| Abstract |
A synchronous variable reluctance machine (VRM) can work with either a grid connection or a capacitor bank, each would need to provide the machine with positive reactive power to counter the machine inductive coils. Simulation shows that synchronous Variable capacitance could improve the VRM power transfer, when working both as a generator and as a motor. A 3~ synchronous VRM was modelled and simulated. A simulated synchronous capacitor (a device which changes capacitance synchronously with the machine) is connected to the simulated machine.The results show hope that it will be possible to operate the machine in extreme situations. The ability to transfer energy is shown to be improved at the expense of current THD. |
