Synchronous Generator
By: Mubarek Kurt
INTRODUCTION A synchronous machine rotates at a constant speed in the
steady state. Unlike induction machines, the rotating air gap field and the
rotor in the synchronous machine rotate at the same speed, called the synchronous speed.
Sync. Machine are used primarily as generators of electrical power (Hydro, nuclear or thermal power stations).
Like most rotating machines, a synchronous machine can also operate as both a generator and a motor.

INTRODUCTION CONT. An important feature of a synchronous motor is that it
can draw either lagging or leading reactive current from ac supply system.
Its rotor poles are excited by a DC current and its stator winding (or armature winding) are connected to the AC supply.
MubarekKurt
CONSTRUCTION OF 3 PHASE SYNCHRONOUS MACHINES
The stator of the 3 phase sync. Machine has a 3 phase distributed winding similar to that of the 3 phase induction machine.
The stator winding, which is connected to the ac supply system, is sometimes called the armature winding. It is designed for high voltage and current.
The rotor has a winding called the field winding, which carries direct current. The field winding on the rotating on the structure is normally fed from an external dc source through slip rings and brushes.

CONSTRUCTION OF 3 PHASE SYNCHRONOUS MACHINES CONT.
Synchronous machines can be broadly divided into 2 groups as follows:
a) High speed machines with cylindrical (or non-salient pole) rotors.
b) Low-speed machines with salient pole rotors.

SYNCHRONOUS GENERATOR-CONSTRUCTION-

THE SPEED OF ROTATION OF A SYNC. GENERATOR
Syn. Gen. are by definition sync., meaning that the electrical freq. is locked in or synchronized with mechanical rate of rotation of the gen.
The electrical frequency is synchronized with the mechanical rate of rotation
Relationship between magnetic field speed and electrical frequency,
nm is motor speed in RPM
MubarekKurt
EXAMPLE 1 Determine the rotor speed in RPM of the following 3
phase synchronous machinesa) f=60Hz, number of poles=6b) f=50Hz, number of poles=12c) f=400Hz, number of poles=4

THE INTERNAL GENERATED VOLTAGE OF A SYNC. GEN.
The magnitude of the voltage induced in a given stator phase is
This voltage depends on the flux, ɸ in the machine, the freq. or speed of rotation, and the machine construction. The equation can be simplified as follow

THE EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT OF A SYN. GEN.
• The voltage, Ea is not usually the voltage that appears at the terminals, Vt of the generator.
• In fact, the only time the internal voltage Ea is the same as the output voltage, Vt of a phase is when there is no armature current flowing in the machine.
• There are some factors that cause the diff. between Ea and Vt
a) The distortion of the air gap magnetic field by he current flowing in the stator, called Armature reaction
b) Self inductance of the armature coilc) Resistance of the armature coild) The effect of salient pole rotor shapes
MubarekKurt
THE EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT OF A SYN. GEN. CONT. We will explore the effects of the first three factors and
derive a machine model from them. The effect of a salient pole shape on the operation of a
sync. Machine will be ignored; in other words, all the machine in this note are assumed to have non-salient or cyclindrical rotors.
MubarekKurt
THE EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT OF A SYN. GEN. CONT.
The first effect mentioned, and normally the largest one is armature reaction.
To understand armature reaction, please refer below.
The figure shows a 2 pole rotor spinning inside a 3 phase stator. There is no load connected to the stator.
The rotor magnetic field BR produces an internal generated voltage Ea.
With no load, thus Ea=Vt
MubarekKurt
THE EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT OF A SYN. GEN. CONT
Now suppose that the gen. is connected to a lagging load. Because the load is lag. The peak current will occur at an angle behind the peak voltage.
MubarekKurt
THE EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT OF A SYN. GEN. CONT
This current flowing in the stator windings produces a magnetic field of its own, Bs and produces a voltage of its own in the stator, Estat.
With 2 voltages present in the stator winding, the total voltage in a phase is just sum of internal generated voltage Ea and armature reaction voltage Estat.

THE EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT OF A SYN. GEN. CONT
Since the angle of Ea and BR is the same and the angle of Estat and Bs are the same, the resulting magnetic field will coincide with net voltage, Vt.
First note that, the voltage Estat lies at an angle 90 degree behind current IA, thus the armature reactionn voltage can be expressed as

EXAMPLE 2 A 3 phase, 5KVA, 208 V, 4 pole, 60 Hz, star connected sync.
Machine has negligible stator winding resistance and a sync. Reactance of 8 ohms per phase at rated terminal voltage.
The machine is first operated as a generator in parallel with a 3phase, 208 V, 60 Hz
a) Determine the excitation voltage and the power angle when the machine is delivering rated KVA at a 0.8 lagging. Draw the phasor diagram for this condition.
b) If the field excitation current is now increased by 20 %(without changing the prime mover), find the stator current , power factor and reactive KVA supplied by the machine.
c) With the field current as in (a) the prime mover power is slowly increased. What is the steady state stability limit? What are the corresponding values of the stator (or armature) current, PF, and reactive power at the max. power transfer condition? Draw the phasor diagram for this condition.

MEASURING SYN. GEN. MODEL PARAMETERSPurpose of test is to determine these parameters:
a) Field current and flux relationship (and therefore between the field current and Ea)
b) Synchronous reactancec) Armature resistance
Open circuit and short circuit tests should be performed in order to get all parameters
MubarekKurt
SYNCHRONOUS GENERATOR-TESTING (OPEN CIRCUIT)-Procedures:1) Generators is rotated at the rated speed2) No load is connected at the terminals and field current,
If is set to zero. 3) Field current is increased from 0 to maximum and the
terminal Voltage Vt is measured at each step along the way. With terminal open IA=0, Ea=Vt
4) Record values and plot graph of the terminal voltage and field current value. This plot is called open circuit characteristic (OCC) of a generator.
MubarekKurt
IA = 0, so EA = V, possible to plot EA or VT vs IF graph. It is possible to find internal generated voltage for any given field current
The iron saturated, mmf getting slow down due to increasing reluctance of the iron

MubarekKurt
SYNCHRONOUS GENERATOR-TESTING (SHORT CIRCUIT)-Procedures of short circuit test:1) Generator is rotated at rated speed2) Adjust field current to 03) Short circuit the terminals through a set of ammeters. 4) Measure armature current, Ia or line current as the
field current is increased and plot the graph. This graph is known as short-circuit characteristic (SCC).
MubarekKurt
The net magnetic field is very small, the iron is not saturated, so the relationship is linear

SYN. GEN. CAPABILITY CURVES There are 2 factors that determine the power limits of
electric machines. One is mechanical torque on the shaft of the machine,
and the other is the heating of the machine’s windings. In all practical syn. Motors and generators, the shaft is
strong enough mechanically to handle a much larger steady state power than the machine is rated for, so the practical steady state limits are set by heating in the machine windings.
MubarekKurt
SYN. GEN. CAPABILITY CURVES CONT. The stator and rotor heat limits, together with any
external limits on a syn. Gen. can be expressed in graphical form by a gen. capability diagram.
A capability diagram is a plot of complex power, S=P+jQ. It is derived from the phasor diagram of the generator., assuming that the V is constant at the machine rated voltage.
MubarekKurt
CAPABILITY CURVE
MubarekKurt
Problem statement; Notice that for some possible current angles the required EA
exceeds E A,max . If the generator were operated at the rated armature current and these power factors, the field winding would burn up.
Based upon these limits, there is a need to plot the capability of the synchronous generator. This is so that it can be shown graphically the limits of the generator.
A capability diagram is a plot of complex power S=P+jQ. The capability curve can be derived back from the voltage phasor of the synchronous generator.

On the voltage axes, the origin of the phasor diagram is at -Vf on the horizontal axis, so the origin on the power diagram is at:
The field current is proportional to the machine’s flux, and the flux is proportional to E A = Kfw. The length corresponding to E A on the power diagram is:
The armature current I A is proportional to X S I A , and the length corresponding to X S I A on the power diagram is 3VfI A .

EXAMPLE 11A 480-V 400-kVA 0.85-PF-lagging 50-Hz four-pole Δ-connected generator is driven by a 500-hp diesel engine and is used as a standby or emergency generator. This machine can also be paralleled with the normal power supply (a very large power system) if desired.
