  2. Excitation (magnetic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excitation_(magnetic)

    a shunt, the simplest design, uses the main winding for the excitation power; an excitation boost system (EBS) is a shunt design with a separate small generator added to temporarily provide an energy boost when the main coil voltage drops (for example, due to a fault). The boost generator is not rated for permanent operation;

  3. Induction generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_generator

    Power factor correcting capacitors can be added externally to neutralize a constant amount of the variable reactive excitation current. After starting, an induction generator can use a capacitor bank to produce reactive excitation current, but the isolated power system's voltage and frequency are not self-regulating and destabilize readily.

  4. Synchronization (alternating current) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronization...

    In an alternating current (AC) electric power system, synchronization is the process of matching the frequency, phase and voltage of a generator or other source to an electrical grid in order to transfer power. If two unconnected segments of a grid are to be connected to each other, they cannot safely exchange AC power until they are synchronized.

  5. Electric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

    A magnetohydrodynamic generator directly extracts electric power from moving hot gases through a magnetic field, without the use of rotating electromagnetic machinery. MHD generators were originally developed because the output of a plasma MHD generator is a flame, well able to heat the boilers of a steam power plant. The first practical design ...

  6. Hydrogen-cooled turbo generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen-cooled_turbo...

    A power plant turbine generator set: A steam turbine (blue) drives an electrical generator (yellow) with an excitation generator (front). A 500 MW Siemens multi stage steam turbine with generator set (rear, red) A hydrogen-cooled turbo generator is a turbo generator with gaseous hydrogen as a coolant.

  7. Capability curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capability_curve

    The fixed speed wind turbines without a power converter (also known as "Type 1" and "Type 2" [5]) cannot be used for voltage control. They simply absorb the reactive power (like any typical induction machine), so a switched capacitor bank is usually used to correct the power factor to unity.

  8. Kyiv Pumped Storage Power Plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Kyiv_Pumped_Storage_Power_Plant

    The building of the pumped-storage power plant is connected with the upper basin by 6-pressure reinforced concrete and metal pipelines with a diameter of 3.8 m. The upper basin was created at a height of 70 m above the level of the Kyiv reservoir with a useful volume - 3700000 cubic meters, where during the night decrease in energy consumption ...

  9. Voltage control and reactive power management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_control_and...

    The task of additional reactive power compensation (also known as voltage compensation) is assigned to compensating devices: [7] passive (either permanently connected or switched) sinks of reactive power (e.g., shunt reactors that are similar to transformers in construction, with a single winding and iron core [9]).
