On‐line educational tool for the parallel operation of the synchronous generators

Abstract

This study presents a PC and a PIC microcontroller based an on-line educational tool for the monitoring and controlling of the parallel operation of the synchronous generators. The presented tool measures the voltages, the frequencies, the phase sequences, and the synchronism time data of the generators through microcontroller. The measured data, the voltage graphics, and the status of the parallel operation conditions are monitored on the computer instantaneously. The parallel operation of the generators is controlled with the developed tool automatically. The educational tool is user-friendly, real-time, reliable, and precise. ß

Real-Time Monitoring and Control of the Parameters of an Induction Motor

“…On the other hand, as DAQs have no internal memory or processing capacity, they are only used to collect, transfer, analyze and evaluate data about the system [10]- [12]. Microcontrollers are restricted to simple applications due to their disadvantages such as slow processing speed and low program memory [13]. Different control technologies are used for monitoring and control of the systems, whereas the communication between a system and a user is generally realized online via wireless communication techniques such as Rf, ZigBee, Bluetooth and GPRS in remote monitoring [14]- [17].…”
