SIMULATIONS OF A COMPUTER-BASED METHOD FOR SYNCHRONIZING POWER GENERATORS

摘要

The ever-increasing use of computers for the control of power systems encourages a major shift in the implementation of various control functions, from specialized hard were to soft were routines. One such beneficial function that can beneficially be implemented In soft were is the initiation of the closure of a circuit breaker during The synchronization of power generators. In this paper a novel Method is suggested for timing the initiating signal. The method Relies on computer analysis of the voltage waveforms of the power System and synchronization of the generator so as to accurately Predict the time of phase coincidence. The simulation tests, as Reported and discussed in this paper, fully confirm the functionality Of the proposed method, thus encouraging further research into Computer-based synchronization of generators.
