A condition based reliability simulator framework based on a heuristic fault model
(NWU, 2018)There are significant concerns as well as remedial efforts by the SA Power Utility to improve the generation plant performance that showed a significant decline over the past number of years. There is general consensus on ... -
Condition monitoring analysis methods for electrical machines: a review
(SPC, 2018)This paper provides a review on condition monitoring analysis methods for electrical machines. An overview of condition monitoring is provided where online as well as offline monitoring is discussed. A section on vibration ... -
Condition monitoring thermal properties of a 20A hydraulic-magnetic MCB
(NWU, 2018)Heat is one of the major causes of degradation which can cause a reduction in performance, reliability and life span of miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) [1]. In order to diagnose the condition of electrical equipment, ... -
An energy-based approach to condition monitoring of industrial processes
(Elsevier, 2015)Condition monitoring has traditionally been deployed for the monitoring of a single component, such as a rotating electrical machine. The application of condition monitoring to an entire process plant has not yet received ... -
Energy-based fault detection for an autothermal reformer
(Elsevier, 2016)Condition monitoring has traditionally been deployed for the monitoring of a single component, such as a rotating machine. The application of condition monitoring techniques to entire petrochemical process plants, however, ... -
A low-cost condition monitoring solution for industrial bakery equipment
(NWU, 2018)Artisanal bakeries perform a critical function in many societies all over the world. However, artisanal bakers struggle to compete with commercial bakeries’ efficiencies due to the lack of technology deployment. One aspect ... -
A vision of energy-based visualisation of large scale industrial systems for the purposes of condition monitoring
(NWU, 2018)Most large scale industrial systems can be viewed as processes that convert energy from one form to another. Energy is a universal quality of which the distribution holds meaning across physical domains i.e. thermal-flu ...
