| Summary: | Today, synchronous generators are broadly employed in the industry. The thyristor rectifier in the static excitation system of synchronous generators is responsible for supplying the DC voltage of the excitation winding. In these rectifiers, a high-frequency component is generated at the output of the DC voltage, during turning on and off of the thyristor. These high-frequency components charge the generator's parasitic capacitors. The voltage induced in these capacitors induces the voltage in the synchronous generator shaft. In this paper, the induced voltage analysis in the generator shaft is performed. Then, modeling, simulation, and experimental laboratory results of pulse width modulation are performed in the static generator excitation system. The induced voltage of the generator shaft is examined by applying this rectifier and it is compared and analyzed with the results of the thyristor rectifier. The hiring of a pulse width modulation rectifier has had a great impact on reducing the induced shaft voltage.
