Abstract
Abstract There is disclosed a system for predicting desynchronization of a synchronous machine by detecting a phenomenon of radical variation of the magnetic flux in the gap of a synchronous machine immediately before falling in an asynchronous state. For example, a functional value of the fundamental harmonic component and that of the higher harmonic component of the flux in the gap are detected for comparing the variation of each functional value with a predetermined reference level to predict desynchronization of the synchronous machine.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
179 words
A method for predicting and regulating desynchronization of a synchronous machine, in which a voltage detected through a voltage transformer from an armature terminal of the synchronous machine is compared with a reference voltage by a voltage deviation detector and the resulting voltage deviation performs excitation of a field winding through an automatic voltage regulator and an excitation unit, and in which a gap flux detector is installed in the synchronous machine to detect its gap flux from which a functional value of a fundamental harmonic component and/or a higher harmonic component is detected through an analyzer and the resulting functional value of the fundamental harmonic component and/or the higher harmonic component is compared with a predetermined reference level by a signal level comparator for predicting the desynchronization by detecting a shift from the reference level, the resulting detected signal for predicting the desynchronization being added through an amplifier and an adder to the voltage deviation obtained by the voltage deviation detector and then being fed to the automatic voltage regulator for regulating the excitation of the field winding.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
65 words
The method for predicting and regulating desynchronization according to claim 1, wherein the desynchronization is predicted by detecting a decrement of either the fundamental harmonic component φ 1 of the gap flux or the ratio φ 1 /φk of the fundamental harmonic component φ 1 to the higher harmonic component φk (k=2,3,4 . . . ) of the gap flux below the predetermined reference level.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
62 words
The method for predicting and regulating desynchronization according to claim 1 wherein the desynchronization is predicted by detecting an increment of anyone of the decreasing rate (-dφ 1 /dt) of the fundamental harmonic component φ 1 , the increasing rate (dφk/dt) of the higher harmonic component φk and the wave form distortion factor of the gap flux over the predetermined reference level.
