Performance Evaluation of a 22.5/30 KW 270 Volts Direct Current Generator System

Abstract

This report documents the electrical system performance testing of a 12-pole, wound rotor machine with integral 3:1 speed increaser and rectifier, 22.5/30 kW 270 Vdc generator system. The performance testing was accomplished in the generator test facility of the Aerospace Power Division (WL/POOC-1). This report also documents WL/POOC-l's Data Acquisition System modified for 270 Vdc test and analysis. Generator system parameters measured include transient responses to load applications and removals, ripple voltages, distortion spectrums, and fault currents. Results were compared to electrical system characteristics specified in MIL-STD-704E.
