Badania procesów wzbudzenia autonomicznego generatora indukcyjnego

This paper presents issues concerning the self-excitation process of autonomous induction generator. Equivalent circuit and static conditions of self-excitation process of induction generator are given. The main part of the article concerns the experimental investigations of self-excitation process. In this paper the laboratory system and methodology of research are described. The paper presents the results of laboratory tests of self-excitation of autonomous induction generator. Self-excitation processes were investigated due to rotor residual magnetism and initially charged capacitor bank. The experimental issues of influence of rotor speed and capacitance value on self-excitation process are presented. Results presented in this paper allow more exactly explain the electromagnetic phenomena occurring during self-excitation process of induction generators and let to verify theoretical studies and simulations.
