Synchronous-asynchronous turbine generators

image1      The Chair of Electromechanics of the National Technical University of Ukraine "Kiev Polytechnic Institute named I.Sikorsky" long time has been conducting research and development of new types of turbo generators with advanced functional capabilities called asynchronous (ACTГ) or synchronous-asynchronous turbogenerators. Unlike the traditional synchronous turbogenerators, AСТГ can work both in synchronous and asynchronous modes, generate and consume reactive power and provide optimal modes of operation of the power system. Investigations of the creation of asynchronous type turbogenerators were begun in the 70s of the last century by the head of the chair of electromechanics of the Kiev Polytechnic Institute, corresponding member of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine Postnikov I.M. The works were carried out together with the specialists of the Institute of Electrodynamics of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine and experts of the plant "Electrotyazhmash" (Kharkiv). The physical processes in the AСTГ and their operating modes were investigated, the optimal parameters of the design were substantiated, etc.
     Two samples ASTG-200-2 power of 200 MW were first made in the plant "Electrotyazhmash" (Kharkiv) and put into operation at Burshtynskaya TPP (Ukraine). Successful long time experience of these generators at Burshtynskaya TPP confirmed the effectiveness of the developed technical solutions
