Dragline Sync Excitation Enhancements What is needed for good dragline operation? Maintaining Dragline Trail Cable Voltage Sync Motor Basics and Operation Sync Field Excitation Evolution & Issues Sync Field Excitation System Performance
Slide 2
We Drive Industry
Good Dragline Operation

Voltage must be held to range of Plus 10% to -5% High Side range limit due to motor voltage stress Low side range due to sync torque loss with voltage drop: pull out!
Slide 3
We Drive Industry
Why Use Sync Motors?

REACTIVE POWER VOLTAGE CONTROL! NO SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR WITH SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR
RESULT: GREATLY REDUCED VOLTAGE SWINGS AT BUS 2 & 3 RESULT: LARGE VOLTAGE SWINGS AT BUS 2 & 3
Slide 4
We Drive Industry
Challenge: Pit Conditions Changing
When Draglines are moved to new digging areas, Z3 [pit distribution impedance] changes. Field Excitation Control set up for best voltage control at Bus 3 may have to change to keep Bus 3 volts within -5% + 10% motor limits.

2 Hz Rotor Power Where Can It Go?

One Phase Model
POWER SOURCE
Disturbance power flows into power system, swinging AC volts! Amortiseur winding provides damping torque.
Slide 16
We Drive Industry
2 Hz MG Set Resonance Effects

Sudden load impacts shift sync motor power [torque] angle Rotor overshoots, swings back and forth. Rotor angle pushes watts and vars in and out of dragline sometimes in huge swings Voltage swings can trip off dragline and nearby equipment
Slide 17
We Drive Industry
Notes & Experience with 2 Hz Problems

All sync MG sets have 2-3 Hz resonance! Amortiseur windings of low starting current motors [400-450% vs standard 600%] have low damping and prone to worse 2 Hz problems. Weak pit feeder gives low damping worsens 2Hz. Using DC kW as field amps reference has shown to be best in 2 Hz performance and voltage stability High forcing [ratio of exciter max volts to sync field hot drop] helps.
Slide 18
We Drive Industry
Example Traces of 2 Hz Phenomenon

[before analog regulator modifications]
Large power swings show up at trail cable as measured by PTs 1. Freq = 1/0.467 = 2.14 Hz 2. kW Transducer is not lying! Rotor oscillations are really causing wild power swings

Sync Field Current vs Kw Regulator [Power-Trak]

Advantages vs PF or WATT-VAR Regulators
Lower Overall Cost Easier to understand, easier to adjust Better voltage regulation from:
Independent regulation of motoring and regen allows lower field amps at light load As line voltage from utility side drops, sync motor automatically produces more compensating kVARs to hold voltage.

Traditional Power Trak System Limitations

Inherent delays in feedback quantities themselves
AC kw is a response to digging loads after MG inertia AC kW changes AFTER need for more excitation
