Electronics and Electrical Engineering Projects Ideas for BE Honors

Engineering graduation is the most honorable degree in science and technology and all the engineering graduates can be treated as BE Honors. During the graduation, the engineering students are trained with several theoretical subjects and practical labs. But, students are required to design and implement electrical and electronic engineering projects to become proficient BE honors. Engineering projects are part of engineering academics which can enable the technical standards of engineering students. Engineering projects can be designed using different platforms, but embedded system is typically used for designing easy engineering projects. But, what are engineering projects?

Engineering Projects

Engineering projects can be defined as the technical skills of the student in innovative thinking regarding the creation of project ideas, implementing, designing, testing, and executing the practical electrical and electronics project circuits to maximize their theoretical & technical skills.

Engineering Project Ideas

Engineering projects are different for different streams such as electrical engineering projects for EEE, electronic projects for ECE, and so on. We found that engineering students are interested to develop projects on their own, for this reason here in this article let us discuss about a few innovative engineering project ideas for EEE and ECE students.

Electrical Engineering Projects

It is difficult for the EEE students to design real time electrical engineering projects as the real time circuits deal with very high voltage, current, and power ratings. So, here we gathered and listed a few easy engineering project ideas for EEE students that can be implemented and designed on their own by using our free eBook to design engineering projects.

HF based Wireless AC Power Transfer

HF based wireless AC power transfer is one of the innovative electrical engineering projects which is designed for charging electric vehicles, mobile batteries, etc., wirelessly. The wireless power transfer can be achieved by developing high frequencies using a high frequency transformer. This HF transformer develops high frequency supply of 12V at 25 to 40 KHz from the available 230V at 50 Hz.

The resonating coil made of multi-strand copper acts as an air core transformer and input to this is taken from the output of HF transformer. Thus, a 12V at high frequency is generated in the secondary coil. Hence, the power is transferred from primary (can be considered as a transmitter) to secondary (considered as receiver) which are separated by a specific distance (here it is around 3 to 5cm). The wireless power can be used for various purposes (here a DC load is operated after duly rectifying it).

Automatic Emergency LED Light

The automatic emergency LED light is one of the easy engineering projects which is used as automatic emergency light (during night time mains power supply interruptions). High intensity white LEDs are used for the light source. If power is turned OFF or interrupted, then the LEDs get turned ON using the battery power. And once if the power is retained, then the LEDs get turned OFF and during this condition the batteries get charged.

Automatic Switching Power Supply

The automatic switching power supply electrical engineering project is used for turning OFF and ON based on the load condition. If the load doesn’t draw any current, then the power supply will be turned off automatically using the transistor and a relay arrangement in the circuit. The potentiometer in the circuit can be used for varying the current drawn by the load.

List of a few other easy innovative electrical engineering projects:

• DC motor speed control using PWM technique in all four quadrants
• Remote controlled bidirectional motion of exhaust fan
• Time delay switch based control of home appliances
• Three phase sequence checker with LED indication
• Short duration load control using touch switch
• 555 timer based low voltage DC to high voltage DC
• Rash driving detection wirelessly using the IR sensor
• Solar power charge controller
• Automatic phase selection based on availability in three phase power supply system

Electronic Projects

It is a challenging task for the ECE students to design real time electronic projects. So, here we gathered and listed a few easy engineering project ideas for ECE students that can be implemented and designed on their own by using our free eBook to design engineering projects.

Thyristors based Dual Converter

Thyristors based dual converter is one of the easy electronics engineering projects which is designed for changing the DC supply polarities from the available AC in order to control the DC motor in both the directions. In this project, two SCR bridges along with push button switches are used for changing the polarities and thus, the direction of the motor. These thyristors are interfaced to the 8051 microcontroller used in this project using an Opto-isolator.

Flexible AC Transmission by TSR

FACTS by thyristor switched reactor is simple engineering projects which is used for the compensation of voltage. Generally, when there is no load or while the load is drawing very less current (because the power is constant which is the product of voltage and current, hence if current decreases, then the voltage increases), then the voltage at the receiving end will be greater than the sending end voltage which causes load damage. Thus, by using the thyristor switched reactor (choke is used in this project) the voltage can be duly compensated.

Induction Motor Speed Control using Thyristor based Cyclocoverter

The speed of single phase induction motor can be controlled using thyristor based cycloconverter with which the motor can be operated in three different speeds. There are different techniques to control the speed of induction motor, but, this is an economical method compared to other methods. In this project, the fundamental frequency can be changed into different ranges (f, f/2, and f/3) and thus, speed can be varied accordingly. By using the programming technique, the thyristor bridge can be triggered to achieve the speed control of induction motor.

List of a few other easy innovative electronics engineering projects:

• Home automation using RF
• FACTS by Static Var Compensator
• Space vector pulse width modulation
• Fan speed control using IR remote technology
• Programmable AC power
• Track sensing robotic vehicle movement
• Dancing LEDs using music tone
• Automatic emergency LED light
• Active mobile detector
