This work presents the performance analysis of a single phase interior permanent magnet synchronous generator. The stator magneto motive force (MMF) waveform of the single phase winding function was developed. The mathematical model in phase variables by which the performance of the generator can be investigated under various operating conditions was developed. Self-excitation of the generator was achieved through pre-excitation by the permanent magnet in the rotor, and then regulated by connecting 30µF capacitor across the terminals of the stator winding. The performances of the generator under constant speed, constant capacitor value and varying power factor loads was investigated. The voltage build-up characteristics and dynamic loss of load performance was studied. The magnitudes of the output power, real power, load voltage and load current increases with increase in load power factors while the phase voltage, phase current, capacitor current and the reactive power decreases with increase in power factor loads. The generator has shown to be capable of stand-alone power source. Simulations were carried out using the Simulink® toolkit in MATLAB® software.
