No need to replace your generatorIndustry practice has always dictated that increased power output requires generator replacement. However, through extensive innovation, research and development, BRUSH has developed an alternative response to this challenge which eliminates the need to replace your generator.

In fact, we can boost the power output of your BRUSH generator by as much as 23%* when we replace your conventional rotor with a radially-cooled version. Furthermore, when this procedure is combined with an upgrade to the heat exchanger, power can potentially be increased by an outstanding 35%*. The increased output occurs because a radially-cooled rotor improves the airflow through the rotor windings, allowing for increased rating of the generator.

The table below shows some of the BRUSH generator models that can benefit from a power output upgrade.

POWER OUTPUTUPGRADE – GENERATORS WITH CONVENTIONALLY COOLED 2-POLE ROTORS

CASE STUDY:Statoil Norne FPSO

Problem: Statoil wanted to increase power output without incurring the expense and downtime of replacing their existing BRUSH generators.

BRUSH Performance Upgrade: BRUSH replaced the existing conventional rotor with a radially- cooled version, resulting in a 23% rise in available power output and by combining this with an upgrade to the heat exchanger a further 12% was achieved to give an overall increase in potential power output of 35%. Now Statoil only use the upgraded generator, keeping the second on standby for planned outages and unscheduled events. In addition, Statoil benefit from greater flexibility and more power.

ENHANCED SYSTEMS FOR ENHANCED PERFORMANCE

* Subject to design evaluation by BRUSH’S highly experienced team of dedicated generator engineers

The PRISMIC® A50 excitation system delivers unsurpassed levels of power and flexibility. This makes it ideal for hydro-electric, coal, steam, gas and nuclear power plants, plus it’s equally suited to synchronous motors and condensers. The PRISMIC® A50 is also suitable for new installations, and it lets you upgrade outdated equipment without incurring the cost and downtime of installing a complete new system.

The PRISMIC® A50’s strikingly compact and elegant design requires few additional components, allowing for a control panel design that’s both simple to use and easy to maintain. In addition, the A50 comes with all the necessary firmware and application logic, so a microsystem or programmable logic controller is not required.

The PRISMIC® A50 boosts performance in several key areas:

SynchronizationYou can synchronize generators to a power distribution system which can replace conventional stand-alone synchronizers.

InterfacingAdvanced digital technology allows for distributed control, high-speed parameter setting and remote diagnostics.

RegulationSecure the stable regulation of synchronous machines in a variety of operating modes – in both steady-state and transitional conditions.

PRISMIC® A50 EXCITATION SYSTEM UPGRADE Problem: Demanding environmental

requirements – in particular, compliance with LCPD (Large Combustion Plant Directive) 2 – demanded an upgrade of the digital excitation system at E.ON’s Ratcliffe-on-Soar Power Station. High reliability and dependable support were both essential to the successful completion of this project.

BRUSH Performance Upgrade: BRUSH fitted the PRISMIC® A50,taking just 14 weeks to manufacture, test and deliver the product, which successfully met every requirement.

BRUSH electrical engineers installed and commissioned the system, providing flexible site support and gaining site acceptance from the National Grid.

MAKE THE COMPETITIVE DIFFERENCE TO YOUR BUSINESS

For dramatic dirt contamination reduction The BRUSH GMS PPV (Positive Pressure Vent) upgrade significantly reduces dirt contamination, whilst also reducing the potential hazard of hydrogen ingress. Lacking external blowers and motors, the BRUSH GMS PPV gives a passive upgrade to the existing exciter housing. Many BRUSH customers undergoing an initial PPV upgrade have returned to us for additional unit upgrades because of the many benefits that such a procedure can bring.

Dirt contamination – affecting brushless exciters Dirt contamination is a common problem for brushless exciters, with unfiltered ambient air being ingested by the exciter fan to replenish air that leaks out of the exciter housing. Typical leakage areas include door seals, base seal and the shaft seal. Miscellaneous openings, which also contribute to dirt contamination, include those for entry of the cooling water piping, as well as oil piping, electrical wiring and conduit into the housing.

Make-up air vents – a major cause of dirt-laden air ingress

Adding to the problem of dirt ingress is the exciter’s ventilation scheme. There are three zones in the OEM brushless exciter – the fan, bearing and diode wheel zones; and because the make-up air vents are located in the diode wheel zone, it will inherently operate at negative pressure (below atmospheric pressure), providing a virtually unlimited opportunity for dirt-laden air to enter the exciter. The PPV upgrade reduces the rate of air exchange and provides a hydrogen-free exciter environment.

BRUSH GMS PPV – delivering an ideal solution

The BRUSH GMS PPV alleviates the problem of dirt ingress by providing manageable control of the make-up air and improved sealing of the various openings and penetrations into the housing zone. This results in a number of benefits:

—— Both the diode wheel and bearing zones operate with positive pressure

—— The fan zone is now the only area with negative pressure, so it’s the only zone in which make-up air can enter. This reduces the potential for air to enter the housing via the door, base and bulkhead interface seals by around 75%

—— With the potential for air entering the system limited to the fan zone, it is now possible to control air quality, whilst also minimizing the volume of make-up air via use of a properly designed filtration unit and improved sealing. The make-up air enters the filter unit, passes through the pre-filter and primary filter and then through a pressure-actuated flow control valve, which uses static pressure in the diode wheel zone to maintain approximately 1-inch water gauge

Improved compressionAs well as changing the air intake locations, the BRUSH GMS PPV completely strips the existing rubber seals throughout the housing and installs new seals. In addition, the doors are fitted with latches to provide greater seal compression, and all penetrations into the housing area are sealed as well. The housing is cleaned, re-assembled and then painted to match the existing color.

Reducing As an effective means of reducing dirt ingress into the OEM’s brushless exciters, the BRUSH GMS PPV offers the opportunity to reduce exciter maintenance and the risk of electrical failures arising from dirt accumulation on the electrical components. In addition, the PPV upgrade decreases the risk of hydrogen ingress.

BRUSH GMS PPV UPGRADE

At their power station in Centralia, Pennsylvania, USA, TransAlta initially requested a PPV upgrade on their No. 2 exciter, with highly beneficial results in air quality and considerable life extension to the unit. The benefits of the upgrade to their No. 2 exciter soon resulted in a request for a PPV upgrade on their No. 1 unit.

This typically demonstrates the trend that BRUSH have observed, whereby clients have a PPV upgrade performed on one exciter, observe the beneficial results – and then have the same process carried out on multiple units. Recently, NIPSCO and Mississippi Power have also undergone similar single unit/multiple unit procedures.

CASE STUDYTransAlta

As well as being available for BRUSH turbogenerators, these valuable upgrade solutions can also be fitted to third party products – making it even easier to take performance to a higher level.

Maximize the operational capabilities of your Power Management SystemYou want your Power Management System (PMS) to run smoothly 24-7, so you need top BRUSH support and maintenance plus premium-quality BRUSH products; and to ensure the best results for your PMS, our PRISMIC® product range is continuously upgraded and updated to include the very latest hardware and software innovations.

To maximize the operational life of your PMS, our engineers will begin by visiting your installation in order to assess your most cost-effective operational option. Where necessary, we’ll replace or repair any part with new components; but if this proves difficult or uneconomical (or when it’s more costly to run an older system than buy a replacement), we’ll recommend upgrading to the latest bespoke PRISMIC® system via a seamless,trouble-free process.

Greater efficiencyUpgrade capabilities have been factored in to the design process of all our products. For example, to minimize changeout duration and disruption, we’ve retained the 19" rack format for our processors and I/O cards so that minimal upgrade panel re-wiring is required – and, in most cases we can replace the existing rack without metalwork modifications. We’ve also developed interface converter boards that allow conversion from original terminals to new high-density I/O boards, dramatically reducing the need for wiring changes.

Enhanced performance Once you’ve had a BRUSH PMS upgrade, you’ll benefit from a dramatic increase in operational capability, thanks to improved features and additional functionality arising from new processors and components. With old or obsolete components eliminated, you’ll have minimized the risk of irrepairable faults or time-consuming failures. Moreover, with the latest software compilers and techniques integral to your installation, you’ll enjoy improved support from engineers who can provide faster responses to site issues.

PSe SPECIFICATION

High-tech, high-performance, low-risk, low-costThe latest networked PRISMIC® PMS uses multiple 32bit Intel low-power ARM-based processors to run its core control algorithms. This 500MHz RISC-based machine is specifically designed for industrial Ethernet applications and combines significant processing power with high network throughout – and with minimal power consumption, it eliminates the need for a heatsink and fan, so as to significantly increase performance.

Increased reliabilityReplacing multiple legacy processor cards (and incorporating all watchdog and communications functionality previously supplied on a separate card), an Infineon TriCore 32bit network processor gathers data from proprietary plant monitoring units and distributes it over a deterministic Ethernet network. This reduction in component count increases reliability and availability.

Flexible configurationThe Ethernet multicast facility of the PRISMIC® PMS application allows for multiple-master configuration, so that I/O data can be accessed at different geographical locations. Consequently, localized control of any power system segment mitigates against network communication problems – and since the communications network is divided, a dormant master can take control over the newly isolated section.

Maximum controlWhere fibers can be damaged, PRISMIC® PMS offers dual redundancy options to ensure maximum and seamless performance. Ethernet communications allow upgraded power management systems to be easily expanded to encompass additional power system equipment, whilst multiple power management systems can be connected by using Ethernet over copper, fiber or microwave links. Ethernet is used with great effect to communicate with the HMIs. Serial links from the PMS to the HMIs have now been replaced with Ethernet connections, allowing much faster update rates, including event logging and trending.

Highly secure PRISMIC® PMS uses the world-leading QNX Neutrino operating system to provide hard, real-time response for high-reliability, mission-critical industrial applications. A safe and reliable basis on which to build applications, QNX Neutrino is a true microkernel operating system that offers a unique level of security and allows the PMS to offer a range of invaluable features:

—— Process watchdog for application monitoring and recovery – separate watchdog boards no longer required

—— Self-healing inter-process communications

—— Restartable device drivers and operating system services

—— No damage to kernel or other components following component failure (even if a low-level driver)

—— In case of component failure, QNX Neutrino can terminate component and reclaim resources without re-booting the new-generation PRISMIC®

—— Separate communication processorsno longer required

—— Deterministic network now operatesat 100Mbit/s (originally 10Mbit/s)

—— QNX real-time operating system delivers a deterministic response

—— Time synchronization is implemented between distributed systems

—— High accuracy ‘at-source’ event logtime stamping

—— 100ms analogue trending

—— Networked HMIs – resulting in rapid graphical update

—— Unlimited, easily expandable connection of HMI displays available

COMPREHENSIVE DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS

REASSURANCE THAT YOUR ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS ARE FUNCTIONING WITH FAULT-FREE EFFICIENCY

PDA IS THE ONLY ONLINE ELECTRICAL TECHNIQUE THAT MONITORS THE HEALTH OF STATOR WINDING INSULATION SYSTEMS IN LARGE GENERATORS AND INDUSTRIAL MOTORS

BRUSH CONDITION MONITORING CREATES UP-TO-DATE REPORTS TO ALERT YOU IN ADVANCE TO ANY POTENTIAL PROBLEMS

Power and process plants depend on their electrical systems for effective functioning – and it’s crucial that these systems operate reliably and consistently at all times. Every day demands on electrical systems are increasing, since they are obliged to operate at ever higher stress levels to answer increasing end-customer demand.

So you need the reassurance that your electrical systems are functioning with fault-free efficiency – which is why you need BRUSH Condition Monitoring. It provides accurate information on the performance of your electrical systems, with particular attention paid to signs of deterioration caused by ageing. In addition, BRUSH Condition Monitoring creates real-time reports to alert you, in advance, to any potential problems, thereby minimizing the chances of a system failure and loss of revenue.

REAL-TIME MONITORING FOR COMPLETE PEACE OF MIND

BRUSH Condition Monitoring measures Partial Discharge Activity (PDA) within electrical equipment. PDA provides an accurate indication of whether an electrical system is degrading, and how quickly that deterioration is progressing. In fact, the measurement of PDA is the only online electrical technique that monitors the health of stator winding insulation systems in large generators and industrial motors. The data produced, along with an accurate assessment of operating conditions, provides top-quality diagnostics and a reliable analysis of a machine’s health and performance.

Detecting generator problems In addition to monitoring the ageing of electrical systems, BRUSH Condition Monitoring can detect generator problems, alerting you to factors such as loose stator windings, contamination from internal and external sources, thermal degradation due to high temperatures or thermal cycling.
