AC Machine
Alternating current (ac) is the primary source of electrical energy.
It is less expensive to produce and transmit than direct current. For this reason, and because ac voltage is induced into the armature of all generators, ac machines are generally more practical.
May function as a generator (mechanical to electrical) or a motor (electrical to mechanical)
DC Machine & AC machine
• DC motor - ends of the coil connect to a split ring to 'rectify' the emf produced AC motor - no need recification, so don't need split rings.
AC Motor
As in the DC motor case, a current is passed through the coil, generating a torque on the coil.• Since the current is alternating, the motor will run smoothly only at the frequency of the sine wave.
AC Generator • This process can be described in terms of
Faraday's law when you see that the rotation of the coil continually changes the magnetic flux through the coil and therefore generates a voltage

How Does an Electric Generator Work?
AC Machine
Two major classes of machines;
(i) Synchronous machines.
(ii) Induction machines.
Synchronous machines are ac machine that have a field circuit supplied by an external dc source.– DC field winding on the rotor,– AC armature winding on the stator
Origin of name: syn = equal, chronos = timeSynchronous machines are called ‘synchronous’
because their mechanical shaft speed is directly related to the power system’s line frequency.

where P is the number of magnetic poles
fe is the power line frequency. Typical machines have two-poles, four-poles, and six-poles
The frequency of the induced voltage is related to the rotor speed by:
Construction
• Energy is stored in the inductance• As the rotor moves, there is a change in the
energy stored• Either energy is extracted from the magnetic
field (and becomes mechanical energy – motor)• Or energy is stored in the magnetic field and
eventually flows into the electrical circuit that powers the stator – generator
Synchronous Machine
Construction
• DC field windings are mounted on the (rotating) rotor - which is thus a rotating electromagnet
• AC windings are mounted on the (stationary) stator resulting in three-phase AC stator voltages and currents
The main part in the synchronous machines arei) Rotorii) Stator
Synchronous Machine
Synchronous Machine
Rotor There are two types of rotors used in synchronous
machines: cylindrical (or round) rotors and salient pole rotors.
Salient pole rotors are less expensive than round rotors. Cylindrical ( round) rotor – low speed machines (hydro-
turbines) Salient-Pole rotor - high speed machines (steam-
turbines)
Construction-Rotor i) Cylindrical (or round) rotor
Synchronous Machine
i) Salient-pole rotor
Synchronous machine rotors are simply rotating electromagnets built to have as many poles as are produced by the stator windings.
Dc currents flowing in the field coils surrounding each pole magnetize the rotor poles.
The magnetic field produced by the rotor poles locks in with a rotating stator field, so that the shaft and the stator field rotate in synchronism.
Salient poles are too weak mechanically and develop too much wind resistance and noise to be used in large, high-speed generators driven by steam or gas turbines. For these big machines, the rotor must be a solid, cylindrical steel forging to provide the necessary strength.
Axial slots are cut in the surface of the cylinder to accommodate the field windings.
Since the rotor poles have constant polarity they must be supplied with direct current.
This current may be provided by an external dc generator or by a rectifier. In this case the leads from the field winding are connected to insulated rings mounted concentrically on the shaft. Stationary contacts called brushes ride on these slip rings to carry current to the rotating field windings from the dc supply. The brushes are made of a carbon compound to provide a good contact with low mechanical friction. An external dc generator used to provide current is called an “exciter.
Synchronous Machine
Stator The stator of a synchronous machine carries the armature or load
winding which is a three-phase winding.
The armature winding is formed by interconnecting various conductors in slots spread over the periphery of the machine’s stator. Often, more than one independent three phase winding is on the stator. An arrangement of a three-phase stator winding is shown in Figure below. Notice that the windings of the three-phases are displaced from each other in space.

Synchronous Generator
Equivalent circuit model – synchronous generator
If the generator operates at a terminal voltage VT while supplying a load corresponding to an armature current Ia, then;
In an actual synchronous machine, the reactance is much greater than the armature resistance, in which case;
Among the steady-state characteristics of a synchronous generator, its voltage regulation and power-angle characteristics are the most important ones. As for transformers, the voltage regulation of a synchronous generator is defined at a given load as;

Power and Torque
In generators, not all the mechanical power going into a synchronous generator becomes electric power out of the machine
The power losses in generator are represented by difference between output power and input power shown in power flow diagram below
Synchronous Generator
LossesRotor - resistance; iron parts moving in a magnetic field causing currents to be generated in the rotor body - resistance of connections to the rotor (slip rings)Stator - resistance; magnetic losses (e.g., hysteresis)Mechanical - friction at bearings, friction at slip ringsStray load losses - due to non-uniform current distribution
Synchronous Generator
The input mechanical power is the shaft power in the generator given by equation:
The power converted from mechanical to electrical form internally is given by
The real electric output power of the synchronous generator can be expressed in line and phase quantities as
and reactive output power
Synchronous Generator
In real synchronous machines of any size, the armature resistance RA is more than 10 times smaller than the synchronous reactance XS (Xs >> RA). Therefore, RA can be ignored

Solution.
The machines are called induction machines because of the rotor voltage which produces the rotor current and
the rotor magnetic field is induced in the rotor windings. Induction generator has many disadvantages and low
efficiency. Therefore induction machines are usually referred to as induction motors.
Induction Machine
Induction motor• Induction motors use shorted
wire loops on a rotating armature and obtain their torque from currents induced in these loops by the changing magnetic field produced in the stator (stationary) coils.
• The current in the stator coil is in the direction shown and increasing. The induced voltage in the coil shown drives current and results in a clockwise torque.
Induction motor• Induction in Armature Coils
Induction motor• A large percentage of small AC
motors are classed as induction motors. This implies that there is no current supplied to the rotating coils. These coils are closed loops which have large currents induced in them because of their low resistance.
• An induction motor must achieve a rotating magnetic field to continue to exert a torque on the armature coils. In this example, the rotating field is achieved by the extra coils on the pole pieces.
Induction motor
There are two different types of induction motor rotors that can be placed inside the stator.
1. Squirrel cage – the conductors would look like one of the exercise wheels that squirrel or hamsters run on.
2. Wound rotor – have a brushes and slip ring at the end of rotor

Induction Machine
The stator’s rotating field cuts the rotors conductors
thereby inducing voltages in the rotor circuit. The induced (Faraday) voltages cause currents to flow in
the rotor. The rotor’s currents produce a rotating (rotor) field which
is always aligned (travels with) the stator’s rotating field. The whole process is essentially that of a transformer. The induction motor is sometimes referred as a rotating
transformer .

Speed of rotation (synchronous speed)
P is the number of magnetic poles designed into the machine,
fe is the power line frequency.
The Concept of Rotor Slip The voltage induced in a rotor bar of an induction motor
depends on the speed of the rotor relative to the magnetic fields
1. Slip speed – defined as the difference between synchronous speed (magnetic field's speed) and rotor speed.
nslip = nsync - nm
nslip = slip speed of the machine
nsync = speed of the magnetic fields
nm = mechanical shaft speed of motor
The Concept of Rotor Slip
2. Slip – defined as the relative speed expressed on a per-unit (or sometimes as percentage) basis
If the rotor turns at synchronous speed, s = 0, while if the rotor is stationary (standstill), s = 1.Mechanical speed (rotor's speed) can be expressed in term of synchronous speed and slip as below:
The Electrical Frequency on the Rotor
The rotor frequency can be expressed as fr = sfe
where fr = rotor frequency
s = slip
fe = electrical frequency
Alternative to find fr is defined as below
Induction Motor – Equivalent Circuit
Same as a transformer Stator is connected to the ac source, and the rotor’s voltage and current are produced by induction.
The primary of the transformer corresponds to the stator of the machine, whereas the secondary corresponds to the rotor
