Purpose. The paper analyzes the system and methods of starting synchronous electric motors of fans of the main ventilation of iron ore mines. It is concluded that it is necessary to modernize the method of starting a synchronous electric motor, despite the fact that the installed direct start-up system has a number of disadvantages, and negatively affects the energy indicators of the electromechanical complex of the main ventilation fan of mines. The priority direction in solving the complex of the above problems is the use of modern achievements in the field of semiconductor conversion technology, in terms of the development of effective circuits and methods for starting and controlling a synchronous electric drive. Originality. The method of separate regulation of size and frequency of output voltage of the multilevel converter of a clock at quasi-frequency start of the synchronous electric drive is offered, limits admissible values of starting currents to admissible values. Methodology. Simulation of transient processes of starting a synchronous electric motor with step-by-step changes in voltage and frequency of supply, which made it possible to determine the energy efficiency of this method. Result. A new method of starting with a step-by-step change in the voltage and frequency of a synchronous motor is proposed. The modeling of the proposed starting method for a synchronous electric motor with a fan torque on the motor shaft was carried out, while it allowed to get rid of the main drawback, namely, a large starting current and made it possible to increase the energy efficiency of the electromechanical complex of the main ventilation fans due to the fact that the consumed active energy during start-up will decrease approximately 50% compared to a direct starting system. Practical value. The proposed method and the obtained results of the study made it possible to prove that the effectiveness of the proposed method is very high and this will save most of the electrical energy when starting the fans of the main ventilation of iron ore mines.

It is impossible to imagine any modern mechanism in any field of technology that has not been driven by an automated electric drive. In the electric drive, the main element that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy is an electric motor, which is controlled by converters and control devices in order to form static and dynamic characteristics of the electric drive that meet the requirements of the production mechanism. Equipment for the production and use of compressed air is universal and safe, it is widely used in modern industry. Compressed air is used as a source of energy, a medium for cleaning (purging), a means of transportation and even as a source of cold. Air compressors make up more than 80% of the total compressor fleet. Compressed air production and distribution systems in industry consume up to 10% of electricity. Unfortunately, there is an opinion that compressed air is cheap, although only 5-10% of the consumed electricity is spent on useful mechanical work. The cost of producing compressed air is 5-15% of the cost of production, and for some industries reach 30% or more. Reciprocating, centrifugal, and in recent years screw compressors have been widely used as air compression machines. In agricultural production, compressors are used to supply air and gases of the main or by-products of the technological cycle. These machines are common in gas supply systems. Compressors are also widely used in gas turbines. The laboratory stand for research of the piston compressor is modernized. On the basis of technical and economic indicators the electric drive system is selected, the electric motor is calculated and selected, it is checked with heating, overload capacity and start-up conditions, characteristics in statistical and dynamic modes are investigated, and also electric schemes of SAEP of the main lifting mechanism are developed. To verify the correctness of the adopted design methods, modeling was performed in Matlab.

The author showed that it was possible to reduce the exhaust gases toxicity and increase tractors effi ciency using an electric power unit to implement traction. The effi ciency of modern electric motors was at its peak of 96 percent, compared to 45 for a diesel engine. He emphasized that this parameter for modern sources of electrical energy was 85-90 percent, which opened up opportunities for the implementation of an electric tractor.(Research purpose) To present the general concept of an electric drive power unit for a tractor of a small traction class and to evaluate its parameters as a fi rst approximation.(Materials and methods) For the tractor’s electric drive lithium-ion batteries were chosen as a source of electrical energy, showing the best characteristics of energy intensity – 432-864 kilojoule per kilogram with a unit cost of 4200-17400 rubles per kilogram. During the analyses of the power unit drive types, a D-120 diesel engine with a power of 20 kilowatt, a DC electric motor and an asynchronous motor with similar parameters were studied. The VTZ-2032 tractor with a nominal tractive eff ort of 600 Newtons when working on stubble was taken as the basis for the calculation.(Results and discussion) The author determined the best indicators of the electric drive by the power characteristics fullness in the gears with a decrease in unit costs per kWh from 24 to 15-16 rubles.(Conclusions) The most effi cient engine was determined – a brushless DC electric motor. The author calculated that the specifi c cost of its energy was 1.5-1.8 times less than that of a diesel engine, and amounted to 15-27 rubles per kilowatt-hour with a maximum effi ciency of 95 percent. It was found that lithium-ion batteries would be the optimal solution for powering the electric drive. They were distinguished by a high specifi c energy consumption – 432-864 kilojoule per kilogram – and a low price per energy unit, amounting to 5-45 rubles per kilojoule.

This paper proposes a fast, decentralized method for self-aligning the carriers of a multiphase/multilevel converter operating on the basis of phase-shifted pulse width modulation or level-shifted pulse width modulation. In the proposed method, each cell of the converter synchronizes and updates simultaneously its own carrier angle or carrier level based on the information shared with its neighboring cell, such as its angle/level, its index number, and the total number of activated cells of the converter. Different from the conventional decentralized method (with basic and modified updating rules), which requires some conditions in terms of cell number and initial carrier angles to start up and operate properly, the proposed method can be applied to the system with any number of cells and does not require special conditions of initial carrier angles. Further, while the conventional method needs an iteration process to adjust the inter-carrier phase-shifts and can be applied only to a multiphase converter which uses phase-shifted pulse width modulation, the proposed method offers an accurate and fast alignment of phases (for phase-shifted pulse width modulation) or levels (for level-shifted pulse width modulation) and thus can be applied to both multiphase and multilevel converter types. The simulations and the experimental results are presented in detail to show the validity and the effectiveness of the proposed methods. Further, thorough simulations on multiphase converters with different number of cells also show that the proposed method is much faster than the conventional method in both configuration and reconfiguration processes, especially in case the system has a large number of cells.

This paper provides a characterization of the electrical energy consumption of agrifood industries located in the central region of Portugal that use refrigeration systems to ensure the food safety. The study is based on the result analysis of survey data and energy characteristics of the participating companies belonging to the following agrifood sectors: meat, dairy, horticultural, distribution and wine. Through the quantification of energy consumption of companies is possible to determine the amount of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions indexed to its manufacturing process. Comparing the energy and GHGs emissions indexes of companies of a sector and between sectors is possible to create reference levels. With the results of this work is possible to rating the companies in relation to reference levels of energy and GHGs emissions and thus promote the rational use of energy by the application of practice measures for the improvement of the energy efficiency and the reduction of GHGs emissions.
