A New Synthetic Loading for Large Induction Machines with No Feedback into the Power System

Full load testing of large induction machines are constrained by the limitations in the power supply and loading equipment of the manufacturer's facilities resulting in costly set-up time. A new synthetic loading method is proposed based on a bang-bang phase control strategy. The rated power oscillation created is routed to an auxiliary system and the source hydra has to provide only the total losses of the system, without seeing the excessive …
