Development of the control and automation system for mini hydro turbinesSchmutz, Werner Frederich January 1995 (has links)
Thesis (MTech(Electrical Engineering))--Cape Technikon, Cape Town,1995 / This thesis describes the research, development and design of one of the
most modern generic control and automation system for mini Hydro turbines
available in the world.
Special emphasis is placed on the Man machine interface. A concept of total
dynamic plant and data status representation was pursued. To achieve this,
a large amount of graphical animation was incorporated into the design.
The end product was to be the most economical and cost effective
implementable design available , yet providing the most modern functions
and features available in the world market.
The system was developed and researched to be generic and applicable to
any small Hydro plant. The design can thus be implemented on any suitable
PLC and SCADA system and is not dependant on any specific manufactures
hardware or software. The main emphasis is laid on functional capability of
the design.
Utilising this design standard would virtually cut the cost of engineering
associated with the design of a Hydro control system by 90%. The design
and engineering costs related to a Hydro automation project could typically
exceed R 100 000 a for small Hydro plant as this scheme.
