Power plants need to do all they can to cost-effectively produce electricity. Plants look for savings in all sorts of places, but the good news is there’s a relatively simple switch that can have a ...

Hydrogen cooled generators also have less windage/friction loss than air-cooled generators. Windage, which is caused by friction between the hydrogen and the rotor, can account for 30-40 percent loss ...

Although generally hydrogen is only mentioned within the context of transportation and energy storage, by far the most useful applications are found in industrial applications, including for the ...

Since the Aguirre Power Plant (Figure 1), owned by the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA), provides electricity to one third of Puerto Ricans, effective and efficient operation is essential ...

It exhibits low density, high specific heat, and high thermal conductivity features. The hydrogen-cooled synchronous condenser has 1.5 times higher heat transfer capability and 1/14th the density than ...

California start-up H2 Energy Renaissance today announced it has built a hydrogen generator that’s inexpensive to manufacture and produces on-demand affordable hydrogen. “This technology shall reduce ...

FLIR Systems has published a technical note that describes how its GF343 Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) camera is helping utility companies using hydrogen-cooled generators avoid costly power outages. The ...

FLIR Systems reports on how its FLIR GF343 Optical Gas Imaging camera is being used for monitoring leak detection on Hydrogen cooled turbogenerators. Hydrogen cooled generators, used in power stations ...

Electrical-equipment manufacturers employ laboratory researchers, for the good reason that they want to find better ways of producing power, better ways of protecting power on transmission lines. One ...
