“To promote knowledge based and technology-driven start-ups by harnessing young minds and their innovation potential in an academic environment”
Institutional Mechanism
NewGen Innovation and Entrepreneurship Development Centre (NewGen IEDC)
The NewGen Innovation and Entrepreneurship Development Centre (NewGen IEDC) is being promoted in educational institutions to develop institutional mechanism to create entrepreneurial culture in S&T academic institutions and to foster techno-entrepreneurship for generation of wealth and employment by S&T persons. The NewGen IEDCs are established in academic institutions (science colleges, engineering colleges, universities, management institutes) having requisite expertise and infrastructure.
Objectives of the NewGen IEDCs:
To channelize the knowledge and the energy of youth towards becoming active partners in the economic development process.
To catalyze and promote development of knowledge-based and innovation- driven enterprises and promote employment opportunities amongst youth specially students.
To inculcate a culture of innovation driven entrepreneurship.
To act as an institutional mechanism for providing various services including information on all aspects of enterprise building to budding S&T entrepreneurs.
Advisory Board
For the effective implementation of the programmes, the Host Institution would constitute an Advisory Board immediately after the sanction of the NewGen IEDCs by the DST. The Advisory Board will lay down policy guidelines, fix up physical and financial targets, suggest measures for raising funds, effective utilization of facilities and expertise available in the parent Institute and sourcing of expertise and facilities from other institutions in the region. The Advisory Board should meet at least twice a year and should hold its first meeting within four months of receipt of grants-in- aid. The student projects should be approved by the Advisory Board.
The Advisory Board composition:
Head of the Host Institution – Chairman : Dr. G.Durga Sukumar
Coordinator of NewGen IEDC – Member Secretary : Dr. Narayan Sangam
One Member from Industry Associations : Dr. Bhagwati Rao:
Alumni Entrepreneurs from the Host Institutions : Mr. Sai Srinivas. Mech. 2007-2011 Batch
Members: All H.O.Ds and Dean Academics

One day workshop on Motivation Towards Entrepreneurship
The management is happy to encourage student community to become entrepreneurs by providing funding for start-ups up to 50 lakhs. Students can come up with different ideas which will be helpful for the society. These ideas will be scrutinized by the experts and the top five ideas will be provided with financial assistance to develop their products as start-ups.
Students can utilize the resources available in the institute after their regular class work ie, from 3.40 pm onwards. Every start-up team consists of Technical, Development and Marketing team members and should complete the product development in specified time period.
Chief Coordinators for Student Start-ups
Dr. S. Deva Prasad, Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering.

Practical Isothermal compression and Isothermal expansion system using Reciprocating piston mechanism.
Salient Features:
1. The temperature at the end of compression or expansion is increased/ reduced only 10-200c in the practical isothermal Compression/expansion system due to more than 100 times increased heat transfer rate than conventional Reciprocating system. 2. With this Invention the Engine efficiency can be increased to 60% i.e. (90% of Carnot efficiency for given Temperature limits) and the all the energy needs can be fulfilled using solar energy economically and efficiently. 3. With this Invention the energy can be stored economically and efficiently in the form of compressed air as an alternate to rechargeable Batteries. 4. The power consumption of Refrigerators and Air conditioners will be reduced to around half.
Twin Engine Automobile.
Salient Features:
Driver gets option to select 1/3capacity engine for low speeds around 40 KMPH) and 2/3 capacity engine for Moderate speeds (80 KMPH) and both engines for high speed (around 120 KMPH) operation. Thereby the mileage of the vehicle will be Improved 100% at low speeds, 50% in moderate speeds and same mileage in high speed like conventional vehicle
Efficient Counter flow Heat Exchanger.
Salient Features:
The efficient counter flow heat exchanger decreases the temperature difference between inlet and outlet on both sides of the heat exchanger to around 10-200c, because of increased heat transfer coefficient and surface area for the given volume and weight of heat exchanger. This heat exchanger is 30 times more efficient than conventional Shell and tube Heat exchanger. With this invention the exhaust gas heat recovery will be very efficient. The efficient Ericson cycle engine can be developed practically with 90% of Carnot efficiency for the given temperature limits.
Energy Saving Fan.
Salient Features:
The Energy saving fan reduces the power consumption to 1/3rd compared to the conventional fan of same capacity of air blow/ min. The fan blades angle and size are increased 4 times and speed reduced 3 times with the help of speed reduction drive, thereby the quantity of air blow is same, but power consumption reduces drastically because the power is proportional to the v3 of fan blade velocity.
Some of the Vehicle Design Models:.
Salient Features:
It is designed for travelling 4 to 5 members with protection from atmosphere. It gives a mileage like a Big Bike. It is economical for middle class families to travel in the cities.
Salient Features:
The Bus is redesigned to reduce the frontal area and coefficient of wind friction. The collapsible wind friction reduction attachments helps to overcome all the problems related to the increase of length of vehicle. Thereby the mileage of Bus will be doubled at highways at high speed.
We have created many more prototypes and 3D models of Innovative products.
