Abstract Synchronous motor driven centrifugal compressors are widely used in the oil and gas industry. In evaluating the optimum selection of synchronous motor drivers for centrifugal compressors, it is important to understand the factors influencing a proper match for a centrifugal compressor and its synchronous motor driver. The buyer should specify process requirements and define possible operating scenarios for the entire life of the motor driven centrifugal compressor train. The compressor designer will use the buyer-specified process conditions to model the aerothermodynamic behavior of the compressor and characterize its performance. Performance, controllability, starting capabilities as well as the optimum power margin required for a future-oriented design must also be considered. This paper reviews the criteria for evaluating the optimal combination of a centrifugal compressor and its synchronous motor driver as an integral package. It also addresses API standard requirements on synchronous motor driven centrifugal compressors. Design considerations for optimal selection and proper sizing of compressor drivers include large starting torque requirements to enable compressor start from settle-out conditions and to prevent flaring are addressed. Start-up capabilities of the motor driver can significantly impact the reliability and operability of the compressor train. API 617 on centrifugal compressors refers to API 546 for synchronous motor drivers. In this paper, requirements of API 617 and 546 are reviewed and several important design and sizing requirements are presented. In the effort to optimize plant design, and maintain the performance requirements, the paper discusses optimization options, such as direct on-line starting method to explore the motor rating limits, and the use of synchronous motors for power factor correction to eliminate or reduce the need for reactive power compensation by capacitor banks. This paper presents a novel approach to show constant reactive power lines on traditional V curves. It also complements capability curves of synchronous motors with lines of constant efficiency. The paper discusses variable frequency drive options currently used for synchronous motors in compressor applications. The paper addresses the available variable frequency drive types, their impact on the electrical grid, and motor design considerations with a view to summarizing factors important to the selection of variable frequency drives.

Abstract The increased size of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) plants worldwide has led to an increase in boil-off gas (BOG) flows. The BOG can be either liquefied again to LNG or compressed to higher pressure levels for use as fuel gas. Single shaft multistage centrifugal compressors are used to compress large volume of BOG at high pressures. This paper reviews design considerations for synchronous motor driven BOG centrifugal compressors operating at high discharge pressures. Several design features including compressor selection and sizing, auxiliary system, performance characteristics and testing are reviewed. The use of leading power factor synchronous motors to improve the power factor of the LNG plant is discussed. Capability curves of API 546 synchronous motors for operation in VAR control mode — for maintaining constant reactive power — are explained. The choice between the use of speed control or adjustable guide vanes for BOG compressors is discussed.

Simulation of transient and steady state modes of synchronous motors for the analysis of switching to backup power using mathematical model. Method. The methods of linear algebra, numerical optimization methods, methods of modeling and analysis of established and transient modes are used. Results. The mathematical model of the salient pole rotor and non-salient or cylindrical pole rotor synchronous motor is presented, which is presented in the form of a alternate scheme, which allows to take into account the effect of displacement of current and saturation of the non-salient pole rotor motor's magnetic core. A method for determining the parameters of the synchronous motor based on passport data is proposed, which allows to improve the accuracy of modeling in steady state and transient modes. The mathematical model is reduced to a three-phase coordinate system a, b, c of the stator winding. The rotor windings are modeled in the coordinates d, q. The results of mathematical modeling allow us to determine the magnitude of the shock currents and mechanical moments of the synchronous motor. It is shown that non-synchronous switching on of the synchronous motor, which occurs in case of automatic transfer switch, can lead to engine damage. Shock currents can also be dangerous to other power supply equipment. Thus, synchronous motors, if transfer switch is used, require synchronization before being connected to the network. Scientific novelty. The mathematical model of the synchronous motor was improved taking into account the displacement of current and saturation of the magnetic conduit, the method of determining the parameters of the mathematical model based on the passport data of the engine was improved, which allowed to increase the accuracy of the simulation and the reliability of the simulation results. The modes of power transfer switch are simulated and the values of shock current and shock mechanical moment of the engine are obtained. Practical meaning. The mathematical model of the synchronous motor allows to analyze the behavior of synchronous motors in interaction in the power supply system and to identify the dangerous states of synchronous motors that may occur during the transfer switching. The proposed model improves the accuracy of determination of the limits of dangerous states and improves the reliability of synchronous motors and power supply systems.

The increasing need for energy requires using existing energy sources more efficiently. Because it is the active power that supplies useful power for industrial facilities, reactive power must be minimized, and supplied by another source instead of electrical grid. Therefore, reactive power supplied by the grid can be reduced via by correcting power factor of the grid. In electrical power systems, power factor correction is called reactive power compensation. Generating reactive power during excessive excitation, synchronous motors are used as dynamic compensators in power systems. Synchronous motors are more cost-effective for industrial facilities when they are used to generate mechanic power and compensate reactive power, which increases the efficiency of industrial facilities. There are various studies focusing on the efficiency, capacity and stability of the power system via reactive power compensation in the literature. In today's world, there are numerous optimization techniques inspired by biological systems. One of these techniques is Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) inspired by the movements of swarms of birds. This study focuses on the reactive power compensation of a power system by controlling the excitation current of a synchronous motor via PSO based PID and Ziegler Nichols (Z-N) based PID controllers.

The paper proposes a new speed control method to improve control quality and expand the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors speed range. The Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) speed range enlarging is based on the newly proposed power control principle between two voltage sources instead of winding current control as the conventional Field Oriented Control method. The power management between the inverter and PMSM motor allows the Flux-Weakening obstacle to be overcome entirely, leading to a significant extension of the motor speed to a constant power range. Based on motor power control, a new control method is proposed and allows for efficiently reducing current and torque ripple caused by the imbalance between the power supply of the inverter and the power required through the desired stator current. The proposed method permits for not only an enhanced PMSM speed range, but also a robust stability in PMSM speed control. The simulation results have demonstrated the efficiency and stability of the proposed control method.

Abstract Research on Self –excited induction generator (SEIG) brings a lot of attentions in the last three decades as a promising solution in distributed generation systems with low cost investment. There are two important fixations to attend in the operation of SEIG based systems, a) excitation and b) voltage regulation. Many procedures are reported regarding selection of excitation capacitance in the literature, based on state-state analysis, dynamic modeling, empirical formulas and machine parameters which involve various levels of complexity in findings. Moreover, the voltage regulation is the main challenge in implementation of SEIG based isolated systems. To address this problem, many power electronic-based schemes are proposed in the literature and but these solutions have few demerits importantly that additional cost of equipment and troubles due to failure of protection schemes. In particular, the installation of SEIG takes place at small scale in kW range in remote/rural communities which should not face such shortcomings. Further in case of off-grid systems, the maximum loading is fixed based on connected rating of the generator. This paper presents the various methods to find excitation capacitance and illustrates an experimental investigation on different possible reactive power compensation methods of delta connected SEIG and aimed to identify a simple method for terminal voltage control without power electronics. In this experimental work, the prime-mover of the generator is a constant speed turbine, which is the emulation of a micro/pico hydro turbine. From the results, it is found that a simple delta connected excitation and delta configured reactive power compensation limits voltage regulation within ±6% while maintaining the frequency of ±1%, which make feasible of the operation successfully in remote electrification systems.
