Metodología para analizar las magnitudes operacionales: “Caso de estudio temperaturas” del sistema de gestión de energía XA/21 como herramienta de gestión operativa y de mantenimiento de los sistemas de la Central Hidroeléctrica Paute Molino

Abstract

The objective of this research study was to design a methodology for the analysis of operational temperature levels for the power management system XA/21 in the two generation units of the Hydroelectric Power Station Paute Molino, focused on condition monitoring as a tool for the monitoring and protection for alarm management, operational management and maintenance. The information analyzed was taken from the software ´System analysis and operation and maintenance recording´ which is a tool for the operational and administrative management of the Power Stations of the company Hidropaute. The norm ISO 16269-6 was used as a reference for the statistical interpretation of data and the determination of statistical tolerance intervals; the interpretation is focused on data acquisition and analysis in accordance with norm ISO 17359 for condition monitoring and machine diagnostics. The results are preventive maintenance activities for operation and maintenance processes that ensure compliance with measurement and control limits for alarmas in the operational context. In conclusion it has been verified that the limits of current alarms are not commensurate with the current operational context, as a result the application, of the proposed methodology is recommended to ensure proper alarm management, operation and maintenance.
