  2. Shunt generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunt_generator

    Generator separately excited by battery Self exciting generators Series on left, shunt on right. A shunt generator is a type of electric generator in which field winding and armature winding are connected in parallel, and in which the armature supplies both the load current and the field current for the excitation (generator is therefore self excited).

  3. Static synchronous compensator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_synchronous_compensator

    The VI characteristics of typical STATCOM. As a STATCOM's VSC operation is based on changing current flow to affect voltage, its voltage-current (VI) characteristics control how it operates. [23] The VI characteristic can be divided into two distinct parts: a slopped region between its inductive and capacitive maximums, and its maximum ...

  4. Current sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sensing

    Shunt resistor. The common and simple approach to current sensing is the use of a shunt resistor. That the voltage drop across the shunt is proportional to its current flow, i.e. ohm's law, makes the low resistance current shunt a very popular choice for current measurement system with its low cost and high reliability.

  5. Excitation (magnetic) - Wikipedia

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

    The critical field resistance is the maximum field circuit resistance for a given speed with which the shunt generator would excite. The shunt generator will build up voltage only if field circuit resistance is less than critical field resistance. It is a tangent to the open circuit characteristics of the generator at a given speed.

  6. Power-flow study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-flow_study

    In power engineering, the power-flow study, or load-flow study, is a numerical analysis of the flow of electric power in an interconnected system. A power-flow study usually uses simplified notations such as a one-line diagram and per-unit system, and focuses on various aspects of AC power parameters, such as Voltage, voltage angles, real power and reactive power.

  7. Critical field resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_field_resistance

    In a DC shunt generator, the voltage induced across the armature, V a, is directly proportional to the flux acting across it, The flux in a DC generator is directly proportional to the field current, I f. The critical field resistance is defined as the maximum field circuit resistance (for a given speed) with which the shunt generator would ...

  8. Shunt (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shunt_(electrical)

    A shunt in the ungrounded conductor must be insulated for the full circuit voltage to ground; the measuring instrument must be inherently isolated from ground or must include a resistive voltage divider or an isolation amplifier between the relatively high common-mode voltage and lower voltages inside the instrument. A shunt in the grounded ...

  9. Symbolic circuit analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_Circuit_Analysis

    Symbolic circuit analysis is a formal technique of circuit analysis to calculate the behaviour or characteristic of an electric/electronic circuit with the independent variables (time or frequency), the dependent variables (voltages and currents), and (some or all of) the circuit elements represented by symbols.
