0138: Primer on Power Plant Asset Management

Power plant asset management is a very broad subject encompassing many seemingly unrelated topics. One important component of any asset management plan is the programed application of the various condition assessment technologies available to the asset manager. Whether on the micro or macro level, the proper management of a power generation asset begins with a condition assessment of the component, equipment, or unit in question. The various technologies or “tools” available provide

7004: Reduction of Energy Cost in Canadian Pulp and Paper Processes

A simulation study was carried out to examine the synergies between water use reduction and energy use reduction at a Canadian kraft market pulp mill. In Phase One of this work, energy saving opportunities without significant water reduction were identified using several techniques. The efficiency of individual processes was also evaluated. An examination of the mill's steam and power generation, estimated fuel costs, and seasonal variations indicated the amount of process steam that could poten

3707: Recommended Grounding Practices: Determine Causal Factors of and Resolve Bolt Failures in Concrete Poles

This research project investigated the root cause of premature steel bolt degradation in concrete poles and identified the best practices for grounding concrete poles to mitigate degradation of steel bolts and/or reinforcing steel bars (rebar). The report recommends techniques for grounding existing and new concrete pole installations, with the objective of eliminating the flow of electric current through the steel bolts and rebar. The report is based on operating experience of GLIG member utili

3061: Methanol: A New Marker for Paper Ageing

This report describes the correlation between the chemical markers dissolved in oil with the degree of cellulose polymerization from real transformers; these samples were collected when the transformers were scrapped. Methanol, a new maker that is directly generated with the scission of the cellulosic bond, is included in this study. The author also presents the correlation for other markers such as 2-furfuraldehyde (2-FAL) and carbon oxides for the eight cases reported here. As in the laborator

3027: MV and HV Air Break Disconnect Switch Arc Reach Study

Air break disconnect switches are normally used to provide visible isolation of electrical equipment that has been switched off potential by other means. These switches have limited capability to interrupt current and voltage that can be efficiently and safely exploited by utilities. However, the evaluation of this capability has been constrained for many years by models based on limited test results carried out in the 1950s. An industry survey establishes existing practices and develops a nu

30138: Gas Insulated Substations: Design, Commissioning and Maintenance Practices

A Gas Insulated Substation (GIS) is a High Voltage substation in which the major structures are contained in a sealed environment with mostly sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas as the insulating medium. The clearance required for phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground for all equipment is much lower than that needed for an air-insulated substation (AIS).Faced with increasing demands for reliability, improved aesthetics, and security, the adoption of GIS by utilities is rapidly growing. There is presently

0530D: Biomass Torrefaction Evaluation Program - Phase 2

REPORT No. T132700-0530D-1 GRINDING OF WOODY BIOMASS - ARBAFLAME TECHNOLOGYPilot scale testing for grinding of woody biomass was conducted in a VR mill. The VR Mill is a medium speed vertical spindle pulverizer, similar to the Raymond® Bowl Mill used for coal grinding. The testing material was a steam exploded wood pellet provided by Arbaflame Technology (Matrand, Hedmark, Norway). Bowl mill performance in grinding these biomass materials was investigated in terms of mill throughput and powe
