Investigation of a Power Synchro System: Analysis and Experimental Results

An actual synchro system is examined with particular attention to dynamic behavior. Using frequency response and eigenvalue analysis, dynamic behavior is examined over a wide speed range. Experimental results obtained by frequency response measurements on the actual system are presented. Predicted values are correlated with experimental results and conclusions drawn regarding system performance, in particular concerning stability. Some steady-state results are also included to show the effectiveness of the model in predicting performance.
