Finite element method applied to magnetic flux analysis in large synchronous machines with short circuit faults in the rotor

ABSTRACT This paper presents a study of magnetic flux density in a large synchronous large size machine when it is working as a generator. Finite elements software has been used to obtain the same physical and electrical characteristics of the real machine. From the results conveyed from the simulations, it is possible to find the optimal points where the magnetic flux sensors will be placed and to determine short-circuit faults in the rotor coils. The work results are also a reference to evaluate and compare the magnitudes taken by the sensors without creating short-circuits in the actual machine coil. Besides that, the proposed model based on finite elements can be used to make simulation tests of new kinds of sensors.
