| Abstract |
As modem industrialized society progresses, the demand for electric power is increasing rapidly. The electric power system is getting amazingly bigger and complicated, which can easily induce serious troubles from the potential of large fault problems and/or system failure. The monitoring and diagnosis of the electric machine for the fault detection and protection has been important part in the electric power system. Most faults in the generator appear in the winding. This paper presents the air-gap magnetic flux characteristic of a small-scale 2-pole synchronous generator according to the faults in the field winding to protect the generator from the fault. The magnetic flux patterns in air-gap of a generator under various fault conditions as well as a normal state are simulated by using finite element method. These results are successfully applied to the detection and diagnosis of the short-circuit condition in rotor windings of a high capacitor generator. |
