Design of new type auto transfer switch for protection of electric power facilities
Hyun Hwa Chung, Dong-A Electric Control Technology Education Center, Busan, Korea
DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2018.631
Abstract: In this paper, we propose a new Auto Transfer Switch (ATS) using only the magnetic contactor without relay unlike conventional ATS. In order to design the ATS, a triple power source is used such as a first power source, a second power source and an emergency generator power source. First power operation design conditions, second power operation design conditions and emergency generator design conditions are presented. The designed ATS did not use any relays and it was implemented with only the magnetic contactor. In the automatic mode, it is possible to solve the short circuit accident due to the phase difference between the different Distribution Line (D/L), and to solve the trip problem due to the neutral line problem between each D/L.

Colour based Quality Analysis of Fruits for Automatic Grading using Raspberry PI
Miss. P. R. Chavhan, Dr. S.V. Rode
DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2018.632
Abstract: Non destructive quality evaluation of fruits is important and very vital for the food and agricultural industry. This project presents fruit quality detection system. The system design considers some features that includes fruit colours and size, which increases accuracy for detection of fruits pixels. Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) is used for background removal, for colour classification Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used. The main idea behind the histogram of oriented gradient is that the local appearance and shape of object in an image can be described by the intensity distribution of gradients or direction of the contours. At present, most existing fruit quality detecting and grading system have the disadvantage of low efficiency, low speed of grading, high cost and complexity. IMAGE PROCESSING offers solution for the automated fruit size grading to provide accurate, reliable, consistent and quantitative information apart from handling large volumes, which may not be achieved by employing the human graders. The hardware prototype also created by using RAPBERRY PI ultra low power microcontroller.

A System and Method for Generation of Power Using Hydrogen Gas
Miss. Nikita D. Tandekar, Mr. Deepak M. Mohabiya
DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2018.633
Abstract: The most common methods of hydrogen production are burning of fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas, heavy oils which release carbon oxides including carbon dioxide into the atmosphere as a greenhouse gas. Yet another cleaner method of hydrogen production is electrolysis. Electrolysis is currently the most feasible means of producing hydrogen. Electrolysis involves the dissociation of water into hydrogen and oxygen by passing a current through an electrochemical cell, and has been available commercially for decades. Again the problem with electrolysis is the fact that it is economically challenging. Our present method provides suitable alternatives to generate power without any carbon emission as with the other power generation systems and an efficient method which also addresses the cost of hydrogen production.

Study on Mask Estimation & Artificial Neural Network for Speech Enhancement: A Review
Suresh Kumar, Mr. Santosh Kumar
DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2018.635
Abstract: Speech enhancement technology can extract the speech signal in noise environment and enhance the recognition rate. As the current speech enhancement algorithms can give results for improved speech audibility only. So, our main motivation is to develop speech enhancement algorithm that would improve performance in speech. It is difficult to understand the speech signal under presence of noise from background areas. The human speech and hearing system is inherently sensitive to interfering noise. The use of speech enhancement algorithm removes or reduces the presence of noise. The aim of the noise reduction algorithms is to estimate the clean speech signal from the noisy recordings in order to improve the quality and intelligibility of the enhanced signal. Due to this, it presents a review on method for speech enhancement using mask estimation iteratively. In this work, it will provide the concept of optimization of cost function by iterative method. This will help for reducing the noise from signal. All simulations will be implemented in MATLAB.

DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2018.636
Abstract: The main goal of this paper is to describe the systems which are multiple module connected together control the devices through web portal. The Internet of Things (IoT) is a global network that links physical object using the web application and network communications. If we look at the traditional IoT device architecture. These devices are the fixed system once those devices are manufactured Its pretty much impossible to change the program of that devices. Also repairing this device is a very costly and tedious process. To avoid this, we have introduced a concept called modular IOT. Modular design is a design approach that subdivides system into smaller parts called modules. A modular system can be characterized by functional partitioning into discrete scalable and reusable modules. rigorously using well-defined modular interfaces and making use of industry standards for interfaces. This proposed system is based on the multiple modules which can be added or removed on the board and to program the microcontroller in such a way that we can change the program anytime we want. This system will be easily upgraded or enhanced by adding the new module. Because of modularity, it will ease the process of repairing the system. Proposed system helps us to develop the system which can be modified reconfigured and enhanced anytime we want. This system will be controlled and configured by the central web portal. When the device initially boots it will seek the information to the server for its configuration. We can easily change the configuration of this system from the website. This will reduce the problem of e-waste because we have to only replace the part which has the fault and upgrade the system anytime we want. The modular approach could lead to a longer useful life of the device.

DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2018.637
Abstract: With the advent of the Internet, systems for streamlining indirect goods and supply chains emerged which is now rapidly adopted by companies. In view of the paper-prone processes in many companies, the implementation of these electronic procurement systems led to substantial improvement potentials. In the existing system, there are a lot of downsides like the enforced policies, controls, restrictions, and the overall learning curve in an e- procurement platform. Due to insecure servers, all the tenders filed up were causing data leakage. In the existing e- procurement system, all the details of the companies, as well as the vendors, are not verified. There are no proper filter options to choose a suitable tender according to your needs and also, there was no option feature for Companies to negotiate the price with the vendors. Security has always been a concern in online transactions and the documentation has always been a tedious job, these issues are addressed in the project. Some suppliers may find online transactions uncomfortable since suppliers don‘t necessarily know whom they are dealing with. Knowing and verifying an organization over the Internet is difficult, and deception is easier to carry out online. The proposed project provides various functionalities such as convenient UI, provide one roof solution with advanced filters, categorization, smart profiling, advanced security features and e-documentation. The proposed project is committed to bringing efficiency and transparency in e- procurement domain. E-procurement technology is the future of supply chain management and will become a core component of organizations vendor management. As the early adapters imbibe this technology, transform their supply chain management, and share their experience, the benefits reaped will accelerate the adoption rate across industries.

DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2018.639
Abstract: Railways is the most convenient, affordable means of transport in India. So keeping this in view, the reservation of railway tickets is the most important task and it must be faster and efficient as the number of travelers is very high. In order to meet this demand, manual reservation is completely ruled out as it is time-consuming. Railways require an efficient program to implement the online reservation system. The proposed system is based on Unique Identification (UID) Technology which is applicable for booking rail tickets and managing travel database for convenience and transparency. The system uses AADHAR database for user verification. The verified user can add money to the system's inbuilt wallet which will automate the ticket booking process. The user then provides thumb impression at the source and at the destination station after checking out. This activity is recorded in the system and fare calculating algorithm in the system then calculates the fare based on source and destination recorded and the amount is then deducted from the inbuilt wallet. Thus, a transparent and user convenient environment is created that provides security in terms of user and payment details and a hassle-free travel This will improve the productivity of the Railways and will boost the "Digital India" campaign

DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2018.6310
Abstract: Renewable energy sources are alternative energy sources, can bring a new challenge when it is connected to the power grid system. As a promising alternative wind and geo-thermal is one of the significant sources of generation. When the wind and geo-thermal is connected to an electric grid it affects the power quality. There are many power quality issues pertaining when wind energy and geo-thermal is connected to the grid. For example reactive power, voltage sag, voltage swell, harmonics, flickers and electrical behavior of switching operation. In order to mitigate these issues, various techniques have been explained in this paper. In this proposed scheme a FACTS devices such as SVC, STATCOM, VSC, UPQC, and UPFC are commonly used to mitigate the power quality measurements. Consequently, with the development of the wind farms and geo-thermal power sources which are integrated into the grid, power quality could be better improved in the future. Recently, the most of wind conversion systems are equipped with a variable speed DFIG and geo-thermal power generation system equipped with high performance synchronous generators. The FACTS device control scheme for the grid connected wind and geo-thermal to improve the power quality standards is simulated by using MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. Results promise, and it seems that suggested idea is competitive with other renewable energy sources. Further studies are necessary to achieve more realistic results to start actual projects.

DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2018.6311
Abstract: This paper focused on identification of simple power system faults using wavelet based analysis of transmission line parameter disturbances. Generally the transients are non stationary waves. Wavelets are best choice to analyses the transient signals. The faults in transmission lines are line to ground fault, line to line fault and three phase faults.. Many researches are even going on to enhance the techniques to solve these problems. Here discrete wavelet transform is used for extract the hidden factors from the fault signal by performing decomposition at each level. These transients can be analyzed by using DWT ( Discrete Wavelet Transform) and the fault can be classified. The maximum detail coefficient, energy of the signal and the ratio of energy change of each phase currents are calculated from the transients produced by each phases due to faults using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and thus detecting and classifying transmission system faults. MATLAB Simulation results presented here validates the component models and the chosen fault detection scheme.

DOI: 10.17148/IJIREEICE.2018.6313
Abstract: Air pollution is caused due to harmful exhaust gases comprising of Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx) and Particulate-Matter (PM) coming out from automotive vehicle engines after the fuel is combusted. To meet the statutory Emission Norms and satisfying the required vehicle torque-speed performance, the quantities of these NOx and PM particles going into the environment have to minimised, which can be done by after-treating the exhaust gases upon dosing Urea (AUS-32). The After-Treatment system comprises of various mechanical processors and Urea Dosing Unit along with its set of various sensors and actuators. The dosing action is performed using a control-system, called After- Treatment Control-System. To meet the precise performance, accuracy and system durability, this control-system has to be tested rigorously in the Test-Labs before they are implemented on the Vehicles. The tests carried out include Failure Modes Effects Tests (FMET), Functionality Tests and Closed-Loop Feature-Tests. These tests have to be repeated and reproduced for each regular software releases. Usually, these tests are conducted using a manual-test bench method – which consumes considerable time, prone to manual errors thus increasing overall testing time and programme cost. This paper discusses about the development of automation for these tests using Hardware-In-Loop (HIL) Automated- Test-Bench Technique, using the hardware combination of ACCEPTS (Automated Common Controls Electronic Product Test System), NI hardware and In-house developed Integrated Circuit Logics. The automated test scripts and hardware control logics are developed using automation programming tools like NI-TestStand and NI-LabVIEW. Comparing to the manual test bench method, automated test bench method have reduced the testing time and thus proved to be cost-effective, while increasing the testing efficiency by 23%.
