I need help with this Generator excitation method please

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on a three-phase AC alternator, clarifying that T32 likely refers to slip ring terminals rather than a regulator. The current in the coils is responsible for regulating the field and the generated voltage, while G3 contributes to the rotating dipole field. P1-P2 functions as a current transformer that senses AC current from V2, indicating its role in a current limiter or protection circuit. There is uncertainty regarding the purpose of G2, and additional information is sought about the make and model of the unit, including whether it has slip rings or is brushless. Understanding these components is crucial for effective excitation method implementation.

TL;DR Summary
This generator G1 is connected to an AVR, what I don't understand is why the excitation is separately by voltage G3 and current G2.
Any explications please
Thanks

Welcome to PF.

This appears to be a three-phase AC alternator, not exactly a generator.

T32 may be the slip ring terminals, not a regulator. The current in those coils regulates the field, and so the voltage generated. G3 provides the rotating dipole field.

At the bottom, P1-P2 is a current transformer sensing the AC current from V2. That is the sensing part of a current limiter or protection circuit.

Just what G2 is for, I yet know not.

What is the make and model of the unit?
Does it have slip rings, or is it brushless, transformer coupled, like a marine unit?
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
