Influence of damping winding, controllersettings and exciter on the damping of rotorangle oscillations in a hydroelectric generator : The testing of a mathematical modell

This thesis has been performed in the university context for Master thesis 30 credits,which is a compulsory exercise in order to gain a degree in electrical engineering. The thesis main objectives were to investigate how the damping and the stiffness of ahydroelectric generator changed depending on different parameter values, and to testa new mathematical model to calculate the damping and stiffness constants Kd and Ks.The work has been performed at the request of VG Power, but has been performedat the division for electricity at Uppsala University. The reason for undertaking thisthesis was to ensure that generators are robust. But also when building future modelsfor generators, to have a system that can be used to compute robustness. During this thesis a power cabinet has also been constructed to be able to test thesimulated model on a real generator. Under the first five weeks a power cabinet wasconstructed in the laboratory at the division for electricity. The tests were thenperformed at a generator with a rated power of 75 kVA.
