Static relay working and simple explanation. By Yuvi - Study Point

Hey everyone, so today we are going to learn about the static relay. It's working, explanation, etc. 
So, without wasting any time lets get started. 

What are static relays?
  • Static relays are electrically operated switch that has no moving parts or we can say that the term static implies or states that the relay has no moving parts or the relay which does not have any moving part is known as the static relay.  
  • In this relay, only D.C supply is given to the relay measuring unit, amplifier, output device and to the trip circuit.
  • Which means the output is obtained by the static components like an electronic circuit, magnetic circuit, etc.
  • The static unit is used to obtain the response and the electromagnetic relay is used for switching operation.
  • So this static relay consists of the static and electromagnetic relays.
More brief information about static relays.
  • The static relay only gives a response to the electrical signal.
  • The design of static relays are based on analog electronics devices and it does not base on coils to create the relay characteristics.
  • Static units obtain the response and the purpose of using an electromagnetic relay is only for switching operations.
  • The static relay is consists of a current transformer or potential transformer or transducers, rectifier, amplifier, trip circuit, an output device, relay measuring circuit, etc.
 The Operation and working of static relays.
  • The input of the current transformer is connected to the transmission line and its output is given to the rectifier.
  • The rectifier is an electrical device which converts the alternating current means A.C which can periodically reverse its direction to direct current (D.C) which flows in only one direction. Simply, it converts the A.C into D.C.
  • Rectifier rectifies the input signal and passes it to the relaying measuring unit.
  • Relay measuring unit has comparators, level detectors, and logic circuit. So, the output signal from the relaying unit is obtained when the signal reaches its threshold value.
  • And the output of the relaying measuring unit acts as an input for the amplifier.
  • An amplifier amplifies the signal and gives the output to the output device.
  • Now the output device activates the trip coil only when the relay operates.
  • The output is obtained from the output devices only when the measured has well-defined value.
  • And when the output device gets activated then it gives the tripping command to the trip circuit.
  • We know that the static relay only gives the response to the electrical signal and if there is a physical quantity like light, heat, etc. So, firstly these physical quantities need to convert into an analog and digital electrical signal and then it acts as the input for the relay.

NBFM & WBFM (Narrow band frequency modulation & Wide band frequency modulation) simple explanation. By Yuvi - Study Point

Hey everyone, today we are going to learn about NBFM & WBFM (Narrowband frequency modulation & Wideband frequency modulation) in simple or easy way. So, without wasting any time lets get started. The information about NBFM & WBFM When the spectrum's efficiency is important or it is required then we use NBFM (Narrowband frequency modulation) is used.  But when better signal quality is required or when it is important then we use WBFM (Wideband frequency modulation). The term NBFM is used for those applications where the modulation index is less than or equal to 1. And the term WBFM is used for those applications where the modulation index is greater than or equal to 1. Now, let's see more difference between Narrow band frequency modulation(NBFM) and Wideband frequency modulation(WBFM). The term narrow-band and wide-band refer to the actual radio channel bandwidth. The purpose or advantage of using NBFM (Narrowband frequency modulation) The purpo...

Air Preheater, Superheater & Reheater simple learning. By Yuvi- Study Point

Hey everyone, today we are going to understand Air preheater, Superheater, and reheater in a simple or easy way. So, without wasting any time lets get started. Why air preheater is required? The entire heat of the flue gases cannot be recovered by the help of an economizer. So, air preheater is also required to recover some of the heat through the flue gases. The boilers efficiency is also increased by 1% with the help of air preheater. {NOTE: If you guys don't know about the economizer then go through this link which is shown below. Because in this lecture video I have properly explained the economizer in a simple way.} Economizer video link.    https://youtu.be/scxizKi7kZQ  And check out this blog if you want to simply know about it in writing. https://www.blogger.com/u/1/blogger.g?blogID=8839271828242826805#editor/target=post;postID=1907393019648483083;onPublishedMen The information about air preheaters? Now, back to the point. The ...

RVDT (Rotary variable differential transformer or transducer) simple explanation. By Yuvi - Study Point

Hey everyone, today we are going to simply learn about RVDT (Rotary variable differential transformer). So, without wasting any time lets get started. RVDT is a passive transducer which means it requires an external power source. Its designing is same as like LVDT (Linear variable differential transformer o transducer) but the main dissimilarity is that RVDT has a cam-type core or we can say rotary ferromagnetic core which means the shape of the core is different because LVDT consists or employs flexible iron core for displacement.   And by the help of shaft, this core will turn or rotate among the two windings of the transformer. The shape of an RVDT is cam-shaped. Three conditions which occur is RVDT is ~ *when the core or shaft is placed at the null position then the induced e.m.f in secondary windings are similar as well as revers in phase. E0 = E1- E2 = 0 *When the core rotates in a clockwise direction, in this the more section of the core will enter ...
