AUTOMATIC ALTERNATOR SYNCHRONIZING FOR INDUSTRIOUS | SCADA BASED
The manual method of
synchronization demands a skilled operator and the method is suitable for no-load operation or normal frequency condition.
Under emergency conditions such as lowering of frequency or synchronizing
of large machines a very fast action is needed, which may not be possible for a
human operator. Thus there is a need of auto synchronizer in a power station or
in an industrial establishment where generators are employed. This project describes
a microcontroller-based set up for synchronizing a three-phase alternator to a
bus bar. Also existing methods of synchronization mentioned. Here we are using an embedded system for automatic
synchronization unit is fast, cost-effective,
reliable, and precise to be used for monitoring, Measuring, and parallel operations of the
synchronous generators.
Detailed report:
The main scope of the project is a fully automated microcontroller-based
synchronizing of alternators without any unbalancing of the synchronizing process. The manual method of synchronization demands a skilled operator To avoid the following effects during the
synchronizing process What
can go wrong?
Alternators can fail in
numerous ways, leaving you in your driveway with a silent ignition and a
drained battery. The creation of the electric field and electromotive force
within the alternator subsequently creates a serious amount of heat, and once
the components within the assembly have gone through numerous heat cycles after
every drive, the materials within will naturally degrade and cause the
alternator to become less efficient in its electrical production.
Modern alternators
thankfully come with cooling fans in-built to the front and rear of the
alternator assembly which works in tandem with the spinning rotor to generate
some cooling airflow. This has therefore vastly increased the longevity of
alternators in comparison to the older units that used a single external fan.
High-output alternators are now also regularly used in modern cars which
produce higher voltages at idle and throughout driving to cope with larger
electrical components like fancy sound systems and head-up displays.
