Description
Summary:In this paper an accurate method for efficiency calculation of self-excited induction generator (SEIG) at different operating conditions is proposed, considering the effect of stator and rotor iron core losses, stator and rotor circuits stray load losses, stator and rotor winding (copper) losses, mechanical losses, skin-effect losses, and skew-effect losses. The proposed procedure of efficiency calculation is based on the conventional machine tests such as no-load test, load test at variable supply voltage and temperature test without additional measurements. From these conventional tests, all the SEIG losses can be calculated accurately by their related formulas derived based on the SEIG equivalent circuit. The reduction of these losses causes an increase in the SEIG percentage efficiency, and this is a very important feature in electric energy saving by minimization of SEIG equivalent circuit components.
