Design and Tests of a Static Excitation System for Industrial and Utility Steam Turbine-Generators

This paper contains a description of the theory of operation and an equivalent circuit of a new static excitation system for large generators. Design considerations, including protective features and rectifier cooling system, are discussed, and confirmatory factory qualification tests are listed.
