WHO WE ARE?
ABOUT PORUS LAB
An independent engineering lab and knowledge platform for practical controls and energy systems engineering.
Porus Lab bridges engineering theory and implementation. It documents the decisions, models, tools and verification activities behind technical work, so that others can learn from them, reuse them and challenge them.
Microgrid dispatch & energy management: strategies and optimization for coordinating generation, storage and loads.
Power plant control & grid code compliance: plant-level control for renewable and hybrid plants, and the evidence that it meets grid requirements.
Systems engineering & safety analysis: requirements, architecture, SysML v2, DFMEA, traceability, verification and validation.
Supporting work: battery systems, power electronics and open hardware for control experiments
Understand: Define the problem, use cases, requirements, constraints and interfaces before implementation.
Model & develop: Use analysis, simulation, control design, software and hardware to explore and build solutions.
Verify & share: Document checks, test setups, limitations and results, including what did not work.
Evidence over claims. Simulated results are labelled as simulated. Tested results are published with their test setup.
Limitations stated openly. Every project documents what it does not cover.
Reusable by design. Code, models and designs are shared so others can build on them.
Porus Lab is founded and developed by Srinivasarao (Porus) Kavuru, an engineer with 4 Years experience in power plant control, renewable energy systems, microgrid dispatch, grid code compliance and control algorithm validation, with a systems engineering approach that includes DFMEA and traceable requirements.
Porus Lab shares practical work for educational and engineering development purposes. Designs and results should be independently reviewed and validated before use in safety-critical or commercial applications.
