This paper was written by a working group of the IEEE power system relay committee to provide guidance to the industry to better coordinate generator protection with generator control. The paper discusses specific calculation methods that can be used to ensure that generator protection and excitation system control are fully coordinated. It also specifically addresses the coordination of relays with generator full load capability and machine steady state stability limits. Because of recent blackouts, NERC (North American electric reliability council) is developing standards for the coordination of generator protection and control. This paper provides practical guidance on providing this coordination.

The problem, as described by this paper mill, is the desire to retire an inefficient condensing steam turbine generator for economic reasons and purchase additional power from the utility. The condensing unit, along with a modern extraction steam turbine generator and two utility ties, presently supply power to this three-bus medium voltage system via sync bus and reactor ties. A power system study commenced to determine the impact of the proposed change on the existing paper mill electrical distribution system as well as the existing utility ties. This paper describes the results of the analytical methods employed: power quality measurements, load flow analysis, short circuit analysis and transient stability simulations. Recommendations included alternatives to accommodate retirement of the condensing steam turbine generator, most significantly, the installation of a new power transformer as a third utility tie and the application of reactive compensation as filters at the three medium voltage busses.

As budgets shrink and headcount is reduced, the level and performance expectation of automation systems in pulp and paper mills is increasing. At the same time, engineers are being pulled in multiple directions, some of which arenpsilat even related to engineering. Layoffs, hiring freezes and early retirements are raising the average age of electrical engineering personnel in mills. Negative publicity due to the above and other factors have detracted many new graduates from even considering the pulp and paper industry as a career. While there are several different ways of addressing the above problems, this paper will focus on the use of engineering interns as an efficient and inexpensive way to help get the work done in the mill while exposing potential future employees to the pulp and paper industry.

As pricing and margin pressures in the pulp & paper industry continue to increase, overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) has become more than just a catch phrase; it is an essential element in the viability of any player in the industry. Every level of the organization can have an impact on OEE - positive, and negative. This paper discusses how remote monitoring and expert diagnostic support fill the need to improve OEE by supporting operations, maintenance, engineering and management. These programs assure assets are in operation longer, machines perform at or above design production speed for a given product and ultimately delivering more saleable product. This is accomplished by reducing or eliminating instances of unscheduled down time, reducing the duration of such down time, increasing the effectiveness, availability and value of support resources, increasing quality by optimizing system performance and by delivering return on investment (ROI) to management. Real-world pulp & paper industry case examples are used to demonstrate how remote monitoring and expert diagnostic support programs actually affect ROI for existing users. These case examples range from predictive failures of simple devices to deep dive (in-depth), system design, performance and product issue analyses and resolutions.

Heated instrument tubing is common throughout industry and is most often used for winterization. It is also common for tubing to be maintained at high temperatures for viscous processes or to keep gas samples above dew point and prevent condensation. In many cases the tubing is field routed, electrical heat tracing is then installed, followed by the insulation and weather barrier. Alternatively, pre-insulated and heat traced ldquotube bundlesrdquo are designed to expedite installation, minimize total installed cost, and ensure predictable and reliable operation. This paper addresses the advantages and limitations of both approaches.

Maintaining electrical and mechanical systems within the industrial process environment continues to present a daunting challenge. With electrical motors at the center of most processes, prognostics are best accomplished during motor operation. However, since disruption of the process is rarely possible, often systems must be de-energized during scheduled outages before they can be maintained. Predictive maintenance techniques offer a viable solution to this dilemma. As a result, predictive maintenance has been the subject of many recent technical papers. Nonintrusive continuous monitoring of critical systems is emerging as the best method to maximize reliability and uptime with minimal impact on the plant process operation. This paper discusses the importance of predictive maintenance for industrial process applications and investigates a number of emerging technologies that enable this approach, including online energy efficiency evaluation and continuous condition monitoring. The paper gives an overview of existing and future technologies that can be used in these areas. Two methods for bearing fault detection and energy efficiency estimation are discussed. The paper concludes with focus on one pilot installation at Weyerhaeuserpsilas Containerboard Packaging Plant in Manitowoc, Wisconsin USA, where the site is realizing benefits from a new and novel approach.

Industrial plant engineers are required to provide a safe and reliable electrical cable infrastructure that will assure maximum uptime at the lowest possible cost. As electric systems age, engineers are faced with the challenges of lower availability of maintenance crews and high financial costs of cable replacement. In order to optimize these challenges, predictive diagnostic tools can be used to effectively monitor and repair discrete locations to extend cable system life. This paper is an overview covering best practices for commissioning new installations and applying predictive diagnostic programs to aging industrial shielded extruded dielectric cable systems rated 5 kV and higher. This paper will examine failure mechanisms in extruded cable and accessories, review the IEEE 400 Guide for Field Testing and Evaluation of the Insulation of Shielded Power Cables, discuss the adverse effects of withstand testing when the objective is to assure system reliability, and present case studies from industrial facilities which demonstrate the ability of defect specific diagnostics to pinpoint defects and avoid future unplanned service outages. Lastly, the use of a taped metal shield will be addressed, examining the aging process that may cause it to be less reliable than other shield designs and limit the ability of the industry to locate failures and assess future cable system performance.

The objective of the IEEE/IAS Pulp and Paper Industry Committee since its inception has been "To advance the theory and practice in the electrical field as related to the design and management of electrical systems". They have been doing just that for over 50 years by providing a forum, the annual technical conference, for engineers to exchange information that helps them do their job better. With the inception of the new IEEE/IAS Pulp and Paper Industry Committee, Forest Products Subcommittee or FPS there is an opportunity to extend the knowledge transfer even further by adding a related group of engineers and technicians that bring their own experiences to the forum. It seems reasonable then to ask what these two industry segments have in common and how their affiliation through participation in this Subcommittee and the broader committee would be beneficial to each other.
