Experimental study of the saturation and the cross-magnetizing phenomenon in saturated synchronous machines

The cross-magnetizing effect in both the d- and q-axis in a small salient-pole machine was measured. Two simple equations describing the cross-magnetizing effect in both axis directions are derived. An accurate saturation representation that includes the effect of both the machine-saturated reactances and the cross-magnetizing phenomena is also given. In addition to this, the modified phasor diagram and power/load angle relationship are obtained. The results of the machine output power obtained by this technique show a good agreement with those obtained from test. The saturation effect in changing the power/load angle curves is seen to be noticeably large and depends mainly upon the cross-magnetizing effect. >
