Week 7(17March - 23 March 2014)

Title: Project progress (FYP 2)
Objective: Result
Content: Week 7, it's still in progress. 

This is the parameter to get the IB value. the user select the single phase or three phase, but the limitation of my project is only for the single phase. I consider the single phase user which is the low cost house. People don't usually use 3phase, so that's why I prefer single phase.That's my limitation. For the power factor and efficiency it's fix which is 0.85 and 90% or 0.9 efficiency. Its the normal value for both of them at Malaysia.

Power factor is the ratio of the main supply and the efficiency is the actual performance with what that can achieved. For the parameter site, since it was a single phase, so the nominal voltage that user need to key in is 230V (since 2008 the IEE regulation has been change from 240V to 230V). The length and the load is depends to the user. Once user key in all the data, click the button IB, it will get the value and appear at coloring box. The coding that I use to get the IB value is based on this calculation:

IB,design current = P/(V x P.f x Efficiency)

Week 6 (10 March - 16 March 2014)

Title: Project progress (FYP 2)
Objective: Result
Content: In week 6, after all the parameter I agree to put at GUI, proceed with the coding for simulation (calculation). The first story board is the front page:

All the axes is a picture. When user click the Next button, it will go to the main page. The coding for the picture appear is:

handles.output = hObject;axes(handles.axes3)
imshow('bmi.gif')
axes(handles.axes4)
imshow('robot.gif')
axes(handles.axes5)
imshow('cablebundle2.gif')

***axes3,axes4 and so on is the axes that the picture will appear and "imshow(robot.gif)" is to show the picture. When run the simulation, it's like the figure below.

Week 5 (3 March - 9 March 2014)

Title: Project progress (FYP 2)
Objective: Result
Content: Week 5, it still in progress. The GUI figure below is the parameter that I used for case study 1.        
                                                                                                                                                                        

 

The figure shown the final parameter that I want to use. When user click conductor information, and it will connect to conductor information.  Figure 1 is the parameter that user key in to get the IB value. The figure 2 is the parameter to get the It,min of the cable.

 Week 4 (24 Feb - 2 March 2014)

Title: Project progress (FYP 2)
Objective: Result
Content: Week 4, it still in progress.I list all the all parameter and outline the GUI.

The picture above shown the example how the flow information that user need to put.All the result will out when user click calculate button. The important:

IB // current design

IN // current rating

V // nominal voltage

//Table at ESB book

Vdr // voltage drop
