Load Frequency Control: A Generalized Neural Network Approach, D. K. Chaturvedi, P. S. Satsangi, P. K. Kalra Sep 1999

Load Frequency Control: A Generalized Neural Network Approach, D. K. Chaturvedi, P. S. Satsangi, P. K. Kalra

D. K. Chaturvedi Dr.

Variation in load frequency is an index for normal operation of power systems. When load perturbation takes place anywhere in any area of the system, it will affect the frequency at other areas also. To control load frequency of power systems various controllers are used in different areas. but due to non-linearities in the system components and alternators, these controllers cannot control the frequency quickly and efficiently. Simple neural networks which are in common use at present have various drawbacks like large training time, requirement of large number of neurons, etc. The present work deals with the developmetn of a …


Design Of An Instrumentation System To Record Distribution Profile Of Snow Layer Temperature For Modelling Of Snow Avalanche Forecast, Raman Attri Aug 1999

Design Of An Instrumentation System To Record Distribution Profile Of Snow Layer Temperature For Modelling Of Snow Avalanche Forecast, Raman Attri

Raman K. Attri

The measurement of snow hydrological parameters is extremely important in developing a model for the predication of Snow avalanche as well as Snowmelt water in the rivers. When direct measurement of these parameters is practically difficult, its dependence on snow temperature is used to develop snow cover models. A robust model for avalanche forecasting requires a sophisticated instrumentation system which can measure the required temperature parameters at right data points within snow pack. A Snow Temperature Profile Sensing System along with Surface temperature Sensor has been designed to measure Snow temperature gradient, temperature distributions, and average temperature of snow pack, …


Implementation Of Linear Array Of Ultrasonic Transmitter-Receiver Transducers For Detection Of Non-Smooth Porous Surface, Raman K. Attri, Swaranjit Singh Jul 1999

Implementation Of Linear Array Of Ultrasonic Transmitter-Receiver Transducers For Detection Of Non-Smooth Porous Surface, Raman K. Attri, Swaranjit Singh

Raman K. Attri

Level measurements, thickness measurement or remote surface detection using ultrasonic pulse transit method require that the target surface be at 90O to the incident beam so that reflected beam comes back at 180O angel to effectively use this method. This is perfectly true in case of flat, solid surface at right angle to the incident beam. But surface irregularities of a porous, non-smooth, uneven material such as snow cause penetration of incident wave into the surface, absorption of the incident energy, scatter of energy in many directions and further attenuation of reflected signal making it difficult to detect the reflected …


Gsis: A Conceptual Model For Web-Based Integration Of Information Technology With Geo-Scientific Instrumentation, Raman Attri Jun 1999

Gsis: A Conceptual Model For Web-Based Integration Of Information Technology With Geo-Scientific Instrumentation, Raman Attri

Raman K. Attri

Since a long time leading organisations have been advocating the need of implementation of IT in a centralised manner on the distributed geological data monitoring centres. In the era of IT, it is highly important to access, share and analyse related data on a common platform for fast retrieval of information in centralised as well as in distributed mode. In this article a concept to integrate Geo-Scientific Instrumentation systems to Information Technology has been highlighted. The vision to create a Geo-Scientific Information System (GSIS) would be an approach where a centralised web-enabled database of the data acquired & transmitted by …


Analytical Investigation Of The Use Of Static Var Compensators To Aid Damping Of Inter-Area Oscillations, Arturo Roman Messina Jan 1999

Analytical Investigation Of The Use Of Static Var Compensators To Aid Damping Of Inter-Area Oscillations, Arturo Roman Messina

A. R. Messina

A comprehensive investigation of the use of Static VAR Compensators (SVCs) to aid damping of low-frequency inter-area oscillations in large interconnected power systems is presented. The study of inter-area oscillations and the design of controls is done using modal analysis of a linearized model of the power system. Based on this model an efficient algorithm to compute the power oscillation flow for each mode of concern is developed. This approach allows to identify the nature of oscillation patterns and provides important information needed in the application of SVCs. Controllability and observability measures are then used to assess the impact of …
