    Robust torque ripple mitigation of a line-start PMSM by means of the Taguchi method 

    Sorgdrager, A.J.; Grobler, A.J.; Wang, R.-J. (IEEE, 2019)
    —In this paper, a robust design framework is proposed to mitigate torque ripple for line-start permanent magnet synchronous machines (LS-PMSM) by using the Taguchi method. The framework is intended for fine-tuning initial ...

    Comparative study of steam vs hot water as primary heat transfer medium for a laboratory scale two-tank heated system 

    Oberholzer, P.Z.; Uren, K.R.; Van Schoor, G.; Van Niekerk, W. (IEEE, 2019)
    The need exists for a benchmark multi-domain practical system that could emulate typical process faults for the purposes of condition monitoring. A proposition was made to develop a heated two-tank system, due to its ...

    Case study: the effects of a variable flow energy saving strategy on a deep-mine cooling system 

    Du Plessis, Gideon Edgar; Liebenberg, Leon; Mathews, Edward Henry (Elsevier, 2013)
    Cooling systems consume up to 25% of the total electricity used on deep level mines. These systems are integrated with the water reticulation system to provide chilled service water to the mine as well as cooling for mine ...

    The influence of design parameters on the occurrence of shielding in multi-electrode ESPs and its effect on performance 

    Arif, S.; Branken, D.J.; Everson, R.C.; Neomagus, H.W.J.P.; Arif, A. (Elsevier, 2018)
    A numerical model in which OpenFOAM® is used to model the electrostatic field resulting from corona discharge in single-channel wire-plate electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) was applied to systematically study the shielding ...

    A review of methods to predict the effective thermal conductivity of packed pebble beds, with emphasis on the near-wall region 

    De Beer, M.; Du Toit, C.G.; Rousseau, P.G. (Elsevier, 2018)
    The effective thermal conductivity is an important parameter that is representative of the overall heat transfer in a packed bed of spheres. It includes the effects of conduction through the solid material and contact areas ...
