Exciter Software
- Configuration and Loading: The exciter software is configured and loaded into the controllers through the toolbox interface. Once loaded, it resides within the controllers, ready to execute control strategies and algorithms to ensure optimal generator performance.
- Visual Representation: On the toolbox screen, the exciter software is depicted using control blocks interconnected to illustrate the signal flow. This visual representation allows operators to monitor and understand the logic and interactions of different components within the excitation system.
- Signal Conditioning: Generator voltages and currents, acquired from Potential Transformers (PTs) and Current Transformers (CTs), are routed to the EPCT (Excitation Potential Current Transformer) board. Acting as a signal conditioner, the EPCT board isolates and scales these signals, ensuring accuracy and compatibility with the controller's input requirements.
- Data Processing and Calculation: The conditioned signals are then transmitted to the controller, where software conversion algorithms come into play. These algorithms process the received signals to calculate various system variables, including voltage, current, and frequency. These calculated variables serve as inputs for the excitation regulator, limiter, and protection functions.
- Regulation and Control: The exciter software utilizes the calculated system variables to regulate the excitation system's output, ensuring that the generator operates within specified parameters. It dynamically adjusts excitation levels to maintain desired voltage and frequency levels, optimizing generator performance under varying load conditions.
- Limiter and Protection Functions: In addition to regulation, the exciter software incorporates limiter and protection functions to safeguard the generator against abnormal conditions and faults. These functions monitor system variables in real-time and activate protective measures, such as limiting excitation or tripping the generator, to prevent damage and ensure safe operation.
