Instrumentation Lab

General information about lab
The lab aims as a novel experimental teaching aid to the students of Instrumentation and Control Engineering at UG and PG levels in addition to the students from Manufacturing and Process Automation Engineering. The facilities in the lab are for teaching the fundamentals of the instrumentation including both the classical trainer based desktop kits and also the latest state of the art computer based systems on virtual instrumentation. Various types of transducers, data acquisition systems and Virtual Instrumentation using LabVIEW are the main components in the laboratory in addition to the computing facility. This lab has become famous among the students and many top ranking students have dream to work and get associated to this laboratory. Industrial consultancies are the next components being planned to be introduced in the lab.

Following are the key instrumentation systems in this laboratory:

  1. PDS LabVIEW S/W
  2. Multisim
  3. MATLAB
  4. NI-PXI based FPGAs
  5. NI DAQs
  6. NI-ElVIS
  7. Electrodynamic shaker system

Advanced Process Control Lab (APCL)

Location: Room No. 216, Block VI

General information about lab
The Advanced Process Control Lab is developed to trained our under graduate and post graduate students with the advanced concepts used in the process industries. Also, very good research facilities in the field of process dynamics and control along with the robotics are available in the lab. Some of the facilities are study of MODBUS concept, process control rig with level, flow control loops, control valve characteristic (equal percentage), cascade control loop, ratio control loop and feed forward control loop. The lab has latest data acquisition systems with National Instrument (NI) software LabVIEW.  Many research scholars are working in the lab and contributing hardware oriented research papers in the leading technical journals in the world.
