9. Date of commencement of the Project:19/09/2022

10. Probable date of completion of the project: 13/05/2023

11. Scope / Objectives of the project :

To improve the properties of transformer oil by fusing nanoparticles
through mixing methods and conducting different set of tests.

12.
Methodology:

One-step method

In this method, some processes are avoided like drying, storage,

transportation, and dispersion of nanoparticles. Stable nanofluid is
prepared by Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) technique in which direct
evaporation and condensation of nanoparticles are carried in the base
fluid.

Two-step method
In two-step method, the nanoparticles are obtained by different methods
and then these nanoparticles are dispersed into the base liquid for the
desired nanofluid. This production process is inexpensive and massive.

 Note: In case of fabrication work in the project, an engineering drawing
with dimensions / detailed design should be attached to the proposal.
13. Expected Outcome of the project:
Enhanced thermal characteristics of the transformer oil.
Validation through IS 1886 STD

14. Is the project proposed relevant to the Industry / Society or

Institution?

Yes / No : Yes
If Yes, please provide details of the Industry / institution and
contact details: The reliability of transformer is an important factor for
proper functioning of the power system. The liquid insulation used in
transformer exerts high impact on life of the transformer. Dielectric
strength, viscosity, thermal and chemical stability are some of the
important indicators of the life of insulation. The various electrical and
mechanical stresses that occur during operation of transformer leads to
different type of defects in winding and insulation that can further lead to
thermal and chemical degradation of the insulation.

(Note: Preference will be given to those projects relevant to the industry /

institution. Hence be specific in giving detailed information). Is the
industry extending support - technology / funds / use the final product,
please specify.
15. Can the product or process developed in the project be taken up for
filing a Patent?
Yes / No: Yes
Prior Art search done?
Yes/No: No
Note: If your answer is “Yes”, you may contact Patent Information Centre
of KSCST. For more details, email: pic@kscst.org.in
16. Budget details (break-up details should be given):
Note: KSCST will provide nominal grant support for carrying out the project by students
if selected by the project selection committee.

Budget Amount (Rs.)

a)Transformer Oil and Nanoparticles 10000

b) Testing Services 50000

c) Travel 2000

e) Miscellaneous(equipments) 10000

Total 72000
