Hi I am guessing your query and replying
So what I understood there are two existing generators i.e G4 and G5.
If any amongst G4 or G5 goes out G6 will come on board .
Yes this can be achieved by designing an automatic transfer circuit , starting , synching and bringing G6 on line .
This...
Yeah Bill you seems to be correct....I always dealt with megawatts....but wondering this 1 KW generator may spoil the equipments it is feeding to in case no frequency protection.
Hello PRC
Yes it will be effetive ,much better then gaseous suppression system.
For a transformer ranging 50 to 60 MVA , roughly weighing 500 to 600 tonns , if undergoes a fault like short circuit , will result in core tempreatures rising upto 500 to 600 degree cecius.
At these tempreatures the...
We are going to install water mist type fire protection system for the Gas Turbine Generator (GTG) enclosure. One system for the Gas Turbine enclosure and the other one is for the Power Generator Enclosure.
This is an upgrade project where the existing inergen system will be replaced with...
I guess you deal with 50 HZ .
So ,4 pole , 1500 RPM motor , 1250 KW motor shall generate a torque of 6631 N-m torque and will be suited for generating a 1000 eKW.
+/- 300 RPM shall mean that the generator frequency shall be 40HZ @ 1200 RPM (-300 RPM)( thus your generator breaker may trip due to...
Hi !!
I will explain in a reverse way , by taking an example . Just ignore the material which is not relevant to you .
Suppose you have to calculate the 3 phase short circuit at point A as shown below .
As shown in blue is how we calculated the short circuit current , but in your case you...
A little different experience .
Keeping motor warm : Normally we have 1 year gap between design stage and commissioning stage for offshore vessels , thus before commissioning the motors and generators are being dried out .
-A low voltage 3 phase AC is applied , low enough so that the shaft...
My questions are:
1)) Is there any issue with using a 4-5 hP motor with a VFD even though the calculated Auger power is much lower
There will no issues . I hope the VFD is rated for 5HP or 3.67 Kw.
2) My calculated Auger speed is 5 rpm; can I turn down the motor to 5 rpm using the VFD...
I agree with Skogsgurra , I have same experience , 0 HZ (6 motors , each 1500KW motor) just holding the load( holding the drill string from sea bed,standstill zero speed) , VFD worked fine no issues.
Thanks
Hi !!
In your motor I can imagine that , the DC supply is feed to an inverter out of which 3 phases will come out , thus a resistor (voltage divider ckt) can be placed
as shown in the photo calculate the voltage , and can ammeter be placed in series and thus V* I shall give you power consumed ...
Motor Insulation resistance yes in general when measured comes in the order of hundreds of meg-ohms.
But there can be a condition that due to mositure or motor not being in use for few days the insulation resistance goes down.
As per IEC 60364-6 for low voltage motors , @ 500/1000 V if the...
whatever .......all I can say if anybody dont like anybodys post or replies or comments then simply ignore or make it correct .
There is no need to play each others advocate.
What you have told may be true for LV system (480 V) , but certainly not the case with MV .
Who trips the breaker in first half cycle (10 milli seconds) , or in one cycle 20ms (50 Hz).
Also it is mechcanically not possible because the breaker takes about 50 to 60ms to open.
Thus a breaker with...
Hello Scotty thanks for the wonderful book , I am planning to read it over the weekend and then may contact you .
Hello Bill ...please see my replies in RED ....
Let me try to walk through your comments and questions.
The actual impedance is a machine characteristic and does not change...
Hello All ,
My idea is not to let anybody down , but just want to learn from you guys .
So , if you think I am wrong then please correct me , but please dont make fun , because
like generator I also have my " DAMAGE CURVE ".
Please find my views in red and there are some questions asked , if...
