Project s
Internship Project - Solar Water Heater
Aluminium based solar water Heater project for R&D Department at Thal Engineering PVT Limited.
ASME Competition - Solar Water Heater
Designed and created a single glazed glass sheet water heater with major use of COPPER material.
MS Thesis - Thermodynamic Modelling & Analysis of Micro Gas Turbine as a Range Extender in Electric Vehicles with
the evaluation of Battery Pack sizing.
Range extenders based on micro gas turbine (MGT) technology are being promoted in electric vehicles (EV) in order
to reduce the battery size and extend the driving range. MGT offers higher power density, fuel flexibility, lower
weight and good efficiency (with recuperation) compared to conventional reciprocating engines. MGT facilitates a
relatively smaller battery pack, which ultimately can reduce the capital and maintenance cost of electric vehicles.
Despite its advantages, MGT incurs small-scale design issues related to component performance, heat transfer
between hot and cold sections and manufacturing limitations. In this research project, the design of an MGT has
been studied simultaneously with the battery bank size and charging time analogy with an aim to evaluate their
conjoint operation. In addition, the influence of MGT small-scale effects on battery pack recharging has been
presented. For the study, Gas Turbine Simulation Program (GSP) has been extensively used together with detailed
battery pack calculations. Comparison between sizing of the battery and MGT design is a critical outcome of this
research. Thermodynamic modelling of a Micro Gas Turbine was done by using Gas Turbine Simulation Program
(GSP) & MATLAB to enhance driving range of an Electric Vehicle economically and efficiently by considering its small
scale effects and its link to different battery pack sizes and charging time analogies. Objectives: - Design Point
Selection - Preliminary MGT design in GSP / MATLAB - Thermodynamic Modelling, Simulation & analysis in GSP -
Relating small-scale effects with component and cycle efficiency - Associating with battery pack sizes and charging
time analogies
