Fact: salient pole incurs significant mechanical stress at high speed. Do steam-turbine generators have salient poles or smooth? Fact: Salient pole rotors are cheaper to build than smooth. Do hydro-turbine generators have salient poles or smooth?
Generation Operation • A magnetic field is provided by the DC-current carrying field winding which induces the desired AC voltage in the armature winding • Field winding is always located on the rotor where it is connected to an external DC source via slip rings and brushes or to a revolving DC source via a special brushless configuration • Armature winding is located on the stator where there is no rotation • The armature consists of three windings all of which are wound on the stator, physically displaced from each other by 120 degrees

Generation Operation: The revolving magnetic field • = flux associated with the revolving magnetic field which links the armature windings. It will have a flux density of B. • At any given time t, the B-field will be constant along the coil. • By Faraday’s Law of Induction, the rotating magnetic field will induce voltages phase displaced in time by 120 degrees (for a two pole machine) in the three armature windings • Let’s consider just the A-phase.
Generation Operation: The revolving magnetic field (cont’d) If each of the three armature windings are connected across equal impedances, balanced three phase currents will flow in them producing their own magnetic fields = = • = resultant field with associated flux obtained as the sum of the three component fluxes is the field of armature reaction • The two fields represented by and are stationary with respect to each other • The armature field has “locked in” with the rotor field and the two fields are said to be rotating in synchronism • The total resultant field = +
Generation Operation:The phasor diagram • From Faraday’s Law of Induction, a voltage is induced in each of the three armature windings: where N = number of winding turns • All voltages, ,lag their corresponding fluxes, ,by 90 degrees • The current winding a, denoted by , is in phase with the flux it produces
Generation Operation: The equivalent circuit model • Develop equivalent model for winding a only; same applies to winding b and c with appropriate 120 degree phase shifts in currents and voltages given a balanced load

Generation Operation: The equivalent circuit model (cont’d) You can perform per-phase equivalent analysis or you can perform per-unit analysis. In per-phase, Ef and Vt are both line to neutral voltages, Ia is the line current, and Z is the impedance of the equivalent Y-connected load. In per-unit, Ef and Vt are per-unit voltages, Ia is the per unit current, and Z is the per unit load impedance.
