My Journey
Currently in my final year of Electrical Engineering at Nirma University, I've spent the last four years diving deep into both theoretical concepts and practical applications. My coursework has covered everything from circuit analysis and to embedded programming and motor control technologies.
What sets me apart is my hands-on approach to learning. I believe in building projects that solve real electrical engineering problems, which has led me to develop power monitoring systems, embedded control solutions, and motor configuration projects. Each project has taught me valuable lessons about system design, efficiency optimization, and the importance of reliable, maintainable electrical systems.
As I prepare to enter the professional world, I'm excited to bring my technical skills, analytical problem-solving abilities, and collaborative mindset to a dynamic engineering team where I can continue to learn and make meaningful contributions to electrical engineering projects.
Projects
Here are some of the projects I've worked on that showcase my technical skills and problem-solving abilities. Each project represents a different aspect of my engineering journey.
Featured Advanced electrical engineering project focused on Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) optimization. Implemented Torque Ripple Mitigation (TRM) techniques to significantly reduce torque variations, achieving smoother motor operation and improved performance characteristics.
The Kernighan-Lin algorithm is a heuristic for graph partitioning that minimizes edge cuts between two sets of nodes. A Python-based calculator for it takes a weighted graph as input and iteratively swaps node pairs to reduce cut cost. This helps in applications like VLSI design, load balancing, and network optimization.
Implemented PCM-based thermal management for EV batteries using MATLAB and ANSYS; developed system-level thermal models in MATLAB and performed 3D multiphysics simulations in ANSYS to evaluate PCM effectiveness in reducing hotspots, enhancing temperature uniformity, and improving battery safety
Simulated Permanent Magnet BLDC Motor design using MotorSolve, analyzing performance parameters such as torque, efficiency, and speed-torque characteristics.
The project involved designing and simulating a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drive with Field-Oriented Control (FOC) to achieve precise torque and flux regulation with mathematical modeling. Using MATLAB/Simulink, vector control algorithms were implemented to decouple torque and flux components, enabling dynamic performance analysis under varying speed and load conditions. The simulations evaluated torque ripple, efficiency, and transient response, demonstrating the effectiveness of FOC in enhancing PMSM performance for high-precision and energy-efficient electric drives.
Proficient in designing and calculating transformer components, including core, yoke, frame, LV and HV windings, and evaluating associated losses. Experienced in analyzing transformer performance parameters to optimize efficiency, minimize losses, and ensure reliable operation under various load conditions.
