With the increase of generator running time, the probability of generator rotor problems increases constantly. In this paper, a generator is taken as an example. During maintenance, the generator is found to have the evidence of turn-to-turn short circuit of rotor windings by the repetitive surge oscilloscope method, which is verified by the AC impedance power loss test of the rotor winding. The position of turn-to-turn short circuit is determined by the inter-pole voltage method and the coil voltage method. The accuracy of the test method is further verified by the generator rotor’s return repair.

With the production line testing requirement of the micro-motor rotor which is less than 10mm in diameter, an improved rotor detection method based on the pulse test method was presented for the rotor fault detection. This paper analyzed the operating principle of the method and simulated on the Matlab platform. Moreover, the rotor detection system centered on the DSP processor was designed to detect the rotor fault. The result showed that the method could quickly and accurately detect the inter-turn short circuit fault and determine the deep of short circuit. The degree of detection is up to 4% level, which meets the actual production testing requirement.

Hydro-generator unit is the most important energy conversion device in the hydropower, which is directly related to the safety and reliability and stable operation of the hydroelectric power plant. When the turbine generator rotor winding inter-turn short circuit occurs, the proposed method using load curve electromagnetic characteristics analysis, the use of before and after the failure to find the relative change in the excitation current failure rate as the identification method, the criterion may reflect the severity of the failure, perform theoretical calculations, and thus the inter-turbine generator rotor windings short circuit simulation, consistent with the conclusions of the theoretical analysis.

An in-situ method is proposed for monitoring and estimating the power degradation of mc-Si photovoltaic (PV) modules undergoing thermo-mechanical degradation tests that primarily manifest through cell cracking, such as mechanical load tests, thermal cycling and humidity freeze tests. The method is based on in-situ measurement of the module’s dark current-voltage (I-V) characteristic curve during the stress test, as well as initial and final module flash testing on a Sun simulator. The method uses superposition of the dark I-V curve with final flash test module short-circuit current to account for shunt and junction recombination losses, as well as series resistance estimation from the in-situ measured dark I-Vs and final flash test measurements. The method is developed based on mc-Si standard modules undergoing several stages of thermo-mechanical stress testing and degradation, for which we investigate the impact of the degradation on the modules light I-V curve parameters, and equivalent solar cell model parameters. Experimental validation of the method on the modules tested shows good agreement between the in-situ estimated power degradation and the flash test measured power loss of the modules, of up to 4.31 % error (RMSE), as the modules experience primarily junction defect recombination and increased series resistance losses. However, the application of the method will be limited for modules experiencing extensive photo-current degradation or delamination, which are not well reflected in the dark I-V characteristic of the PV module.
