A new approach to voltage regulation in self-sustained power supply systems in mines

Abstract

The researchers analyze energy processes running in an autonomous electric power system consisting of a synchronous permanent magnet generator and a semiconductor converter. Current, voltage and capacity of key components of the system are evaluated, and the system operation modes are determined for the variable magnitude and character of applied load at the constant voltage output frequency. Parametrical law is proposed to control semiconductor frequency converter serially connected to load and generating reactive power. The influence of the converter on the basic design parameters, energy specifications of the synchronous generator and the system as a whole are evaluated.
