“Transient analysis of isolated six-phase synchronous generator”

The present paper describes a mathematical model and detailed transient behavior of a six-phase synchronous generator for isolated energy generation, when subjected to sudden switching of inductive load on either of the winding set or on both the winding sets. The computer model has been developed in rotor reference frame and is worth for the analysis of any arbitrary displacement angle between the two winding sets. The mutual leakage reactance and mutual leakage coupling between the d-q axes of two winding sets have also been considered in the analytical model. It is depicted that there is an interaction between the two windings as the performance of a winding set varies when other is subjected to variation in load. The computer traces for different loading conditions are shown, which agrees well with the established results. Some experimental results are also included.
