Abstract


A synchronous generator with voltage controller is a system whose work describes the ordinary differential equation set for the equivalent circuits. For the nonlinear magnetic circuit of a synchronous generator (stator and rotor saturation) the differential set is nonlinear. The solution of such a problem needs to develop the appropriate model for numerical simulations of the generator. First of all, the generator model type e.g. (1,1), (2,2), (3,3) or other should be chosen. Furthermore, the equivalent parameters for the model of synchronous generator should be chosen. The nonlinearity of magnetic circuit leads to changes of some equivalent parameters and additional numerical computations. There is a numerical program developed in C++ for simulations of transients in order to investigate their sensitivity to generator nonlinearity (saturation effect) and equivalent parameters values. The described program (available at www.elektr.polsl.pl/dspalek/) enables to decide whether the nonlinearity for d/q axis should be taken into account and which equivalent parameter are of high importance. Subsequently, the presented model leads to conclusions on which parameters should influence significantly synchronous generator work in a power system.
