Self-excitation of induction motors compensated by permanently connected capacitors is investigated in this paper. Theoretical analyses of self, excitation phenomenon are carried out by using some simplified equivalent circuits, and a hybrid mathematical model in ABC/dq axes, respectively, in steady state and transient state. An unusual operating condition about water pumping stations is reported, in which water within the pipeline may drive the motor in the reverse direction at speeds higher than synchronous, when a supply interruption coincides with a check-valve failure. In order to prevent the motor from dangerous overvoltages due to self-excitation, it is recommended to connect a simple static protection circuit consisting of a resistor in series with a thyristor switch between any two lines of the motor. Critical resistance boundaries, which will lead to loss of excitation, and demagnetization of the rotor core are determined. separately as a function of operating speed. A suitable resistance value chosen in the Safe Design Area constitutes a reliable protection mechnism against self-excitation.

State-Estimation-Based Determination of Harmonic Current Contributions of Iron and Steel Plants Supplied from PCC
Sezgin, Erhan; Göl, Murat; Salor, Ozgul (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2016-05-01)
In this paper, a state-estimation-based method is proposed to determine harmonic current contributions of iron and steel (I&S) plants supplied from a point of common coupling (PCC). Due to highly nonlinear nature of the I&S plant operation, accurate estimation of harmonic contributions of the individual plants is essential. In the proposed method, the nonlinear characteristics of the plants and the utility are modeled as harmonic current sources and the harmonic current contributions of loads are decoupled ...

Severity Estimation of Interturn Short Circuit Fault for PMSM
Qi, Yuan; Bostancı, Emine; Zafarani, Mohsen; Akin, Bilal (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-09-01)
This paper presents a novel method to estimate the number of shorted turns in a permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) following the detection of interturn short-circuit (ITSC) fault and its location. In this proposed method, PMSM is excited through a low sinusoidal voltage at standstill condition to obtain the winding resistance and synchronous inductance by current response. It is shown that the ITSC fault introduces variation in the current response, which can be used to calculate the number of shor...
Predicted impact of collector and zeolite choice on the thermodynamic and economic performance of a solar-powered adsorption cooling system
Baker, Derek Keıth (Informa UK Limited, 2007-04-01)
Transient thermodynamic and capital cost models for an intermittent solar-powered adsorption cooling system are presented. The models are used to predict size and cost trends as the type of zeolite and collector, and maximum zeolite temperature (T-Z,T-Max), are varied. The best synthetic and natural zeolites considered have similar performance. The minimum cost system uses a flat plate collector for T-Z,T- Max < 160 degrees C and an evacuated tube collector for T-Z,T- Max > 160 degrees C. Collector costs do...
