Abstract The relevance of the study is conditioned by the need to determine the state and residual life duration of high-voltage cable lines to identify faulty and maintainable cables. The aim of the article is to determine a reliable scientifically grounded criterion for assessment of insulation characteristics of the cables in use and to perform a comparative analysis of the results obtained by the traditional method of diagnosing insulation with the results of a new method of assessment by the return voltage. In this regard, the article deals with the issues related to the testing of cables having oil-impregnated paper insulation, as well as with the issue of switching from planned replacement of cables to assessment of their actual state and period of residual life. The authors propose to use the method of examining the cables by the return voltage using the device for testing electrical insulation “UDEI-1” developed at the department of Electrification and Automation of the Nizhny Novgorod State University of Engineering and Economics. The article presents the results of measuring the return voltage of three cables that operated under different conditions. The cables had different technical state. The analysis of the estimation of the residual life of cables by the return voltage was carried out using such criteria as the PIRV polarization index, the LIRV electrical conductivity index, and the P-factor. The P-factor is the physical criterion demonstrating the aging of paper-oil insulation by the shape of the return voltage curve. It represents such characteristics of insulation aging as moistening. To compare the results of testing the cables by the return voltage with the conventional methods of diagnostics and to determine the actual technical condition of power cables, the authors applied the method of spatiotemporal reflectometry and the method of measuring insulation resistance with the determination of such indicators of state as insulation resistance normalized per one kilometer, absorption coefficient, and polarization index. The results of this article confirm that the return voltage gives a qualitative assessment of the state and degree of aging of cables with impregnated paper insulation. The authors proposed a new system for evaluation of cable condition by weighting coefficients. In this approach, the determination of residual life of cables with impregnated paper insulation is based on the values of the return voltage. Application of the new system gives opportunity to improve reliability of the power lines. Recommendations for the further operation of the studied cables are given. The materials of the article are of practical value for carrying out complex assessment of the technical condition of power cables by the return voltage and can be useful for drawing up a schedule for replacement or repair of cable lines depending on their actual state.

The article deals with the issue of salt content in brick buildings, which plays an important role in the assessment of the technical condition, in particular of historic buildings. A question has been asked about the selection of the best research method to determine the salinity of mineral materials. To obtain the answer, the authors conducted some tests on ceramic bricks salted with seven types of salt solutions. Research methods such as: spectrophotometry (UV), ion chromatography (High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)), X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (XRF) and Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDS) were compared. The above methods belong to two groups: the first is based on aqueous extracts and allows the determination of water-soluble salts, and the second concerns testing directly on the sample so that insoluble salts can also be determined. The results tests indicate that the methods based on solid phases (XRF and EDS) give higher salinity values than those based on aqueous extracts (HPLC and UV). The results were also analysed with regard to the type of salt. Larger differences are observed for sulphate salts while chloride salts are characterised by smaller differences. On this basis, it is concluded that the salt content of the material is best assessed using tests that make it possible to recognise the salt in question and its quantity.

Complex remote monitoring and the developed non-contact diagnostic device (NDD) allow monitoring the technical condition and revealing the residual life of high-voltage dielectric elements. It is based on non-contact remote periodic measurement of a set of diagnostic parameters (characteristics of electrical discharges emitted by insulators during operation) necessary for a reliable assessment of the operating state of high-voltage dielectric equipment at the moment of operation and determination of its residual life. NDDs are installed on each phase conductor and used to measure diagnostic parameters, followed by computer processing of the accumulated information signals. An analysis of the set of necessary diagnostic parameters makes it possible to form a conclusion on the degree of performance of dielectric elements. The paper considers a method for detecting defective high-voltage insulators using the developed non-contact diagnostic devices by the radio frequency method and assessing the difference in time of arrival of a partial discharge signal.

Spark plugs utilizing a J-wire electrode are standard in most automotive engines and have been for decades. However, innumerable alternative spark plug designs have been introduced. This paper examines the potential benefit of one particular alternative electrode geometry in a high-performance automotive engine. The alternative spark plug that is investigated is a commercially available aftermarket unit. The testing included detailed analysis of both brake and indicated parameters including MEP and burn rates. Testing was conducted under both steady state and transient conditions, and encompassed multiple induction systems and test fuels including E85. The test engine was a commercially available high performance aftermarket engine assembly intended for motorsports. This paper includes the optimal settings for ignition timing and lambda and the process by which those values were determined. The combustion analysis shows the alternative spark plug electrode resulted in an increased early burn rate, which in turn lead to an overall advancing of the combustion phasing. To better decouple combustion phasing effects from test to test variation on brake output parameters, an empirical model is developed and exercised. The model describes the expected change in brake output resulting from the shift in combustion phasing induced by the alternative spark plug geometry.

The paper proposes an approach to determining the increase of the normative lifetime of building structures on the basis of the algorithm of numerical calculation of the residual life of structures, which is performed on the basis of the results of defining parameters obtained during the technical examination and evaluation of defects, failures and structural damage. To calculate the structures, the simulation of the stressstrain state of the building structures with the involvement of OK LIRA was used. Simulation allowed performing optimization of technical solutions and strengthening of structures for buildings. The methodology is used to design elements for strengthening the structures of buildings and structures. Reliable estimation and forecasting of the technical condition enables to prevent the occurrence of accidents of structures and their associated losses, to use rational use of funds for current and capital repairs, and to regulate the technical condition in such a way as to achieve the most effective use of fixed assets.
