Five major expectations for the development of LED lighting industry in 2017

On December 30, 2016, the National Semiconductor Lighting Engineering Research and Development and Industry Alliance Industry Research Institute (CSA Research) released the "2016 China Semiconductor Lighting Industry Development White Paper", the white paper made an expected analysis of the industry development in 2017, CSA Research pointed out that 2017 Year, Intelligent, Connected December 30, 2016, National Semiconductor Lighting Engineering R&D and Industry Alliance Industry Research Institute (CSA Research) released "2016 China Semiconductor Lighting Industry Development White Paper", white paper to make expected analysis of 2017 industry development CSA Research pointed out that in 2017, new technologies and economic changes such as intelligence, Internet +, and sharing economy will accelerate the development of semiconductor lighting technology and application areas. At the same time, with the successive introduction and implementation of national planning and projects such as the 13th Five-Year Semiconductor Lighting Industry Plan and the Green Photo IV, the semiconductor lighting industry will usher in new development opportunities and challenges in 2017. First, the basic and cutting-edge technology continues to break through, the lighting quality further enhances the silicon-based yellow light LED light effect is expected to break through 140lm / W, the deep ultraviolet LED external quantum efficiency will also increase to about 15%, the output power at room temperature will exceed 30mW, which will Accelerate the penetration of UV LEDs in the field of sterilization, disinfection and purification; with the gradual solution of problems such as materials, reliability and price, the cost-effective advantages of CSP are gradually highlighted, and it is expected to achieve large-scale production. In addition, in order to improve the light quality, it is necessary to further strengthen the application of basic theory research such as color rendering, non-visual effect and visual comfort; in light biosafety and light medicine, combined with physiology, medicine, psychology, sociology, etc., research light Research on the influence mechanism of physiology and pathology, and gradually establish a quantitative evaluation system supported by big data. Second, the application segmentation trend is obvious, niche market or new growth point 2016 small-pitch display, automotive LED, mobile phone LED flash and other market segments are concerned; bio-agriculture lighting, light medical, communication, security, sterilization, etc. Innovative applications will be the new growth point and long-term growth engine after the replacement phase. Driven by urbanization, Internet of Things, and smart city construction, small-pitch LEDs continue to exert strength in the field of large-screen splicing, accelerating penetration, and competing with DLP and LCD products. It is expected that the domestic small-pitch LED market will continue to grow rapidly in 2017. The growth rate is over 40%. The overall LED color of vehicles is on the rise. It is expected that the market size will exceed 10 billion yuan in 2017. UVLED's global market size in 2017 will reach 270 million US dollars, which is expected to exceed 1/3 of the entire UV light source market, thus forming a situation of resistance to ultraviolet mercury vapor lamps. Third, industrial resources are further agglomerated, and cross-border integration has become mainstream. With the capital market, large enterprises have further concentrated their resources through mergers and acquisitions, and continue to grow bigger and stronger. SMEs need to dig deep into the market segment and do a good job in order to find a way. In addition, in addition to the integration of next-generation information technologies such as the Internet of Things and big data, the trend of LED and intelligent manufacturing, LED and cultural industries, manufacturing and service integration is further evident. Cross-border, integration and development will be the mainstream of the industry in 2017. Fourth, the overall growth rate of the market slowed down, and risk control management needs to be strengthened. In 2017, the macroeconomic situation at home and abroad is still complicated and changeable. The moderate recovery of the economies of the United States, Japan and Europe, as well as the expected depreciation of the renminbi, will benefit exports, which will slow down the decline in the export of LED lighting products since 2016. In 2017, the domestic economy is still bottoming out. In addition to the strict regulation of real estate in the country since October 2016, the brake effect will continue to be conveyed to the building materials industry for several months. It is expected that the growth rate of the LED lighting market will be released in the first half of 2017. Slow, while the slowdown in downstream demand will also lead to a decline in the growth rate of the middle and upper reaches. At the same time, the price of a new round of PPI started to rise in the third quarter of 2016, and the cost of labor and raw materials of the company may rise. In addition, as the penetration rate of the general lighting market increases, niche markets such as agricultural lighting, small-pitch displays, automotive LEDs, UV LEDs, and IR LEDs will continue to be launched in 2017. Therefore, in 2017, companies need to pay attention to prevent risks, do a good job in strategy and cost management, and avoid price competition in the Red Sea. The five, thirteenth and five-fifth plans have been issued one after another, and the central and local support efforts are not reduced. The 13th Five-Year Semiconductor Lighting Industry Plan will be released in early 2017. The introduction of the “Planning” will clearly define the industry's next development focus and development mode. In addition, the promotion of the semiconductor lighting market transformation, promotion of energy-saving and environmental protection new light source (Green Photo IV) project (GEF-SSLED), will play a positive role in the semiconductor lighting market transformation, application demonstration, quality assurance. Jiangxi Nanchang and other places will successively launch specific measures and programs to further increase policy support to promote the rapid accumulation and development of local industries, and to form distinctive optical valleys, photoelectric towns, and smart towns. In addition, with the promotion and implementation of the “Planning the Belt and Road Construction Science and Technology Innovation Cooperation Special Plan” and other policies, it will continue to promote Chinese enterprises to go global.

The insulation breakdown accident often occurred in generator. It includes interphases short circuit, inter-turn short circuit and ground fault.

    The interphase short circuit: the generator windings ends will be greatly impacted by electric power and may make the coil end deformed under two-phase or three-phase short circuit and differential protection tripping happening.

   Inter-turn short circuit: Generator outlet blasting, if it continues a long time, the stator copper wire will be melted. When no-load run, the generator three-phase voltage will be imbalance.

   Ground fault: Generator breakdown location is in the linear portion or notch position and stator ground protection act. The insulation resistance value between stator ground and ground is zero or minimum.

   The fundamental reason of generator insulation breakdown is that the stator coil insulation is weak or there is a corona etching in notch in run time. The treatment method is to find the point of breakdown and reworked and reinforced insulation. At the same time, eliminating the corona etching in a maximum extent is important.

III. A large noise or vibration with generator

   The reasons of a large noise or vibration with generator are:

   1. Foundation bolts loose, or STG subsidence. Treatment: fastening bolts. Recalibration concentricity.

   2. Generator rotor and Steam Turbine shaft are misalignment. Treatment: calibration concentricity.

   3. Bearing wall worn or damaged under short oil. Treatment: repaired bearing or replace a new bearing with same model.

   4. There is a friction between the stator and rotor. Treatment: find the friction location and reason, and then eliminate it.

   5. Fan or other fasteners loose. Treatment: Tighten fan and fasteners.

   6. Rotor coil partial short circuit, two points grounding or wiring errors. Treatment: please inspect the insulation of slip ring and the rotor coil to the ground. Or connect to the DC power source and check the voltage drop of each coil, winding direction and wiring method. So we can identify the cause of the malfunction and eliminate them.

  7. Brush is too hard, or the pressure is too large. Treatment: adjust the pressure or replace the same type of brush.

  8. Three-phase current are severe asymmetry. Treatment: please investigate that the three-phase current imbalance is in the allowable range or not. If it is not in the allowable range, please adjust three-phase load or reduce the load.

   9. Stator winding short circuit or ground. Treatment: Find out the fault and repair it.

   10. External fault or lightning strike. Treatment: if the vibration time is too long, please stop the STG and inspect.

Typical

cases:

   This is a 15 MW generator from a Shandong customer. The vibration of generator is reached to 0.12mm in running. After inspection the generator, we found that rotor dynamic AC impedance upheaval 12% in 2400-2700 and the dynamic inter-turn short circuit is serious. It destroys the balance of the magnetic field and causes the electromagnetic force uneven of generator rotor. After removal of the rotor retaining ring and treatment the rotor inter-turns, we start the STG. The vibration is about 0.01mm.

IV. The temperature of a generator is too high.

   Generally the temperature of a generator will be in the allowable value, if the generator running normally and the current, voltage, frequency, power, excitation current and power factor are all within the allowable fluctuation range. If a generator stator, core and other parts temperature are too high, please consider the following cases:

   1. Generator overload operation and exceed the allowable time. Treatment: Please reduce the generator load to the rated load or under rated load as soon as possible.

   2. Three-phase current are serious imbalance. Treatment: please find out the reason of imbalance. If it is the voltage causing, please check if it is the generator inter-turn short circuit. If it is load causing, please adjust the load and make it balance.

   3. The ventilation cooling system of generator is poor. For example, the temperature is too high, the air duct or exhaust duct are blocked, the coil and its ends are serious fouling. Treatment: please reduce the load suitability, improve ventilation, and remove fouling.

   4. The stator winding portion short circuit or ground. Treatment: Find out the short circuit or ground point and repair them, and then eliminate short circuit or ground risks.

   5. Insulation of the stator core may be partially damaged and short circuit, so there is a vortex and overheat. Treatment: please reduce the load suitability. If the generator reduces its efficiency obviously, please repair the generator stator core.

   6. The bearing is short of lubricating oil. The oil number is wrong. The oil quality is bad. The bearing is installed with a wrong way or the bearing is damaged. Treatment: please find out the reason and then replace the oil or clean, adjust or replace bearing.

V. Generator rotor ground

   Symptom: Generator grounding one point or two points grounding light plate light.

   Fault Analysis: Generator rotor winding insulation damage, coil deformity and severe dust and greasy attached in the ends seriously are all leading to the grounding of the generator rotor windings. When the generator rotor winding grounding in one point, there is electrical current pass as the ground does not constitute an electrical circuit.

However, after one point grounded, it is easy of leading another grounding point. If any part in excitation circuit ground, it can form ground fault of two or more points ground. It is very dangerous.

After the failure, the rotor windings are short-circuited. Because of the small winding DC resistance, the excitation current will increase. So the magnetic field of generator is out of balance, and main magnetic flux reduces largely. So the STG will vibrant strongly. Meanwhile the power factor of the generator will be increased significantly and get into leading phase running (absorption of reactive power from the grid).

   The stator field becomes in the frond and the rotor field becomes in the back. It will make the stator current increases. If the watcher notice that there is no excitation varying but the excitation current and stator current suddenly increases, and the excitation voltage and AC voltage are all suddenly drop, and power factor meter indicates increasing or leading phase, it means the generator rotor grounded or inter-turn short circuited. You should shut down the STG and blow-out magnetic. Please inspect the excitation system and rotor windings, and find out the short circuit point and treat it.  

VI. Excitation upgrading and generator test

   Excitation system upgrading, brushless exciter changes into the SCR excitation and make the generator maintenance easily. And it removes the disadvantage of brushless excitation dynamic adjustment slowly. The generator test includes stator insulation resistance test, the absorption ratio test, the iron loss test, leak test, AC and DC voltage withstand test, the rotor high speed balancing and overspeed test, dynamic and static AC impedance test, the generator no-load test, short circuit test, temperature rise test, residual pressure measurement, axis voltage measurement.
