A remote terminal unit (RTU) is a microprocessor-controlled electronic device that interfaces objects in the physical world to a distributed control system or SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) system by transmitting telemetry data to a master system and by using messages from the master supervisory. This is accomplished by transmitting telemetry data to the system and/or changing the physical state of connected objects based on control messages received from the automation system. It is used to interface field devices with SCADA. RTUs can support multiple communication protocols at the same time. A limited number of input and output devices can be added to it.
Dynamic voltage restoration (DVR) is a method of overcoming voltage sags and swells that occur in electrical power distribution. Devices used for DVR include static var devices, which are series compensation devices that use voltage source converters (VSC). The DVR is used to inject three phase voltage in series and in synchronism with the network voltages in order to compensate voltage disturbances with a benefit of active /reactive power control.
Frequency response analysis is the technique whereby a sinusoidal test signal is used to measure points on the frequency response of a transfer function or impedance function. Sweep Frequency Response Analysis (SFRA) testing provides insight into the mechanical and electrical integrity of transformers.
Main Purpose of SFRA Test: Transformer Core displacement Winding displacement for both rotor and transformer Broken or loosen clamp connections Inter turn short circuit Internal short circuit Winding to Core Earth fault Winding Open circuit condition
For the cut-in speed is the point at which the wind turbine is able to generate power. Between the cut-in speed and the rated speed, where the maximum output is reached, the power output will increase cubically with wind speed. Pmax directly propotional to cubical of wind speed. So, by double the speed of wind power will be increased by 8 times.
1.6 inches = 1.6 inches x 1,000 mils per inch = 1,600 mils 0.25 inch = 0.25 inch x 1,000 mils per inch = 250 mils Area = 1,600 x 250 = 400,000 square mils
