ENGINEERING PROJECT EXPERIENCE:
Series and Shunt Compensation ofexisting AC line
The Power Transfer Capability of an existing transmission line is increased using voltage compensation techniques.
Designed a 6-Bus interconnected system using ASPEN and PowerWorld.
Implemented the different techniques such as series capacitor compensation, shunt compensation, phase shifting
transformer, adding additional lines and maintained the p.u voltage at all the buses in the range 0.95-1.00 p.u.
Analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of different techniques employed.
Shunt compensation was the most feasible technique among all. Series compensation technique had the limitation
of sub-synchronous resonance.
110 KV Transmission Line Protection using Distance Relay Scheme
Aim was to design and implement a distance protection scheme for a 110 KV transmission line.
Considered a 2-Generator, 3-Bus interconnected system.
Designed the model in EMTP-ATP and the transients due to different faults and switching were studies.
Developed a code in MATLAB to calculate the relay settings.
SEL 221f relay was considered and the relay scheme was verified for different fault conditions using ASPEN.
Load Flow Study of IEEE-57 Bus System and determining Incremental Loss Factors
Developed a MATLAB code to read data form IEEE-57 Bus .cdf file and to form the bus admittance and Jacobian
matrices.
The active power injection at the PV buses was varied by +/- 10% and the variation in the voltage phase angles was
observed by solving the load flow problem using the Newton – Raphson method.
Developed a code in MATLAB which calculated the loss factors using Hill-Stevenson method.
2. Unit Commitment and Economic Dispatch of Large Power System
Considered a standard IEEE-118 Bus system with 54 generating units.
Considered different constraints on the system such as generator constraints, minimum up and down time
constraints, ramp up and ramp down constraints.
Solved the system using GAMS simulation tool.
Unit commitment problem was successfully demonstrated for a 24 hour schedule.
Feedback Control of Power Converters
Designed and implemented a 10-15V input 40V output boost converter.
Calculated the passive elements required for the given specifications and designed a simulation model using
Simulink tool.
Verified the working of the simulation model to meet the given requirements over an output load range.
Constructed the PWM switching circuit and implemented the hardware model for the given requirements.
The hardware model was successfully implemented and working of the model was verified for an output load range
of 10-100W and with 1% variation in the output voltage.
Load Flow Study of IEEE 14-Bus system
Aim of the project was to develop a MATLAB code to solve the Newton –Raphson load flow problem.
MATLAB code was developed to extract the data form a standard IEEE-14 Bus .cdf file and to form the bus
admittance and Jacobian matrices.
Developed a MATLAB code to solve the load flow problem using Newton-Raphson method and write the output
to a text file.
Load flow problem wassuccessfully solved using Newton-Raphson method and the tolerance considered was0.001.
Mini-UPS System (Under Graduate Level)
Aim of the project was to construct a model to provide uninterrupted power supply.
Designed a model which provides supply to a load from a 230V AC supply and charges the battery.
The battery rating was 5V, 1020mAH.
The battery was charged using a step-down transformer, rectifier and a voltage regulator circuits.
Using sensors and inverter circuits the battery was discharged to supply the load whenever the main supply was
cut-off.
A single-phase 50W load was considered for this design project.
Internal Fault modelling of Transformers
Developed a transformer model using EMTP-ATP.
The internal core of the transformer was considered in the model.
