Abstract

This paper presents a novel alternative to estimate armature circuit parameters of large utility generators using real time operating data. The proposed approach uses the Hartley series for fitting operating data (voltage and currents measurements). The essence of the method is the use of linear state estimation to identify the coefficients of the Hartley series. The approach is tested for noise corruption likely to be found in measurements. The method is found to be suitable for the processing of digital fault recorder data to identify synchronous machine parameters.
