System Problems & Equipment Manufacturers
R readers of this column know that I dont hesitate to criticize equipment manufacturers for their technically parochial and/or deficient engineering which ultimately drives system installers, maintenance technicians and users crazy. Although I'm an instructor at a number of seminars and workshops each year, the by Bill Whitlock recent Syn-Aud-Con JENSEN TRANSFORMERS Grounding and Shielding Wor...
متن کاملThe Equipment-Replacement Problem
To illustrate these assumptions, let us consider a simple numerical example. Suppose a car is needed for three years; that is, suppose N = 3. At the beginning of the first year, we have a 2-year-old car. The annual cost of operating a car is a function of its age; and this cost function is given by: c(0) = 10, c(1) = 20, c(2) = 40, c(3) = 60, and c(4) = 70. The fact that these costs are increas...

متن کاملA Multi-Period Renewal equipment problem
This paper looks at a Multi-Period Renewal equipment problem (MPR). It is inspired by a specific real-life situation where a set of hardware items is to be managed and their replacement dates determined, given a budget over a time horizon comprising a set of periods. The particular characteristic of this problem is the possibility of carrying forward any unused budget from one period to the nex...
متن کاملA Novel Method for Equipment Sensitivity Study During Power Quality Events
This paper presents a new simulation method for performing equipment sensitivity study during power quality events. Power quality waveform events such as voltage sags, swells, transients, etc. may cause sensitive loads to trip or mis-operate. For better coordination between the system and the equipment, it is necessary that the effects of specific events on the equipment behavior be thoroughly ...
