Abstract: A rocket nozzle is a mechanical device which was to design the control of rate of flow, speed, direction and pressure of stream that exhaust through it. There are various types of rocket nozzles which were used depending upon the mission of the rocket. This analysis was over a convergent divergent rocket nozzle. The objectives are to measure the pressure and Mach number variation within convergent divergent rocket nozzle with different divergent angle. In this paper computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Analysis of various performance parameters like static pressure and the Mach number are studied in detail for a rocket nozzle from Inlet to exit by using Ansys Fluent software. From the public literature survey the geometry of the co-ordinates are taken. A two- dimensional convergent divergent nozzle model is used for the analysis and the governing equations were solved using the finite-volume method in ANSYS FLUENT software. The divergent angles used for analysis were 5°, 9°, 11° 15°,20°.The boundary conditions of the nozzle are specified based on literatures revised. The created nozzle geometry is solid works then exported to ANSYS AUTODYN for meshing. The meshed geometry was imported in the analysis software package FLUENT. The fluid inside the nozzle subject to supersonic speed in standard k-epsilon model and spalart allmaras pressure, density, viscosity along with other details were noted down. The pressure contour and Mach number contour particular nozzle models were plotted. The simulation performed in steady state condition, where oblique shock occurred at flow velocity greater than Mach number 1 was captured. After the simulation the results revealed that the divergence angle varies the Mach number and other performance parameters also varies. The divergent angle increases for each simulation and the results were compared in order to suggest the better nozzle model.

Design and Analysis of Three-Phase UPQC under Steady-State and Dynamic-State Conditions

Kousar Jan, Geeta Pathak | pp: 35-40 | Purchase PDF

Show Abstract

Abstract: This paper investigates the design and performance of a three-phase UPQC in steady state and dynamic state conditions. The UPQC consists of the DC link used to connect the voltage compensators in back-to-back arrangement, which is shared by both series and shunt connections. The UPQC’s shunt compensator adjusts for load current harmonics. The series compensator addresses problems regarding grid-side power quality, such as grid voltage sags and swells, by injecting a suitable voltage in phase with the grid voltage during voltage sag and out of phase during voltage swell conditions. An improved SRFT (Synchronous Reference Frame Theory) controller has been used with the series and shunt compensator. To maintain the DC-link voltage, the shunt compensator uses a PI controller. The steady state and dynamic performance of the developed model are examined by utilizing Matlab-Simulink and a nonlinear load.

Show Abstract

Abstract: The welding input parameters have significant impact on weld joint of a quality. Weld-bead geometry, mechanical attributes, and distortion are a few examples of properties that can be used to describe the joint quality. HR E34 low alloy steel is extensively used in the automobile industry. The material is a high-quality steel that differs from conventional mild steel in that it possesses a special combination of desirable properties. These steels have exceptional yield strength, notch toughness, fatigue characteristics, weldability, and formability. The present article reports on the investigations into the input parameters of resistance spot welding to improve weld quality and weld strength. In order to conduct the experiments, the One-Factor-at-Time method was adopted. The welding current, weld time and electrode pressure were selected as variable input parameter. The output characteristic measured was the tear strength of the welded joint. The experimental results revealed that the welding current of 15kA, welding time of 17 cycles and electrode pressure of 8 bar provided the maximum possible tear strengths of the spot weld joint. The maximum variation in the tear strength of the welded joint was observed by the variation in the welding current.

Tannu, Geeta Pathak | pp: 46-54 | Purchase PDF

Show Abstract

Abstract: This paper proposes conventional proportional integral (PI) controller and artificial neural network (ANN) controller of single phase dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) to enhance the performance of distribution system. The main contribution of this work is designing an ANN controller by using the data obtained from the conventional PI controller for single phase DVR and comparing the performance of both the controllers. For designing the conventional PI controller, two different PI controllers are used for d-axis and q-axis respectively. The optimal PI control parameters are determined using the Zeigler-Nichols method. All the values obtained from the PI controller are then used to train the ANN. The Levenberg Marquardt back propagation algorithm is used as the ANN controller’s training algorithm. The goal of ANN controller is to minimize the error between the actual value and the reference value. After the completion of ANN training the ANN controller is installed in place of PI controller. To validate the effectiveness of the PI control and ANN control, three scenarios are included i.e. sag, swell and harmonics conditions. The ANN training and system design is done using MATLAB/Simulink.
