Experimental Stand for the Study of a Three-phase Synchronous Generator with Permanent Super Magnets

This work presents an experimental stand for the study of a three-phase synchronous generator in reverse construction with permanent super magnets. This stand has been built at the Electrical Machinery Laboratory of “Vasile Alecsandri” University of Bacau. Synchronous generators with permanent magnets are used for producing electricity in wind power stations. A synchronous generator of normal construction is composed of two armatures: a fixed armature named stator and a moving one, named rotor; the latter is concentrically located inside the fixed armature. This experiment has used a synchronous generator with permanent super magnets in reverse construction, where the fixed armature named stator is located inside the moving armature, named rotor. With the help of the experimental stand the characteristics of the synchronous generator with permanent super magnets in reverse construction have been determined.
