    Automatic power factor correction
    (AIKTC, 2021-05) Khan, Mohsin; Jambhale, Ashutosh Suresh (15EE12); Khan, Saeeudurrehman (13EE41); Sheikh, Altamash Ashfaque (16EE33); Shaikh, Mohd Sufiyan Ali Mohd Jawwad (17EE43)
    This project is mainly proposed for reducing the power loss in industries by using power factor compensation through a number of shunt capacitors. Power factor is defined as the ratio of real power to apparent power. So, the increase in reactive power (real power) increases the apparent power, so the power factor also decreases. By having a low power factor , the industry needs more energy to meet its demand, so the efficiency decreases. In this system , we proposed the time lag between zero voltage pulse and zero current pulse delay generated by suitable op-amp circuits in comparator mode and fed into two interrupt pins in the microcontroller. The microcontroller displays the power loss due to inductive load on the LCD. This process is continuously actuated until the power loss would be zero by using relays which are used to bring the shunt capacitors into the load circuit. an 8-bit microcontroller is used in this project which belongs to the 8051 family.

    Gyration of dynamic energy using flywheel
    (AIKTC, 2017-05) Khan, Mohsin; Satware, Sarwar (14DEE14); Tolkar, Huzefa (14DEE17); Ansari, Danish (14DEE10); Patel, Razim (14DEE21)
    Energy storage is a crucial condition for both transportation purposes and for the use of electricity. Flywheels can be used as actual energy storage but also as power handling device. Their high power capacity compared to other means of storing electric energy makes them very convenient for smoothing power transients. These occur frequently in vehicles but also in the electric grid. In both these areas there is a lot to gain by reducing the power transients and irregularities. The research conducted at Uppsala university and described in this thesis is focused on an all-electric propulsion system based on an electric flywheel with double stator windings. The flywheel is inserted in between the main energy storage (assumed to be a battery) and the traction motor in an electric vehicle. This system has been evaluated by simulations in a Matlab model, comparing two otherwise identical drivelines, one with and one without a flywheel.

    Nuclear power plant through automation
    (AIKTC, 2017-05) Khan, Mohsin; Khan, Shairoz (11EE27); Tauseef, Salmani (11EE43); Shaikh, Nadim (11EE47); Shaikh, Saif Ali (11EE46)
    Nowadays the nuclear power plant system operational in domestic as well as foreign countries is generating power in terms of thousands of Kilo watts. These power plants are usually placed in a far off places away from human population so as to avoid any radiation leak casualties. This power generated is transferred to urban cities by means of overhead power lines. The existing power plants have many difficulties they are. humans are involved for operational activities on the floor they are exposed to hazardous environment. Which may cause medical problems in a long terms for them. In case of natural calamity like earthquake or storms the system cannot be shut and power generation continues so there aging a system is needed to deal with necessary changes to adapt. Also the power generated should be kept at ideal value which in all of the power plants existing is fluctuating. The idea of the project is to develop a system an automated nuclear power plant to provide the better way to existing power plants in term of efficiency , output, input, etc by controlling the plant through automation. Nuclear power is one of the ways that we can design an efficient sustainable future. Automation is the primary system used to assist operators in the task of monitoring and controlling nuclear power plants (NPP). Automation performs tasks such as assessing the status of the plant's operations as well as making real time life critical situational specific decisions. While the advantages and disadvantages of automation are well studied in variety of domains, accidents remind us that there is still vulnerability to unknown variables. This paper will look at the effects of automation within three NPP accidents and incidents and will consider why automation failed in preventing these accidents from occurring. It will also review the accidents at the Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima Daiichi NPP's in order to determine where better use of automation could have resulted in a more desirable outcome.

    Procreate the power employing aversion technology to consummate green sources
    (AIKTC, 2018-05) Khan, Mohsin; SATWARE, MOHD HANIF 15DEE21; QURASHI SALMAN 15DEE16, SALMAN 15DEE16; QAZI, MOHD RAAZ 15DEE09; SHAIKH, ATIF HANIF 14EE35
    Since the conventional system is facing many problems such as the incremental of global fuel price and give higher environmental impact. This project was proposed to overcome that problem by designing the system that can generate the electrical energy source without use any fuel or electricity to run it. The approach is based on "Perendev” concept known as PERENDEV MAGNETIC MOTOR. This motor uses magnetic force in order to rotate the rotor. Therefore, the arrangement of the magnet for stator and rotor must be in accurate position to make sure the magnets are not in 'stable' position and static. This PERENDEV MAGNETIC MOTOR is use as a turbine (in hydro power plant) and will connect to generator. Then, during rotating, the generator will produce electricity. A brief explanation about this project is given in the introduction of this report regarding the purpose, the problem statement and the scope of the project. The explanation of the work progress is given in the circuit description.

    Resourceful energy meter using intelligent retrieval system having proficient utilization of energy with immidiate messaging alerts and diminution record generation
    (AIKTC, 2020-05) Khan, Mohsin; Ansari, Abu Alqama (16EE06); Ansari, Gulfam (16EE08); Khan, Mohd Shadaab (16EE19); Mulla, A. Basit (17DEE56)
    It is a difficult job for the electricity board officials to manually take meter readings and calculate bill as it is time consuming and requires workers. Billing consumers for energy consumption is not uniform. It is a tedious job for the electricity board official to manually go and take meter readings of big industrialists and reset their maximum demand after recording it. Even the latest energy meter is not tamper proof. Hence considering all these factors it is possible to design an energy meter that is tamper proof, supports automatic metering and billing system. Also at the same time helps in finding the energy theft in transmission lines. Considering all these features that can be done by a single energy meter it has called “RESOURCEFUL ENERGY METER”. The Resourceful energy meter will be an electronic device that will record consumption of electric energy and communicate the data collected to the electricity supplier for monitoring and billing. It typically records energy hourly or more frequently. The gathered statistics are then transmit to the supplier and corresponding billing calculation has done. Communications from the meter to the network may be wireless, or via fixed wired connections such as power line carrier (PLC). Our project uses embedded GSM technology to transmit the data from meter to the service provider. There are many motivations to improve energy efficiency. Reducing energy use reduces energy costs and may result in a financial cost saving to consumers if the energy savings offset any additional costs of implementing an energy-efficient technology. Reducing energy use is also seen as a solution to the problem of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. According to the International Energy Agency, improved energy efficiency in buildings, industrial processes and transportation could reduce the world's energy needs in 2050 by one third, and help control global emissions of greenhouse gases. Another important solution is to remove government-led energy subsidies that promote high-energy consumption and inefficient energy use in more than half of the countries in the world.
