ANNUAL REPORT

From the Department Chair

We are pleased to share the achievementsand activities of the department with you inthis annual report. As the core of thedepartment, our faculty, students and staffcontinue to produce a steady steam ofremarkable accomplishments. Although wecannot address every success here,highlighted in this report are the naming of twoOffice of Naval Research Young Investigators,Raja Ayyanar and Junshan Zhang. We werethe only department in the nation to have morethan one named. Also notable is our nationalranking in the US News and World Reportstudy of graduate programs in engineering.While the magazine’s methodology may becontroversial, our ranking of 29, tied withseven other schools, is recognition of ourachievements.

Leadership change at ASU is evident at manylevels, starting with the arrival of PresidentMichael Crow three years ago. The FultonSchool of Engineering is currently searchingfor a successor to Dean Peter Crouch and Ihave started in the role of Department Chairthis summer. The transition to departmentchair has been smooth due to theenthusiastic support of the ElectricalEngineering staff and faculty, not to mentionthe strong foundation and intense growth builtthrough the energetic leadership of mypredecessor, Stephen Goodnick. We lookforward to his continuing as a major

Online EducationEE Department takes its master’s program to a new level – distance learning online

The ASU Electrical Engineering Department’s renowned faculty is teaching at a place ithas never gone before – the World Wide Web. This year, the EE Department is offering

online classes for the Master of Science in Engineering in electrical engineering with noresidency requirements. The online courses and M.S.E. program allow alumni andprofessionals to access ASU from anywhere in the world through flexible delivery.

While teaching through distance learning is nothing new to the EE Department, it isthe first opportunity to pursue the M.S.E. in electrical engineering entirely via theInternet. The classes are modeled after those taught in person at ASU and have

been transformed to allow students to access them from the workplace, home orduring travel.

“I really enjoy having the freedom of taking classes at my own pace. Offering onlinecourses at ASU allows me to balance my work, home, and school life,” said Tony Yu, anengineer at Medtronic. “In addition to the flexibility of taking courses online, you get anentire staff of dedicated support from the ASU Engineering Online Team who has beencommitted in seeing me (and ultimately their programs) through to success.”

The material in the online courses is the same as the regular courses taught during theschool year. Students taking the online classes have access to the same lectures throughstreamed media, the same books, and even the same interaction with other students andfaculty through interactive portals in the ASU course management system.

The EE Department has more than 30 students in the MSE online program and serves over100 students taking EE classes as part of the Master of Engineering degree. For additionalinformation, visit www.asuengineeringonline.com or call (480) 965-1740.

PowerEngineering

at ASUArizona State University’s Power Systems Engineering Research Center

is working on solutions for the nation’s power problems.

We take for granted that electricity is always at our fingertips. With a flip of a switch, we havepower; and the power we have is provided easily and efficiently. Certainly, there is much to learn aboutpower transmission and distribution and how we can use and direct power in a more efficient ways. ThePSERC group at Arizona State University is working on innovative ways that will revolutionize the waywe use and receive power.

In 1975, Arizona State University

recognized the importance and need

for power engineers. The industry-

supported power program was

established and since that time,

Arizona State University’s Power

Systems Engineering Research

Center (PSERC) has been working

on ways to improve performance of

electric power transmission and

distribution systems. PSERC

(www.pserc.org), is a National

Science Foundation

Industry/University Cooperative

Research Center that collaborates

with more than 45 industry partners,

including Arizona-based companies

SRP, APS, Next Phase, Western

Area Power Administration and the

Steel Tube Institute, and with 12

other participating universities.

Currently there are 17 M.S. students

and 21 Ph.D. students enrolled in the

Electrical Power program. PSERC’s

research program focus is on helping

the next generation electric power

system evolve into a competitive,

high-performance component of the

nation’s infrastructure. The ASU

PSERC’s research interests are

divided into several areas including:

Power Systems Analysis, High

Voltage Engineering, Power

Electronics, and Instrumentation/

Control.

Power System Analysis The Power System Analysis

research area conducts research to

apply the latest computer technology

to power system analysis to improve

the security and power reliability.

One project this group is working on

is “islanding” for large power

systems. The concept of a power

system has evolved in the last 60

years in North America to be a very

large, complex system. In North

America there are three large power

system interconnections: the Eastern

Interconnection, the Western

Electricity Coordinating Council, and

the Electric Reliability Council of

Texas. These interconnections serve

virtually all the electric customers in

1212

1313

FEATURE STORY

the United States. Arizona is in the

WECC. The reasons for using an

interconnection rather than a single

generator / single load are: better

reliability is attainable (e.g., if one

generating source fails, one can

obtain electric power from another

source) and the possibility of

purchase of power from places in

some economic plan.

ASU researchers are examining

the issues of power system security

and reliability through the use of

‘islanding’. The basic idea is that

during the most severe disturbances,

rather than cause the entire

interconnection to experience a

disturbance that may cause very

large parts of the interconnection to

go out of service (a blackout),

‘islanding’ prescribes that the system

would temporarily operate not as an

interconnected system but as a

collection of smaller regions called

‘islands.’ The concept of power

system islands, how and when to

form them, and how they might

reduce the chances of large

blackouts are being studied by Drs.

Vijay Vittal and G. T. Heydt. Dr. Vittal

is the Ira A. Fulton Chair of Electrical

Engineering, and Dr. Heydt is an

ASU Regents’ Professor.

High Voltage EngineeringThe High Voltage research work

concentrates on the investigation of

dry band arcing produced by fiber

optic communication cable

deterioration. Fiber optic

communication cables are placed on

high voltage transmission lines. The

high electric field produces dry band

arcing on the cables when they get

wet from fog or light rain. Dr Karady,

Salt River Project Chair professor

built an aging chamber to replicate

the dry band arcing and accelerate

the aging. The results of the study

permit researchers to estimate the

expected cable life time. ASU’s High

Voltage laboratory is also working on

the on the evaluation of electrical

property of foams. The foams are

used for electric insulation but the

electrical breakdown mechanism of

these materials has not been

clarified. The researchers are

performing detailed experimental

investigations and are measuring the

breakdown voltage of different foams.

The ASU high Voltage laboratory

also is used to study the properties of

insulators. Non-ceramic insulators

are polymer plastics that have the

possibility for electrical insulator

applications. Costs and weight

compared to ceramic insulators are

generally superior. Dr Gorur recently

investigated the high frequency

electrical field caused degradation of

polymeric materials; and studied the

aging of non ceramic insulators. Dr.

Gorur is also conducting research

dealing with polymeric materials for

insulation systems including outdoor

insulators and surge arresters for

transmission and distribution,

underground cables, transformer and

apparatus insulation, condition

assessment and life-time predictions,

accelerated aging test development,

electric field computations for optimal

design, composite materials for high

temperature low sag conductors, and

failure analysis.Dr. Karady

Dr. Vittal

Power Electronics and Devices

The Power Electronics research

area is examining the development

of new types of power supplies for

both utility and high technology

applications. Two projects that are

currently in development within this

group is a new type of circuit breaker

and a new type of DC converter.

MEMS

The new circuit breaker or switch is

one that will revolutionize circuit

breaker design. This innovative

technology will change the way power

is supplied. As power flows through

transmission lines to reach the end

user or customer, the power may

need to be interrupted. Currently,

mechanical circuit breakers are being

used to stop or interrupt power.

These switches are large and take a

long time to open and close. The

Power Electronics group is

developing a new circuit breaker or

switch. The new MEMS or

microelectromechanical systems

switch is very small. It opens quickly;

in less than a fraction of a second. In

order to control the opening and

closing of the matrix of small

switches, a magnetic field is used.

The advantages to this new switch;

high speed of opening and closing,

small design, and low power loss.

This new switch would replace

conventional mechanical circuit

breakers. Dr. Heydt says, “This is

likely to be the next generation of

circuit breaker. Circuit breakers have

been around since the 1800s and

have changed very little. This new

technology will be the next generation

of breakers that will be able to handle

high power in a small design – with

better control than large mechanical

breakers.”

DC/DC Converter

The Power Electronics Research

area involves efficient control and

conversion of electric power using

electronic devices. The applications

of these converters range from tiny

power supplies in cell phones to

speed control of multi megawatt

industrial motors.

Research at ASU in this area

focuses on three aspects of power

converters – topologies, control

techniques and new pulse width

modulation (PWM) techniques. Dr.

Ayyanar an Assistant Professor in

EE, adds, “We develop new

topologies or circuit configurations

with the objectives of improving the

power conversion efficiency and

reducing the size of the converters.

We recently developed a compact

power supply for the electric

propulsion applications of NASA

concept of integrated magnetics to

reduce the size of these converters.”

A highlight of the research in the

area of converter controls is our

current work on fully modular power

system architecture sponsored by

ONR. The concept is to develop

highly efficient and reliable building

block converter modules and connect

them in any combination of series

and/or parallel connections, at the

input and/or output sides to realize

high power ratings. Such a ‘plug &

play’ type architecture improves

system reliability and significantly

reduces cost through standardization

of components and smaller design

and development time.

Instrumentation/Control

The Instrumentation Research

concentrates on development and

testing of sensor systems for power

generation and transmission

applications. Los Alamos National

Laboratory (LANL) has been a strong

supporter of Dr. Holbert’s

investigations into the application of

commercial microelectromechanical

systems (MEMS) transducers for

nuclear reactors. Such small-sized

MEMS sensors are providing the

means to monitor and diagnose

problems in infrastructures of national

importance as well as the health of

individuals. The sensor location,

whether biological or man-made,

oftentimes represents a harsh

environment, for example due to

radiation. To determine the suitability

of such instrumentation requires

laboratory testing, from which the

collected data are analyzed to

characterize the device in terms of its

response to the harsh environment(s)

in order to develop clear

understanding of the mechanisms of

sensor damage. This includes a

basic understanding of the operation

of the sensors in a hostile

environment, their limitations and

vulnerabilities, and their recovery

characteristics.

The results of testing and analysis

must be applied to the design of the

next generation of devices. Different

situations must be considered, such

as an individual wearing a

pacemaker that incorporates a

MEMS device, which is exposed to

ionizing radiation as part of a routine

chest X-ray. Clearly the device

must be designed and fashioned in

such a manner as to preclude failure

of the pacemaker during an annual

medical exam.
