Abstract

Energy audit is systematic and methodological approach to identify and check the usage and wastage of input energy and hence attempts are made to adjust and reduce the energy requirements. In this cotton spinning mill motors of three phase induction motors contribute to more than 75% of the total electrical load. Due to its ruggedness and versatility the three phase induction motors are used in it. Loss of motor efficiency with operation and time is a very common problem in every industry, not only in this industry every other industry faces these challenges every day. This paper deals with scope of energy savings by improving the power factor and thereby increasing the efficiency of motors by energy audit analysis in Spinning mill. A comparison is also being studied and analysed for efficiency of old motor with energy efficient motor that would be useful in finding the areas where the energy can be saved, scope for saving of energy, cost, CO2 emission by replacing this old rewound/faulty motors with energy efficient motors so the electrical energy can be significantly reduced up to 10%-15% with more efficient components.
