Abstract: A system includes an excitation system. The excitation system includes a memory that may store an adaptive power system stabilizer (PSS) system that may dynamically stabilize an operation of a generator system. The excitation system also includes a processor communicatively coupled to the memory that may selectively utilize the adaptive PSS system based upon a determination of whether one or more operational parameters of the generator system has met or exceeded a threshold value.

Abstract: A method keeps a synchronous machine in a stable operating zone during large transient voltage excursions on a power grid to which the machine is connected. The machine's load angle, i.e., the position of the rotor flux with respect to the position of the stator flux, is calculated. If the load angle is not within a defined range of reference values for stable machine operation, the machine's field excitation is adjusted to bring the machine's load angle within the defined range of reference values for stable machine operation.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to optimization of gas turbine power plant response during power system transients. In certain embodiments, systems, methods, and apparatus can control a power generating system by using the reactive components of the current and the reactive components of the voltage and the magnitude of the voltage at the generator terminals of a gas turbine generator system. In one embodiment, a system can identify a power system fault based on at least three conditions occurring for a specified duration and at substantially the same time: (1) an increase in the reactive current, (2) a decrease in the magnitude of the voltage, and (3) an increase in the reactive power. In one embodiment, a power system can further detect a remote breaker open (RBO) condition, and distinguish a RBO condition from a power system fault condition.

Abstract: A brushless synchronous machine with a limiter for main field voltage and a method of limiting main field voltage in a brushless synchronous machine are described. The machine includes a regulator to use a field current to excite main field windings and generate the main field voltage. The machine also includes a limiter to limit the field current to maintain the main field voltage corresponding to the field current below a limit based on a transfer function.

Abstract: A method may involve monitoring a first set of electrical properties associated with an electrical grid configured to couple to a generator and determining whether a transient event is present on the electrical grid based on the first set of electrical properties. The method may also involve determining a mechanical power present on a shaft of the generator based on a second set of electrical properties associated with the generator, the electrical grid, or both when the transient event is present and sending the mechanical power to a controller associated with a turbine configured to couple to the generator, wherein the controller is configured to adjust one or more operations of the turbine based on the mechanical power.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure are directed at determining rotor deterioration in a dynamoelectric machine. Various current and voltage measurements are carried out upon an exciter assembly when the dynamoelectric machine is operated at various speeds and at various occasions over an extended period of time. More particularly, a set of current and voltage measurements that are carried out when the dynamoelectric machine is in a slow-roll mode of operation can be used for determining a resistance of a current path through which the exciter assembly provides electrical power to a rotor assembly. A time-domain-to-frequency-domain conversion can be carried out upon this set of resistance measurements in order to generate a spectral signature. The spectral signature can then be evaluated to detect an altered rotor resistance condition and/or a rotor resistance alteration trend.
