Dynamic Performance of Synchronous Generator in Steam Power Plant

This paper presents dynamic performance of synchronous generator in steam power plant. Steam power plants are the most popular power plants to date. Until the end of 2018, 48.43% of the total installed capacity of power plants in Indonesia is this type of power plant. The largest steam power plant in Indonesia is in Paiton, Probolinggo, East Java, which is the object of this research. In its operation, the generator in this generator experiences dynamics as electricity load changes. This study discusses the analysis of the performance of synchronous generators to changes in electrical load. The analysis includes the voltage, active power, reactive power, power factor, and generator efficiency variables. The results showed that the generator performance remained good despite serving a very dynamic electricity load.
