    (IEEE, 2024-03-22) Shejwalkar, Ashwin; Yusuf, Latifa; Ilamparithi, Thirumarai Chelvan
    The paper performs a comparative study of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for the classification of Static Eccentricity (SE) and Dynamic Eccentricity (DE) faults in a Salient Pole Synchronous Machine (SPSM). The SPSM was subjected to varying SE and DE severities, unbalanced source voltages, and load conditions. Stator and field current data were measured, and various time-domain and frequency-domain features were extracted from the above-mentioned data. Both networks were fed these features and compared based on classification accuracy, robustness, and computational complexity.

    Harmonic Reduction Using Fractional Pitch Winding
    (3rd Biennial Engineering Conference, Federal University of Technology, Minna. Nigeria, 2013-05-16) Enesi Asizehi Yahaya; Mark Nwohu; Henry Ohize; O. Imoru; Usman N. Galadima
    The power source and the nonlinear loads on transmission line are major sources of harmonics and if these harmonics are not controlled, they could lead to heat loss, break down of machines and reducing the efficiency of any machine connected to the supply. The non-sinusoidal currents from the power source increase harmonic contents in the air gap of electrical machines with pole pitch winding which will lead to excessive losses, vibration and noise. This paper presents the use of fractional pitch winding technique for the stator of three phase motor for the purpose of suppressing harmonics. This is investigated between two windings of pole pitch and short-pitch and the results simulated using Emetor Electric Motor software.

    Deployment of an Electronic-based Approach for Fruits Juice Ingredient Analysis
    (International Conference on Science, Engineering and Business for Driving Sustainable Development Goals (SEB4SDG) Landmark University, 2024-04-04) Kufre Esenowo Jack; Lanre Joseph Olatomiwa; Yahaya Asizehi Enesi; Grace Idowu Olaleru; Nnaemeka Emmanuel Ugwuogor; Babawuya Alkali
    This paper considers the deployment of an electronic-based fruits juice ingredient analysis. Most of the fruits juice products available in the market now contain water in large quantities than the active ingredients. This design attempts to respond to the end user's complaints. By putting on this design, it is expected to serve as a quality check and control for our teeming enterprising fruit substance producers. The system was designed and simulated using proteus and implemented using hardware electronic components. The system uses an infrared transmitter, fruit sample handler, and infrared receiver to realize its design. The instrument was calibrated with natural pineapple juice with 60% of water content. The outputs of this device were displayed using a cathode ray oscilloscope and voltmeter respectively. Five different samples of fruit juice were analyzed namely: A, B, C, D, and E. Results showed that all fruit juice contains a reasonable quantity of water which is not regarded as an adulteration since it is the natural content of the fruit. However, water content above 60% may be considered as much. It is recommended that fruit juice producers employ this system for their quality and control checks. Moreover, further research should take into consideration, the colour and viscosity of different fruit juices with a view to seeing how the system can analyze them, while the output should incorporate a microcontroller for an intelligent analysis and digital display.

    (Leonardo Electronic Journal of Practices and Technologies, 2016-06-28) Yahaya Asizehi ENESI; Jacob TSADO; Mark NWOHU; Usman Abraham USMAN; Odu Ayo IMORU
    In this paper, the input parameters of a single phase split-phase induction motor is taken to investigate and to study the output performance characteristics of capacitor start and capacitor run induction motor. The value of these input parameters are used in the design characteristics of capacitor run and capacitor start motor with each motor connected to rated or standard capacitor in series with auxiliary winding or starting winding respectively for the normal operational condition. The magnitude of capacitor that will develop maximum torque in capacitor start motor and capacitor run motor are investigated and determined by simulation. Each of these capacitors is connected to the auxiliary winding of split-phase motor thereby transforming it into capacitor start or capacitor run motor. The starting current and starting torque of the split-phase motor (SPM), capacitor run motor (CRM) and capacitor star motor (CSM) are compared for their suitability in their operational performance and applications

    Pulse Width Modulation Analysis of Five-Level Inverter- Fed Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors for Electric Vehicle Applications
    (International Journal of Robotics and Control Systems, 2021-11-21) Omokhafe J. Tola; Edwin A. Umoh; Edwin A. Umoh
    n recent times, intense research has been focused on the performance enhancement of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) for electric vehicle (EV) applications to reduce their torque and current ripples. Permanent magnet synchronous motors are widely used in electric vehicle systems due to their high efficiency and high torque density. To have a good dynamic and transient response, an appropriate inverter topology is required. In this paper, a five-level inverter fed PMSM for electric vehicle applications, realized via co-simulation in an electromagnetic suite environment with a reduced stator winding current of PMSM via the use of in-phase disposition (PD) pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques as the control strategy is presented. The proposed topology minimizes the total harmonic distortion (THD) in the inverter circuit and the motor fed and also improves the torque ripples and the steady-state flux when compared to conventional PWM techniques. A good dynamic response was achieved with less than 10A stator winding current, zero percent overshoot, and 0.02 second settling time synchronization. Thus, the stator currents are relatively low when compared to the conventional PWM. This topology contribution to the open problem of evolving strategies that can enhance the performance of electric drive systems used in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), mechatronics, and robotic systems

    Performance Analysis of Statistical Time Division Multiplexing Systems
    (Leonardo Electronic Journal of Practices and Technologies, 2010-01) Ajiboye, Johnson Adegbenga; Yinusa Ademola Adediran
    Multiplexing is a way of accommodating many input sources of a low capacity over a high capacity outgoing channel. Statistical Time Division Multiplexing (STDM) is a technique that allows the number of users to be multiplexed over the channel more than the channel can afford. The STDM normally exploits unused time slots by the non-active users and allocates those slots for the active users. Therefore STDM is appropriate for bursty sources. In this way STDM normally utilizes channel bandwidth better than traditional Time Division Multiplexing (TDM). In this work, the statistical multiplexer is viewed as M/M/1queuing system and the performance is measured by comparing analytical results to simulation results using Matlab. The index used to determine the performance of the statistical multiplexer is the number of packets both in the system and the queue. Comparison of analytical results was also done between M/M/1 and M/M/2 and also between M/M/1 and M/D/1 queue systems. At high utilizations, M/M/2 performs better than M/M/1. M/D/1 also outperforms M/M1.
