Minimizing Electrical Power Outage In Akwa-Ibom State - A Panacea To Poor Power System Reliability
ABSTRACT This work analysed the current state of power system in Nigeria with emphasis on distribution system using Akwa Ibom Distribution System as a case study. The components of the study system were analyzed. This work adopted the analytical and simulation approach to reliability and stability assessment. Analysing the system the way it is shows that the system was not reliable and stable. The outcome gotten from the base state of the system confirmed this. The results for the curr...
Investigation Of Voltage Stability In Nigeria Integrated Power System Using Pattern Recognition From Power System Simulator For Engineering (PSSE)
ABSTRACT The basic idea deals with detecting the voltage collapse ahead of time to provide the operators a lead time for remedial actions and for possible prevention of blackouts. To detect cases of voltage collapse, pattern recognition in conjunction with power system simulator for engineering (PSSE) program was created and then deployed in Nigeria 330KV integrated power system to develop Regularized Least Squares Classification (RLSC) as well as Classification and Regression Trees (CA...
Gsm Mobile App: A Solution To The Challenges Of The Current Voting System In Tertiary Institutions In Nigeria
ABSTRACT The word “vote” means to choose from a list, to elect or to determine. The main goal of voting (in a scenario involving the students of a given tertiary institution), is to come up with student-leaders of the students’ choice.Most tertiary institutions, FUTO not an exception have problems when it comes to voting. Some of the problems involved include rigging votes during election, insecure or inaccessible polling arena, inexperienced personnel and so on because voting in ...
Design And Development Of Computer Based Test System To Facilitate E-Exam.
ABSTRACT The purpose of this project was to design and develop a Computer Based Testing (CBT) system in order to facilitate the process of conducting e-examinations especially in tertiary institutions. There is a growing need to find an easy and effective way to carryout continuous assessments for the increasing population of students. The CBT system will afford instructors the opportunity to assign different weights to the multiple choice questions. The method adopted was a client/serv...
Design And Construction Of A 40a Intelligent Charge Controller For The Department Of Electrical And Electronic Engineering
ABSTRACT This project presents a 40A maximum power point tracking solar charge controller. The MPPT charge controller tries to keep the voltage and the power stable. The MPPT charge controller will harvest more power from the solar array – it will adjust its input voltage to harvest the maximum power from the solar array and then transform this power to supply the varying voltage requirement of the battery plus load. An MPPT charge controller is an electronic DC to DC converter that ...
Motion Detector
The purpose of this project was to build a motion detector. The main components used were the Arduino microcontroller and the PIR sensor. The project also used an LED and a Piezo buzzer to indicate when motion was detected. The group sought to demonstrate the workings of each component as well as how they work together to carry out the task. The group also drew up a circuit from which the components were connected. The main objective for the project was to practice the skills lea...
Modelling And Simulation Of Leakage-Induced Pressure Drops Along Oil And Gas Pipelines
ABSTRACT This research work on “Modelling and Simulation of Leakage-Induced Pressure drops along oil and gas pipelines tends to develop flow equations that can detect and localize leakages in oil and gas pipelines by modifying the Darcy-weisbach equation for liquid/oil flow, and the Panhandle B equation for natural gas flow in pipelines. These modified equations were simulated using matlab to show how flow rate values for the oil and gas pipelines vary when; the pipeline is working at...
The Impact Of Node Velocity On Mobile Adhoc Data Network (Madnet) Performance
Abstract A Mobile Ad-hoc Data Network (MADNET) is a self-configuring, infrastructure-less network of mobile devices (nodes) where nodes communicate with each other using multi-hop wireless links. Node failures and arbitrary movement of nodes at higher node velocity break the routes and lead to the frequent operation of rebuilding routes that consume lots of the network resources and the energy of nodes. This study, analyses the impact of node velocity on performance of two MADNET Transpo...
Temperature Sensor
A temperature sensor is a device that reads the temperature of the surrounding and relays the temperature either in degrees Celsius or Kelvin. The LM335 temperature sensor (used in the experiment) gives out the temperature in degrees Celsius. It is calibrated to output the millivolt voltage reading in proportion to its units of measurement i.e. it outputs 10mV/0K. The main objective of the project was to build a temperature sensor circuit using a LM335. As part of the project, it was als...
Turning LED on/off using motion sensor
The purpose of this experiment was to obtain a basic knowledge on digital electronics and in turn set the stage to perform the analysis and design of complex digital electronics circuits. It also served as an opportunity to learn how the motion sensor worked by using it to turn the LED on/off. This was done by examining results that were brought forth after carrying out the experiment. The results were analyzed and observations made in order to draw accurate conclusio...
Water Level Indicator- A project report
This project is about water level indicator using raspberry pi. In this project we used led to indicate the different levels and the raspberry pi to display were exactly the level is at in terms of percentages. The simple water level indicator will activate an active buzzer which will make a continuous noise when a certain level of water is reached (maximum).
