Abstract
  • Synchronous machines provide a practical way to control reactive power consumption of a plant. One of the main advantages of using synchronous motors in a plant is their ability to generate reactive power for plant loads. A new control scheme for synchronous motor excitation systems is developed to automate reactive power consumption. The system performs adaptive control based on the real time data and keeps the power factor within a specified range. The system can also be used to improve voltage drop during large induction motor starts. Power system behavior as a result of applying the adaptive control is studied under different operating scenarios using power system analysis software. Results and conclusions are based on mathematical simulation and experimental measurements of a prototype system.
