The first term is the dc component. The presence of
the dc component ensures that the current does not

Open-Circuit Characteristic (OCC)
Et eq d Ladifd
Hence, OCC relating to terminal voltage and field
current gives saturation characteristic of the d-axis

For salient pole machines, since q-axis flux is
largely in air, Laq does not vary significantly with
saturation
Ksq=1 for all loading conditions
For round rotor machines, there is saturation in
both axes
q-axis saturation characteristic not usually
available
the general industry practice is to assume
Ksq = Ksd
For a more accurate representation, it may be
desirable to better account for q-axis saturation of
round rotor machines
q-axis saturates appreciably more than the d-
axis, due to the presence of rotor teeth in the
magnetic path
Figure 3.32 shows the errors introduced by
assuming q-axis saturation to be same as that of
d-axis, based on actual measurements on a 500
MW unit at Lambton GS in Ontario
Figure shows differences between measured
and computed values of rotor angle and field
current
the error in rotor angle is as high as 10%, being
higher in the underexcited region
the error in the field current is as high as 4%,
being greater in the overexcited region

The q-axis saturation characteristic is not readily
available
It can, however, be fairly easily determined from
steady-state measurements of field current and
rotor angle at different values of terminal
voltage, active and reactive power output
Such measurements also provide d-axis
saturation characteristics under load
Figure 3.33 shows the d- and q-axis saturation
characteristics derived from steady-state
measurements on the 500 MW Lambton unit

Example 3.3
Considers the 555 MVA unit at Lambton GS and
examines
the effect of representing q-axis saturation
characteristic distinct from that of d-axis
the effect of reactive power output on rotor angle
