To round off the active components of the power generation system, we need an electric motor that can work in the generator and motor mode of operation. In the generating mode, the shaft of the machine is started by giving it mechanical energy from external source, such as a turbine. In this case, the voltage is induced on the stator, which transforms the mechanical energy into the electric current. In the motor regeneration, the stator of the machine is connected to the multiphase grid, and the electric current generates a rotating magnetic field in the engine core, causing the rotor to rotate, transforming the electric energy into the mechanical.
FESB has donated two electric motors, one DC and one AC. Tests will be performed alternately, with both electric motors. After the examination, conclusions will be drawn on the positive and a decision on future usage will be made.
