Projects:2016s1-122 A Complete Model for a Synchronous Machine
A Dynamic Model for a Synchronous Machine
Supervisor:

Project Members:
Leng Wai Kit Teng, Praveen De Silva, Thomas Klopf, Samuel Conlin
Aim:
To find a model for the Dynamic Characteristics of a synchronous machine. Then the model will be validated through a series of tests on an actual machine. The test procedures will be standardized and documents for use with other synchronous machines.
Motivation:
The steady state characteristics of the synchronous machines in the power labs at the University of Adelaide are already well documented, however information about the dynamic characteristics of these machines haven't been documented much. If a model and standardized test procedure to find the synchronous machines dynamic characteristics could be found, more information about the machines could be documented for future use by students and academics who wish to use them.
