Abstract

Outcome based education establishes a method of evaluating the program education objective. The National board of Accreditation, India has laid down 12 attributes as program outcomes which suits the engineering education as per the norms of ABET accreditation system globally. The attainment of these 12 attributes as program objective will have to be mapped to the Program Educational Objective (PEO). The attainment of the program outcomes is achieved by designing the curriculum considering all the attributes so that the graduate gets trained in all the outcomes. The attainments of the PEOs are assessed by alumni, employees, graduate entrepreneurs and stake holders' survey.

Abstract

The implementation of electric power in aircraft system increases the use of different kinds of power electronic converters such as AC/DC rectifiers, DC/AC inverters and DC/DC choppers in the system. The incursion of numerous power electronic devices leads to complex network and also causes power quality and stability issues. The current harmonics may cause unbalance in the aircraft electric power system and severe voltage distortion. Thus, the active filters can compensate the harmonics, improves the power factor and work as a reactive power compensator, thus in turn afford power quality enhancement of the system. This work proposes the use of a five level cascaded H-bridge VSI with an improved current control and a suitably developed modulation strategy to reduce harmonics in air craft system.
