SYNCHRO TRANSMITTER & RECEIVER PAIR

A synchro is an electromagnetic transducer commonly used to convert an angular

position of a shaft into an electric signal.

The basic synchro is usually called a synchro transmitter. Its construction is similar to

that of a three phase alternator. The stator (stationary member) is of laminated silicon steel and

is slotted to accommodate a balanced three phase winding which is usually of concentric coil

type (Three identical coils are placed n the stator with their axis 120 degree apart) and is Y

connected. The rotor is a dumb bell construction and wound with a concentric coil. An AC

voltage is applied to the rotor winding through slip rings. Ref. Fig. No.1A.

Let an AC voltage Vr (t) = Vr sin Wct (1) be supplied to the rotor of the synchro

transmitter. Thisvoltage causes a flow of magnetizing current in the rotor coil which produces a

sinusoidally time varying flux directed along its axis and distributed nearly sinusoidal, in the air

gap along stator periphery. Because of transformer action, voltages are induced in each of the

stator coils. As the air gap flux is sinusoidally distributed, the flux linking any stator coil is

proportional to the cosine of the angle between rotor and stator coil axis and so is the voltage

induced in each stator coil.

The stator coil voltages are of course in time phase with each other. Thus we see that the

synchro transmitter (TX) acts like single phase transformer in which rotor coil is the primary and

the stator coils form three secondaries.

Let Vs1 N, Vs2 N and Vs3 respectively be the voltages induced in the stator coils S1, S2

and S3 with respect to the neutral. Then for the rotor position of the synchro transistor shown in

fig.No.1 where the rotor axis makes an angle 0 with the axis of the stator coil S2.

Let Vs1N = KVr sin Wct cos (0+120) (2)

Vs2N = KVr sin Wct cos (0) (3)

Vs3N = KVr sin Wct cos (0+240) (4)


28/70

SRM UNIVERSITY


The three terminal voltages of the stator are

Vs1s2 = Vs1NVs2N

= 3 KVr sin (0=240) sin Wct (5)

Vs2S3 = Vs2NVs3N

= 3 KVr sin (0+120) sin Wct (6)

= 3 KVr sin (0) sin Wct (7)

When 0 is zero from equation (2) and (3) it is seen that maximum voltage is induced in the stator

coil s2 while it follows from equation (7) that the terminal voltage Vs3s1 is zero. This position

of rotor is defined as the electrical zero of the Tx and is used as a reference for specifying the

angular position of the rotor.

Thus it is seen that the input to the synchro transmitter is the angular position of its rotor

shaft and the output is a set of three single phase voltages given by equation (5), (6) and (7). The

magnitudes of these voltage are functions of a shaft position.

The classical synchro systems consists of two units.

1. Synchro transmitter (Tx)

2. Synchro rceiver (Tr)

The synchro receiver is having almost the same constructional features. The two units

are connected as shown in figure No.2. Initially the winding S2 of te stator of transmitter is

positioned for maximum coupling with rotor winding. Suppose its voltage is V. The coupling

between S1 and S2 of the stator and primary (Rotor) winding is a cosine function. Therefore the

effective voltages in these winding are proportional to cos 60 degrees or they are V/2 each. So

long as the rotors of the transmitters and receivers remain in this position, no current will flow

between windings because of voltage balance.

When the rotor of Tx is moved to a new position, the voltage balance is disturbed.

Assume that the rotor of Tx is moved through 30 degrees, the stator winding voltages will be

changed to zero, 0.866V and 0.866V respectively. Thus there is a voltage imbalance between

the windings causes currents to 1 flow through the close circuit producing torque that tends to

rotate the rotor of the receiver to a new position where the voltage balance is again restored.


29/70

SRM UNIVERSITY


This balance is restored only if the receiver turns through the same angle as the transmitter and

also the direction of the rotation is the same as that of Tx.

The Tx Tr pair thus serves to transmit information regarding angular position at one point

to a remote point.

System Description and Operation

The system set up is made up of synchro transmitter and synchro receiver on a single

rigid base provided with suitable swithes and anodized angular plates. The system also contains

a step down transformer for providing excitation to the rotors. Suitable test points for rotor (R1

and R2) and stator (S1, S2 and S3) for both Tx and Tr are provided.

Operating Instructions

Experiment No.1 : Study of synchro transmitter

In this part of the experiment we can see how, because of the transformer action, the

angular position of the rotor of synchro transmitter is transformed into a unique set of stator

voltages.

Procedure:

1. connect the mains supply to the system with the help of cable provided. Do not

connected any patch cords to terminals marked S1, S2 and S3

2. Switch on mains supply for the unit.

3. Starting from zero position, note down the voltage between stator winding terminals i.e

Vs1s2, Vs2s3 and Vs3s1 in a sequential manner. Enter readings in a tabular form and

plot a graph of angular position of rotor voltages for all three phases.

4. Note that zero position of the stator rotor coinsides with Vs2s1 voltage equal to zero

voltage. Do not disturb this condition.

SPEED TORQUE CHARACTERISTICS OF AC SERVO MOTOR

Introduction

An AC servo motor is basically a two phase induction motor except for certain special

design feature. A two phase induction motor consisting of two stator windings oriented 90

degrees electrically apart in space and excited by ac voltage which magnitude and 90 degrees.

Generally voltages of equal magnitude and 90 degrees phase difference are applied to the two

stator phases thus making their respective fields 90 degrees apart in both time and space, at

synchronous speed. As the field sweeps over the rotor, voltages are induced in it producing

current in the short circuited rotor. The rotating magnetic field interacts with these currents

producing a torque on the rotor in the direction of field rotation.

The shape of the characteristics depends upon ratio of the rotor reactance (X) to the rotor

resistance (R). In normal induction motors X/R ratio is generally kept high so as to obtain the

maximum torque close to the operating region which is usually around 5% slip.

A two phase servo motor differs in two ways from normal induction motor.

1. The rotor of the servo motor is built with high resistance so that its X/R ratio is small and

the torque speed characteristics is as shown in the figure (2).

Curve (3) is nearly linear in contrast to highly non linear characteristics with large X/R.

It must emphasized that if a conventional induction motor with high X/R ratio is used for

servo applications, then because of the positive slope for part of the characteristics, the

system using such a motor becomes unstable.

The motor construction is usually squirrel cage or drag cup type. The diameter of the

rotor is kept small in order to reduce intertia and thus to obtain good accelerating

2. In servo applications, the voltages applied to the two stator windings are seldom

balanced. On of the phases known as the phase known as the control phase with respect

to the voltage supplied to the reference windings and it has a variable magnitude and

polarity. (fig.2). The control winding voltage is supplied from a servo amplifier. For low

power applications, AC servo motors are preferred because they are light weight, rugged

and there are no brush contacts to maintain.

Description of the set up

The motors which is required to be tested is mounted on a small but sturdy pedestal. The

motor is having extension of shafts on both the sides.

Speed variation and speed measurement

The reference winding of the motor is excited from a fixed voltage of 100 volts. The

control winding voltage is obtained through an R-C combination. The voltage available to

control winding is varied by the control of resistance R. The capacitance is used to generate a

phase shift. By varying the magnitude of the control voltage, it is possible to vary the speed of

the AC servo motor. The secondary of the transformer T1 provided the reference winding and

control winding voltage.

On one of the sides of the shaft, a metallic disk with 20 holes (1/4 d ia) is mounted. A

photo transistor and light source arrangement is located on the two sides of the disc; so that the

light beam is regularly interrupted by the hole No- hole arrangement of the disc. The photo

transistor conducts when light is incident on it and acts almost as an open circuit when no light is

falling on it.

In the process the cct generates a train of pulses. The number of pulses per second is

directly proportional to the revolutions persecond. It means for 1500 RPM disc speed, the disc

would be completing 25 revolutions per second and with 20 holes on the disc, 500 pulses would

be generated by the photo pick up in the second. Thus for a sped of 750 rpm, 250 pulses would

be developed by the photo pick up. These pulses are wave shaped by amplifier and a Schmitt

trigger cct. Finally they are fed to a monostable cct which produces constant width and constant

height pulses. Consequently the meter deflection is proportional to the number of pulses per

second and hence to the rpm of the motor under test. There is a preset in services with the meter

which works as a calibrating control.

A full wave output of a rectifier produces a fixed frequency of 100Hz (within + or1%

accuracy) and the same is used as a standard frequency for effecting calibration on the speed

indication. The preset marked PR1 is to be adjusted for 20% of F.S.D or to 300 rpm. The

switch SW4 is thrown back to normal mode after carrying out calibration check up.

Torque Measurement

In order to measure torque produced by the AC servo motor, we must have an

arrangement to produce a variable load on the AC servo motor. The ac servomotor is

mechanically coupled to a small dc machine (a permanent magnet dc motor or generator) on the

remaining side of the extended shaft. A variable dc current is required to be passed on through

the dc motor. The polarity of the current is such as to produce an opposite torque as a result of

its interaction with the field of the permanent magnet.

In can be proved that the electrical power developed by the AC servo motor is given by

the product of back emf generated by the dc machine and current we are forcing through the

armature by means of a variable resistance and the constant voltage source. By varying the

resistance, the current is changing and the opposite torque is also changing. We have to use the

following formula to find the torque in gm-cm.

where Eb = Back E.M.F

Ia = Armature current

When P = power in watts

= Eb x Ia

N = R.P.M

It P is in milliwatt, proper substitution must be made in the result.

In this formula, Eb can be found by measuring the generated emf across the armature

terminal for a given speed. As the field is constant the output emf (hence back emf) is

proportional to the shaft speed, with armature circuit open circuited, we can run the machine as a

dc generator and find slope (volt/rpm) for the given dc machine.

Ia is measured by ammeter which is connected in series with the power supply and the

variable resistance (LOAD CONTROL). This method does not take into account the no load

torque developed by the ac servomotor. To measure the torque developed at no load (i.e torque

just required to rotate speed measuring disc, rotor of ac servomotor, rotor of dc motor) the ac

servomotor is switched off. Now the dc machine run as the motor with the help of the dc power

supply, speed bring controlled by variable resistance. Again we have to effect the measurement

of Ia for a given speed. From the product of Eb (back emf developed by the motor) and armature

current taken, we can find the mechanical power developed at the motor shaft. Again we must

use the formula

For various speeds, we can note down the no load torque required to be developed by motor.

This torque is negligible and may not be taken into account for normal testing.

Speed torque characteristics of AC servo motor.

Study all the controls carefully on the front panel.

1. Keep the switch SW3 in upward position, indicating that the armature circuit of dc

machine is not connected to auxiliary power supply (12 volts), switch SW2 should also

be in off position.

2. Ensure P1 and P2 are in fully anticlockwise position.

3. Now, switch on SW1 and also switch on SW2. You can observe that AC servomotor will

start rotating and the speed will be indicated by the meter M1 on the front panel. (It is

assumed that calibration procedure is already carried out for speed measurement).

4. With SW3 in OFF condition, vary the speed of the AC servomotor by moving P1 in

clockwise direction and note the emf generated by the dc machine (Now working as dc

generator or tacho). Enter the results in Table No.1 (Use a dc voltmeter in the range 0 to

2 volts or so).

ANALYSIS OF AC SERVOMOTOR SPEED-TORQUE CHARACTERISTICS

We observed that the torque speed curves are not straight lines. Therefore a linear

differential equation cannot be used to represent the exact motor characteristics. Sufficient

accuracy may be obtained by approximating the characteristics by straight lines. The following

analysis is based on this assumption.

(Reference : - feedback control system analysis & synthesis by J.J.DAZZO & H.Houpis . Page

for a load consisting of inertial & damping, the load torque required is,

TL = JDW = BW (3)

Where D is operator

Since the generated load & torque must be equal, from equations (1) & (3) we have,

Kcec + Kww = JDw + Bw (4)

Rearranging terms,

JDw + (B-Kw)w = Kcec (5)

In terms of (position), this equation can be written as,

JD26 + (B-Kw) DQ = Kcec (6)

In order for the system to be stable, the coefficient (b-Kw) must be positive. Observation

of the motor characteristics shows that Kw -W

Description

Compensation is essentially a compromise between steady state accuracy and relative

stability.

a) Load Compensation: There are many ways to realize continuous time lead

compensators of which one is an electrical RC network. Lead compensators

essentially yields an appreciable improvement in transient response and a small

change in steady state accuracy. It way accentuate high frequency noise effects. A

lead compensator is basically a high pass filter i. high frequencies are passed.

b) Lag Compensation: This yields an appreciable improvement in steady state accuracy

at the expense of increasing the transient response time. It will suppers the effect of

high frequency noise effects. It permits a high gain at low frequencies which

improves steady state performance. In lag compensation we use attenuation

characteristic at high frequencies rather than the phase lag characteristic. Lag

compensation increases the low frequency gain and thus improves the steady

accuracy of the system, but reduced the speed of response due to reduced bandwidth.

Procedure

1. The connections are given as per the circuit diagram

2. Using function generator, input is given and the output is observed at the CRO

3. For different values of frequencies, the values of a, b and output voltage are

determined.

4. The graph is drawn by taking frequencies along X-axis and magnitude and phase

along Y-axis.

STABILITY ANALYSIS OF LINEAR SYSTEMS

Aim

To analyze the stability of the linear systems using Bode / Root locus / Nyquist plot,

using MATLAB Software tool.

Theory

Bode Plot:

The bode plot is the frequency response plot of the transfer function of a system. A bode

plot consists of two graphs. One is a plot of the magnitude of a sinusoidal transfer function

versus log w, the other is a plot of the phase angle of sinusoidal transfer function versus log w.

The bode plot can be drawn for both open loop and closed loop transfer function.

Usually the bode plot is drawn for open loop system. The standard representation of the

logarithmic magnitude of open loop transfer function of G(jw) is 20 where the base of the

logarithm is 10. The nit used in this representation of the magnitude is the decibel, usually

abbreviated db. The curve are drawn on semi log paper, using the log scale (abscissa) for

frequency and the linear scale (ordinate) for either magnitude (in decibels) or phase angle (in

degrees).

The main advantage of the bode plot is that multiplication of magnitudes can be

converted into addition. Also a simple method for sketching an approximate log magnitude

curve is available.

Determination of phase and gain margin from bode plot

The gain margin in db is given by the negative of db magnitude of G(jw) at the phase

cross-over frequency, wpc. The wpc is the frequency at which phase of G(jw) is 1800. If the db

magnitude of G(jw) at wpc is negative then gain margin is positive and vice versa.

Let gc be the phase angle of G(jw) at gain cross over frequency wgc. The wgc is the

frequency at which the db magnitude of G(jw) is zero. Now the phase margin, is given by, =

1800+ gc. If gc is less than1800 then phase margin is positive and vice versa.

Nyquist Stability Criterion


67/70

SRM UNIVERSITY


If the G(S) H(S) contour in the G(S) H(S) plane corresponding to Nyquist contour in the

s-plane encircles the point (-1+j0) in the anticlockwise direction as many times as the number of

halfs-plan poles of G(S) H(S), then the closed loop system is stable.

In examining the stability of linear control systems using the Nyquist stability criterion,

the following three situations.

1. There is no encirclement of -1+j0 point. This implies that the system is stable if there are

no poles of G(S) H(S) in the right half s-plan. If there are poles on right half s-plane then

the system is unstable.

2. An anticlowise encirclement or (or encirclements) of -1+j0 point. In this case the system

is stable if the number of anticlociwise encirclement is same as the number of poles of

G(S) H(S) in the right half s-plane. If the number of encirclement is not equal to number

of poles on right half s-plane then the system is unstable.

3. There is a clockwise encirclement (or encirclement) of the -1+j0 point. In this case the

system is always unstable.

Procedure

1. Write programs for the given transfer function2. Simulate it using MATLAB software

3. Observe the graph

4. Calculate the theoretical values for the time domain specifications and compare with the

observed values.
