T926: Lightning Positioning & Tracking System (LPATS) Measurements

A Lightning Positioning and Tracking System (LPATS) has been in operation in Quebec since September 1992. The system consists of measuring the arrival time of the electric field generated by the lightning flash at the receivers. Hydro-Québec has been contributing for several years now to a CEA research project (179 T 382) aimed at determining the lightning density across Canada using lightning flash counters.Fourteen counters installed at eleven different locations across Quebec will be

U460A: Plasma Reactor Development Project - The Production of Ferroalloys Using a Plasma Reactor

Abstract/Conclusions/Recommendations With some exceptions, preliminary screening of market opportunities for energy intensive materials concluded the commodities of interst to be those commonly referred to as major and minor steel additives.Little, if any, growth is expected in iron and steel production. Consequently, the prime market found to be of interest to this study is mature and well supplied - often highly over supplied. Of the four large volume iron and steel additives, the ferroalloys

D656: Development of Test to Predict the Performance of Separable Insulated Connectors

Volume 1: Final Report Statistical and probabilistic techniques have been used to define user expectations for separable insulated connectors (SICs) and to design ANSI/IEEE 386 Standard tests which produce outcomes that allow meaningful in-service performance assessments. The switching, fault closure and impulse tests of the present ANSI/IEEE 386 Standard were significantly revised. Less extensive revisions were developed for the short-time current test and the corona voltage test. Where signifi

D203: Development of a Standard High Temperature Textile Flammability Test Method

Utility workers can be exposed to an acute flananability hazard when they are working close to an arcing fault or flashover from electrical equipment or power lines. At the present time it is not possible to recommend the type of protective clothing that should be worn in these circumstances. This is because no standard flammability test method is available which measures the ability of textile fabrics and other laminae to provide heat and flammability protection against large heat fluxes origin

G440: Behavioural Systems to Guide/Direct Fish at Hydroelectric Facilities

Experiments were conducted in both the laboratory and field to determine the response of several riverine species of fish to selected behavioural systems which included light and sound devices. Species tested included coho salmon, chinook salmon, Atlantic salmon, rainbow trout and lake whitefish. As an alternative to mechanical means of diverting fish from turbine entries towards sluiceways or fish ladders, behavioural systems will be investigated. Using light and sound, such systems can be divi

G776: Selection of Economic Structure Type to Provide Upstream Regulation and Reduce Spill During Small Flood Events in Remote Locations

The purposes of this study are to review different types of structures which could be used for upstream self regulation in unattended remote locations; to develop guidelines for selecting the structure types most likely to be economic in such locations, given varying site conditions; to select suitable structure types for a site in Newfoundland using the guidelines; to estimate the costs and benefits in savings of spill for the selected structure types at the preferred location; and to recommend

T844: Use Of Cold-Formed Steel Sections for Transmission Towers In Canada

ABSTRACT A research project ws carried out at the Structural Engineering and Construction Research and Development Facility at The University of Manitoba in order to develop a guide for the design and fabrication of cold-formed sections for transmission structures. This project included static compression tests, tests to determine the magnitude and distribution of residual stresses, tests to study the galvanizing embrittlement problem, fatigue tests, and tests to define cold-temperature toughnes

T848: Geomagnetic Induced Currents: Assessment of Geomagnetic Hazard

The object of this study was to determine the occurrence of geomagnetic conditions which may lead to problems on power systems. Maximum rate of change of the magnetic field in each hour has been chosen as the most suitable indicator of geomagnetic hazard conditions. The occurrence frequency of different geomagnetic hazard levels has been analyzed using data from Canadian geomagnetic observatories for the years 1977 to 1989.

T836: Groundwater Infiltration by Herbicides

The factors affecting herbicide infiltration upon application on rights-of-way and on transformer stations by Canadian electrical utilities are discussed from the point of view of potential groundwater contamination. The assessment of herbicide migration is related to: (1) method and time of year of herbicide application, and dose applied, (2) herbicide properties, (3) herbicide/soil interaction, (4) transformation processes in soils, and (5) hydraulic properties of soils. After evaluation of ex
