About Hydropower Simulation Laboratory (WRD&M)
The laboratory is developed in 2015, with asynchronous and synchronous generators, multi-level power electronic converters, digital signal processors and dSPACE control kits, power quality analyzers, programmable power supplies, and digital storage oscilloscopes. It is committed for the research in support with national organizations including THDC India Limited, Central Power Research Institute, Department of Science of Technology, Ministry of Shipping, and Indian Maritime University (Vishakhapatnam). It offers a PG course entitled “Power Electronic Controlled Hydro-Electric Systems” which provides a platform for the P.G/Ph.D. students to share their views and experience among industrialists, fellow researchers and academicians in the emerging areas of hydropower engineering. The laboratory has signed a MoU with CDAC-T for Full Spectrum Simulator (Mini) program under the support of NAMPET.
