W eksploatacji turbogeneratorów zachodzi szereg zjawisk fizycznych prowadzących do pogarszania ich stanu technicznego (np. procesy starzeniowe i zmęczeniowe materiałów konstrukcyjnych) i w efekcie zwiększania ryzyka eksploatacyjnego, które są szczególnie nasilone w okresie eksploatacji zaawansowanej, gdy turbogenerator zbliża się do końca zaprojektowanego czasu życia. Aby turbogenerator mógł dalej spełniać aktualne wysokie wymagania eksploatacyjne, rozwiązaniem może być jego modernizacja. W artykule zaprezentowano wybrane zagadnienia techniczne z zakresu modernizacji turbogeneratorów serii TWW (z chłodzeniem wodorowo-wodnym, np. TWW-200-2, TWW-200-2A, TWW-320-2Y3, TWW-500-2), wdrożone przez EthosEnergy Poland S.A. w turbogeneratorach eksploatowanych w Polsce i za granicą. Modernizacja turbogeneratorów serii TWW jest sprawą istotną, gdyż stanowią one podstawowe jednostki wytwórcze nie tylko polskiego systemu elektroenergetycznego. W artykule przedstawiono udoskonalenia modernizacyjne wybranych węzłów konstrukcyjnych, które umożliwiają podwyższenie mocy znamionowej i wydajności turbogeneratorów, zwiększenie ich trwałości i niezawodności eksploatacyjnej, jak również znaczącą poprawę poziomu ich bezpieczeństwa eksploatacyjnego. Przedstawione zmiany modernizacyjne zostały opracowane w oparciu o liczne analizy, optymalizacje techniczne i dotyczą całego turbogeneratora, tj. jego stojana, wirnika, systemu chłodzenia jak również innych strategicznych komponentów. Wszystkie prezentowane rozwiązania charakteryzują się zastosowaniem wysokiej jakości nowoczesnych materiałów. Wyniki badań i pomiarów zmodernizowanych turbogeneratorów w eksploatacji potwierdziły poprawność i słuszność przyjętych założeń konstrukcyjnych.

Operational phenomena occurring in turbogenerators like deteriorations, ageing and fatigue processes increase operational risk, especially when turbogenerators approach their expected life-time, then an upgrade/modernization of the turbogenerators may become necessary in order to meet the nowadays operational requirements. The paper presents some selected technical designs used in modernized TWW-series turbogenerators (with hydrogen-water cooling, on the example of turbogenerators type TWW-200-2, TWW-200-2A, TWW-320-2Y3, TWW-500-2), successfully implemented by EthosEnergy Poland S.A. in many turbogenerators operated in Poland and abroad. Modernization of TWW-series turbogenerators is important subject, because the turbogenerators are fundamental power units in electric power systems in Poland and some other countries. The paper presents some modernizing improvements of selected designing and constructional areas, which enable to upgrade the turbogenerator nominal power, to rise its operational efficiency, reliability, safety and extend the turbogenerator life-time. The presented modernizing solutions and modifications were developed based on extensive engineering analyses and optimizations and they are applicable to the whole turbogenerator, i.e. its stator, rotor, cooling/ventilation system as well as other strategic components. All the solutions are characterized by application of high-quality modern materials. Tests and diagnostics results of the modernized turbogenerators in operation have confirmed the correctness and accuracy of the predicted modernizing expectations.

Duże siły i amplitudy drgań występujące w pobliżu lub stanie rezonansu są niebezpieczne dla maszyn elektrycznych. Naprężenia dynamiczne towarzyszące drganiom przy częstotliwościach rezonansowych prowadzą do zniszczenia zmęczeniowego. Dlatego maszyna elektryczna powinna być tak zaprojektowana, aby uniknąć pracy w pobliżu rezonansu, a więc jej częstotliwości drgań własnych powinny znajdować się w bezpiecznej odległości od częstotliwości sił wymuszających. Zaprezentowano wpływ naprężeń wstępnych na częstotliwość drgań własnych wybranego węzła konstrukcyjnego maszyny elektrycznej.

High vibration forces and amplitudes occurring in the resonance state or close to it, are dangerous for electric machines. Dynamic stresses, accompanying the vibrations close to resonance frequencies, lead to fatigue failure. That is why an electric machine must be designed in order to avoid occurring of working vibrations close to the resonance state – it means that the frequency of its free vibrations must be in a safe distance from frequencies of exciting forces. Presented is an influence of initial stresses on free vibration frequency of a selected constructional node of an electric machine.

Purpose: In this work there are presented the investigation results of mechanical properties and microstructure concerning mainly intermetallic phases of the aluminium – titanium alloy with a defined content of 2 and 4 % of cerium addition. The purpose of this work was also to determine the heat treatment conditions for solution heat treatment of the investigation alloys. Design/methodology/approach: The reason of this work was to determine the heat treatment influence, particularly solution heat treatment time to the changes of the microstructure, as well to determine which intermetallic phases occur after the heat treatment performed, and how is the morphology of these particles. Findings: After solution heat treatment for 4 hours the structure changes. The grains are larger and no more uniform as showed before. The most stable intermetallic in the Al-Ti system is the Al3Ti phase. The solution heat treatment time should be greater than 4 hours to ensure a proper solution of titanium and cerium in the Al-á solid solution. Research limitations/implications: The investigated aluminium samples were examined metallographically using optical microscope with different image techniques, scanning electron microscope and also analyzed using a Vickers micro-hardness tester, also EDS microanalysis was made. Practical implications: As an implication for the practice a new alloy can be developed, some other investigation should be performed in the future, but the knowledge found in this research shows an interesting investigation direction. Originality/value: The combination of light weight and high strength Ti-based alloys is very attractive for aerospace and automotive industries. Furthermore, the presence of calcium cerium into existence new unknown phases as well can enhance the thermal stability of ternary Al-Ti-Ce alloy because of its higher melting point then Al-Ti.

Purpose: The technological progress in material engineering causes the continuous need to develop product testing methods providing comprehensive quality evaluation. In material engineering it is the images obtained by various methods that have become the source of information about materials. Design/methodology/approach: The presented methodology, making it possible to determine the types and classes of defects developed during casting the elements from aluminium alloys, making use photos obtained with the flaw detection method with the X-ray radiation. The tests indicate to the applicability of neural networks for this task. It is very important to prepare the neural network data in the appropriate way, including their standardization, carrying out the proper image analysis and correct selection and calculation of the geometrical coefficients of flaws in the X-ray images. Findings: In classical computer algorithms even a slight rotation or change in lighting can binder the proper interpretation and alternation of variable input data. To eliminate this hindrance the programming can be converted by specifying such features of the structure element that remain most significant and effect the similarities of the analysed images. In neural networks this particular feature needs not to be specified - if necessary, the neural network spots it automatically. Practical implications: The computer aided methodology of the quality control of the light Al and Mg based alloys may be used by manufacturers of subassemblies and elements of car engines. Originality/value: The value of the applied methodology was to correct identify the casting effects that occurred during the casting process.

In the metal casting industry, an improvement of component quality depends mainly on better control over the production parameters. In order to gain a better understanding of how to control the as-cast microstructure, it is important to understand the evaluation of microstructure during solidification and understanding how influence the changes of chemical concentration on this microstructure. In this research, the effect of Cu content on the microstructure and solidification parameters of Al-Si-Cu alloys has been investigated. Thus, the thermal analysis of the alloys is used to control of aluminum casting process. The effect of different Cu content on solidification parameters such: aluminum dendrites nucleation temperature (TLiq, Liquidus temperature), á+â eutectic nucleation temperature (TE(Al+Si)N), Cu-rich eutectic nucleation temperature (TAl+Cu), solidus temperature (Tsol), solidification range (ÄTs) has been studied in liquidus region. Influence of Cu content on the microstructure has been carried out. The principle observation made from this work ware that as copper concentration is increased the liquidus and solodius temperature decried. In addition to this it was observed that increase a Cu content from 1 to 4 wt % caused reduce of the secondary dendrite arm spacing and increase the grain size.

The developed design methodologies both the material and technological ones will make it possible to improve shortly the quality of materials from the light alloys in the technological process, and the automatic process flow correction will make the production cost reduction possible, and - first of all - to reduce the amount of the waste products. Method was developed for analysis of the casting defects images obtained with the X-ray detector analysis of the elements made from the Al-Si-Cu alloys of the AC-AlSi7Cu3Mg type as well as the method for classification of casting defects using the artificial intelligence tools, including the neural networks; the developed method was implemented as software programs for quality control. Castings were analysed in the paper of car engine blocks and heads from the Al-Si-Cu alloys of the AC-AlSi7Cu3Mg type fabricated with the "Cosworth" technological process. The computer system, in which the artificial neural networks as well as the automatic image analysis methods were used makes automatic classification possible of defects occurring in castings from the Al-Si-Cu alloys, assisting and automating in this way the decisions about rejection of castings which do not meet the defined quality requirements, and therefore ensuring simultaneously the repeatability and objectivity of assessment of the metallurgical quality of these alloys.

Purpose: The aim of this paper was to investigate the structure of the MCMgAl6Zn1 magnesium and ACAlSi9Cu aluminium cast alloy in as-cast state. Design/methodology/approach: The following results concern the microstructure of the cast magnesium and aluminium alloys using ZEISS SUPRA 25, Opton DSM-940 scanning and LEICA MEF4A light microscopy, X-ray qualitative microanalysis as well as X-ray analysis. Findings: The analysis of the structure magnesium alloy consists of the solid solution á – Mg (matrix) of the secondary phase g – Mg17Al12 evenly located in the structure. The structure creates agglomerates in the form of needle precipitations, partially coherent with the matrix placed mostly at the grain boundaries. The AC AlSi9Cu and AC AlSi9Cu4 cast aluminium alloys are characterised by a dendritic structure of the á solid solution - as the alloy matrix, as well are characterised by a discontinuous â–Si phase forming the á+â eutectic grains, with a morphology depending on the silicon and copper mass concentration. Research limitations/implications: Taking into account the fact that some of the properties are of great importance only for the surface of the material, the future investigation will concern modelling of the alloy surface using surface layers deposition methods like physical vapour deposition methods. Practical implications: A desire to create as light vehicle constructions as possible and connected low fuel consumption have made it possible to make use of magnesium and aluminium alloys as constructional material in automotive industry. Originality/value: Contemporary materials should possess high mechanical properties, physical and chemical, as well as technological ones, to ensure long and reliable use. The above mentioned requirements and expectations regarding the contemporary materials are met by the non-ferrous metals alloys used nowadays, including the magnesium and aluminium alloys.

Purpose: In this work the effect of cooling rate on the size of the grains, SDAS, size of the β precipitation and thermal characteristic results of AC AlSi9Cu cast alloy have been described. The solidification process was studied using the cooling curve and crystallization curve at solidification rate ranging from 0,16 °Cs -1 up to 1,04 °Cs -1. Design/methodology/approach: The experimental alloy used in this investigation was prepared by mixing in suitable proportion the AC AlSi5Cu1(Mg) commercial alloys and two master alloys AlSi49 and AlCu55. Thermal analysis tests were made using the UMSA Technology Platform. Cooling curve thermal analysis was performed on all samples using high sensitivity thermocouples of K type that were protected in a stainless steel sheath and data were acquired by a high speed data acquisition system linked to a PC computer. Each chilled sample was sectioned horizontally where the tip of the thermocouple was located and it was prepared by standard grinding and polishing procedures. The final stage of polishing was done using commercial silicon oxide slurry. Optical microscopy was used to characterize the microstructure and intermetallic phases. Secondary dendrite arm spacing measurements were carried out using a Leica Q-Win ™ image analyzer. The UTM measurements were carried out using a Zwick testing machine. Findings: Increasing the cooling rate increases significantly the liquidus temperature, nucleation undercooling temperature, solidification range and decreases the recalescence undercooling temperature. Increasing cooling rate refines all microstructural features including secondary dendrite arm spacing (SDAS) and intermetallic compounds and improves silicon modification level. Research limitations/implications: The results presented in this paper show results only for the one alloy - AC AlSi9Cu, and for the assessment of the Silicon Modification Level didn't include the arrangement of a Si crystal in a matrix. Practical implications: The aim of this work is describe in detail the solidification process in a number of AC AlSi9Cu foundry alloy. Cooling rates applied in this experiment occur in cross section of a bloc engine. The results shows the effect of different cooling rates on the microstructural features and the characteristic parameters of the cooling curve of ACAlSi9Cu alloy. Originality/value: Original value of the work is applied the artificial intelligence for the assessment of the Silicon Modification Level.

Purpose: Effects of magnesium additions to Al alloy with 2% Ti addition on the microstructure, phase morphology and distribution and mechanical properties were investigated. Here are presented mainly microstructure changes after solution heat treatment concerning mainly grain uniformity and intermetallic phases of the aluminium - titanium alloy with a content of 2 and 4 % of magnesium addition. The purpose of this work was also to determine the solution heat treatment conditions of the investigation alloys. Design/methodology/approach: The reason of this work was to determine the heat treatment parameters influence, particularly SHT temperature and time onto the changes of the microstructure of the investigated material, as well to determine which intermetallic phases occur after the heat treatment performed, and how is the particles morphology in as cast state compared to structure after heat treatment. Findings: After solution heat treatment for 4 hours the structure changes in a significant way. The grains are larger and no more uniform as in the as cast state. The most stable intermetallic in the Al-Ti system is the Al3Ti phase. The solution heat treatment time should be greater than 4 hours to ensure a proper solution of titanium and magnesium in the Al-a solid solution. Research limitations/implications: The investigated aluminium samples were examined metallographically using optical microscope with different image techniques, scanning electron microscope and also analyzed using a Vickers micro-hardness tester, also EDS microanalysis was carried out. Practical implications: As an implication for the practice an alloy can be developed with increased properties, which could be of great interest for the automotive or aerospace industry. There are existing many different investigation areas and the knowledge found in this research shows one of interesting investigation direction. Originality/value: The combination of light weight and high strength achieved in the Al-Ti alloys is very attractive for aerospace and automotive industries. Addition of magnesium into the Al-Ti alloy could help also to reveal the existence new unknown phases.
