A common cause for premature bearing failures in wind turbine gearboxes are the so-called White Etching Cracks (WEC). These undirected, three-dimensional cracks are bordered by regions of altered microstructure and ultimately lead to a cracking or spalling of the raceway. An accelerated WEC test was carried out on a FE8 test rig using cylindrical roller thrust bearings made of martensitic 100Cr6 steel...
In this paper, a coal type selection method for a coal fired boiler in a thermal power station is proposed. Combustion of coal and fusibility of fly ash are evaluated by using coal and fly ash properties. Combustion state in a coal fired boiler is estimated by the evaluated combustibility of coal and fusibility of fly ash. Applicable coal type is selected by the estimated combustion state. The proposed...
A high power pHEMT with longer drain-gate separation can operate at higher voltage. However, it shows large output power loss at millimeter-wave in addition to the conventional parasitic power dissipation. The nonlinear drain resistance Rd of the pHEMT is found to cause the large power loss, although it behaves as a conventional resistor at low frequency. The nonlinearity of the Rd is modeled and...
We report the performance of a V-band 5-stage high power amplifier MMIC using a millimeter-wave 0.1 mum GaAs pHEMT. It has demonstrated that an output power of 28.8 dBm (759 mW) at 1 dB compression point with 17.8 dB power gain and 14.2% PAE at 59 GHz. And it delivers an output power of 28.9 dBm (776 mW) at a saturation point. These results represent, to the best of our knowledge, the highest output...
Controller was designed for an OTEC (ocean thermal energy conversion) experimental plant. The nonlinear separation control, which consists of nonlinear statics compensation and linear dynamics compensation, is adopted for OTEC controller design. Effectiveness of the proposed controller was assured by simulation study using an OTEC simulator.
