In a refinery, all process units have a continuous operation. A wntinwus supply of electricity is important to maintain process unit operation. Voltage sag due to faults in the power supply system or motors reacceleration may result in costly shutdown if motors driving essential loads stop during these voltages disturbances resulting mainly from contactor drop or hipping of adjustable speed drive. This paper wnsiders two action lines. The first one approaches the sensitivity of critical electrical equipment to voltage sags while the second discusses systems exposed to sag and service continuity.Solutions implemented in motors control circuits and a set of parameters in adjustable speed drive are presented. 'The implementation of equipment solutions may cause other problems in the electrical system, like voltage sag due to motor reacceleration. A dynamic stability simulation to analyze motor reacceleration and the results of these simulations are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
