Methodologies for Design-Oriented Electromagnetic Modeling of Planar Passive Power ProcessorsPrasai, Anish 15 August 2006 (has links)
The advent and proliferation of planar technologies for power converters are driven in part by the overall trends in analog and digital electronics. These trends coupled with the demands for increasingly higher power quality and tighter regulations raise various design challenges. Because inductors and transformers constitute a rather large part of the overall converter volume, size and performance improvement of these structures can subsequently enhance the capability of power converters to meet these application-driven demands. Increasing the switching frequency has been the traditional approach in reducing converter size and improving performance. However, the increase in switching frequency leads to increased power loss density in windings and core, with subsequent increase in device temperature, parasitics and electromagnetic radiation. An accurate set of reduced-order modeling methodologies is presented in this work in order to predict the high-frequency behavior of inductors and transformers.
Analytical frequency-dependent expressions to predict losses in planar, foil windings and cores are given. The losses in the core and windings raise the temperature of the structure. In order to ensure temperature limitation of the structure is not exceeded, 1-D thermal modeling is undertaken. Based on the losses and temperature limitation, a methodology to optimize performance of magnetics is outlined.
Both numerical and analytical means are employed in the extraction of transformer parasitics and cross-coupling. The results are compared against experimental measurements and are found to be in good accord. A simple near-field electromagnetic shield design is presented in order to mitigate the amount of radiation.
Due to inadequacy of existing winding technology in forming suitable planar windings for PCB application, an alternate winding scheme is proposed which relies on depositing windings directly onto the core. / Master of Science

Damper Winding Fault Detection in Synchronous MachinesHolmgren, Fredrik January 2016 (has links)
This thesis aims to identify methods for detection of damper winding faults in synchronous machines (SMs) powered by variable frequency drives (VFDs). The problem of failing damper windings has received attention after reports of serious damage which have been discovered during maintenance checks. Since SMs often are used for critical applications, failures can be devastating if they cause total breakdowns. Also, VFDs are believed to cause additional stress in the damper windings of SMs and since the utilisation of VFDs is increasing, the problem is expected to become more common in the future. Currently, there is no method for detection of failures during normal operation of SMs, thus research in the area is required. Simulations based on the finite element method as well as laboratory experiments have been performed in order to examine the impact of VFDs and to find a way of detecting damper winding failures. The results confirm that utilization of VFDs produce higher currents in the damper winding compared to direct-online operation. The results also show that in case of a damper bar failure, the current distribution among the damper winding segments is affected. However, monitoring of all damper winding segments is unrealistic due to the number of sensors required. Another approach, which has been investigated, involves monitoring of the current through the pole interconnectors of one of the endrings. Potential fault indicators have been found by analysing the currents in the frequency domain. However, further studies are required in order to evaluate the method. Also the temperature of the damper winding was investigated as an indicator.

[en] DIGITAL MICROSCOPY AND IMAGE ANALYSIS FOR THE CHARACTERIZATION OF FILAMENT WOUND COMPOSITE PIPES / [pt] MICROSCOPIA DIGITAL E ANÁLISE DE IMAGENS PARA CARACTERIZAÇÃO DE TUBOS COMPÓSITOS FABRICADOS POR ENROLAMENTO FILAMENTARJULIA GOMES AZARA DE OLIVEIRA 28 October 2008 (has links)
[pt] Tubos de material compósito - matriz polimérica reforçada
por fibra de vidro - fabricados pela técnica de enrolamento
filamentar, foram caracterizados através de microscopia
eletrônica digital e processamento de imagens. Três tubos
foram fabricados em equipamento próprio seguindo parâmetros
de enrolamento similar. Um tubo comercial fabricado por
empresa especializada, com parâmetros de enrolamento mais
complexos, também foi caracterizado. Para tal, seções
circunferenciais foram observadas em um microscópio
eletrônico de varredura com captura digital de imagem.
Mosaicos de imagens foram gerados, permitindo
obter informação com boa resolução local e,
simultaneamente, grande abrangência
espacial. Assim, foi possível realizar uma caracterização
que abrangia desde o tamanho e forma de fibras individuais
até a distribuição espacial de milhares de
fibras em uma vasta área da amostra. Foram cridas rotinas
de processamento e análise de imagens para medir dados como
diâmetro, fator de forma, fração volumétrica e ângulo de
enrolamento de fibras. Além disso, uma rotina específica
foi desenvolvida para a identificação automática das várias
camadas de fibras presentes no tubo comercial. / [en] Pipes made from composite material - polymer matrix

complex winding
conditions, was also characterized. Circumferential
sections were observed in a
scanning electron microscope with digital image
acquisition. Image mosaics were
created, providing information with good spatial resolution
and, at the same time,
wide spatial coverage. Thus, it was possible to
characterize size and shape of
individual fibers and, simultaneously, obtain the spatial
distribution of thousands
of fibers within a large sample area. Image processing and
analysis routines were
created to measure fiber diameter, shape factor, area

A specific routine was developed for the automatic

Implementing VLF as diagnostic test for HV motors and generators : A comparative study of diagnostic tests performed at different frequenciesHedlund, Niklas January 2019 (has links)
High voltage testing of the stator winding insulation is one of the most recognized methods used to determine the state of degradation in the insulation. HV tests performed at 0.1 Hz do have potential advantages compared to more traditional 50 Hz tests. This thesis therefore aims to perform and compare tan delta, capacitance and partial discharge measurements on stator windings when using a 0.1 Hz voltage source and a more traditional 50 Hz voltage supply. Several associated test parameters with considerable influence on the test results were varied during the tests. An associated data analysis followed that was focused on the differences and similarities of the analyzed parameters and the results due to the differences in frequency. The results show that there are substantial levels of noise present in the partial discharge measurements when utilizing the VLF voltage source. There are also more numerous partial discharges for VLF measurements than for regular power frequency measurements if the same amount of voltage cycles is considered. The generated patterns show similarities with those generated at 50 Hz, but a larger sample base is probably needed for more thorough conclusions. The tan delta/capacitance part of the test do indicate potential advantages compared to power frequency measurements regarding the sensitivity in the measurements.

Previous issue date: 2007-01-19 / Fillers are often added in composites to enhance performance and/or to reduce cost. Fiberglass pipes must meet performance requirements and industrial sand is frequently added for the pipe to be cost competitive. The sand is added to increase pipe wall thickness, thus increase pipe stiffness.
The main goal of the present work is to conduct an experimental investigation between pipes fabricated with and without de addition of sand, to be used in the petroleum industry. Pipes were built using E-glass fibers, polyester resin and siliceous sand. The fabrication process used hand lay up and filament winding and was divided in two different parts: the liner and the structural wall. All tested pipes had the same liner, but different structural wall composition, which is the layer where siliceous sand may be added or not.
The comparative investigation was developed considering the results of longitudinal tensile tests, hoop tensile tests, hydrostatic pressure leak tests and parallel-plate loading stiffness tests. SEM was used to analyze if the sand caused any damage to the glass fibers, during the fabrication process, because of the fiber-sand contact. The procedure was also used to verify the composite conditions after the hydrostatic pressure leak test. The results proved that the addition of siliceous sand reduced the leak pressure in about 17 %. In the other hand, this loss in pressure was compensated by a stiffness increment of more than 380 %. MEV analyses show that it is possible to find damage on the fiber-sand contact, but on a very small amount. On most cases, the contact occurs without damage evidences.
In summary, the addition of sand filler represented a 27.8 % of cost reduction, when compared to a pipe designed with glass fiber and resin only. This cost reduction combined to the good mechanical tests results make siliceous sand filler suitable for fiberglass pressure pipes / Cargas de adi??o s?o utilizadas com freq??ncia, em materiais comp?sitos, para atingir propriedades mec?nicas requeridas por normas e para redu??o de custos. As tubula??es em pl?stico refor?ado com fibras de vidro (PRFV), utilizadas para aplica??es com altas press?es, devem atender a requisitos m?nimos de projeto estabelecidos em normas. Para tanto, a areia vem sendo utilizada como carga de adi??o, no sentido de manter os tubos em PRFV competitivos no mercado. A areia ? adicionada para aumentar a espessura da parede, aumentando com isso a rigidez. Este trabalho teve como principal objetivo analisar a influ?ncia da areia nas propriedades mec?nicas de tubula??es de PRFV, visando sua aplica??o na ind?stria do petr?leo e do g?s, atrav?s de ensaios comparativos entre tubos com e sem a adi??o de areia. Os tubos foram fabricados com fibras de vidro tipo E na forma de fios cont?nuos e manta, resina poli?ster ortoft?lica e areia quartzosa. A fabrica??o foi realizada em duas etapas distintas, sendo a primeira camada do tubo denominada de barreira qu?mica (processo de lamina??o manual) e a segunda camada denominada estrutura (fabricada pelo processo de filamento cont?nuo). A areia ? adicionada no tubo juntamente com as camadas de filamento cont?nuo e, portanto, ? um constituinte da estrutura do tubo. A an?lise comparativa foi conduzida atrav?s de ensaios de tra??o axial e ircunferencial, press?o hidrost?tica e rigidez, al?m de an?lises com microsc?pio eletr?nico de varredura (MEV). Foram avaliadas as for?as resultantes de ruptura e o m?dulo de elasticidade circunferencial, al?m da rigidez. As an?lises com MEV foram conduzidas para verificar a presen?a de danos causados as fibras, durante o processo de fabrica??o, e para verificar as condi??es do laminado ap?s os ensaios de press?o hidrost?tica. Os resultados mostraram que a adi??o de areia causou uma redu??o na press?o de ruptura do tubo de 17 %. Por?m esta perda foi compensada pelo grande acr?scimo na rigidez que foi da ordem de 380 % . As an?lises no MEV mostraram que ocorrem danos durante o processo de fabrica??o, mas em quantidades muito pequenas. Na maioria dos casos o contato areia/fibras ocorre sem evid?ncias de danos. Em resumo, a areia representa uma redu??o de 27,8 % no custo final do tubo, que somado aos bons resultados obtidos nos ensaios mec?nicos, faz deste material uma excelente op??o de carga de adi??o para tubula??es de PRFV utilizadas com altas press?es

Caractérisation des structures composites bobinées épaisses, application à l’étude du comportement de réservoirs de stockage d’hydrogènePilato, Aurélie 09 December 2011 (has links)
Ce travail de thèse s'est déroulé dans le cadre du programme H2E (Horizon Hydrogène Énergie) piloté par Air Liquide et en partenariat industriel avec Composites Aquitaine. Le stockage d’hydrogène sous forme gazeuse impose que les réservoirs bobinés en composite carbone/époxy utilisés résistent à des pressions internes en service allant de 350 à 700bar.L’état de l’art montre que le procédé d’enroulement filamentaire et son application à des épaisseurs de matériaux composites importantes peuvent générer des variations, dans l’épaisseur, des contraintes résiduelles d’origine thermique, de la teneur en fibres et en porosités et de l’épaisseur des couches. Ces hétérogénéités peuvent alors être à l’origine de modifications des propriétés mécaniques du composite. Notre travail s’est donc appuyé sur la caractérisation physico-chimique à l’échelle des constituants (mesure de températures, nano-indentation, analyse d’images et microtomographie) ainsi que la caractérisation mécanique à l’échelle de la couche de référence mais également à l’échelle de la structure (essais plans spécifiques sur éprouvettes bobinés et essais hors-plan).Les hétérogénéités de la matière ainsi identifiées sur le réservoir ont été intégrées dans un modèle de calcul analytique permettant d'étudier leurs influences sur sa pression d'éclatement. La conception d'un essai de mise sous pression interne d'un anneau a par ailleurs permis de vérifier le comportement mécanique de la structure réelle. / This PhD work was conducted in the H2E (Horizon Hydrogen Energy) program coordinated by Air Liquide and with the industrial partnership of Composites Aquitaine. The hydrogen storage under gaseous form needs the filament-wound carbon/epoxy composite vessels used to resist to service pressures between 350 to 700bar.The influences of the process and of the thickness of the structure on its mechanical behaviour were determined by precise bibliographic work and were supposed to generate thermal residual stresses and also to be responsible of variations in the thickness and fibre content of the plies. These heterogeneities could modify the mechanical properties of the composite material. Our work focuses, first of all, on the physical chemistry characterization at the constituents scale (temperature measurement, nano-indentation, image analysis and microtomography) and then on the mechanical characterization of the reference ply and also of the structure (dedicated tests on filament-wound samples and out-of-plane tests).The material heterogeneities identified on the vessel were integrated in an analytical calculation model to study their influences on its burst pressure. The development of an internal pressure test allows us to verify the global mechanical behaviour of the real structure.

Neural classifier aplied in stator winding inter-turn short circuit in three-phase induction motors driven by frequency converter / Classificadores neurais aplicados na detecÃÃo de curto-circuito entre espiras estatÃricas em motores de induÃÃo trifÃsicos acionados por conversores de frequÃnciaÃtila GirÃo de Oliveira 23 May 2014 (has links)
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / This dissertation reports applications of artificial neural networks to detect stator winding interturn fault of three phase induction motor drived by frequency inverter. The artificial neural networks, like Simple and Multilayer Perceptron, served as off-line classifiers to short-circuit fault condition or healthy condition. In the training
of Multilayer Perceptron, two different algorithms are used: the error back-propagation, which is a classic algorithm, and the extreme learning machine, as a relative new alternative for the classic back-propagation. The new one is more worthwhile because of its implementation easiness and higher speed of computation. The database used on the training and validation of the networks is created from an experimental setting, therefore it is composed by true data. The attributes used as failuresâ indicators are selected from certain frequencies of the spectrum, based on some theories of current signature analysis. In the second instance, the technique of principal components analysis is employed. The results obtained for the designed classifiers are shown, and some considerations are made on their use in real time embedded applications, which is the most important projection for future researches. / Este trabalho deriva da aplicaÃÃo de redes neurais artificiais para a detecÃÃo de curto-circuito entre espiras em motor de induÃÃo trifÃsico, acionado por inversor de frequÃncia. As redes neurais artificiais, do tipo Perceptron Simples e Multicamadas, sÃo usadas para detectar falhas de curto-circuito no bobinamento
estatÃrico de motores de induÃÃo trifÃsicos de forma off-line. Para treinamento do
Perceptron Multicamadas sÃo usados dois algoritmos distintos: o error back-propagation, que figura como o algoritmo clÃssico na literatura especializada, e o
extreme learning machine, que à uma alternativa, relativamente recente, ao algoritmo clÃssico. Este algoritmo à uma opÃÃo atraente para o desenvolvimento rÃpido de classificadores. O banco de dados usado para treinamento e validaÃÃo das redes à obtido a partir de experimentaÃÃo laboratorial, portanto composto de dados reais. Os atributos utilizados para a detecÃÃo da falha sÃo componentes de frequÃncia do espectro harmÃnico da corrente estatÃrica do motor. O critÃrio de escolha destas componentes, a priori, à fundamentado em resultados de investigaÃÃes prÃvias da assinatura de corrente e, em segunda instÃncia, à aplicada a tÃcnica de anÃlise de componentes principais.
SÃo apresentados os resultados obtidospelos classificadores projetados, e feitas algumas consideraÃÃes quanto à utilizaÃÃo destes em aplicaÃÃo embarcada e em tempo real, que à a principal projeÃÃo de futuros trabalhos a partir do atual.

Étude de la durabilité d'un matériau composite bobiné sous chargements sévères / Study of the durability of a wound composite material under severe loadsCrozatier, Mathilde 13 April 2017 (has links)
Les matériaux composites sont très étudiés depuis des décennies. En effet, l'alliance entre légèreté et résistance de ces structures entraîne le développement de leur utilisation. Leur caractérisation reste un point essentiel dans la plupart des études.Ce travail s’inscrit dans le projet Sollicitern qui vise à concevoir un camion d’hydrocurage en matériaux composites, financé par un fond unique interministériel. L’objectif est d’étudier la durabilité du matériau composite retenu sous chargements sévères. Elle permettra ainsi d’alimenter les modèles numériques des partenaires industriels afin d’ajuster les paramètres pour l’optimisation de la citerne et également d’estimer sa durée de vie face à ces diverses sollicitations.Dans un premier temps, l’attention se porte sur l’intégration de la courbure de la structure et donc du matériau dans l’étude. En effet, ce dernier est fabriqué par enroulement filamentaire, ce qui génère nécessairement une structure tubulaire. Dans un second temps, une caractérisation statique est menée. Cette partie comporte notamment des essais de compression radiale sur l’ensemble de la structure tubulaire où un protocole expérimental est mis en œuvre. En couplant les résultats de ces essais avec ceux d’une simulation numérique reproduisant l’essai, les propriétés élastiques du pli unidirectionnel sont accessibles grâce à une optimisation. Dans un troisième et dernier temps, la durabilité plus spécifique est abordée. Des campagnes d’essais de fatigue, d’impacts, d’usure et de vieillissement sont tout d’abord réalisées indépendamment les unes des autres. L’objectif final est de coupler ces différentes sollicitations et d’appréhender ainsi leur effet combiné. / Composites materials have been studied for decades. Indeed, the association between lightness and resistance of these structures leads to the development of their use. Their characterization remains an essential point in most researches.This work is part of Sollicitern project, which aims to design a composite water treatment truck, financed by a single interministerial fund. The aim is to study the durability of the composite material retained under severe loads. It thus offers tools to industrialists for adjusting parameters in the tank optimization and the estimation of the lifetime under these various loadings.In the first stage, attention is focused on the integration of the curvature of the structure and therefore of the material in the study. Indeed, it is manufactured by filament winding, which necessarily generates a tubular structure. In a second step, a static characterization is carried out. This part includes, in particular, radial compression tests on the whole tubular structure where an experimental protocol is developed. By coupling the results of these tests with a numerical simulation reproducing the test, the elastic properties of the unidirectional ply are obtained by optimization. In a third and final stage, more specific durability is discussed. Fatigue, impact, wear and aging tests are first carried out independently of one another. The final objective is to associate these different loadings and thus to apprehend their combined effect.
