Analysis and modeling of novel brushless exciter based on hybrid excitation topology
The exciter is a key component of the synchronous generator system with self-excited initiation. Based on the topology of hybrid excitation, this paper proposes a novel brushless exciter, which is suitable for an isolated power system. The parameters of the exciter are calculated by the numerical method based on finite element model, and the state space model is established. The experimental researches are carried out on a 3 kW prototype.
Synchronous Generator Output Voltage Real-Time Feedback Control via $H_\infty$ Strategy
A new approach on synchronous generator (SG) output voltage control is presented. The originality of such a strategy is based on the excitation structure that integrates a permanent-magnet generator combined with a modern control method: the H infin. The main motivation of this paper is the debatable results obtained with the classical excitation structure controlled by a traditional PID controller. The SG model as well as the control strategy will be presented. The implementation in real time domain and a comparison with the classical structure will allow us to prove the efficiency of the proposed structure compared to the classical one as regards the reference tracking and signal quality.
Linear Boundary of Current Closed-Loop Control of Two-Quadrant H-Half Bridge Converter in Excitation System
The excitation system is an important component element that influences the dynamic behavior of alternators. However, when the two-quadrant H-half bridge converter is used in the exciter field current closed-loop control system, there will be some problems of nonlinearity. To prevent the converter from working in the nonlinear area, the working conditions of linear and nonlinear area of H-half bridge converter is discussed firstly in this paper. And then it is verified by the simulation results.
