Description
Abstract:	Asynchronous running of synchronous generators is considered during system disturbances with particular reference to shaft stresses. Such an abnormal running may lead to mechanical stresses in the turbine-generator shaft system. These stresses can lead to shaft fatigue loss of life which is evaluated by a proper fatigue model. Theoretical aspects of the parametric resonance phenomenon, which is of importance during asynchronous running, are also considered. Effect of variation of certain important parameters on asynchronous running is also described. Directions as regards the factor of safety during shaft specification have been indicated.
