Design and Analysis of Converter Transformer
Student at VJTI-Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute
Aug-2015 to Aug-2016
-Blocks higher order harmonics from the input current.
-Extended delta connection is used.
-Six windings on secondary side of transformer.
-This will be used for 36-level converters.
-Simulation models are created on MATLAB and PLEXIM.

Study and Analysis of “Solid State Transformer (SST)”
Student at VJTI-Veermata Jijabai Technological Institute
Aug-2015 to Aug-2016
Solid State Transformer (SST) is widely used in distribution renewable energy resources. SST includes AC-DC rectifier, DC-DC Dual Active Bridge (DAB) converter and AC-DC inverter. In this paper, continuous time average model and dynamic phasor model for combined Rectifier and DAB converter (R-DAB) are developed. Control scheme for R-DAB model is proposed for dynamic phasor based model, in which rectifier and DAB are being individually controlled using PI controller. The effect of controller has been analysed with change in input grid voltage variation. Stability analysis has performed using small signal stability analysis and Lyapunov's criterion. Developed model is verified with simulation in MATLAB/Simulink. Simulation result verifies the proposed modelling technique and controller performance.

Remote Control of Home Appliances
Student at FCRIT-Father Conceicao Rodrigues Institute of Technology
Aug-2012 to Jul-2013
-A device which will switch ON or OFF any home appliances (or load) was made.
-It was made using a sensor, BJT’s, relay and other basic elements.
-By doing some modifications we can make it as burglar alarm or we can control more devices.
-The advantages of this project are maintenance free, compact, simple construction and cheaper.
-Winner of “Mini-Project Competition”, which was organized by Electrical Department.

Design of Testing Bed for Induction Motors
Student at FCRIT-Father Conceicao Rodrigues Institute of Technology
Aug-2011 to Jul-2012
-Study of design of Test bed which will conduct all the tests on Induction Motors.
-Test bed will perform all tests for wide range of power supply with or without Drives from remote location.
-This project consists of applications of Alternator, Transformers, Switchgears, Converters, Invertors, IGBT based variable frequency drive and PLC based automation systems in 3-f power supply.
-Since this project was automated and consists of drives, saving of time and power was possible.
-Study of WinCC and Step-7 softwares and some HMI screens were prepared using same softwares.
-Error list and flowcharts for PLC programming were prepared.
