2nd DCT test; September 27, 2011

Test Reference IEC 61854:1998 Clause 7.5.5 (Stiffness-Damping method)

Description of Test Twin Spacer Damper 450 CRS dia.31.5-32.39-A4DD17690T

Fittings

Customer Name Preformed L.P. (Thai) Company & PGCIL

Sample Quantity 3 sets

Objective of Test To ensure the product will meet the requirements of Power Grid
Corporation of India Limited

Methods of Test 1. Stiffness-Damping Method

Standard – IEC61854:1998 clause 7.5.5
The frame of spacer shall be fixed securely and a rigid tube shall be
securely held in one of spacer clamps. The tube shall be oscillated.
Such that angle of deflection of the spacer arm from its unloaded
position follows a sinusoid, i.e.:

Hinge of Spacer

Ф
ℓ

Movable Arm

φ = Φ sin ωt……………………………………………..1)
Amplitude = ℓ sin Ф……………………………………..2)

φ = angle of deflection
Ф = the peak value of deflection selected for the measurement.
ℓ = the arm length measured between clamp centre and
effective frame/arm pivot point (m)
The peak force F required to oscillate the spacer arm through
the angle measurement of ± Ф shall be determined (measured
at approximately 90o to the arm axis in the plane of the spacer
and passing through the centre of the clamp ).
The phase angle, α, between the force and arm deflection angle
shall also be determined.
If necessary the arm oscillation shall be maintained for a period
long enough to stabilize the temperature of the damping element
before measuring F and α.
The angle α may be measured directly by comparing the force
and arm angle wave forms. It may also be determined indirectly
by measuring the area of hysteresis loop formed by displaying
the force and arm angle deflection in X-Y form. In this case α
can be calculated as follows :

α=arcsin [E/(F ℓ πФ)]………………………………………..3)

where :
α is the phase angle between arm deflection and force (rad)
E is the area of the moment/angular deflection loop (J)
F is the peak force (N)
ℓ is the arm length measured between clamp centre and
effective frame/arm pivot point (m)
Ф is the peak arm deflection (rad)

The test shall be carried out at a frequency between 1 Hz and 2

Hz or specified by customer
From the measurements of F and α, the torsional stiffness Kt
and the damping constant Ht shall be calculated as follows :

Kt = (F x l x cos α) / Ф (Nm/rad)………………………..4)
Ht = Kt x tan α (Nm/rad)………………………..5)

2. Dynamic Characteristic Test

The purpose of this test is to obtain quantitative information
regarding the dynamic characteristics of the spacer damper. The
values obtained during this test will serve as references to evaluate
the behaviour of the same spacer damper under the fatigue test.
The test will consist in the application of sinusoidal movement of the
spacer-damper articulation and measuring the force (F),
displacement (X) and phase angle (Ø) between these two, from
these values, the stiffness (K) and the damping factor (n) will be
calculated.

F
K = ——— Cos Ø; n = Tan Ø
X
The test frequency shall not be higher than 3 Hz. The test shall be
performed at five different displacement amplitudes. The amplitudes
shall be selected to reproduce 10, 20, 40, 60 and 90 percent of the
maximum displacement permitted by the spacer-damper design.
The test shall be performed on three samples.

3. Fatigue Test
The purpose of this test is to evaluate the capacity of the spacer
damper to sustain without damage the cyclic movements which can
be induced by vibrations.
The spacer damper articulation shall be subjected to cyclic motions
for a total of 10 million cycles. The test frequency shall be between 2
and 3 Hz. The amplitude of motion shall be established on the
following basis :

- the load applied on the spacer damper clamp shall not be less
than ± 300 N.
- the clamp displacement under the applied load shall not be less
than 60% of the maximum displacement permitted by the design.
- if the 300 N load generates movement exceeding the maximum
permitted displacement, the load can be reduced to limit the
movement to 95% of the maximum displacement.
Acceptance criteria : 1. After the test, the sample shall be subjected to a second
dynamic characteristic test. This test shall be performed at two
amplitudes, 10% and 60% of the maximum displacement.
2. The spacer damper shall show no signs of cracks or
deterioration, loosening of bolts or abnormal wear.
3. The dynamic characteristics (k and n) shall not be less than
60% of the values measured before the fatigue test. The test
shall be performed on three samples.
Equipments : 1. Rubber Fatigue Rig Testing Unit (MC0056)
2. Steel Ruller (QA-041B)
