MM ABSTRACT This thesis is concerned with the modeling, analogue and tests of an interconnected four electric machine voltage control system. Many analogue studies of electric machines have been done but most are concerned with the development of analogue techniques and only a few give substantiation of the validity of the analogue models through comparison of results from analogue studies and from real machine tests. Chapter 2 describes the procedure and the system under study. Chapter 3 describes the methods used for the determination of the electrical and mechanical system parameters. The analogue model of the interconnected system is developed by studying the induction motor-amplidyne subsystem in Chapter 4 and the synchronous motor-dc generator subsystem in Chapter 5. Both transient and steady state tests are carried out on the analogue and on real machines to substantiate the validity of the analogue models. The subsystems are then interconnected and the interconnected system analogue is further verified from transient and steady state tests on the analogue and real machines. Although the system under study is specific, the methods of modeling, analogue and testing are general, there• fore, they can be applied to the transient and steady state studies of other electric machine systems. ii TABLE OP CONTENTS Page ABSTRACT ii TABLE OF'CONTENTS iii LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS v LIST OF TABLES vii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT ix 1.

Physical models are obtained, equations are written and analogue studies are carried out. However, these studies are mostly concerned with the development of analogue techniques. Verification of system behaviour from analogue studies by comparison with machine tests is seldom given,especially for interconnected machine systems. Krause and Thomas (l), applying the d-q:coordinate transformations, studied on the analogue computer transient phenomena of a 3-phase induction motor with unbalanced stator voltages and unequal rotor resistors. Krause (2) also carried out transient studies of 2-phase and various types of single- phase induction motors. Dineley and Glover (3) modeled a synchronous generator on an analogue computer to study voltage effects of capacitive loading. The effect of saturation of the main axis flux was simulated by a function generator. O'Plaherty and Aldred (4), using the analogue computer, studied a synchronous-machine and transmission system with symmetrical and unsymmetrical faults. Stabilities of various faults at different locations along the transmission line were determined. Symmetrical components and Park's equations were used to set up the system on the analogue computer. In all the previous studies no comparison was made between the results from the analogue computer and those from the actual tests. 2 To carry out transient analysis of 2-phase and 3- phase induction motors on the analogue computer, Hughes and Aldred (5) used measured parameters. They verified their model hy a comparison of results from steady state studies on the analogue with those from real tests. With this model they studied starting transients of a 2-phase induction motor and unbalanced and single phase operation of a 3-phase induction motor. Riaz (6) in his voltage regulation studies gave a detailed analogue presentation for a synchronous generator including saliency, amortisseur winding and saturation. With approximations, he studied a zero power factor load. His computer results of no load and load steady state voltages and transient response times.compared favourably with test results. Although the techniques of analogue computer studies of electric machine systems have been very well developed, a complete comparison of results from analogue studies with those from actual machine tests is still lacking. In this thesis, an interconnected four machine system, consisting of a synchronous motor-dc generator set and an induction motor-amplidyne set, is used to carry out the study. Both steady state and transient performances from analogue studies and real machine tests will be compared for the individual sets and for the interconnected system. A Pace 231R analogue computer is used to carry out the study. 3 2. PROCEDURE AND SYSTEM UNDER STUDY 2-1 Procedure The development of a complete analogue of an electric machine system for both the steady state and transient studies involves modeling, analogue, and comparison of analogue results with those from performance tests on real machines.

Neither is entirely satisfactory either in its calculation of characteristics or in the physical conception of the motor's operation. The complexity and actual mystery involved have defied through this half century efforts to si~lify and correlate completely the theories now extant. This paper is designed, not to perform this task, nor to develop a new concept, but rather to bring together a· few ideas which have been helpful in the work which was carried on in the belief that there can be a more satisfactory explanation of single­ phase moto~ operation. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENT The writer wishes to express his sincere appreciation to Professor C& Fo Cameron for his encouragement, his reading of this material and his many helpful suggestions concerning it., V TABLE OF CONTENTS CHA PTER I. • • • • • • • . • . 1 The Double Revolving Field. • . • ••••. 1 Two Oppositely Rotating Fields in a Single Stator. • • 13 Two Oppositely Rotating Fields in Two Stators • • • • • 25 Mathematical Development by Equivalent Circuit •• • • • 29 Another Approach to Performance Equations .

Kirtley Jr. 1 Introduction Stator Bearings Stator Conductors Rotor Air Gap Rotor Shaft End Windings Conductors Figure 1: Form of Electric Machine This section of notes discusses some of the fundamental processes involved in electric machinery. In the section on energy conversion processes we examine the two major ways of estimating elec- tromagnetic forces: those involving thermodynamic arguments (conservation of energy) and field methods (Maxwell’s Stress Tensor). But first it is appropriate to introduce the topic by describing a notional rotating electric machine. Electric machinery comes in many different types and a strikingly broad range of sizes, from those little machines that cause cell ’phones and pagers to vibrate (yes, those are rotating electric machines) to turbine generators with ratings upwards of a Gigawatt. Most of the machines with which we are familiar are rotating, but linear electric motors are widely used, from shuttle drives in weaving machines to equipment handling and amusement park rides. Currently under development are large linear induction machines to be used to launch aircraft. It is our purpose in this subject to develop an analytical basis for understanding how all of these different machines work. We start, however, with a picture of perhaps the most common of electric machines. 2 Electric Machine Description: Figure 1 is a cartoon drawing of a conventional induction motor. This is a very common type of electric machine and will serve as a reference point.
