Abstract


Synchronous motor has many advantages in efficiency, torque and working stability, so it is often applied in large power transmission systems. However, the rotor side of the synchronous motor needs a variable excitation device, so the control of the synchronous motor is complicated. This exciter must perform two tasks. When start up, it must determine exactly when to apply the excitation source to the rotor windings so that the stator's magnetic field "catches" the rotor's magnetic field and rotates synchronously. In the working mode, the excitation controller must automatically adjust the excitation source to stabilize the power factor of motor to the setpoint. This paper presents the design of an experimental model to "catch" synchronously at start-up and control the power factor when working of a large-capacity synchronous motor. With the addition of input conditions to "catch" the synchronization and use the PI controller combined with trial and error method to determine the controller's parameters to create an optimal excitation system.
