Abstract
This paper intends to contribute to the revision process of the IEEE Standard 115 by demonstrating the applicability of the standstill frequency response (SSFR) test on large salient pole hydrogenerators. The presented SSFR tests are carried out on a 55.6-MVA salient pole machine with laminated rotor, non-continuous damper windings, and a nonintegral slot number. The IEEE-115 SSFR test procedure is applied with special care to rotor positioning as well as accurate data acquisition in the low-frequency range. The maximum likelihood estimation method is utilized for machine parameter identification from the SSFR tests. Obtained parameters are compared with design values in addition to the ones obtained using traditional 'sudden no-load three-phase short-circuit,' Dalton-Cameron and 'open stator d-Axis transient time constant' methods. The accuracy of parameters is also confirmed by comparing the measured three-phase short-circuit current waveforms with the ones obtained by simulating the SSFR-based machine models in an electromagnetic transient-Type software. Unlike previous SSFR test cases on large salient pole hydrogenerators, accurate results are obtained.
