SYNCHRONOUS MACHINES

In the per unit system adopted here, in order to have reciprocal mutuals, the volt-ampere base of
the field had to be equal to the three phase stator volt-ampere base. Since in actual operation the
field volt-ampere is in the order of 0.5% of the stator volt-ampere, the value of per unit
e
fd
for
typical operating condition would be in the order of 0.005pu. A new per unit field voltage is
therefore defined as
fd

E = (5.84)
This new variable is proportional to the original per unit field voltage

. We now have the
following steady state relationship

With the variable
E defined as E = x

E = 1.0 pu. On open-circuit, neglecting saturation , when E = 1.0, e

(per unit terminal voltage) =
1.0.
E is proportional to the field current, not to the field voltage, except in the steady state.

Since the phase displacement between

we can write, from the definition of reactive power,

Subtransient and Transient Reactances and Time Constants
In this discussion only one damper winding on each axis is assumed. With all rotor circuits short
circuited, let voltages be suddenly applied to the stator so that only
d axis current flows.
Immediately after the voltage applied, the flux linkages

and
ψ

cannot change and so are
still zero. Therefore, from (5.61) and (5.62), at
