1) 11) The maximum allowed increase in power angle during the fault that would ensure generator stability is π/6 rad. Will the generator retain stability after the fault clearing? Calculate the maximum electrical power that the generator can deliver to the network.
Synchronous Generator
In comparison to an asynchronous generator, it is a machine where the rotor speed is equal to the rotating magnetic field produced by the stator, i.e., mechanical speed is equal to the electrical speed, thus called synchronous, and not asynchronous.
Salient Pole Rotor
Salient pole rotor includes a large number of exposed poles mounted on a magnetic wheel. The construction of a bright pole is as shown in the image on the left. The proposed poles are made of metal laminations. The rotor winding is provided on these poles and is supported by pole shoes.
A synchronous generator with inertia constant, H, operates in steady state with steady state rotor angle δ0. The steam turbine delivers rated
