Analysis and average-value modeling of line-commutated converter-synchronous machine systems

Abstract

Analytical relationships are established which can be used to predict the steady-state characteristics of line-commutated AC-DC-converter-synchronous machine systems. In particular, basic relationships are established in which the average DC voltage and the average electromagnetic torque are related to the converter firing delay angle. It is shown that these average-value relationships predict the steady-state performance with significantly higher accuracy than the classical converter average-value equations in which the d-axis subtransient reactance is used as the commutating reactance.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
