“…In the present bibliography, one finds evaluations of capacitor banks on self-excited induction generator, i.e., operating in isolation [1]. In terms of the generator connected directly to the electric network at a constant speed, a detailed analysis is provided in [2], [3] of the power flow and the efficiency of the asynchronous induction generator connected to the electric network. In [4] a study is presented of the induction generator in steady state and the transient three-phase self-excited induction generator connected to the electric network, with emphasis placed on the dynamics of the generator.…”

The design of the capacitor bank to be placed with the squirrel cage induction generator, when operating with a direct connection to the distribution system, is performed from the value of the magnetization reactance of the machine. Based on the experimental procedures, the necessary reactive power is simulated according to the induction generator loading. Therefore, with the increase in generated active power, a larger portion of reactive is required. The simulation indicates the values of ideal capacitors. Thus, an analysis is made of which magnetization reactance factor is ideal for the capacitor bank design designated for the generator. The characteristic curve for capacitor bank sizing is related to the load torque loading depending on the active power generated. Thus, this work contributes to the analysis of the self-excitation curve of the three-phase induction generator that operates in parallel with the steady-state power distribution network. Obtaining the active power generated as a function of the absorbed reactive power required for induction generator magnetization can be found.INDEX TERMS Electric machines, distributed power generation, generators, power generation, power generation economics.

A Technical and Economic Project Analysis of Asynchronous Technology in Distributed Generation Using Methane Gas From Pig Farms

The focus of this paper is to study the asynchronous generator (generator of squirrel-cage induction), as an alternative distributed generation technology, in particular the driving of machines using methane gas from pig farms as their fuel. Pig farming has grown dramatically over recent years. This agroindustrial activity produces huge quantities of methane gas which is released into the atmosphere depleting the ozone layer, in addition to contributing to the greenhouse effect. When the subject is environmental concerns, methane is known to be many times more aggressive than carbon. Since the production of this gas is inherent to the pig farming industry, its effects can be mitigated by using it as fuel in an engine to drive an electricity generator, while adding value to the production chain.

Summary The aim of this study is the behavior of the squirrel‐cage induction generator in distributed generation operating under real working conditions (presence of harmonics and voltage and current imbalance) connected directly to the distribution network. In this case, the primary machine has methane gas from pig farming as fuel. In distributed generation, there are technical, operational, quality, and safety problems (accidental supply to the distribution network by generators or distribution branches). In this work, the objective is to study the behavior of the squirrel‐cage induction generator in the distributed generation, while operating in real operating conditions (presence of harmonics and voltage and current imbalance). In this way, the induction generator operates in unbalanced non‐sinusoidal steady‐state condition and a technical feasibility analysis when the generator loses the distribution network and does not require an islanding monitoring system due to demagnetization that occurs in the induction generator. The experimental tests are in steady state and with the squirrel‐cage induction generator entering the island. Thus, the computer simulation was divided into two stages, first in the steady state and after the island analysis of the induction generator.
