A Transient Current Vector Potential to Consider the Rotor Excitation of Synchronous Machines Under Short Circuit Condition

摘要

This paper presents a method to approximately take account of the rotor excitation field of a synchronous machine under maximum aperiodic short-circuit condition using an impressed current vector potential in a 3-D transient finite-element analysis. The method is applied to compute end-region phenomena like end-winding forces or eddy current losses in conducting machine parts where the effects of the rotor excitation field cannot be neglected. A complex 3-D geometry model, the numerical method, and the computation results like end-winding forces are presented. The transient analysis of the electromagnetic field has been performed using the T, - formulation solved with an in-house software.
