Book Engineering Condition Monitoring

Download or read book Engineering Condition Monitoring written by Ron Barron and published by Prentice Hall. This book was released on 1996 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maintenance can account for an extremely large proportion of the operating costs of machinery. Additionally, the downtime caused by machine breakdowns can severely affect the productivity of factories or the safety of products. Thus, it is becoming increasingly important for companies to consider the monitoring of their equipment 'in situ' in order to reduce the number of breakdowns experienced and to avoid the unnecessary cost and delay caused by repairs. Engineering Condition Monitoring provides an overview of all aspects of this important technique paying special attention to the vibration analysis of rotating machines. The text will be suitable for industrial practitioners and managers along with postgraduate students involved in mechanical and manufacturing engineering. The authors have used their vast collective experience both in industry and as academic teachers to produce a broad, descriptive text, concentrating on practical aspects, that will be invaluable to anyone involved in the operation or sub-contracting of condition monitoring methods.

Book Recent Trends in the Condition Monitoring of Transformers

Download or read book Recent Trends in the Condition Monitoring of Transformers written by Sivaji Chakravorti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-10-21 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent Trends in the Condition Monitoring of Transformers reflects the current interest in replacing traditional techniques used in power transformer condition monitoring with non-invasive measures such as polarization/depolarization current measurement, recovery voltage measurement, frequency domain spectroscopy and frequency response analysis. The book stresses the importance of scrutinizing the condition of transformer insulation which may fail under present day conditions of intensive use with the resulting degradation of dielectric properties causing functional failure of the transformer. The text shows the reader how to overcome the key challenges facing today’s maintenance policies, namely: The selection of appropriate techniques for dealing with each type of failure process accounting for the needs of plant owners, plant users and wider society; and Cost-efficiency and durability of effect. Many of the failure-management methods presented rely on the fact that most failures give warning when they are imminent. These potential failures give rise to identifiable physical conditions and the novel approaches described detect them so that action can be taken to avoid degeneration into full-blown functional failure. This “on-condition” maintenance means that equipment can be left in service as long as a specified set of performance standards continue to be met, avoiding the costly downtime imposed by routine and perhaps unnecessary maintenance but without risking equally expensive failure. Recent Trends in the Condition Monitoring of Transformers will be of considerable interest to both academic researchers in power systems and to engineers working in the power generation and distribution industry showing how new and more efficient methods of fault diagnosis and condition management can increase transformer efficiency and cut costs.

Book Electric Machines

Download or read book Electric Machines written by Hamid A. Toliyat and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With countless electric motors being used in daily life, in everything from transportation and medical treatment to military operation and communication, unexpected failures can lead to the loss of valuable human life or a costly standstill in industry. To prevent this, it is important to precisely detect or continuously monitor the working condition of a motor. Electric Machines: Modeling, Condition Monitoring, and Fault Diagnosis reviews diagnosis technologies and provides an application guide for readers who want to research, develop, and implement a more effective fault diagnosis and condition monitoring scheme—thus improving safety and reliability in electric motor operation. It also supplies a solid foundation in the fundamentals of fault cause and effect. Combines Theoretical Analysis and Practical Application Written by experts in electrical engineering, the book approaches the fault diagnosis of electrical motors through the process of theoretical analysis and practical application. It begins by explaining how to analyze the fundamentals of machine failure using the winding functions method, the magnetic equivalent circuit method, and finite element analysis. It then examines how to implement fault diagnosis using techniques such as the motor current signature analysis (MCSA) method, frequency domain method, model-based techniques, and a pattern recognition scheme. Emphasizing the MCSA implementation method, the authors discuss robust signal processing techniques and the implementation of reference-frame-theory-based fault diagnosis for hybrid vehicles. Fault Modeling, Diagnosis, and Implementation in One Volume Based on years of research and development at the Electrical Machines & Power Electronics (EMPE) Laboratory at Texas A&M University, this book describes practical analysis and implementation strategies that readers can use in their work. It brings together, in one volume, the fundamentals of motor fault conditions, advanced fault modeling theory, fault diagnosis techniques, and low-cost DSP-based fault diagnosis implementation strategies.
