In order to comprehensively study and identify the electromagnetic torque (EMT) difference among the single static air-gap eccentricity (SAGE) fault, the single stator interturn short circuit fault (SISC), and the combined fault composed of these two, this article investigates the EMT ripple properties due to the mentioned three faults. Different from other studies, this paper considers not only the effect of the single fault types but also the impact of the single fault combinations on the EMT ripple characteristics. Detailed EMT expressions for each fault are firstly derived on the basis of the magnetic flux density (MFD) analysis. Then, finite element calculation and experimental study on a CS-5 prototype generator with two poles at 3000 rpm, which is specifically designed and manufactured ourselves, are carried out to validate the analysis result. It is found that the three faults will induce different ripple components in EMT. The combined faults have the most intensive impact sensitivity on the EMT ripples, while the single SAGE fault ranks the last in the impact effect.

With the continuous development of power electronics technology, variable-speed offshore wind turbines that penetrated the grid system caused the problem of inertia reduction. This study investigates the frequency stability of synchronous, offshore wind-farm integration through a modular-multilevel-converter high-voltage direct-current (MMC–HVDC) transmission system. When full-scale converter wind turbines (type 4) penetrate the AC grid, the AC system debilitates, and it becomes difficult to maintain the AC system frequency stability. In this paper, we present an improved inertial-response-control method to solve this problem. The mathematical model of the synchronous generator is based on the swing equation and is theoretically derived by establishing a MMC–HVDC. Based on the above model, the inertia constant is analyzed using a model that integrates the MMC–HVDC and offshore synchronous generator. With the new improved control method, a more sensitive and accurate inertia index can be obtained using the formula related to the effective short-circuit ratio of the AC system. Moreover, it is advantageous to provide a more accurate inertial control evaluation for AC systems under various conditions. Furthermore, the impact of the MMC–HVDC on system safety is assessed based on the capacitor time constant. This simulation was implemented using the PSCAD/EMTDC platform.

Rotor inter-turn short-circuit is a common fault in generator and it is a research hotspot to identify the fault at its early stage. Considering the disadvantage of circuit analytical method, this paper establishes a 2D transient finite element electromagnetic-circuit coupling model, and calculates the magnetic field at normal and fault situations through the powerful post-processing function of ANSOFT, then magnetic flux density cloud pictures and air-gap magnetic flux density curves of different operating conditions are got. Using MATLAB to analyze and deal with the air-gap flux density cures, we can get the differences of faults in different levels and different positions, which provide a basis for further study of rotor inter-turn short-circuit fault.

Taking a 1000 MW turbine generator as the research object, the short-circuit fault in electrical disturbance is analyzed. Since it is very difficult to carry out fault analysis experiments and research on actual systems, simulation analysis is one of the more effective means of electrical fault diagnosis; the simulation’s results approach the actual behavior of the system and are ideal tools for power system analysis, and can provide an empirical basis for practical applications. The short-circuit fault model of the SIMULINK power system is built to analyze the two types of faults of generator terminals short-circuit and power grid short-circuit. The impact load spectrum, fault current and speed fluctuation between low-voltage rotors were extracted and analyzed. The conclusion is that the impact value of electromagnetic torque at the generator terminal is greater than that on the power grid side. The impact value of a two-phase short-circuit at the generator terminal is the largest, and that of a three-phase short-circuit on the power grid side is the smallest. The transient impulse current of a three-phase short-circuit at any fault point is greater than that of a two-phase short-circuit; the impulse current of the grid side short-circuit is much greater than that of the generator terminal short-circuit; the speed fluctuation and fluctuation difference caused by the three-phase short-circuit in the grid side are the largest. The alternating frequency of the transient electromagnetic force of the four kinds of faults avoids the natural frequency of the torsional vibration of the shaft system, and the torsional resonance of the shaft system in the time domain of the short-circuit fault will not appear. However, after the fault is removed, the residual small fluctuation torque in the system has a potential impact on the rotor system. This research shows an analysis of the structural integrity and safe operation of turbine generator units after a short-circuit fault, which can not only be applied to engineering practice, but also provide a theoretical basis for subsequent research.
