This thesis is concerned with the design, construction
and testing of a prime mover - governor model capable of
simulating those components of a large power system. This unit
is to be used as part of a new power system test model. The
model has been designed to simulate a prime mover - governor by
controlling a laboratory-size dc motor through the field of a
booster with allowance being made for setting up the governor
transfer functions, thus obtaining the desired torque and speed
responses.
Since most methods of power system analysis neglect
certain system characteristics and since tests on actual systems
could be destructive, it seems desirable to develop a complete
power system test model capable of representing a real power
system fairly accurately. When the system model is completed,
it is hoped that extensive transient stability tests can be
carried out and real system control techniques developed.
Chapter 2 of this thesis outlines the design of the
prime mover - governor model; Chapter 3 describes the realization
of the system; and Chapter 5 gives the model tests and
results. The test methods and results of machine parameter
measurements are included in Chapter 4. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Electrical and Computer Engineering, Department of / Graduate
