LVDT stands for Linear Variable Differential Transformer. It is an electromechanical transducer that converts linear motion to an electrical signal. LVDTs have advantages like friction-free operation, infinite resolution, and single axis sensitivity. They are used in applications like automation machinery, civil engineering, manufacturing, and testing. LVDTs work using electromagnetic induction - a ferrous core inside alters the magnetic flux in two coils, producing an output voltage proportional to displacement. Common manufacturers include RDP, Macro Sensors, and Honeywell, with LVDTs typically costing a few hundred dollars.

This paper presents 230 66 kV, substation grounding system and calculation results of required parameters. The grounding system is essential to protect people working or walking in the vicinity of earthed facilities and equipments against the danger of electric shock. This paper provides the floor surface either assures an effective insulation from earth potential or effectively equipment to a close mesh grid. Calculations of grounding grid system in the substation area which the top soil layer resistivity is less than the bottom layer resistivity, can lessen the number of ground rod used in the grid because the value of Ground Potential Rise GPR is insignificantly different. Essential equations are used in the design of grounding system to get desired parameters such as touch and step voltage criteria for safety, earth resistance, grid resistance, maximum grid current, minimum conductor size and electrode size, maximum fault current level and resistivity of soil. Calculations of three separate earthing body earth, neutral earth and main earthing are described.

In this 21st century, every day we are dealing with the electronic circuits and devices in some or the other forms because gadgets, home appliances, computers, transport systems, cell phones, cameras, TV, etc. all have electronic components and devices. Today’s world of electronics has made deep inroads in several areas, such as healthcare, medical diagnosis, automobiles, industries, electronics projects etc. and convinced everyone that without electronics, it is really impossible to work.
Therefore, looking forward to know the past and about the brief history of electronics is necessary to revive our minds and to get inspired by those individuals who sacrificed their lives by engaging themselves in such amazing discoveries and inventions that costs everything for them, but nothing for us, and, in turn, benefitted us immensely since then.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
DOWNLOAD
The main objective of this project is to develop a device for wireless power transfer. The concept of wireless power transfer was realized by Nikolas tesla. Wireless power transfer can make a remarkable change in the field of the electrical engineering which eliminates the use conventional copper cables and current carrying wires.
Based on this concept, the project is developed to transfer power within a small range. This project can be used for charging batteries those are physically not possible to be connected electrically such as pace makers (An electronic device that works in place of a defective heart valve) implanted in the body that runs on a battery.
The patient is required to be operated every year to replace the battery. This project is designed to charge a rechargeable battery wirelessly for the purpose. Since charging of the battery is not possible to be demonstrated, we are providing a DC fan that runs through wireless power.
This project is built upon using an electronic circuit which converts AC 230V 50Hz to AC 12V, High frequency. The output is fed to a tuned coil forming as primary of an air core transformer. The secondary coil develops a voltage of HF 12volt.
Thus the transfer of power is done by the primary(transmitter) to the secondary that is separated with a considerable distance(say 3cm). Therefore the transfer could be seen as the primary transmits and the secondary receives the power to run load.
Moreover this technique can be used in number of applications, like to charge a mobile phone, iPod, laptop battery, propeller clock wirelessly. And also this kind of charging provides a far lower risk of electrical shock as it would be galvanically isolated.

Review of Reduction of Leakage Current in Cascaded Multilevel InverterIJRST Journal
Multilevel inverters are a source of high power, often used in industrial applications and can use either sine or modified sine waves. A multilevel inverter uses a series of semiconductor power converters (usually two to three) thus generating higher voltage. Reverse leakage current in a semiconductor device is the current from that semiconductor device when the device is reverse biased. In earlier method transformer is used for generating multilevel output and grid synchronization. Transformer increases the leakage current. Now transformerless method and sine modulation techniques are presented to reduce the leakage current.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

3. DeFiniTiOn OF TRAnSDuCeR
Transducersareelectric or electronic devicesthat
transform energy from oneform to another. For
example, astereo speaker convertstheelectrical
signalsof recorded music into sound. Many
peoplethink of atransducer asbeing a
complicated, technical devicedesigned to gather
or transfer information. In reality, however,
anything that convertsenergy can beconsidered a
transducer.
4. DEFINITION – What is a
LVDT?
Electromechanical
transducer
Coupled to any type of object/structure
Converts the rectilinear motion of an object into a
corresponding electrical signal
Measures Displacement!!!!!!!!
Precision of LVDT
Movements as small as a few millionths of an inch
Usually measurements are taken on the order of ±12
inches
Some LVDT’s have capabilities to measure up to ±20
inches
5. ADVANTAGESOF LVDT:-
LINEARITY:-The output voltage of LVDT is
almost linear for displacement up to 5 mm.
HIGH OUTPUT:-LVDT gives reasonably high
output and hence require less amplification
afterwards.
HIGH SENSITIVITY:-LVDT has high
sensitivity of about 300mV/mm i.e. 1mm of
displacement of the core produces a output
voltage of300 mV,.
7. DISADVANTAGESOF LVDT:-
Comparatively large displacements are
necessary for appreciable differential output.
They are sensitive to stray magnetic fields.
However this interference can be reduced by
shielding.
Temperature affects the transducer.
8. Definition – Why use a
LVDT?
FRICTION – FREE OPERATION
No mechanical contact between core and coil (usually)
Infinite Mechanical Life
INFINITE RESOLUTION
Electromagnetic coupling
Limited only by electrical noise
Low risk of damage
Most LVDT’s have open bore holes
Null Point Repeatability
Zero displacement can be measured
Single Axis Sensitivity
Effects of other axes are not felt on the axis of interest
Environmentally Robust
Stable/Strong sensors – good for structural engineering tests!!!
9. Uses

Magnetic shielding
16. Underlying Principle
Electromagnetic Induction:
Primary Coil (RED) is connected to power source
Secondary Coils (BLUE) are connected in parallel but with opposing polarity
Primary coil’s magnetic field (BLACK) induces a current in the secondary coils
Ferro-Metallic core (BROWN) manipulates primary’s magnetic field
17. Underlying Principle
In the null position, the magnetic field generates currents of equal magnitude in
both secondary coils.
When the core is moved, there will be more magnetic flux in one coil than the
other resulting in different currents and therefore different voltages
This variation in voltages is linearly proportional to displacement
Null position
Displaced
