Out-puts from a Generator - Governors
•
- •Governor ensures frequency at a set value by increasing / decreasing the fuel input
Two types of Governors :
Pneumatic : Fuel flow is controlled by valve position control. Control Input : DC Voltage
Electronic : Fuel flow is controlled by a total servo mechanism. Control input : DC Voltage pulses
Out-puts from a Generator - Voltage
- •Voltage is induced in the stator winding
- Terminal voltage depends upon :
- No. of conductors in series per winding
- Speed at which magnetic field cuts the winding
- Strength of the magnetic field
Voltage Control
- •Nominal Voltage = 415 V, 11 kV
- Voltage can vary due to load fluctuations
- Terminal voltage is controlled by
