One of these applications is electric submersible pumps because this technology brings several benefits over conventional induction motors. When permanent magnet motors are combined with adjustable speed drives, there are further benefits, particularly when the drive utilizes sensorless flux oriented control of these synchronous machines rather than the typical volts per hertz control. This paper will go into detail on this new technology and the benefits which are realized with its use.","PeriodicalId":276673,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Petroleum and Chemical Industry Committee Conference (PCIC)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126315649","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}

Several arc-flash mitigation techniques can minimize incident energies during arc-flash events by detecting the light-and-current signature of an arc flash in a fraction of a power system cycle. Like all protection schemes, arc-flash mitigation systems must be field-tested and proven to meet design specifications. This paper explains best-known practices and tools available for commissioning these systems. Topics discussed include how to select and configure test equipment, interpret device self-test diagnostics, and validate system performance with event reports and time-synchronized devices. It also introduces system trip matrices and explains their utility for commissioning personnel. Oscillographic event report data and lessons learned are shared.

Electrical Engineers designing power systems for Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) or Petrochemical facilities typically use two-winding transformers to feed multiple process units in redundant distribution schemes throughout the facility. This method is repeated further to derive different voltage levels to feed process loads. As the industry moves towards larger production facilities which increase the power demand, multiple large two-winding transformers are utilized. This approach leads to increase in substation footprints, switchgear equipment, power feeders, site works, etc. This paper focuses on an alternative design using three-winding transformers for LNG or Petrochemical facilities. The input and output of a three-winding transformer generally consists of one primary (H) input, and two outputs defined as secondary (X) and tertiary (Y). Three-winding transformers are connected in a redundant configuration to feed multiple process units. In this paper, different types of three winding configurations and construction (radial or axial) methods are reviewed. In addition, this paper addresses the application of tap changers, overall system performance, defining impedance parameters, installation method, applications and specification requirements.","PeriodicalId":276673,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE Petroleum and Chemical Industry Committee Conference (PCIC)","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129740160","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}

This paper will cover an application of Real-Time Simulator (RTS) technology for the development, testing, training, and execution of 5kV main-tie- main Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) replacement on-the- run in a large industrial facility. During the upgrade process, a gateway was built and tested to bridge legacy communication protocol with IEC 61850.
