TY - CHAP U1 - Konferenzveröffentlichung A1 - Pötter, Jan A1 - Pfost, Martin A1 - Schullerus, Gernot T1 - Design aspects of a novel brushless excitation system for synchronous machines T2 - 2019 IEEE International Electric Machines & Drives Conference (IEMDC) : May 12-15, 2019, Westin San Diego, San Diego, CA N2 - In this work design rules for a novel brushless excitation system for externally excited synchronous machines are discussed. The concept replaces slip rings with a fullbridge active rectifier and a controller mounted on the rotor. An AC signal induced from the stator is used to charge the rotor DC link. The DC current for the rotor excitation is provided from this DC link source. Finite element analysis of an existing machine is used to analyze the practicability of the excitation system.
