Many of the most common, useful devices that make modern life possible such as automobiles, batteries, computers, light bulbs, mobile phones and satellites, utilise electricity, a form of energy. Electricity may provide the power necessary for a machine to run, or it can carry data. Someone who intends to work as an electrical engineer should be curious about mysterious forces that significantly affect the universe but aren’t obvious to a layperson because electricity is ordinarily invisible to the naked eye. A future electrical engineer should have a powerful imagination and strong abstract thinking abilities. Electrical engineering is an area of science that investigates the nature of matter and energy.

 

Electrical engineering requires the interpretation and application of complex theories and demands technical abilities. High-speed electrical machines are widely used in different industries, such as machine tools, aerospace engineering, autonomous power engineering, etc. Power Engineering is one of the earliest fields that has developed within Electrical Engineering. It deals with the generation, transmission and distribution of electric power. Power engineers also work on a variety of power devices and power conversion. Power engineers deal with devices, processes and phenomena, analysis and design, renewable energy and environmentally-friendly power systems.

 

The electrical machine’s (EM) main task is to provide maximum power with a minimum energy loss and volume of active and constructive elements. The production technology improvement and reduction of the material consumption can significantly reduce the cost of electrical machines, and subsequently, the cost of the systems, where they are used in aircraft and machine tools, or resources obtained with their help like electricity and oil.

 

The development of new industries and the implementation of macro and micro research projects lead to the emergence of new tasks to increase the efficiency of electrical machines and reduce mass and size parameters. It is important to notice that the main consumers of micro EMs are systems with constant power consumption such as computer systems, navigation systems of unmanned aircraft. This type of load will lead to the fact that with the decrease of the HCPM energy characteristics, the magnetic flux density in the air gap decreases under the temperature influence.

 

Therefore, the main application areas of high-speed EMs are high-speed machine tools, aviation and space power engineering, as well as autonomous power engineering. The initial application of high-speed EMs is associated with the development of rocket and space technology.

Engineers And Employability https://caddcentre.com/blog/engineers-and-employability/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=engineers-and-employability Mon, 10 Dec 2018 08:37:11 +0000 https://blog.caddcentre.com/?p=299 The NASSCOM-McKinsey report “Perspective 2020: Transform Business, Transform India” (2009) said that only 26 percent of India’s engineering graduates were employable.

The NASSCOM-McKinsey report “Perspective 2020: Transform Business, Transform India” (2009) said that only 26 percent of India’s engineering graduates were employable. This report was also backed by CP Gurnani, CEO & MD of Tech Mahindra, who has said that 94% of engineering graduates were not fit for hiring.

This staggering percentage is an indication of the fact that colleges are churning out engineers by the minute; yet the talent hardly meet the skill requirements of the industry. While the quantity of talent has considerably gone up, the quality of talent has been on the downward spiral. As Mr. Gurnani has matter-of-factly stated, “We have a skills shortage”. This has led to many corporates either setting up training sectors or depend on establishments involved in training and skilling fresh graduates.

Many factors contribute to the falling employability component of engineers; substandard education, absence of knowledge of the current job scenario among students, lack of involvement of corporates in educational institutions, basic personality and life skills and a poor grasp on the English language.

Every corporate establishment looks for the following qualities in a candidate: Domain skills, aptitude, attitude, language and personality. While our education strives to fulfil the domain aspects of a job, the other factors remain untouched and underdeveloped.

The need of the hour is that every student self-analysis and determines areas of improvement and look for guidance to fill the employability gaps and move forward in a career of his/her choice. Training institutes are, therefore, playing a vital role in making a major chunk of engineering graduates employable by providing vocational training in niche skills and contribute in overall personality development as well.

Electronic Engineering is a discipline of electrical engineering where non-linear and active electrical components are used to design electronic devices, circuits, VLSI devices, and their systems. The active electronic components consist of semiconductor devices such as diodes, transistors, and IC (Integrated Circuits).

Every electronics engineering must know the three basic engineering facts mentioned below

  1. Electronics is a branch of Electrical Engineering

Electrical engineering generally comprises of five elements

  1. Generation (V)
  2. Transmission (I)
  3. Utilization (R)
  4. Measurement (V=IR & P=VI)
  5. Control

The fifth element differentiates electrical and electronics. When the control is manual such as switch and regulator, it falls under mechanical engineering. When the control is automatic through relays, it falls under electron magnetics. On the other hand, when the control is automatic through vacuum tube transistors, it falls under electronics.

  1. Substitutes for Transistor, Gate, and Amplifier

Every electronics engineer should know the originality of transistors, gate, and amplifiers.

  1. A transistor is just a variable resistor.
  2. A gate is just a switch.
  3. An amplifier is just a regulator

III. The truth behind IC’s

An Integrated Circuit (IC) is a simple implementation of circuits inside silicon boards. It is similar to a circuit board. Multiple transistors are placed on Integrated Circuit. Currently, the count of transistors placed inside an Integrated Circuit has exceeded 10,000,000,000, where the size of each transistor is around 10nm (nanometer).

1 nm = 1/1000000 mm

Engineering is a vast field with a list of interesting jobs within it. If you are planning to begin your career in engineering, below mentioned are a few of the most interesting jobs in the field of engineering.

Electrical Engineer

Most of us never realize it, but it is an essential engineering job. The reason is that we use electricity every day, which depends on the efficiency of electrical engineers doing their jobs. Being a sector that demands constant innovation through designing, testing, and supervising engineering products, the scope of the electrical engineering field is huge. Through its use for commercial and consumer purposes, you can always look for new ways to distribute electricity.

Aerospace Engineer

Is there anything more fascinating than the subject of space exploration? Aerospace Engineers are responsible for developing the equipment used in outer space. Some of them work out new ways to get to Mars and explore other planets. While some of the projects can be modest as they work at maintaining satellites and getting astronauts to space stations. Without any doubt, the job of an Aerospace Engineer is regarded as the most in the world of engineering.

Computer Engineer

This domain is the fastest-growing field in the engineering world. Since technology is improving and changing regularly, engineers need to be adaptable and constantly learn new things on the job. The big technological breakthroughs arriving in the year ahead imply that computer engineers will be shaping the lifestyle and the world in the future.

Material Development

Everything that we use in routine is made of a material. The materials have undergone the designing and testing skills of an engineer. The engineers develop plastics, metals, and every other kind of material that varies from massive construction projects to products that we use at home. This diversity makes material development an exciting job for an engineer.

Engineering and other technical professionals weren’t always visualized carrying the coolest jobs in their pockets. However, with the recent development, engineering and other “nerdy” careers are the new rave in the industry.

Following CADD Centre can be a great step towards achieving one’s dream. They offer a range of courses in engineering design, project management, and more, which can help individuals gain the skills and knowledge needed to pursue their goals.
