1. Vibration analysis of a fast response brushless excitation system
University essay from Uppsala universitet/ElektricitetsläraAbstract : The aim of this study is to measure and analyze vibrations on a fast response brushless exciter (FRBE) at a real hydropower plant and identify vibration origins through frequency analysis. Moreover, the observed vibrations are evaluated in relation to generator vibration standards and estimated tangential eigenfrequencies of the studied FRBE. READ MORE

2. Thermal modeling of power electronic components in excitation systems
University essay fromAbstract : This thesis work aims at developing a model in Visual Basic for Applications and Microsoft Excel that can be used to predict temperatures in semiconductor devices for two commercial products made by Voith Hydro AB, and via simulation of the model determine the maximum current that can be conducted through the two products. The two products are called field exciters. READ MORE

3. Construction, testing and verification of a brushless excitation system with wireless control of the field current in a synchronous generator.
University essay from Uppsala universitet/ElektricitetsläraAbstract : Synchronous generators have been used in hydropower from more than a century where, traditionally, the field current is transferred to the rotor using slip rings and carbon brushes. There are some major disadvantages following the use static excitation; regular and expensive maintenance, as well as a source of carbon dust which, due to buildup, may cause short circuits.
