Study and Construction of Temperature Controlling Elements and Circuit

The training Study and Construction of Temperature Controlling Elements and Circuit report has two modules. First module is about the study and experiments on both Phase Change Materials (PCM) and Solar Radiation Chamber. These are used to lower the operating temperature of electronic devices and/or circuits and experiments are conducted on PCM.

Second module deals with the Construction of a Temperature Controller and circuit control temperature controls a fan which is fitted such that when temperature of room increases it automatically turns on the fan and thus temperature is regulated.

The thermal management process is separated into three major phases. They are Heat transfer within a semiconductor or module (such as a DC/DC converter) package, Heat transfer from the package to a heat dissipater, and Heat transfer from the heat dissipater to the ambient environment.

PCM absorbs the heat which is generated to a large extent and helps to work properly. It absorbs heat and liquefies it and under cool conditions it becomes solid state. Hence PCM keeps conditions favorable for working electronic devices. These technologies test at high ambient temperatures.

The systems are Air Circulation System, Heating System, Control System, and Cooling Systems. PCM material is a substance that absorbs high energy before melting or solidifying. A PCM temperature is constant during the phase change that is useful to keep the subject at a uniform temperature. PCM is classified as latent heat storage (LHS) units.

PCM is broadly categorized into composition and application. On the basis of composition, further classifications are Eutectics, Salt hydrates, and Organic materials.

Simulation of Extra High Voltage Long Transmission Lines

Simulation of Extra High Voltage Long Transmission Lines: The electrical power system has three principle divisions the generating stations, the transmission system and the distribution system. The transmission lines link between generating station and the distribution system that lead to other power system interconnections. Today, we are using of Extra High Voltage (EHV) transmission lines for transmission of power between the generating station and distribution system in India.

The main reasons are the construction of super power stations of very large capacities needs the transmission at high voltage so use EHV lines and at high voltages power loss is also reduced since losses are directly proportional to the square of current.

With MATLAB, the simulation of transmission line analyzes the behaviors and parameters of transmission line under the actual conditions to simulate a long transmission line and analyze the waveforms at sending and receiving end. The results after simulation help in designing Extra High Voltage Long Transmission Line Model.

The network is divided into two parts transmission and distribution and transmission system is the main part.  Bulk electrical power transmits from sending end to receiving end stations by transmission line without any consumer and divided into primary and secondary parts. The transmission voltages in India are 66kV, 110kV, 132kV, 220kV, 400kV and 765kV.

The more voltages of transmission line make better performance and efficiency of the system and for this high voltage and extra high voltage transmission lines are used to transmit electrical power from the sending end to the receiving end substations.

The transmission line performance has four parameters. They are Series resistance, Series inductance, Shunt capacitance, and Shunt conductance.

Conclusion:

It is concluded that electrical energy is generated in large hydro electric, thermal and nuclear super and super critical power stations and these stations are present away from the load centers. This is an extensive power supply network between the generating station and consumer load.

Revolutionary Development & Working of Rifle: A firearm is a weapon that projects one or more multiple projectiles at high velocity by rapid and burning of a propellant and this method of rapid burning is called deflagration. The propellant was black powder or cordite in older firearms but modern firearms is smokeless powder. Modern firearms are having rifled barrels to spin to the projectile for better flight stability.

Hand-held firearms such as rifles, carbines, pistols and small firearms are called guns among specialists. Machine guns fire small-caliber ammunition and some machine guns are crew-served infantry give support to weapons with the services of one or more crewman like artillery guns. Firearms have been the predominant weapons used by human beings. Modern warfare relied on firearms with wide-range on military history and general history.

A rifle is a firearm which is used fire from the shoulder with a barrel of helical groove or pattern of grooves cut into the barrel walls. The raised areas of the rifling are known as lands to contact with the projectile that imparts spin around an axis corresponding to the orientation of the weapon.

When the projectile comes out of the barrel, the spin averages out curve improving accuracy to prevent tumbling and improves range like a properly thrown American football or rugby ball acts. A rifle was known to be rifled gun. Rifles are used in warfare, hunting and shooting sports.

A bullet is propelled by the contained deflagration of an explosive compound and compound is originally black powder, later cordite, and nitrocellulose. There are other means like compressed air used in air rifles that are popular for vermin control, hunting small game, formal target shooting and casual shooting.
