PROJECT TITLE :
Comparison of Thyristor-Controlled Rectification Topologies for a Six-Phase Rotating Brushless Permanent Magnet Exciter
ABSTRACT:
The thyristor bridge rectifier has proven to be a reliable resolution regarding control of excitation equipment for synchronous generators. But, in rotating brushless exciters, the diode rectifier is that the dominant topology on the shaft. So as to enhance the step response of rotating exciters, one could put a thyristor bridge rectifier on the rotating half and control the firing angle remotely from a stationary controller. This paper compares different multiphase configurations of permanent magnet synchronous machines as a rotating exciter and discusses the possibility to reduce the torque ripple by selecting the appropriate rectification topology. The paper additionally explains the implications of the self and mutual inductances of the armature windings for the performance of the exciter.
