 width=This course covers the comprehensive study of synchronous machines, their operations, and the impact of varying parameters. For instance, it delves into the analysis of electrical machines, focusing on the synchronous machine, and explains the equivalent circuit of a synchronous machine, the impact of field current on induced voltage, and the role of armature current when the machine is loaded. The course also discusses the performance analysis of a synchronous machine, how to calculate the parameters if their values are known, and the importance of the torque angle in a synchronous machine. It further elaborates on the concept of power delivery in synchronous generators, the operations of synchronous machines, focusing on the generator mode and motor mode, and the operations of a synchronous machine, focusing on the effects of varying excitation and the role of the phasor diagram. The course concludes with a detailed explanation of short circuit and open circuit tests on non-salient pole synchronous machines.
