Practical Project Management for Engineers & TechniciansLiving Online
COPY THIS LINK FOR MORE INFORMATION: bit.ly/1p4HRAH
More and more engineering and technical professionals are making career transitions from product design into project management. This, however, requires formal training and a willingness to learn new skills. All the technical know-how in the world will not deliver a project successfully, without proper project management skills. Unfortunately very few engineering professionals have any degree of formal project management training, which results in a great deal of personal stress as well as cost blowouts and other woes.
To address this problem, the workshop will focus on the critical project related activities such as work breakdown, scheduling, cost control and risk management, and show how these can be performed with software to lighten the project manager's workload. The 'soft' (but equally important) aspects such as team leadership and contract law are also covered in detail. All topics will be supplemented with practical exercises focusing primarily on the areas of electrical/electronic (including instrumentation) and mechanical engineering. If delegates wish to do so, they can choose small projects from their work environment as a basis for the practical exercises.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

Practical Tuning of Industrial Control LoopsLiving Online
This workshop is designed to train you and/or your staff, in the configuration and tuning of industrial
control loops with minimal use of mathematics and formulae. Controllers need to be carefully
matched to the process to work optimally; this matching procedure is called tuning. Controllers that
are not correctly configured and tuned will not perform optimally and will not reduce variability in the
process as they should.
The aim of this workshop is to provide and/or enhance the skills required to configure and tune a
controller for optimum operation. An optimally tuned processed loop is critical for a wide variety of
industries ranging from food processing, chemical manufacturing, oil refineries, pulp and paper mills,
mines and steel mills. Although tuning rules are designed to give reasonably tight control, this may
not always be the objective. Some thought needs to be given when retuning a loop as to whether the
additional effort is justified as there may be other issues which are the cause of the poor control.
These issues will be discussed in some detail in the workshop. At the end of this workshop you will
have the skills to troubleshoot and tune a wide variety of process loops.

COPY THIS LINK INTO YOUR BROWSER FOR MORE INFORMATION: bit.ly/1Htp9ZC
For project managers and engineers involved with hazardous processes, this workshop focuses on the management, planning and execution of automatic safety systems in accordance with IEC 61511, the newly released international standard for process industry safety controls.
IEC 61511 has been recognised by European safety authorities and by USA based process companies as representing the best practices available for the provision of automatic safety systems. The new standard captures many of the well established project and design techniques that have been described since 1996 in ANSI/ISA standard S84 whilst introducing many newer principles based on the master standard IEC 615108. The newly released standard IEC 61511 (published in 3 parts) combines the principles of IEC 61508 and S84 into a practical and easily understood code of practice specifically for end users in the process industries.
This workshop is structured into two major parts to ensure that both managers and engineering staff are trained in the fundamentals of safety system practices. The first part of the workshop, approx the first third, provides an overview of the critical issues involved in managing and implementing safety systems.

Inspection, Testing and Commissioning of Electrical Switchboards, Circuit Bre...Living Online
THE WORKSHOP:
Whether you are designing, specifying, installing, testing or commissioning electrical equipment from small to large commercial and industrial installations, you need to have a thorough understanding of switchboards, switchgear, circuit breakers and associated protective relays.
The overall focus of this workshop is on electrical inspection, testing and commissioning and will commence with a detailed examination of switchgear (and circuit breakers). Circuit breakers are critical components in electrical distribution systems and their operation significantly affects the overall operation of the system. Protection relays are then discussed. These are used in power systems to maximise continuity of supply and are found in both small and large power systems from generation, through transmission, distribution and utilisation of power in plant, industrial and commercial equipment.
We cover commissioning and periodic inspection of cables and their various failure modes and how to detect these faults. The often neglected topic of switchboards will be detailed next, followed by the interesting topic of interfacing to the control system (either PLC’s or other control devices).
Case studies and practical sessions are used throughout to illustrate key practical principles.
This workshop covers key elements in a practical and project focused way. Many people assume (wrongly) that inspecting, testing and commissioning is a fairly straightforward process and is simply a rubber stamp confirmation of a so-called outstanding design. Our experience in the field demonstrates quite the opposite; where the litany of problems ranges from design and installation errors to equipment manufacturing defects. It is best that these problems are identified and corrected before the inevitable downtime comes in an operational installation where many thousands of dollars are lost in correcting the faults. The situation today is made more challenging by the heightened safety requirements and interfacing to low powered electronic control and monitoring devices (such as PLC’s) using software that has to also be verified.

Practical Control Valve Sizing, Selection and MaintenanceLiving Online
THE WORKSHOP
It is claimed that the majority of control valves throughout the world have not been correctly sized and that large numbers operate on manual mode. Whether this is true or not is difficult to establish but we do know that the method of sizing and selecting a control valve for a specific application is generally not well understood. Although there are many factors that need to be taken into account the subject is not difficult to understand if dealt with in a logical manner.
Many maintenance problems result from people treating the symptoms of a problem rather than tackling the true cause – a basic understanding of the principles is all that is usually needed to solve the problem for good. This practical, hands-on workshop is designed to maximise knowledge retention and understanding. It provides an opportunity for participants to discuss with the presenter and others, specific problems and appropriate solutions. All delegates take away a detailed and comprehensive copy of the material presented; therefore minimal note taking is encouraged to ensure maximum delegate participation and attention.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Consulting engineers
Control valve specialists
Electrical engineers
Instrumentation and control engineers and technicians
Maintenance engineers, technicians and planners

Electrical Substation and Switchyard DesignLiving Online
Electrical substations form important nodal points in all power networks. Substations can be of various capacities, voltages, configurations and types depending on what is the application for which the substation is being designed. Location and layout of a substation present a number of challenges to the designer due to a large variety of options available to a designer. There are ever so many constraints too that need to be kept in mind; technical, environmental and naturally financial. Arriving at an optimum design within these constraints is as much an art as it is a science. Designing a substation which will operate with utmost reliability for at the least three or four decades involves a thorough knowledge of the current state-of-the art equipment, emerging technologies, the tools for presenting and evaluating all available options and a good appreciation of power system operation and maintenance. This course will present a comprehensive capsule of all the knowledge essential for a substation designer and walk the participants through the substation design process using a set of interlinked case studies.

Practical IEC 61850 for Substation Automation for Engineers & TechniciansLiving Online
COPY THIS LINK INTO YOUR BROWSER FOR MORE INFORMATION: bit.ly/11AM1oL
Older (‘legacy’) substation automation protocols and hardware/software architectures provided basic functionality for power system automation, and were designed to accommodate the technical limitations of the technologies available at the time. However, in recent years there have been vast improvements in technology, especially on the networking side. This has opened the door for dramatic improvements in the approach to power system automation in substations.
The latest developments in networking such as high-speed, deterministic, redundant Ethernet, as well as other technologies including TCP/IP, high-speed Wide Area Networks and high-performance embedded processors, are providing capabilities that could hardly be imagined when most legacy substation automation protocols were designed.
IEC61850 is a part of the International Electro-technical Commission (IEC) Technical Committee 57 (TC57) architecture for electric power systems. It is an important new international standard for substation automation, and it will have a significant impact on how electric power systems are designed and built in future. The model-driven approach of IEC61850 is an innovative approach and requires a new way of thinking about substation automation. This will result in significant improvements in the costs and performance of electric power systems.
This workshop provides comprehensive coverage of IEC 61850 and will provide you with the tools and knowledge to tackle your next substation automation project with confidence.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

2. The workshop
This workshop is designed for engineers and technicians from a wide range of abilities and
backgrounds and will provide an excellent introduction to the fundamentals of heating,
ventilation and air-conditioning. It commences with a review of psychrometric charts and then
examines the factors that influence design choices, indoor air quality, load calculations and
heating/ventilation and air-conditioning systems. Numerous tips and tricks throughout the
workshop make it very practical and topical to your applications.
Pre-requisites
Fundamental knowledge of basic mechanical plant and operation thereof.
Avril has over 34 years of working experience. He did his apprenticeship
in the early eighties at the South African Airways, Railways and Harbours
as an electrician. He also qualified in the trade of HVAC&R.
His training was essentially in substations (medium to low voltage) and industrial air-
conditioning. He was involved with earthing, surge protection and noise mitigation at the
various substations at the railways, harbours and airways.
Avril has worked on 3000v dc applications at the railways and also acquired substantial
experience in transformers, protective devices, motors, generators, cables, switchgear and
substation design.
Sixteen years ago he invented and built the “Unifridge” which is currently being used and
studied in 30 institutions in South Africa and in one institution in Saudi Arabia.
Avril also lectures electrical engineering technology and HVAC&R at the University of
Johannesburg.
He has worked in Ireland, Angola, England, Germany, Mauritius and Malaysia, solving
industrial engineering problems. He lectures from a hands on approach and is a passionate
instructor.
The fee for each workshop covers all materials
including workshop manual, lunches
and refreshments
