For the first time individual power system engineers can write their own software to do complex analysis rather than relying on software vendors. This is made possible by the introduction into the software marketplace of interactive graphic software which allows complex calculations to be done in symbolic form rather than in software code form. This reduces the time required to create calculation software to a fraction of that previously required. An additional advantage of this software is that it has an open architecture which allows modifications by other users. Users can alter the program as desired to be compatible with other software programs or to achieve specific desired results. This paper is an example of one program written in this symbolic software which calculates harmonic current flow using the admittance matrix method.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":269467,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Pulp and Paper Industry Conference","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114845680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Control systems no longer work in harmony with the process being controlled. This problem is manifested by events such as alarms that have no cause, untraceable variations in plant operations, product quality and quantity that fall below acceptable levels, and unscheduled shutdowns. This problem is not limited to process control rooms, but applies to the commercial computer system that controls the administrative and management information systems as well. The system failures usually derive from substandard air quality and its effects on the electronic equipment in the control rooms. The solution is to have acceptable air quality in the critical facilities at the time the control systems are installed. The damage is irreversible, so \"prevention\" is the objective. This paper outlines the standards by which electronic control rooms should be designed and built, and how gas phase filtration equipment can be applied to achieve the desired protection levels.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":269467,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Pulp and Paper Industry Conference","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133632204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the past several years, much research has been done to develop technologies to provide plant maintenance personnel with better, more objective methods of assessing the condition of machine windings. Through this work, practical methods have been developed for measuring the partial discharge activity in the high voltage insulation of stator windings, since partial discharges are a symptom of most of the major insulation failure mechanisms. One test, called the PDA test, has been successfully used by utilities for many years, and can be performed by plant maintenance personnel during normal operation of a hydrogenerator. A similar partial discharge test, called the TGA test, has now been specifically developed for turbine generators and high voltage motors and is described in this paper. The TGA test allows motor and generator users of machines rated 4 kV and above, to reliably perform an in-service partial discharge test and through interpretation of the test results to confidently assess stator winding condition and plan machine maintenance requirements. Since the test is done by plant personnel during normal motor or generator operation, testing costs are also very low.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":269467,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Pulp and Paper Industry Conference","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131819971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a study can identify any potentially harmful resonances or other harmonic levels that are predicted to be in excess of IEEE 519 recommended limits and suggest corrective measures (if necessary). This paper discusses the impact of the harmonic limits of IEEE Standard 519-1992 on the industrial power consumer and addresses the differences between the 1992 and 1981 versions of the standard. Harmonics produced by variable frequency drives are discussed. The data required to conduct a harmonic study the types of analyses that can be performed, and some of the mitigating measures that can be taken to alleviate a potential harmonic problem are detailed. A case study is presented based on a typical paper mill where a large variable frequency drive was added to the power system.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":269467,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of IEEE Pulp and Paper Industry Conference","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130031474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
