Corona: a problem you should not ignore

Electrical corona discharges occur when the voltage applied to an insulated conductor is high enough to create current leakage, but not enough to cause a complete insulation breakdown (at least not yet). Still, corona discharges generate ozone, nitric oxide and acid gases, which are corrosive and can further deteriorate the insulation, up to complete failure. In some cases, corona discharges can represent significant power loss.

The importance of having a strategy to manage production data

In a context marked by unprecedented connectivity and the proliferation of sensors, it’s becoming a growing challenge to manage production data for industrial businesses. Data is often collected based on the needs of individuals and lacks a general plan. It accumulates at such a rate that it becomes more and more difficult to valuate. Additionally, the lack of a strategy can create an imbalance between the resources dedicated to managing IT infrastructures and the gains in using the data. On the other hand, strategic data management enables businesses to make good use of it and gain valuable information.

Addressing pressure loss and oil leakage in Kaplan turbines and the impact on efficiency

Kaplan turbines offer the advantage of being able to operate with a relatively high level of efficiency over a wide range of flows and net heads. But this flexibility comes with a high‑pressure oil circuit that wears out over time and increasingly leaks oil, resulting in pressure losses. Reduced pressure in the hydraulic system that controls the runner blade servomotor can lead to a variety of maintenance problems, including shifts away from the optimum blade correlation (optimum correlation of guide vane vs. runner blade openings, depending on the head), resulting in a loss of performance and profitability.
