Abstract

DC winding induced voltage pulsation in the wound field synchronous machines (WFSMs) will cause dc winding current ripple, challenge the dc power supply, and deteriorate the control performance, especially at high speed. In this paper, the influence of dc winding configuration including the dc coil number and the parallel branch number on its induced voltage pulsation is investigated for WFSMs. Based on the modeling of both open-circuit and on-load dc winding induced voltages, the preferred dc winding configurations for WFSMs having various stator/rotor pole number combinations with double layer or single layer ac windings are obtained and validated by finite element (FE) analysis on four typical partitioned stator WFSMs (PS-WFSMs). A PS-WFSM prototype is built and tested to validate both analytical and FE analyses.
