摘要:
An electrical transformer includes a housing, a transformer core and winding subassembly located within the housing, and an active mount subassembly having an active mount and a controller. The active mount has a first end attached to the housing and a second end attached to the transformer core and winding subassembly. The controller has an output port connected to the active mount. The active mount cancels out (or reduces) noise-causing vibrations which come from the transformer core and winding subassembly during transformer operation.

An electrical transformer includes a housing, a transformer core and winding subassembly located in the housing, and a cooling fan subassembly. The cooling fan subassembly includes a variable speed fan located outside the housing, a temperature sensor located near the housing, and a controller having an output port connected to the variable speed fan and an input port connected to the temperature sensor. The controller reduces the fan speed (and hence the fan noise) when a lower fan speed can maintain the desired temperature as sensed by the temperature sensor. Preferably, the electrical transformer further includes an active mount subassembly and/or (when the housing includes a tank containing transformer fluid) a mechanism for varying the dynamic pressure of such transformer fluid.

An electrical transformer includes a tank containing transformer fluid and a transformer core and winding subassembly located in the transformer fluid within the tank. The electrical transformer also includes a mechanism for varying the dynamic pressure of the transformer fluid within the tank during electromagnetic operation of the transformer core and winding subassembly to cancel out (or reduce) noise-causing vibrations in the transformer fluid which come from the operating transformer core and winding subassembly. Preferably, the electrical transformer further includes an active mount subassembly.

Each bearing of an aligned line-shaft has vibration responses which differ from the vibration responses of a misaligned system in which at least one of the bearings is statically displa=ced. Computed static displacement values for each bearing are derived from the equation of motion of the system employing mass, stiffness and damping coefficients of the system. The static displacement value of each bearing is computed from the vibration responses of all of the bearings. Accelerometers sense the vibration response of each bearing. A computer computes the magnitude of misalignment of each bearing from the sensed responses. The computed results provide an indication of the magnitude of static displacement of each bearing of the system causing the sensed vibration response.

This circuit breaker comprises a plurality of a vacuum-type circuit interrupters, each having a movable contact rod. A common operating device for the interrupters comprises a linearly-movable operating member. The interrupters are mounted at one side of the operating member with their movable contact rods extending in a direction generally toward the operating member. Means is provided for mechanically coupling the operating member to the contact rods, and this means comprises a plurality of insulating operating rods, each connected at one end to the operating member and at its opposite end to one of the movable contact rods. The operating rods are of substantially equal length and have longitudinal axes that converge and intersect at substantially a common point.

System and method for detecting the occurrence, location and depth of a crack in the rotor of a turbine-generator. The location and depth of a crack are determined by monitoring the fundamental and histogram harmonic components of vibrations at certain predetermined points along the length of the rotor. The histogram harmonic components are normalized relative to the fundamental component, and the normalized histogram harmonic components are monitored to determine the location of the crack. The unnormalized histogram harmonic components are analyzed to determine the depth of the crack. The occurrence of a crack is detected by monitoring the amplitude and phase of rotor vibrations during an accel or decel operation to detect harmonic resonances which are characteristic of a crack in the rotor. The amplitude and phase data is filtered to eliminate spurious data, and it is interpolated to provide baseline and current data at matching speed points.

A Helmholtz resonator is used in communication with the compression chamber of a rotary compressor in order to attenuate noise. The resonator concentrates the attenuation of noise in a frequency band around 4 kHz corresponding to the concentration of noise produced by a particular rotary compressor, this band also corresponding to the frequencies which the human ears are most sensitive to. The resonator branches off from the discharge port in an end wall of the compressor. The resonantor uses an easily machined cylindrical resonance cavity on the surface of the end wall, the resonance cavity also being bounded on one side by a cylindrical wall of the rotary compressor. The resonator significantly reduces the noise in a rotary compressor of a specific type commonly used for compressing refrigerant gases in a refrigerator.

A high speed contact driver for use in an electrical circuit interrupter includes a pair of series-connected, elongate and generally opposing electrical conductors bowed in predetermined, generally opposing contours. These conductors are connected to a bridging electrical contact which is normally biased into a bridging position between a pair of stationary contacts. Pulse generating means are provided for applying a current pulse of predetermined magnitude to the electrical conductors. In response to this current pulse, these electrical conductors electromagnetically repulse each other and drive the bridging contact out of bridging position between the stationary contacts.

A method is disclosed for detecting incipient cracks in the rotor of a turbine-generator while the turbine-generator is on-line operating under normal conditions. Vibration signature analysis is performed on a set of difference signals produced by superposing and subtracting corresponding enhanced background and foreground vibration signals. Each enhanced vibration signal is created by superposing and summing an integral number of vibration signal segments, each segment corresponding to one revolution of the rotor. An incipient crack is manifested principally by the appearance and increase in relative amplitude of signal harmonics at twice the rotational speed of the rotor. The method of the invention is sufficiently sensitive to detect cracks having a depth on the order of less than one-percent the diameter of the rotor.
