Abstract :
This paper presents a numerical approach useful for determining the modes of transient response of a synchronous generator. The approach is based upon the Floquet theory of periodic time-variable systems. A computer algorithm for system transition matrix eigenvalue analysis is described and applied to a three-phase synchronous machine.
