FPGA & EMBEDDED SYSTEMS AND INFORMATION APPLIANCES

Seminar on the topic of FPGA & Embedded Systems and Information Appliances was
organised by IEI Students Chapter (EEE Department) on 19 & 20 July 2017. Embedded system is
a combination of computer hardware, software and, perhaps, additional mechanical parts,
designed to perform a specific function. Embedded systems are not always standalone devices.
Many embedded systems consist of small parts within a larger device that serves a more general
purpose. Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are semiconductor devices that are based
around a matrix of configurable logic blocks (CLBs) connected via programmable interconnects.
FPGAs can be reprogrammed to desired application or functionality requirements after
manufacturing.
Ms. N.Thilagavathi, DIC, Namakkal delivered a seminar on the importance of
Embedded Systems and Information Appliances. Her seminar covers various classification of
embedded systems and wide area of applications of embedded systems. Unlike usual computers,
embedded systems use different underlying software that cannot be modified by consumers. Since
they will be used for long periods of time and cannot be programmed easily, they’re expected to
run without any problems. Based on performance and functional parameters, she classified
embedded systems into the following four categories such as Standalone Embedded Systems,
Real-time Embedded Systems, Networked Embedded Systems and Mobile Embedded Systems.
Through her speech the students got the clear idea on importance of embedded systems in day
today activities.

COMMERCIALIZING SUSTAINABLE ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES

BEES Association organised a seminar on “Commercializing Sustainable Energy

Technologies” in association with IEI Students Chapter on 21.07.2017 for the benefits of EEE
students. The role of technology in the sustainable economic development of a country is
crucial. In general, technology is viewed as a mechanism, which transforms the natural
resources into goods and services useful for the survival of human life.
The technologies are expected to facilitate improvement in living standards, promotion
of efficient use of resources, adaptation to local conditions and needs, and integration with
other existing technologies. In short, the technologies should meet both the livelihood and
lifestyle needs of people in a sustainable manner.

Mr. P. Vijayakumar, Proprietor, Green Resource Enterprises elaborated about the

various sustainable energy technologies available and how to commercialize the sustainable
energy. The seminar started with Stages of Commercialization of SETs in India which involves
the table showing types of sustainable energy technologies available and their potential capacity
and various subsidy schemes.
SETs have a crucial role to play in the realm of sustainable development either through
conservation of natural resources and environment or through contributing to the economic
growth via advanced technology, increased productivity, improved life style and lower risk of
fossil fuels. At present, the SETs in India are at a very low level of commercialization. Barring a
few SETs like solar water heaters, wind energy, small hydro and solar PV, most of the SETs in
India have fallen inside the valley of death, where the cost of production is high and scale of
production is low.
Thus the seminar helped in creating awareness about the various sustainable energy
technologies available and their commercialization. This seminar created a path for student
entrepreneur to get involved in sustainable energy technology.

HT LINE TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION

On Behalf ISTE Students Chapter organised a guest lecture in the topic of HT Line
Transmission and Distribution on 19.08.2017. Electricity is transmitted at high voltages (115 kV
or above) to reduce the energy loss which occurs in long-distance transmission. Power is usually
transmitted through overhead power lines. Underground power transmission has a significantly
higher installation cost and greater operational limitations, but reduced maintenance costs.
Underground transmission is sometimes used in urban areas or environmentally sensitive
locations.

Mr. M. Kalai Raja, Assistant Executive Engineer-TNEB from dindugal delivered the
guest lecture and his lecture aimed at providing in-depth knowledge for the students in the areas
of transmission and distribution of high tension electrical energy. The students from second, third
and final year gained clear knowledge on real time terminologies and problems associated with
various types of transmission and distribution systems. The various modes of transmission of
electrical power were clearly explained by the resource person. His presentation attracted the
students. They showed keen interest towards the topics delivered.

IDEA CONTEST

To motivate our department students for developing the new ideas “Idea Contest”, an intra
department mini project show cum exhibition was organized by BEES Association on 19.08.17.
Second, third and final year students displayed and demonstrated their ideas in various fields of
electrical engineering. The theme for their ideas covered various areas such as advancement in
farming, servicing the societal needs etc.,

Chief guest Mr. M. Kalai Raja, B.E., M.S., Assistant Executive Engineer, TNEB made
a grand opening for the project expo. He have gone through the various ideas exhibited by the
students in form of prototype and encouraged the students through his valuable suggestions and
motivation towards the advancements they have to include in their prototype. The best project
teams were selected by the jury and they will be provided with awards and certificates.

POWER QUALITY

On behalf BEES association a one day seminar on Power Quality was organised on
17.08.2017 for our department students in association with IEI Students Chapter. The main
objective of this seminar was understanding a number of power quality issues including electrical
harmonics, poor power factor, voltage instability and imbalance impact on the efficiency of
electrical equipment. Thus as a electrical engineer, the awareness on power quality has to be
incorporated among the students for satisfying industrial requirement and thereby enabling the
students to do project in the area of power quality.

Mr. V. Mohan from Swam Systems, Karur delivered lecures on Power Quality and
various terminologies. The seminar covered wide areas including harmonics transients voltage
variations and flickering etc.,
The student’s attention was good and the session was very much interactive. The
participant’s interaction was very much appreciated by the resource person. He also discussed on
various areas need to concentrated on industrial sectors for the power quality improvement and
industrial projects with the scope of power quality improvement.

POWER SYSTEM ANALYSIS

The objective of power system analysis is to make sure the equipment work together so
that the required power is delivered to the load centres at the prescribed voltage and frequency.

Dr. R Raghavan, Advisor, Equip Foundation elaborated the areas of power system
analysis with all main divisions such as load flow analysis, short circuit studies and Stability
studies
Besides these the concepts like maintaining correct voltage using automatic voltage
regulators and capacitor/reactance banks, maintaining correct frequency by load frequency
control, selecting generators optimally were also explained.
Introduction to various specialized software like ETAP, PSCAD, MI power etc., were
found to be useful for the students for various power system analyses. If more power is produced
than consumed the frequency will rise and vice versa. Even small deviations from the nominal
frequency value will damage synchronous machines and other appliances. The real time
difficulties in power systems like the amount of active power consumed plus losses should always
equal the active power produced were also addressed.
