e) MACHINE COOLING
The 489 thermal capacity used value is reduced exponentially when the motor current is below the
OVERLOAD PICKUP set-
point. This reduction simulates machine cooling. The cooling time constants should be entered for both stopped and run-
ning cases (the generator is assumed to be running if current is measured or the generator is offline). A machine with a
stopped rotor normally cools significantly slower than one with a turning rotor. Machine cooling is calculated using the fol-
lowing formulae:
(EQ 4.31)
(EQ 4.32)
where: TC
used
= thermal capacity used
TC
used_start
= TC
used
value caused by overload condition
TC
used_end
= TC
used
value dictated by the hot/cold curve ratio when the machine is running
(= 0 when the machine is stopped)
t = time in minutes
τ = Cool Time Constant (running or stopped)
I
eq
= equivalent heating current
overload_pickup = overload pickup setpoint as a multiple of FLA
hot / cold = hot/cold curve ratio
