    Insulation Degradation With Ageing for Medium Voltage Motors

    Hey folks, Hope you are all doing well! We have a old BRUSH Electric Motor-Generator Set at our site. Recently during servicing, we noticed that the insulation on the Rotor poles was removed/eroding at places(See attached picture). Bare copper can be seen being exposed. This was concerning...

    Explosion Proof Vs. Non-Sparking Motors in Class 1 Div 2 Areas

    Hope all of you fine folks are doing well! I was recently reading a paper which states that we can use NON-SPARKING motors in Class 1 Div 2 areas instead of Explosion proof motors. ''As per IEEE standards(IEEE-1349 Std), 3 phase induction motors(non-classified) that do not have capacitors...

    Impact of Fuel Temperature on Gas Turbine Efficiency

    Hey everyone, hope all of you are doing great! I was reading that the gas turbine efficiency is directly impacted by incoming fuel temperature. Seems logical. But I want to know what is the extent of that impact? How much change in efficiency is expected for lets say a 10 degree C rise in fuel...
