1. Title of the Research Proposal : Thennoelectric generator based energy harvester from
transformers
The temperature distribution varies in different parts of the transformer, therefore using a software
like AN SYS it is possible to obtain temperature density plot of a transformer by modelling the
transformer in the simulation software. From the temperature density plot the machine hotspots are
located for fault and working conditions .The thermo electric generator will be implemented at the
hotspotand the thermal energy is converted to electric energy and by using a suitable boost converter,
this energy can be connected to a load.
A transformer is a static electrical device that transforms electrical energy between two or more
circuits through electromagnetic induction. Distribution transformers are step down transformers
Used for electric power distribution purpose and deliver electric power at a utilization voltage level
to the consumer end via energy metering system . Transformer operations lead to production of heat
energy which is generally not conducted to any useful form and is dissipated into the environment
without any potential gains. This heat can be transformed into potential energy source which can
be used to power subsystems or to energize the power grid. A FEM( Finite Element Method)of oil
immersed transformers is developed using AN SYS or MATLAB to investigate the temperature
distribution using the finite element technique due to heat generation in windings and core.
Continuous monitoring of this heat distribution provides useful infonnation on intensity and location
estimation for hottest spot temperature development. The heat energy dissipated from the hotspots
can be converted to electrical energy with the help ofThennoelectric generator through a phenomenon
called Seebeck Effect. A high gain booster circuit system is used to produce high voltage gain from the
low output TEG.
Energy is harvested which is converted to electric form and is used to supply loads , hence this can be
used to power a small unit.

Continuous monitoring of transformer heat distribution could provide useful
information on intensity and location estimation for hottest spot temperature
(HST) development. Changes of heat dissipation at the inner and outer
transformer body tank were analyzed. The results show that the continuous
presence of HST increases oil temperatures as well as inner and outer tank
surface temperatures.

STUDENT PROJECT
Name of the P.l .
y~~O-h;l.tt · C=,
Address of the 1nstitution
I. The scheme is constituted for the purpose of providing assistance in the form of grants to
students for scientific research work with particular relevance to the State of Kerala in the
economic and industrial development.
2 Grant will be released to the principal investigator after the completion of the project through
the Head of the institution.
3. The maximum duration of the project will be one year from the date of start of the project
4. This date of start of the project should be intimated by the Institution authorities/Principal
Investigator to the Council. It shall, in no case be later than one month after the receipt of the
intimation letter from KSCSTE.
5. On completion of the project,-one hard copy and a soft copy (as pdt) of the final project
report on the work done in the prescribed format should be sent to the Council along with the
utilization certificate (UC) and statement of expenditure (SE). The Utilization Certificate
and Statement of Expenditure should be countersigned by the HOI and shall re sulmitted as i:x:rlhe
rules of KSCSlE.
6. The institute will maintain separate audited accounts for the project.
7. The institute will not entrust the implementation of the work for which the grant is being
sanctioned to another institution nor will it divert the grant receipts to other institute as
assistance.
8. The council reserves the right to terminate the project at any stage if it is convinced that the
grant has not been properly utilized or appropriate progress is not being made. In addition ,
the Council may designate Scientist/Specialist or an Expert Panel to review the work oone.
I
9. If the Pl to whom the project has been sanctioned wishes to leave the Institution where the
project is based, the Institute/Pl will inform the same to the Council and in consultation with
Council, evolve steps to ensure successful completion of the project, before relieving the PI.
10. Investigators must acknowledge the Council in reports and technical/scientific papers
publishing based on the research work done under the project. Investigators are requested to
publish some of the research papers emerging out of the project work in leading Indian
Journals.
11. If the results of research are to be legally protected by way of patent/copy rights etc. the
results should not be published without action being taken to secure legal protection for the
