Measurement of Strain, Pulsatile and Hidden Power
Import 22/07/2015Deformační výkony působí v důsledku přítomnosti proudových a napěťových harmonických v obvodu. Skrytý a pulsační výkon doprovází odběr, když je nesymetrický. Tato diplomová práce se zabývá měřením výkonů trojfázové soustavy v jejím nejobecnějším provozním stavu. Tím je soustava nesymetricky napájeného spotřebiče s nárokem na jalový výkon za nesinusových podmínek.Distortion powers act due to the presence of current and voltage harmonics in the circuit. The Hidden and Pulsatile power act due to the load unbalance. This thesis deals with measurement of the three-phase system powers in the most general case. That means an unbalanced system with the reactive load under non-sinusoidal conditions.450 - Katedra kybernetiky a biomedicínského inženýrstvívelmi dobř
Differences in the response to in-phase and out-of-phase multiaxial high-cycle fatigue loading
This paper discusses the phase shift effect occurring between two and more load channels of multiaxially loaded specimens. The discussion concludes that there is an extreme shortage of good experimental data that would prove the existence and the trend of the phase shift effect in the high-cycle fatigue region. It is no wonder that there are so many fatigue strength estimation criteria that use quite different computational concepts, because the response to the phase shift effect in the experimental base is often hidden in a conglomeration of other interacting effects. The paper presents results of a sensitivity study that compares the fatigue strength estimation results for various such criteria for the same stress amplitudes, but for different phase shifts between the push-pull and torsion load channels. These results show that, with the exception of criteria, that assume a zero phase shift effect, the phase shift affects the results of each studied fatigue strength estimation criterion in a different way. If well-organized experiments were available, experiments corresponding to the described comparison between in-phase and out-of-phase loading would show the right trends, and the optimum criterion could be selected. A proposal for such an experimental setup is provided in the paper
Efficiency for Large Fleets: An Analysis of How Industrial Customers Use Electric and Hybrid Vehicles
This paper presents methods and results which allow an analysis of relevant driving parameters of hybrid and electric vehicles. In order to gain crucial insights into how industrial customers use hybrid and electric vehicles, the paper investigates the following parameters: information about odometer, charging processes and battery charging levels. The data used for this purpose was provided by the Canadian fleet management company Geotab Inc. They were evaluated by means of ‘Google BigQuery’ and the statistics programme ‘IBM SPSS Statistics’. It turned out that correlations between ‘charging time’ and ‘battery charging level’ exist, as well as between ‘battery level’ and ‘distance per day’. One of the main questions in the present study asks whether long charging times of car batteries lead to decreased average battery charging levels. As a result of this study, the longer a hybrid vehicle is charged per day, the lower sink its average battery charging level. The findings of this research help managers of car fleets to enhance their existing fleet management for establishing more efficient fleets with respect to ecological and economical aspects. Our research is particularly significant as this will save money across such fleets worldwide, and at the same time, preserve the environment as much as possible.

THERMO-MECHANICAL FATIGUE ANALYSIS OF A STEAM TURBINE SHAFT
Increasing demands on the flexibility of steam turbines due to the use of renewable energy sources substantially alters the fatigue strength requirements of components of these devices. Rapid start-ups as well as the increased number of the load cycles applied to the turbines must be handled by design methodologies. The goal of the work presented in this paper was to provide a computational framework applicable to the thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF) prediction of steam turbine shafts. The so-called Damage Operator Approach by Nagode et al. has been implemented to the software codes and applied to fatigue analysis of the thermo-mechanical material response computed numerically by the finite element analysis. Experimental program conducted in order to identify the material thermo-mechanical behavior and to verify numerical simulations is introduced in the paper. Some results of TMF prediction of a sample steam turbine shaft are shown

Thermo-mechanical fatigue prediction of a steam turbine shaft
The increasing demands on the flexibility of steam turbines due to the use of renewable energy sources substantially alters the fatigue strength requirements of components of these devices. This paper presents Thermo-Mechanical Fatigue (TMF) design calculations for the steam turbine shaft. The steam turbine shaft is exposed to complex thermo-mechanical loading conditions during the operating cycle of the turbine. An elastic-plastic structural Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of the turbine shaft is performed for the turbine operating cycle on the basis of calculated temperature fields obtained in a previous transient thermal FEA. The temperature dependent material parameters, which are used in the elastic-plastic FEA, are obtained from the uniaxial tests. Consequently, the TMF is predicted for the steam turbine shaft. Several fatigue criteria are used for the identifications of the critical domain and for the TMF damage assessment of the turbine shaft
