Design of a non-intrusive cable condition monitoring technique by means of partial discharge
(2013)
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the design of a non-intrusive condition monitoring
technique for medium- and high-voltage power cables. Partial discharge (PD) was used to design the
non-intrusive condition ...
Measurement and verification of the Eskom irrigation pumping standard product programme
(2013)
Eskom Integrated Demand Management (IDM) initiated a funding mechanism termed the Standard Product Programme (SPP) to cater for smaller Energy Efficient (EE) projects. The impacts of these projects
also need to be assessed ...
Study on the energy saving applying highly efficient permanent magnet motor with two degrees of mechanical freedom in concrete industry
(IEEE-Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2013)
The cement and concrete industry in South Africa has
been growing rapidly for the last couple of years. This
is due to the development of the construction industry
with its need in concrete products like: concrete ...
Intelligente beheer van 'n effektiewe hernubare-energie tenk vir melkboerdery
(2014)
To reduce strain on Eskom and decrease the cost for producing dairy products, an energy-efficient bulk storage tank using solar power was designed. The system uses thermoelectric cooling modules as a supporting cooling ...
Design of a prototype power line inspection robot
(2013)
The purpose of this paper is to provide the design of a prototype power line inspection
robot for the monitoring of Eskom transmission lines. It should also determine if an inspection robot
would be a feasible solution ...
Measurement and verification of the Eskom irrigation pumping standard product programme: evaluation of crop load factors
(2013)
Eskom Integrated Demand Management (IDM) also
included irrigation in the Standard Product
Programme (SPP) to cater for smaller irrigation
Energy Efficient (EE) projects. The irrigation sector is a
large energy consumer ...
Transmission line monitoring system for a power line inspection robot
(2013)
Eskom has thousands-of-kilometres of transmission lines running across South Africa. The
current methods of overhead power line inspection (foot patrols and air inspections) have been
implemented for a long time now and ...
Design of a transmission line monitoring solution for an unmanned quadcopter
(2014)
Eskom owns thousands of kilometres of transmission lines that need to be inspected in order to plan maintenance. Current methods of inspection are costly and ineffective and could pose safety risks. Systems already developed ...
Integration of battery and super-capacitor banks into a single-power system for a hybrid electric vehicle
(IEEE, 2016)
This paper presents a study on a hybrid electric vehicle for mines and other industrial sectors. The power supply system of the vehicle is designed by combining two sources of power: a battery and super-capacitor banks. ...
Intelligent controller for improved efficiency of micro wind turbine generators
(IEEE, 2016)
Due to an ever increasing demand for electricity Eskom is struggling to cope, which inevitably leads to load shedding. Although this is a minor inconvenience for residential users, the effects can be detrimental for ...
