WEEK 10 (FYP 1)

4TH FINAL YEAR PROJECT BRIEFING

The fourth briefing was conducted at usual place, TTL1 and the attendance is compulsory. The briefing was conducted by Dr. Mohammed Reyasudin Basir Khan.

Date : 13 Oct 2017

Vanue : TTL1

Time : 3.00 pm - 5.00 pm

This workshop is about Abstract Writing and Proposal Defense.

We have be brief about how to write abstract in the proposal report.

• Should not exceed 250 words.
• Avoid using jargon.
• Do not repeat idea.
• Use short & direct sentences.
• Use correct tenses.

I have also learn something about proposal defense.

Presentation to assessor :

• Give the assessor a sense of what your idea.
• Make them want to know more about your project.
• Get feedback on your work.

While preparing slide :

• In bullet point.
• Emphasize the important parts.
• No grammatical mistakes.
• Make sure pictures and images enhance your presentation.

This is a very useful knowledge to help me write my proposal and also getting prepare for my presentation day during Week 14...☺

LITERATURE REVIEW

Journal 2

This week i want to share about rotation of rotor.

In a three-phase induction machine, alternating current supplied to the stator windings energizes it to create a rotating magnetic flux. The flux generates a magnetic field in the air gap between the stator and the rotor and induces a voltage which produces current through the rotor bars. The rotor circuit is shorted and current flows in the rotor conductors. The action of the rotating flux and the current produces a force that generates a torque to start the motor.

An alternator rotor is made up of a wire coil enveloped around an iron core. The magnetic component of the rotor is made from steel laminations to aid stamping conductor slots to specific shapes and sizes. As currents travel through the wire coil a magnetic field is created around the core, which is referred to as field current. The field current strength controls the power level of the magnetic field. Direct current (DC) drives the field current in one direction and is delivered to the wire coil by a set of brushes and slip rings. Like any magnet, the magnetic field produced has a north and a south pole. The normal clockwise direction of the motor that the rotor is powering can be manipulated by using the magnets and magnetic fields installed in the design of the rotor, allowing the motor to run in reverse or counterclockwise.
