The year 2012 particularly winter semester is the most academic year for me at Jigme Namgyel Polytechic, Dewathang because trainees are fully engaged in the Senior Project Work which are research based as well as practical based for different groups other than normal learning in the class for five module. Moreover, they had conducted numerous literally activities other than co-curricular activities.
In this winter semester 2012, i have guided two groups having four members each of final year Electrical Engineering Trainees on the topic "Energy Audit in JNP Campus and Dewathang Town" which is the research based project and " Design Drawing, Estimation and Costing, Maintenance of Block-I" which is a practical based project. Explanation for individual topic will be made in following paragraph:
1. Energy Audit in JNP Campus and Dewathang Town.
This project is basically a research based project where the group members has developed questionnaires and collected data. The collected data is sampled and sample is break up into different categories such as government building, Staff quarter and so on. After doing the analysis of the data's collected, project group has given some recommendation which is good to follow by us (customer). They have compared the existing appliances such as using Incandescent Lamp, Fluorescent tube etc.. by energy efficient appliances like Compact Fluorescent lamp (CFL). This project will give 80% to 90% result because we are not knowing exact duration of the appliances in used.The project group members aim of doing this type project is to make awareness on the saving of energy to the people residing JNP campus and Dewathang Town. They have given the following general recommendations:
1. Replace incandescent lamp by fluorescent lamps or CFL
2. Follow Energy Saving tips given on the BPC websites
3. Consider energy saving opportunities while designing a building
4. Conduct awareness campaign for Significance and benefits of energy conservation.
5. Form an energy management team to use the present buget wisely and efficiently by reducing the energy waste...so on.
As rightly said "Energy saving means saving money"so all of us can follow the recommendation given above in order to save energy and money and gain economy for our country by selling surplus energy to other countries.
2. Design Drawing, Estimation and Costing, Maintenance of Block-I
This project is basically practical based and is related to field work. In this project, they have done 80% physical work such as replacing all the non-working appliances and changing old bus bar by new one. They have also done earthing as existing earthing is not in good condition. Remaining 20%, they have done theory work that is to estimate the Block-I (two storied building) using Bhutan Schedule Rate 2011 and length of wire required for future references. Moreover they have done all drawing works in Auto Cad 2008 and even used Google sketch software to make 3-D of Block-I . So in this project they have gained knowledge in software parts as well as practical works.
Finally i wish all the project group members a successful carrier ahead...

It seems ur trainees have learnt a lot in both research and application basis under ur guidance. i like what u say 'Saving Energy means saving money'. It seems u had good time with ur trainee.....enjoyed reading ur post.
ReplyDeleteThank you bro, for going through my blog and in particular to this topic. Yes i am really enjoy with trainees out here, most noticeably during final semester as i have to guide trainees for final semester project work.
