AVR(Automatic Voltage Regulator) of exciter control system in AC generator controls voltage and current according to load and terminal voltage variations in order to remain at the bus voltage. The output characteristics of main generator is dependent on the control performance of AVR. This paper presents the PWM type exciter system with transient response compensator for robust control of load variations. Additional transient response compensator generates compensation signal for load variation. So the proposed excitation control system has fast dynamic response in transient period and can control terminal voltage constantly. The proposed method is verified by the computer simulation and experimental results in prototype generation system.

In this work, the dynamic characteristics of an oil-lubricated, short SFD with a central feeding groove are derived based on a theoretical analysis considering the effect of a groove. The validity of the analysis is investigated experimentally using an Active Magnetic Bearing (AMB) system as an exciter. For the theoretical solution, the fluid film forces of a grooved SFD are analytically derived so that the dynamic coefficients of a SFD are expressed in terms of its design parameters. For the experimental validation of the analysis, a test rig using AMB as an exciter is proposed to identify the dynamic characteristics of a short SFD with a central groove. As an exciter, the AMB represents a mechatronic device to levitate and position the test journal without any mechanical contact, to generate relative motions of the journal inside the tested SFD and to measure the generated displacements during experiments with fairly high accuracy. Using this test rig, experiments are extensively conducted with different clearance, which is one of the most important design parameters, in order to investigate its effect on the dynamic characteristics and the performance of SFDs. Damping and inertia coefficients of the SFD that are experimentally identified are compared with the analytical results to demonstrate the effectiveness of the analysis. It is also shown that AMB is an ideal device for tests of SFDs.

This paper analyses with the dynamic performance of HVDC System connected to a weak AC system for varying exciter characteristics of synchronous machines connected at the converter bus. Conventionally capacitors are used to supply reactive power requirement at a strong converter bus. However the installation and synchronous machine is essential in a isolated weak network to re-start after a shutdown of HVDC and to increase strength. The dynamic performance of a synchronous machine depends on the characteristics depends on its exciter characteristics. In this paper, several excites types are used to investigate their effect on the dynamic performance of the HVDC system and modifications to standard exciter topogical are suggested to mitigate observed problems.

One of the most significant requisite that should be considered for effective rapping of the electrostatic precipitator using electromagnetic vibration exciter is vibration acceleration and resonance frequency of collecting plates. This vibration acceleration shows its peak points when natural frequencies of the system are corresponded with excitation frequency from the power source, and effective rapping performance can be expected. In this research, extend view of single electrostatic precipitator using one electromagnetic vibration exciter, the system was remodeled by arrangement of the exciters in view of multiple modules of the electrostatic precipitator in fields. And vibration acceleration measurement experiment is performed and measured values are compared with these remodeled systems. By this experimental comparison in series and parallel arrangement, effectiveness of arrangement methods for the electromagnetic vibration exciter, expected rapping performance, and power consumption are verified.

The output voltage of a synchronous generator is regulated constantly by field current control of excitation system. Synchronous generator exciter has two type, first one is Drop control type by thyristor and second one is exciter current control type through power output by PWM control. Control method of the second one prevails, but when the power devices have a breakdown, output voltage of the generator rises rapidly. This exciter must have a protection circuit and system is complicated, so reliability is poor Excitation control type which is drop control type control only 10% of the power, so it can be improved precision. When a trouble come to the controller, output voltage of a generator don't rise excessively and the voltage rise about 10%, so it has a excellent reliability. This paper prove stability of the digital AVR.

Fast Fourier Transformation(FFT) is one of the most useful way to analyze response signal for the purpose of grasping the dynamic characteristics of system. Excitation is a factor or process making noise or vibration. It's typical and simple experimental method widely used for catching hold of dynamic peculiar characters and modal behaviors of system by frequency analysis. There are harmonic excitation, impact excitation, random excitation, sweep excitation, chirp excitation and so on as the ideal method in an experiment using exciter. In this thesis, excitation testing module for NI-PXI equipment is developed. The analyzing module is developed with LabVIEW tool. A user can generate each waveform for shaking a structure and see quickly and easily modal shape of system with this module. This developed module will be expected to build up more convenient and serviceable measurement system.

PMT(Preventive Maintenance Template) is a standardized maintenance program that describes maintenance items & period as operation condition to increase component reliability at the component level. The existing maintenance programs are focused on time based maintenance to inspect and repair component depend on fixed period. But recently, we have developed advanced maintenance program(named PMT) to increase reliability and optimize maintenance program of the plant significant component. This paper presents how to develop the PMT for nuclear power plant's static exciter.

This paper presents an energy function which provides the direct relationships between the system stability and parameters of the exciter system. The energy function is derived from the energy conservation law by using the first motion integral. he time derivative does not absolutely satisfy the seminegativeness. However dE/dt usually has big negative value just after the fault clearing so that the energy is rapidly decreased. In this situation, the system state can be obviously confined in a stable region if the intial energy is less than the UEP energy. With these observation, two theorems are developed regarding the state confinement and asymptotic stability. Based on two theorems a new approximated direct energy method is developed to analyze the transient stability with the consideration of the exciter control effects. The proposed method has been tested for a single-machine-infinite bus system.

The main target in this paper is the localization of VME Type EPSM in Generator Exciter(EX2100) System. Developed EPSM has the compatibility with the existing product in the structure and shape and electrical feature and so on, but it has a much improved capacity and reliability in comparison with origin company product. this paper, to improve these functions, put emphasis on protection, monitoring, power capacity increase(over 120%), an enlarged scale of input voltage supply, AC/DC dual voltage use and so on. After manufacturing product localization, it was carried out several tests for the performance and reliability verification of developed product. These tests were performed in Authorized Inspection Agency(KTL) and field application test and maker self-test were additionally performed. Finally, the results of all tests were "success".

This paper describes a study on dynamic characteristics analysis and dynamic compliance evaluation of a 5-axis multi-tasking machine tool of ram-head type. Structural dynamics analysis and evaluation are necessary to machine tool design and development to secure good machine tool performance against tough and harsh machining conditions. In this study, natural frequencies and corresponding vibration modes of the machine tool structure were analyzed by using both F.E.M. modal analysis and impulse hammer test. Furthermore, dynamic compliance of the machine tool was analyzed by using F.E.M. and also measured by using a hydraulic exciter test. Both the theoretical analysis and experimental test results showed good agreement with each other.
