Abstract
- Excitation system of synchronous generator can help to an effective voltage control and power system stability support. In fact, for the stability improvement, this excitation system should be able to apply proper input voltage to the generator field winding. In this paper limiters and protective circuits of generator excitation system are explained. Two important types of these limiters are over and under excitation ones. The over-excitation limiter protects the generator against over-temperature caused by high field current for long time. Under-excitation limiter prevents the decrease of generator field current to the values lower than the stability margin or the thermal limit of end side of the stator core. Various models of the over and under excitation limiters have been presented in the literature. Tuning these limiters can be performed in different ways by considering the generator,s capability curves. The limiter models and their parameters tuning affect voltage stability straightly. In this research, after implementation the proper model for our case study, the tuning of limiters is obtained by analyzing well known voltage stability methods. Some simulations have been done in Matlab/Simulink to analyze the effect of the selected model and tuned limiters on voltage stability both in single and multi-machines system. Also the dynamic parameters of a real system (Bistun power plant) are used as the case study. The results issued from this study are also discussed and validate the simulations.
