SYNCHRONOUS GENERATOR
Principle of Operation 1) From an external source, the field winding is supplied with a DC current -> excitation. 2) Rotor (field) winding is mechanically turned (rotated) at synchronous speed. 3) The rotating magnetic field produced by the field current induces voltages in the outer stator (armature) winding. The frequency of these voltages is in synchronism with the rotor speed.

SYNCHRONOUS MACHINES
Operation concept
The frequency - speed relation is p is the number of poles.
f = (p / 120) n = p n /120
Typical rotor speeds are 3600 rpm for 2-pole, 1800 rpm for 4 pole and 450 rpm for 16 poles. The rms. value of the induced voltages is:
EA = 4.44 N BA f , (BA = )
where: N = number of turns, B= flux density, A = cross sectional area of the magnetic circuit, f = frequency, and = flux per pole

Power angle Characteristics
The P() curve shows that the increase of power increases the angle between the induced voltage and the terminal voltage. The power is maximum when =90o The further increase of input power forces the generator out of
P( )
The maximum power is the static stability limit of the system. Safe operation requires a 1520% power reserve.

Example 1
A 25 kVA, 230 V three phase, four pole, 60 Hz, Yconnected synchronous generator has a synchronous reactance of 1.5 /phase and a negligible resistance. The generator is connected to an open circuit of constant voltage (230 V) and frequency (60 Hz), find: a) The generated EMF (EG) when the machine is delivering rated kVA at 0.8 power factor lagging. b) If the field current If is increased by 20 % without changing the power input find the stator current Ia.

Voltage Regulation
As the load on the generator increases, the terminal voltage drops. But, the terminal voltage, must be maintained constant, and hence the excitation on the machine is varied, or input power to the generator is varied. That means, EG has to be adjusted to keep the terminal voltage Vt constant. VNL VFL 100% Voltage Regulation, V. R. =

Calculate the percent voltage regulation for a three phase, Y-connected, 20 MVA ,13.8 kV synchronous generator operating at full load and 0.8 power factor lagging. The synchronous reactance is 8 ohm per phase and the armature resistance can be neglected.
