What Are the Best Power Engineering Paper Topics for Seniors?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding suitable paper topics for a senior electrical engineering student interested in power generation, distribution, and energy storage. Suggestions include exploring a pulsed power generator, also known as a compulsator, with a recommendation for the book "Pulsed Power Systems: Principles and Applications" by Hansjoachim Bluhm as a beginner-friendly resource. The student seeks additional study materials, particularly IEEE papers, to support their research. Participants emphasize the abundance of published papers in this field, encouraging further exploration. Overall, the conversation highlights the importance of finding relevant resources for academic success in power engineering.

I am electrical engineering senior taking a class on power generator, power distribution, and motor design. I am looking for final papers ideas. I am very interested in energy storage and its applications. One paper I found was http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7362184/?reload=true. I am looking for more study material and resources(preferably textbooks and research papers). I am also open to other ideas for the paper. Let me know!

I suggest that you consider a paper on a pulsed power generator (also known as a compulsator).

Sounds very interesting. Do you know of any study material associated with this topic? After a little digging, I found a beginner friendly source:
Pulsed Power Systems: Principles and Applications by Hansjoachim Bluhm
It would be great if I could be directed to more resources like IEEE papers. Thank you!
 
I worked in this area some 10+ years ago, but I no longer have any of the references. There have been a slew of papers published through IEEE and others, so keep digging.
 
Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
