Abstract :
This paper sets forth the analysis and performance characterization of the dual-winding reluctance machine fed with direct current control winding excitation operating as a generator. Saturation effect, core and harmonic losses are included in the dynamic and steady state models of the generator feeding either an impedance or a rectifier load which give calculation results that compare favorably with the experiment
