- Case Study
Multiple arc flash incident energy mitigation methods are available, but how does an engineer know which is best for their client? This presentation identifies an approach to follow to pick the method, considering effectiveness, practicality, feasibility, and overall best option for realistic study results. With extensive experience with arc flash studies for many clients of all sizes, Mangan provides a real world demonstration of a project for a refinery client. The interplay between motor starting and arc flash analysis was evaluated, and mitigation recommendations were customized for the system. The challenges encountered during mitigation are identified, and the proposed solution is analyzed using ETAP Load Flow, Short Circuit, Arc Flash and Motor Acceleration Analysis. Safe motor operation, safe motor starting and arc flash protection are provided through customized mitigation methods and thoughtful system design.
How Unbalanced Harmonics from EV Charging Stations Impact Supply & Distribution Equipment
- 21:57
- Case Study
The escalating demand for fleet electrification across the U.S. presents a significant challenge to existing distribution infrastructure, necessitating EV charging management strategies to meet electrical energy demands and address power quality issues. Level 2 and Level 3 EV chargers, equipped with power electronic converters and PWM technology, generate non-sinusoidal currents, exacerbating power quality concerns at individual sites. The effect of rapid voltage changes (RVC) introduced by this equipment is also discussed. This case study features insights and observations from field-recorded measurements of unbalanced (per-phase) harmonic distortions at a site with over 300 electric van charging stations. The unbalanced harmonic analysis (UBHA) conducted by Eradeh Power Consulting using ETAP Software for the site, revealed distortion limits being exceeded for individual phase currents and voltages as well as power distribution equipment rating overloads (such as transformer K-rating and cable thermal limits). The presentation also discusses how unbalanced harmonic distortions calculated within the site and at the point of common coupling (PCC) can be mitigated using techniques such as the use of active / passive harmonic filters amongst others.
How BBraun Medical Uses ETAP Intelligent Load Shedding for Uninterrupted Healthcare Operations
- 7:24
- Case Study
This case study discusses the challenges faced by BBraun Medical, a manufacturing facility of medical products, due to unplanned outages and the lack of an optimized load shedding system. This demonstration discusses the use of ETAP Real-Time Intelligent Load Shedding (ILS), and ETAP's digital twin modeling capabilities, to distinguish between different subsystems and validate the ILS solution. The ILS solution provided a quick response to islanding conditions, ensuring the continuous operation of critical loads while shedding non-critical loads, thus minimizing production loss during outages. The solution also offered load optimization, flexible load priority modifications, and real-time monitoring capabilities. Overall, the ETAP ILS solution helped BBraun Medical operate safely during disturbances and minimize the impact of utility disturbances, providing an effective load shedding solution.
Red Sea Project - How to Optimize Renewable Plant Control & Power Systems with ETAP for Vision 2030
- 21:51
- Case Study
This Red Sea Project is a groundbreaking endeavor in Saudi Arabia under the Saudi Vision 2030 economic development program. The project is powered by a fully renewable energy system, including large-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) system and a substantial 1.3 GWh energy storage system, effectively providing 100% clean energy to the development. As the Engineering, Procurement and Construction firm for this project, SEPCOIII has been involved with the design and construction of a wide range of permanent utility assets, including support facilities such as desalination plants, power generation facilities and distribution networks for water, electricity and natural gas. In this presentation, learn how SEPCOIII relied on ETAP's Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) to assist with the technology challenges for the project’s distributed energy power system, and how the solution is being used to manage and supervise the power distribution system to achieve better optimizations and improve system stability.
Learn How ADNOC Uses ETAP Digital Twin & Operator Training to Enhance Power System Efficiency
- 17:24
- Case Study
The Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, also known as ADNOC, is the state-owned oil company of the United Arab Emirates, and is the world's 12th largest oil company by production. ADNOC is committed to sustainability and has implemented various initiatives to reduce its carbon footprint, enhance operational efficiency, and support the UAE's goal for renewable energy and climate change mitigation. For ADNOC’s many facilities, whether independent power plants or other electrical networks, the challenge is how to provide training to operators, to not only get familiar with the operation management tools and procedures, but also to gain experience with the system response. In this presentation, ADNOC will demonstrate how they use ETAP Operator Training (eOTS) with ETAP Digital Twin as their training environment for the existing power management system to ensure well-trained operators for their electrical networks, turbines, and generators, and to ensure they are capable of responding to any operating scenarios they face on a day-to-day basis, during a plant startup or shutdown, or any kind of disturbance in the electrical network.
