Abstract:
Thesis (MTech (Electrical Engineering))--Cape Technikon, Cape Town, 2003<br>The aim of the thesis is to investigate and develop a technique for predicting the flicker emission of sawmill loads. The technique makes use of an empirical formula to calculate the characteristic coefficient of a sawmill motor (Ksm) and depends upon the short term flicker severity level (Ps,), load size and fault level.Three types of sawmill loads are commonly found in South Afiican plants, namely the Circular, Multi-rip, and Frame Saws. A sawmill plant was selected as a benchmark and Ksm factors for these types

Deploying dynamic work routines within the sawmill yard is not readily feasible in real time, so discrete event simulation model has been investigated to be able to report optimal work order depending on the situations.

Such inspection is time-consuming and many quality-controlling features are not visible on the surface, thus very much prone to error.
