this paper presents the application of radial basis neural networks to the development of a novel method for the condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of synchronous generators. in the proposed scheme, flux linkage analysis is used to reach a decision. probabilistic neural network (pnn) and discrete wavelet transform (dwt) are used in design of fault diagnosis system. pnn as main part of thi...

this paper presents the application of the matching pursuit method to model synchronous generator. this method is useful for online analysis. in the proposed method, the field voltage is considered as input signal, while the terminal voltage and active power of the generator are output signals. usually, the difference equation with a second degree polynomial structure is used to estimate the co...

in this research paper, the performance of an air-cored axial flux permanent magnet synchronous generator is evaluated for low speed, direct drive applications using 3d finite element modeling and experimental tests. the structure of the considered machine consists of double rotor and coreless stator, which results in the absence of core losses, reduction of stator weight and elimination of cog...

this paper presents a novel salient pole synchronous generator i.e. permanentmagnet-assisted salient-pole synchronous generator (pma-sgs). due to saturationof conventional synchronous generators (sgs), permanent-magnet-assisted salientpolesynchronous generators (pma-sgs) are presented. pma-sgs are a new type ofsalient-pole synchronous machines with extra permanent magnets (pms) betweenthe adjac...

This paper presents a novel impedance-based approach for out-of-step (OOS) protection of a synchronous generator. The most popular and commonly used approaches for detecting OOS conditions are based on the measurement of positive sequence impedance at relay location. However, FACTS devices change the measured impedance value and thus disrupt the performance of impedance-based relay function. In...

Synchronous generators are of two type’s salient pole type and round rotor type. The load angle curve of a cylindrical rotor synchronous machine comprises a single sine term only while in salient pole synchronous generators, power-angle characteristic has two terms. The first term is the fundamental component due to field excitation (the same as the cylindrical rotor) and the second term ...

An accurate average value model of synchronous machine-rectifier system considering the effect of stator resistance is derived in this paper. A proper voltage-behind-reactance synchronous machine model without any approximations is used for the generator that allows effective calculation of commutation displacement angle. All rectification modes of the rectifier are studied. A detailed switchin...
