Induction Regulators: An induction regulators is essentially a constant voltage transformer, one winding of which can be moved w.r.t. the other, thereby obtaining a variable secondary voltage. The primary winding is…
Brown Boveri Regulator: In this type of Brown Boveri Regulator, exciter field rheostat is varied continuously or in small steps instead of being first completely cut in and then completely…
Tirril Voltage Regulator: In this type of Tirril Voltage Regulator, a fixed resistance is cut in and cut out of the exciter field circuit of the alternator. This is achieved…
Low Power Factor: The Low Power Factor plays an importance role in ac. circuits since power consumed depends upon this factor. It is clear from above that for fixed power…
Types of Facts Controllers in Power System: The development of FACTS controllers has followed two different approaches. The first approach employs reactive impedances or a tap changing transformer with thyristor…
Factors Affecting Transient Stability: Factors Affecting Transient Stability - The two-machine system can be equivalently reduced to a single machine connected to infinite bus bar. The qualitative conclusions regarding system…
Power Angle Equation of Synchronous Machine: Power Angle Equation of Synchronous Machine - In solving the swing equation (Eq. (12.10)), certain simplifying assumptions are usually made. These are: Mechanical power…
Protection Circuits in Regulators: Protection Circuits in Regulators- The series regulator using transistors has no short circuit protection. If the load terminals are shorted accidentally then, Large amount of load…
