IEEE EMC Women in Engineering North America Virtual Event – Build a Career in Aerospace: Improv Games and Tiger Teams

Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/471197

Our WIE guest speaker Stephanie Zajac, from Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory will speak about her career path into the aerospace industry, the significance of mentorship, and saying “yes” to the unexpected opportunities that arise. Stephanie will also share her insights into the multi-institution effort to save the Europa Clipper spacecraft from a potential launch delay due to the late discovery of an untested vulnerability to one of Clipper’s most common electronic parts: the humble transistor. Co-sponsored by: IEEE EMC Women in Engineering Agenda: 11:00am - 11:10am ET Welcome and Speaker introduction by Tara Kellogg, WIE North America Coordinator, IEEE EMC Society 11:10am - 11:45am ET Present by WIE Guest Speaker Stephanie Zajac, Radiation Effects Engineer from Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory 11:45am - 12:00pm ET Q&A Session Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/471197

Partial Discharge Fundamentals

Bldg: Bechtel Energy Building #3, 2105 Citywest Place, Houston, Texas, United States, 77042

Two Night Seminar Covering Partial Discharge Fundamentals: Abstract: On-line partial discharge monitoring has become a useful tool over the past 30 years to determine the condition of the electrical insulation in motor and generator stator windings rated 4 kV and above. With the installation of suitable PD sensors, the monitoring is done during normal operation of the motor or generator. Although PD testing cannot indicate the exact time of failure, by trending the results over time, PD monitoring can help to determine when stator winding maintenance is prudent, usually with at least 2 years of warning. The seminar will cover the following topics: • Stator winding insulation components • Insulation failure mechanisms • What is partial discharge • Methods to monitor PD on line • Basic interpretation. The seminar will be largely test-vendor agnostic. Co-sponsored by: Donald G.
