The process of matching parameters such as voltage, frequency, phase angle, phase sequence and waveform of alternator (generator) or other source with a healthy or running power system is called synchronization.
Synchronisation parameters
For proper synchronization of generator and ac power grid,
basically four parameters have to consider:
Sequence of phases of generator and grid.
Voltage Magnitude of both.
Frequency level.
Phase Angle of each phase.
A. Phase Sequence
It is important that, the three phases of both generator and ac
network grid should be in same sequence for proper
synchronizing.
Generator alternator has three 120ͦ degree apart phases which can
be delta or star connected. This phase sequence should be
perfectly matched with grid phase sequence for correct
synchronization.
B. Voltage Magnitude
Every generator is designed to give specific output voltage
magnitude. While synchronizing generator to respective grid,
voltage
level should satisfy essential condition in which the voltage
magnitude (sinusoidal) generated by must be equivalent to the
magnitude of the grid voltage.
C. Frequency
Generator produces electrical energy at certain specific frequency
designed by manufacturer as per requirement. The generator
frequency should be equal to the frequency on which grid operating.
Frequency matching is very important in order to reduce post
synchronization transients on overall system. Generally Syncroscope
is used to consider frequency parameter.
D. Phase Angle
Similar to phase sequence, the phase angle also very important
parameter of generator synchronization to grid. Phase angle is
an
angle between the voltage generated by the generator and the
voltage of grid. This phase angle difference must be zero
while
synchronizing a generator to grid. From observation of peaks and
zero crossing incidence of the sinusoidal waveform (i.e. 0 to
360°), the phase angle can be measured.
echniques for Synchronization
There are different techniques being available for the synchronization of alternators. The primary purpose of these techniques is to check all four conditions discussed above. The common methods used for synchronizing the alternators are given below.
1. Three Dark Lamps Method
2. Two Bright, One Dark Method
3. Synchroscope Method

CODE 102_8 Welding Many welding processes require the application of heat and/or pressure to produce a suitable bond between the two parts being joined. There are a number of conventional and commercially practiced welding processes, which possess limitations in relation to material type and thickness, and in addition, the cost analysis may not allow for a process to be used on a specific application. The selection of suitable welding consumable (electrode or wire) is also an important factor in producing...

Before beginning the design of an apparatus meeting this standard, the designer shall review the discussion on the limitations and accuracy, Section 13, discussions of the energy flows in a hot box, Annex A2, the metering box wall loss flow, Annex A3, and flanking loss, Annex...
10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
