Rotor inter-turn short-circuit is a common fault in generator and it is a research hotspot to identify the fault at its early stage. Considering the disadvantage of circuit analytical method, this paper establishes a 2D transient finite element electromagnetic-circuit coupling model, and calculates the magnetic field at normal and fault situations through the powerful post-processing function of ANSOFT, then magnetic flux density cloud pictures and air-gap magnetic flux density curves of different operating conditions are got. Using MATLAB to analyze and deal with the air-gap flux density cures, we can get the differences of faults in different levels and different positions, which provide a basis for further study of rotor inter-turn short-circuit fault.

The paper proposes a hybrid-excited wound field synchronous machine (HE-WFSM), which can achieve high reluctance torque utilization. The key of the proposed HE-WFSM is that two permanent magnets (PMs) assist each rotor pole in forming an additional magnetic flux circle. It is opposite to the magnetic flux circle along the q-axis in the WFSM. The reduction of the q-axis flux can help to improve the saliency ratio and reluctance torque. Additionally, the asymmetrical flux linkage achieves a closest current phase angle between the maximum field torque and the maximum reluctance torque. To highlight the advantages of the proposed HE-WRSM, a general WFSM was adopted as the basic machine and analyzed under the same operating conditions. All performances of the basic machine and proposed HE-WFSM were predicted using finite element analysis (FEA) in Jmag-Designer. Finally, it was confirmed that the proposed HE-WRSM can achieve high reluctance torque utilization.

The World Health Organization (WHO) warns that the presence of magnetic fields due to the circulation of industrial frequency electrical currents may have repercussions on the health of living beings. Hence, it is crucially important that we are able to quantify these fields under the normal operating conditions of the facilities, both in their premises and in their surroundings, in order to take the appropriate corrective measures and assure the safety conditions imposed, in force, by regulations. For this purpose, CRMag® software has been developed. Using the simplified Maxwell equations for low frequencies, CRMag® calculates and represents the magnetic flux density (MFD) that electrical currents produce in the environment. Users can easily model electrical facilities through a friendly and simple data entry. MFDs calculated by CRMag® have been validated in real facilities and laboratory tests. With this software, exposure levels can be studied in any hypothetical scenario, even in inaccessible zones. This allows designers to guarantee that legal limits (occupational, general population, or precautionary levels related to epidemiological studies) are fulfilled. A real case study has been described to show how the reconfiguration of conductors in a distribution transformer substation (DTS) allows significant reductions in MFD in some points outside the facility.

This paper describes the torque and magnetic flux analysis using an advanced dynamic dynamometer test bed for electromechanical motors. Test motor was tested under different levels of continuous loads and high bandwidth complex duty cycle loads in order to provide data to characterize the nonlinear properties of electric motors. The test bed to obtain torque saturation limit data is comprised of a servo motor which serves as a dynamic load emulator, a brake, a clutch, and full sensor array for comprehensive monitoring of test variables, (including magnetic flux density sensor). The magnetic flux test was conducted to discriminate magnetic saturation from torque saturation. Given the permanent magnet motor test system designed for a desired saturation limit, it is possible to predict saturation using a properly defined dynamic duty cycle norm as a function of the operating conditions and the actuator design parameters. In this paper, the temperature effects on the magnetic properties of the permanent magnet material were the principal objectives.

The Casino offshore pipeline required inspection to demonstrate the integrity of the pipeline and allow the operating life of the pipeline to be extended. There were numerous challenges in performing a conventional internal pipeline inspection which would have required diver operations to install and operate subsea pig launchers. Two alternative inspection methods were used to inspect the high priority sections of the pipeline, at the pipeline tees and in the horizontal directionally drilled (HDD) section of pipeline at the coastline crossing.The pipeline tees and well flowlines were inspected using an external magnetic flux inspection tool deployed by remotely operated vehicle (ROV), to test for top-of-line corrosion. Bi-directional pigging from the onshore valve station, offshore for 30 km using gas from the host gas plant and then return to the shore using gas from the offshore wells allowed for inspection of the HDD pipeline with a total of 10 bi-direction pig runs completed. The pig position was accurately predicted by monitoring the operating conditions of the pipeline and confirmed by displacement past the subsea well closest to shore (Casino 5). The novel pigging methods brought significant benefits for cost, schedule and reduced EHS exposure by avoiding diver operations. The cost of the overall inspection program was less than 25% of the conventional inspection methods and was achieved a year earlier than if a dive support vessel (DSV) had been mobilised. The bi-directional pigging campaign proved to be highly successful.

Extended AbstractWe have examined the morphological properties of a sigmoid associated with an SXR (soft X-ray) flare. The sigmoid is cospatial with the EUV (extreme ultra violet) images and in the optical part lies along an S-shaped Hαfilament. The photoheliogram shows flux emergence within an existingδtype sunspot which has caused the rotation of the umbrae giving rise to the sigmoidal brightening.It is now widely accepted that flares derive their energy from the magnetic fields of the active regions and coronal levels are considered to be the flare sites. But still a satisfactory understanding of the flare processes has not been achieved because of the difficulties encountered to predict and estimate the probability of flare eruptions. The convection flows and vortices below the photosphere transport and concentrate magnetic field, which subsequently appear as active regions in the photosphere (Rust & Kumar 1994 and the references therein). Successive emergence of magnetic flux, twist the field, creating flare productive magnetic shear and has been studied by many authors (Sundara Ramanet al.1998 and the references therein). Hence, it is considered that the flare is powered by the energy stored in the twisted magnetic flux tubes (Kurokawa 1996 and the references therein). Rust & Kumar (1996) named the S-shaped bright coronal loops that appear in soft X-rays as ‘Sigmoids’ and concluded that this S-shaped distortion is due to the twist developed in the magnetic field lines. These transient sigmoidal features tell a great deal about unstable coronal magnetic fields, as these regions are more likely to be eruptive (Canfieldet al.1999). As the magnetic fields of the active regions are deep rooted in the Sun, the twist developed in the subphotospheric flux tube penetrates the photosphere and extends in to the corona. Thus, it is essentially favourable for the subphotospheric twist to unwind the twist and transmit it through the photosphere to the corona. Therefore, it becomes essential to make complete observational descriptions of a flare from the magnetic field changes that are taking place in different atmospheric levels of the Sun, to pin down the energy storage and conversion process that trigger the flare phenomena.

AbstractPrecise measurements of heliographic position of solar filaments were used for determination of the proper motion of solar filaments on the time-scale of days. The filaments have a tendency to make a shaking or waving of the external structure and to make a general movement of whole filament body, coinciding with the transport of the magnetic flux in the photosphere. The velocity scatter of individual measured points is about one order higher than the accuracy of measurements.
