I have a new project on the technical review stage. Basically, this project has a single turbine generator is running a parallel with grid. But, the grid owner requested to clear a generator fault with 1/4 of cycle if there is a fault. If we could not do this, then the project is dead. So...
I tried to synchronize the turbine generator with Utility. But, after 30 seconds of synchronizing with utility. I got an alarm and it opened the turbine generator's breaker. I went to check the DECS 200, it displayed a message Loss of Field Excitation.
It happened like this three times now...
My company's specialty is packaging Turbine with synchronous generator as a finished packaging for baseload or standby application. We have a new customer asking for an Induction generator instead. My understanding of Induction generator requires utility power to provide exciting to this...
We have a baseload gas turbine generator system. We have a Basler DECS-200 as a voltage regulator, Woodward SPM as an Auto-synchronizer, and Woodward Load Sharing Module. The utility voltage is rated at 13.8KV. As long as the utility voltage is dropping down to 13.4kv or more, the gas turbine...
