SUV SERIES AUTOMATIC FIELD CONTROL FOR BRUSHLESS TURBO- AND HYDROGENERATORS


APPLICATION

     SUV series microprocessor automatic excitement control produced by CC “Energocomplekt” is designed for power supply with automatically adjustable current of field winding of brushless exciters of turbo- and hydrogenerators by capacity from 1.5 to 120 MW in all its operational modes. The control carries out all the functions of control, protection and signaling about the field system condition. SUV series controls can also be used for completing field systems of generators of other series and types, and also for reconstruction of electric machine, high-frequency and brushless field systems of generators incorporating control and control equipment realized on the basis of EPA panels, RBA-62 controls, SDE-76 control stations, ARV-R devices, etc.

     SUV automatic control has passed tests on the electrodynamic model of PC "NIIPT" (St. Petersburg) and has an expert testimony of its applicability on generators of any capacity.

THE CONTROL PROVIDES

  • generators operation in the modes:
  • initial field,
  • idling,
  • including in a network by methods of exact synchronization and self-synchronization,
  • work for the network or independent loading;
  • local or remote change of voltage setting with the speed of 0.5 % per second in the range from 80 up to 110% with relation to the generator nominal voltage;
  • maintenance of voltage set by the device on the generator outputs with accuracy not worse than 1% with relation to the established static characteristic;
  • independence of voltage on the generator outputs in the idling mode by frequency change from 47 to 52 Hz;
  • forcing field current up to the preset values on the frequency rate at reduction of voltage on the generator outputs by 10-20% and more;
  • limiting field current on the double value of the generator rotor current;
  • limiting field current of excitant on time-dependent characteristic according to the data on the generator overload;
  • clearing (unexciting) the generator field by clearing the brushless exciter field;
  • program initial field;
  • steady control of generator field current at fast alternating loadings, up to single load surges, caused by simultaneous switch-on of asynchronous engines with total capacity up to 30% of the nominal generator power;
  • limiting the minimal field current to the value not allowing the generator switch to the mode of reactive capacity deep consumption;
  • steady distribution of reactive capacity without use of group control or cross leveling connections between several uniform generators of comparable capacity, switched on in parallel on the generating voltage level;
  • unloading the generator on its reactive capacity and its switching off the network.

    STRUCTURE

         Brushless field system includes a brushless exciter installed on the generator shaft, a control and a converting transformer connected to the generator stator clips. The control is a structurally completed block consisting of a power section and a control section. The control appearance is shown on Fig. 1. On the operational conditions, the control block can be located in a separate cabinet (Fig. 2) or in one of the panels of the generator control panel.
