform, in terms of Fourier series
• Similar expression for current
• Harmonics always increase rms value
• Harmonics do not necessarily increase average
power
• Increased rms values mean increased losses
Kumaravel/EED/NITC/10 Dec 2015
89. Power factor
• Power factor is a figure of merit that measures
how efficiently energy is transmitted.
