Integration options for synchronous generator

在过去几年中，同步电机比其他发电系统更受欢迎。它们对于需要最少维护和提供平滑励磁控制的应用尤其重要。在这种情况下，具有单独励磁器的无刷同步电机是一个很好的候选者，然而，具有单独的励磁器会降低系统的紧凑性，同时引入热困难。我的工作将提出一个两级同步发电机的解决方案，通过将励磁机集成到主机的有源或无源组件来消除这种限制。这将使我能够实现更紧凑的机器设计，具有更好的热管理，增加功率密度和减少轴向长度。

The popularity of synchronous machines over other power generating systems has dramatically increased over the past few years. They are particularly important for applications that require minimum maintenance and provides smooth excitation control. Brushless synchronous machines with a separate exciter is a good candidate in such cases, however, having a separate exciter reduces the compactness of the system whilst introducing thermal difficulties. My work will propose a solution with a two-stage synchronous generator to eliminate such limitations by integrating the exciter machine to the main machine's active or passive components. This will allow me to achieve a more compact machine design with better thermal management, increased power density and reduced axial length.
