On the development of a power quality benchmarking model
(IEEE, 2009)
The development of a Power Quality (PQ) Benchmarking model is presented. Practical results are discussed to motivate the need of adding value to recorded PQ data by means of benchmarking PQ performance. The importance, ...
Towards PQ regulation in Southern Africa
(IEEE, 2009)
This paper discuss the regulation of Power Quality (PQ) in Southern Africa from a user perspective
The application of modern technology in power quality management
(IEEE, 2009)
Little business integration of power quality management (PQM) is forthcoming amongst electrical utilities all over Southern Africa. Restricted access to proper information is the main reason. A integration of tools, ...
Issues in software development practices : A South African software practitioners’ viewpoint
(2009)
Software development is a process tasked with
the development of artefacts that are used to
implement organizational information systems.
Depending on the social, economical and
environmental setting, different ...
A comparative study on fault detection and correction techniques on active magnetic bearing systems
(IEEE-Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2007)
In this paper, the authors distinguish between three real-time fault detection, correction and identification schemes for vibration forces on the rotor of a rotational active magnetic bearing (AMB) system. Historical fault ...
Analysis of the porous structure of an annular pebble bed reactor
(Atomic Energy Society of Japan, 2009)
The global galerkin finite element method as applied to the 1d beam equation: a systems approach
(SAAM, 2006)
The paper focuses on the finite element solution of the fourth-order differential for an EulerBernoulli beam. In this approach the point point loads and concentrated moments are treated in a natural way as part of the ...
Using an effective viscosity to account for the effect of the walls on the pressure drop through an annular packed bed
(ASME, 2009)
The question arose whether the correlation for the pressure drop prescribed for cylindrical pebble bed reactors by the Nuclear Safety Commission (KTA) of Germany could still be applied to the proposed annular configuration ...
Accounting for porous structure in effective thermal conductivity calculations in a pebble bed reactor
(Atomic Energy Society of Japan, 2009)
Linear model of a closed three-shaft Brayton cycle
(IEEE, 2004)
A linear model of a closed three-shaft Brayton cycle is developed. The model is intended to give an understanding of the dominant dynamic behavior in a nuclear power system that utilizes a closed three-shaft Brayton cycle. ...
