Objective:

In recent years, control systems have assumed an increasingly important role in the
development and advancement of modern civilization and technology. Practically every aspect of our
day-to-day activities is affected by some type of control systems.
Control systems are found in abundance in all sectors of industry, such as equality control of
manufactured products, automatic assembly line, machine-tool control, space technology and weapon
systems, computer control, transportation systems, power systems, robotics, Micro Electro Mechanical
systems (MEMS), nano technology and many others.
In this subject it is aimed to introduce to the students the principles and application of control
systems in everyday life. The basic concepts of block diagram reduction, time domain analysis solutions
to time invariant systems and also deals with the different aspects of stability analysis of systems in
frequency domain and time domain.

IMPORTANCE OF THE ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS MERASUREMENTS

Electrical measurements course introduces the basic principles of all measuring instruments. It also
deals with the measurements of RLC parameters, voltage, current, power, power factor , energy and
magnetic measurements and digital meters.

The first unit comprises of the various measuring instruments to measure our basic electrical
quantities I.e, DC voltage and DC current by PMMC instruments, AC voltage and AC current by using MI
instruments and AC power by using Electro Dynamometer type instruments.

In second unit we will discuss about CT and PT which are used to step down the voltages and
currents in our transmission lines respectively for relay operation. We also discThe single phase and three
phase power factor of the load by using single phase and three phase power factor meters.

In third unit we will discuss how we can measure power . Basically we have DC power and AC
power. To measure DC power we have V-A method and A-V method. To measure Ac power we have
wattmeter methods. By watt meters we can measure single phase power and three phase power. In the
third unit we will discuss about the energy meters also.By using this energy meters we can know the tariff
of our homes.

In this measurements subject in the remaining units we will know about how we can
measure resistance by using DC bridges and how we can measure L & C by using AC bridges.We also know
about the Electronic Measurements In last two units.

Objective
ELECTRICAL MACHINES III

Objective :

This subject is an extension of previous machines courses. It deals with the detailed analysis of
Synchronous generators and motors which are the prime source of electrical power generation and its
utilities. Also concerns about the different types of single phase motors which are having significant
applications in house hold appliances and control systems.

Synchronous generators are the prime source of electrical power generation in many power plants. In
our INDIA, the highest rating of 3-ph alternator for generating 3-ph AC power is 500MW at voltage range
of 6.6KV to 33KV with 50 Hz cycles/sec

In industry, most of the machines for different applications are 3-ph Induction motor, only a small
amount synchronous machines are used for some special purposes because of its excellent advantages.
The main advantages of 3-ph synchronous motors are it is used as synchronous condenser for power
factor correction, for improvement of voltage regulation in power system, used to drive constant speed
drives of loads etc.

There are two basic reasons for the use of 1-ph motors than 3-ph motors. Those are (i) For the reason
of economy, most houses, offices and also rural areas are supplied with 1-ph ac power. (ii) Economy of
motor and its branch circuit. The 1-ph m/cs are simple in construction, reliable, easy to repair, cheaper
in cost etc.

Objective
Course Objective
The course aims to equip the budding engineering student with an understanding of concepts and tools
of economic analysis. The focus does not only on understand the concepts but apply them in real life by
developing problem solving skills. In short, Managerial Economics imparts to students those aspects of
Economic theory and applications which are directly relevant to the practice of Management and
decision making processes within an enterprise. This aim confines the syllabus only to Microeconomic
Theory and their applications and leaves out Macroeconomic theory and Public Policy.

There exists a relationship between Managerial Economics and Accounting and same is dealt in the
second part of the course. The focus here is on picking up the basics of Accounting such as Accounting
Data and Financial Statements, which constitute the language of Business. The student is exposed and
made familiar with generation, interpretation and use of Accounting Data.

Objective

Electric Power Transmission Course Description:
Electrical Power Transmission Systems engineering along with distribution network
planning and design, play a critical role in the technical management, development, and
acquisition of complex power and energy technology systems. They are the
professionals responsible for planning, coordinating, and overseeing group efforts that
translate operational need into technology solution, and whose tools and skills
determine whether a system will meet cost, schedule, and performance goals.
Along with the increasing complexity of the problems confronting our civilization, system
complexity has dramatically increased over the last several decades. It is even more
important today to deploy advanced methods and improved processes to effectively
track life-cycle costs, calculate risk and complexity, and leverage best solutions and
techniques.
