The power generation industry has recently started to invest interest and focus on the single-phase operation of traditional three-phase, wound-field, synchronous generators. This is partially due to a combination of customer requirements and the need to understand the extent of flexibility in their current products. This paper deals with an in-detail analysis of a salient-pole, wound-field, three-phase...
The sizing procedures adopted for the everyday design of electrical machines are well known and consolidated. However, for brushless exciters of field wound, synchronous generators, there is significant room for improvement as the impact of the diodes' commutations in the rotating bridge rectifier are often neglected. This paper deals with the development of a fast analytical, genetic-algorithm-based...
The commutation processes in uncontrolled diode rectifiers have been extensively studied and modelled. However, in some applications, such as electrical power generation, the effects of these processes are often neglected. In low to medium rated, field wound, synchronous generators, the excitation system makes up a significant percentage of the whole generating set. Thus, the voltage drop due to the...
