PULSE GENERATING SYSTEM

SUPPLY & INSTALLATION

February 2018

1 Existing Fish Dispersal Barriers.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) currently operates an Electric Dispersal Barrier system in the Chicago Sanitary & Ship Canal (CSSC) near Romeoville, Illinois. The existing Dispersal Barriers send rapidly pulsed DC current through electrodes in the canal which creates an electric field in the water that deters the passage of invasive fish. To create a robust system at this location, USACE intends to construct an additional dispersal barrier (Permanent Barrier I) as described in more detail below.

The existing Dispersal Barriers system includes several major facilities and structures, including:

the Demonstration Barrier, Barrier IIA and Barrier IIB. Permanent Barrier I will be installed adjacent to these existing barriers.

The Demonstration Barrier (Barrier I) is located in the CSSC at approximately river mile 296.5.

It consists of twelve steel cables secured just above the canal bottom. The upstream-to-downstream length of the barrier is 54 feet. A rapidly pulsed DC current is sent through the cables creating an electric field in the water that extends to the water surface. The Demonstration Barrier utilizes 4 pulse generating units each comprised of a rectifier, capacitor bank, and an IGBT pulsed power assembly to generate pulsed DC voltage in the water with a maximum field strength at the water surface of 1 volt/inch, a frequency of 5Hz with a pulse duration of 4 mS. There are two 125KVA and two 25KVA pulse generating units. The Demonstration Barrier has been operational since 2002.

Barrier II was designed to have two halves, each actually an independent barrier (Barrier IIA and Barrier IIB). This was done to provide redundancy, so that if one half is off-line for maintenance, whether scheduled or unscheduled, the other half can be operational. Each are electrical barriers similar in principle to the Demonstration Barrier, but both are larger than the Demonstration Barrier and able to generate more powerful electric fields over a larger area.

Barrier IIA is located in the CSSC approximately 1,150 feet downstream of the Demonstration Barrier. Barrier IIA utilizes 3 pulse generating units each comprised of a rectifier, capacitor bank, and IGBT pulsed power assembly to generate a pulsed DC current in the water. Barrier IIA has 32 electrodes over 130 feet upstream-to-downstream on the canal bottom. The electrodes are solid steel billets because it was learned that the steel cable used at the Demonstration Barrier corrode rapidly. Some of the electrodes consist of more than one billet; a total of 42 billets are used for the 32 electrodes. There are two 1.5MW and one 350KW units.

Barrier IIA has two sub-parts known as the wide and narrow arrays. The narrow array extends over approximately 50 feet upstream-to-downstream in the canal and is where the maximum electric field strength of the barrier can be generated. The operating parameters for the narrow array are normally a DC voltage in the water with a maximum field strength at the water surface of 2.3 volts/inch from a source of a DC voltage of @2,200V, @8000A, a frequency of 34 Hz with a pulse duration of 2.3mS. However, these operating parameters can be adjusted. The wide array extends over approximately 80 feet upstream-to-downstream, but can’t generate field strengths as high as the narrow array. The operating parameters for the wide array are normally a DC voltage in the water with a maximum field strength at the water surface of 1 volts/inch from a source of a DC voltage of @800VDC, @2000A, a frequency of 34 Hz with a pulse duration of 2.3mS. The wide array is downstream of the narrow array. Barrier IIA was placed into full time operation in 2009.

Barrier IIB is located in the CSSC approximately 800 feet downstream of the Demonstration Barrier and 220 feet upstream of Barrier IIA. Barrier IIB utilizes equipment with very similar specifications and quantity to the equipment in Barrier IIA. It has the same type, number, and spacing of electrodes as Barrier IIA, and similar operating parameters. Barrier IIB was placed into service in April 2011.

2 Project Scope This document defines the work required by the Contractor (“Contractor”) to provide, install, and commission a pulse generating system (“PGS”) comprised of two pulse generating units with each pulse generating unit comprised of pulse generating equipment with supporting equipment, a PGS Control System, and a Power Monitoring System as part of an integrated system at the Permanent Barrier I Aquatic Nuisance Species Dispersal Barriers (“PB1 Barrier”) facility in Romeoville, Illinois located on the CSSC (Chicago Sanitary Shipping Canal). The pulse generating system will pulse power through two independent underwater electrode arrays already installed. Each array will generate an independent pulsed direct current (DC) electric field in the CSSC.

The PGS will be required to convert the government provided 4160V (AC) alternating current power supply into a pulsed DC current able to operate at an adjustable range within the full range of parameters for Volts, pulse frequency, and pulse duration allowed by the equipment. The PGS shall, at least, provide voltages up to 3000V, currents up 20,000A, with a pulse frequency of 0.5 to 100 Hz within increment adjustments of 0.1 and a pulse duration of 0-1000 milliseconds within increment adjustments of 0.1. The maximum power delivered to a single pulse generating unit can be assumed to be 4.5MW. The normal optimum output parameters from the pulse generating unit can be assumed to be 2500V with a pulse duration of 5ms at 15Hz.

Several components of the PB1 Barrier are either complete, underway or soon to be underway under separate contracts, including: the underwater electrodes and the cabling from the electrodes to the ground surface, the structural building with supporting electrical (lighting, power outlets, grounding systems and supply circuits to equipment other than pulse generating equipment), mechanical (building HVAC, building plumbing, pulse generating mechanical cooling equipment), architectural (doors and windows), civil (exterior site work and fencing), building supporting systems (telecommunications, fire alarm, fire protection, security), building AC power supply (high voltage equipment, medium voltage equipment, backup power generation) including up to the switchgear that feeds the pulse generating system, and corresponding control systems for aforementioned components.

This project will require the Contractor to coordinate with other contractors who may be installing interdependent systems at the PB1 facility, including, as described below, for Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems, Electronic Security Systems (ESS) including integrated video intercom entry system, Electronic Access Control Systems (EACS), and a Close-Circuit Television (CCTV) System. The Contractor will also have to work within the existing site conditions, including the structural building and support systems constructed under separate contracts.

3 Infrastructure Already Built to Support the Permanent Barrier I PGS

The Permanent Barrier 1 Building is a reinforced concrete and masonry building. The rooms intended to hold all the Pulse Generating System equipment are approximately 50 feet by 27 feet, with an 18 feet wide by 14 feet tall opening to access the room from the hallway. The roll up door opening to access the building is approximately 14 feet wide by 14 feet tall.

Electrical power is delivered to the Barrier site via (2) 34.5KV ComEd utility feeders. Each feeder is routed underground and connected to a 7500/9370KVA ONAN/ONAF pad mount utility transformer located just north of the Barrier site. The feeder voltage is stepped down from 34.5KV to 4.16KV at the pad mount utility transformers and the feeders are then routed underground to the Control Gear and Back Up (CGBP) building and connect to (2) switchgear ‘MVS-BUS A1’ and ‘MVS-BUS A2’. In the event of a power outage (2) 3250KW diesel stand-by generators are connected to ‘MVS-BUS A1’ and ‘MVS-BUS A2’ to provide backup power until utility service is restored.

The (2) feeders are then routed underground from the CGBP building to the Barrier building located south of the CGBP building. These feeders enter the Barrier building and connect to (2) switchgear ‘SWGR-BUS-A1’ and ‘SWGR-BUS-A2’ located in ‘Switchgear Room 1’ and ‘Switchgear Room 2’, respectively. Each switchgear includes (1) spare 4.16kV vacuum type circuit breaker to provide power to the pulse generating equipment to be installed in ‘Pulse Generating Unit Room 1’ and ‘Pulse Generating Unit Room 2’ located just north of ‘Switchgear Room 1’ and ‘Switchgear Room2’. Please see one-line diagram on sheet E-600.

The Barrier I closed loop liquid cooling system is designed to provide cooling for the Pulse Generating System equipment. The cooling system consists of two independent cooling loops.

Loop 1 uses processed water as cooling fluid and Loop 2 utilizes deionized water as a cooling fluid. The water loops exchange heat through a Plate and Frame Heat Exchanger.

The processed water loop water pump maintains a constant minimum flow rate of 74 gpm through the Evaporator (Chiller). The WSHP nominal flow rate is 30 gpm. When conductivity levels increase above 0.8 μS, a proportional valve will open a Resin Bed Filter bypass line and allow 1 gpm flow through the Resin Bed Filter. The nominal flow rate through the flow-through expansion tank is 3 gpm.

Below are the operating system temperatures:

Chiller: 88F (EWT, maximum) and 65F (LWT, minimum).

The chiller unit consists of four modules. The three out of the four modules are sufficient to provide the required cooling and the fourth module is included for redundancy purpose. Each module has a nominal capacity of 15 tons. The chiller system total capacity is 88.9 tons. The modular chiller design thermal load is 580,900Btu/hr (48.4 tons).

4 Schedule

The duration for the project is three years. The first year consists of system design with government review and approval. The second year consists of procuring and assembling the PGS equipment and programming the control and monitoring systems. The third year consists of a combination of system testing and commission and providing documents and training of government staff to operate and maintain the system.
