A power generating plant which has gas turbine as the prime mover for the generation of electrical energy, is called the gas turbine power plant. The block diagram of a typical gas turbine power station is shown in the figure.In a gas turbine power plant, natural air is used as the working agent. The air is compressed with the help of a compressor and fed to a combustion chamber where heat is added to this compressed air, which increases the temperature of the air. The heat to the compressed air is added either by burning fuel in the combustion chamber ... Read More

Water TurbineIn a hydroelectric power plant, a device which is used to convert the energy of falling water into mechanical energy is known as water turbine. There are two types of water turbines used in a hydroelectric power plant viz. −Impulse TurbineReaction TurbineImpulse TurbineIn an impulse turbine, the entire pressure of water is converted into kinetic energy in a nozzle and the velocity of the water jet drives the turbine wheel. Impulse turbines are used for high heads. The pelton wheel is an example of the impulse turbine. It consists of a wheel fitted with elliptical buckets along its periphery. ... Read More

The mean square error (MSE) is defined as mean or average of the square of the difference between actual and estimated values.Mathematically, the mean square error is, $$\mathrm{\varepsilon =\frac{1}{t_{2}-t_{1}}\int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}\left [ x(t) -\sum_{r=1}^{n}C_{r}g_{r}(t)\right ]^{2}dt}$$$$\mathrm{\varepsilon =\frac{1}{t_{2}-t_{1}}\left [ \int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}x^{2}(t)dt+\sum_{r=1}^{n}C_{r}^{2}\int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}g_{r}^{2}(t)dt-2\sum_{r=1}^{n}C_{r}\int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}x(t)g_{r}(t)dt\right ]\; ...(1)}$$$$\mathrm{\therefore C_{r}=\frac{\int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}x(t)g_{r}(t)dt}{\int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}g_{r}^{2}(t)dt}=\frac{1}{K_{r}}\int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}x(t)g_{r}(t)dt\; \; ...(2)}$$$$\mathrm{\therefore \int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}x(t)g_{r}(t)dt=C_{r}\int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}g_{r}^{2}(t)dt=C_{r}K_{r}\; \; ...(3)}$$Using equations (1) and (3), we have, $$\mathrm{\varepsilon =\frac{1}{t_{2}-t_{1}}\left [\int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}} x^{2}(t)dt +\sum_{r=1}^{n}C^{2}_{r}K_{r}-2\sum_{r=1}^{n}C^{2}_{r}K_{r}\right ]}$$$$\mathrm{\Rightarrow \varepsilon =\frac{1}{t_{2}-t_{1}}\left [\int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}} x^{2}(t)dt -\sum_{r=1}^{n}C^{2}_{r}K_{r}\right ]\; \; ...(4)}$$$$\mathrm{\Rightarrow \varepsilon =\frac{1}{t_{2}-t_{1}}\left [ \int_{t_{1}}^{t_{2}}x^{2}(t)dt-(C_{1}^{2}K_{1}+C_{2}^{2}K_{2}+\cdot \cdot \cdot +C_{n}^{2}K_{n}) \right ]\; \; \cdot \cdot \cdot (5)}$$Therefore, the mean square error can be evaluated using eqn.

Invertible SystemIf a system has a unique relationship between its input and output, the system is called the invertible system. In other words, a system is said to be an invertible system only if an inverse system exists which when cascaded with the original system produces an output equal to the input of the first system. The block diagram representation of an invertible system is shown in Figure-1.Mathematically, an invertible system is defined as, 𝑥(𝑡) = 𝑇−1[𝑦(𝑡)] = 𝑇−1{𝑇[𝑥(𝑡)]} … for continuous time system 𝑥(𝑛) = 𝑇−1[𝑦(𝑛)] = 𝑇−1{𝑇[𝑥(𝑛)]} … for discrete time systemNon-Invertible SystemA ...

Bounded SignalA signal whose magnitude is a finite value is called the bounded signal. A sine wave is an example of bounded signal.BIBO Stable SystemA system is called BIBO stable (or bounded-input, bounded-output stable) system, if and only if every bounded input to the system produces a bounded output.BIBO Stability CriterionFor a system to be BIBO stable, the necessary condition is given by the expression, $$\mathrm{\int_{-\infty }^{\infty}\left | h(t) \right |dt < \infty \; \;}\;\;...(1)$$Where, h(t) is the impulse response of the system. The condition given in the expression (1) is called the BIBO stability criterion.ProofConsider an LTI (linear time-invariant) ... Read More

Linear SystemA system is said to be linear if it obeys the principle of homogeneity and principle of superposition.Principle of HomogeneityThe principle of homogeneity says that a system which generates an output y(t) for an input x(t) must produce an output ay(t) for an input ax(t).Superposition PrincipleAccording to the principle of superposition, a system which gives an output 𝑦1(𝑡) for an input 𝑥1(𝑡) and an output 𝑦2(𝑡) for an input 𝑥2(𝑡) must produce an output [𝑦1(𝑡) + 𝑦2(𝑡)] for an input [𝑥1(𝑡) + 𝑥2(𝑡)].Therefore, for a continuous-time linear system, [𝑎𝑦1(𝑡) + 𝑏𝑦2(𝑡)] = 𝑇[𝑎𝑥1(𝑡) + 𝑏𝑥2(𝑡)] = 𝑎𝑇[𝑥1(𝑡)] + 𝑏𝑇[𝑥2(𝑡)]Also, ...
