I can't understand the whole process of using the field current in the generator to control the reactive power supplied by the generator to the system. In my reference, it says:
"The first constraint on the generator is that the power must remain constant when IF is changed."
But I don't understand how that is possible since the power into a generator (ignoring losses) is given by the equation:
P = Tind * Ï
And the torque is give by this:
Tind = k(Br x Bnet)
Being a cross product.
k = constant
Br = magnetic flux density of rotor
Bnet = net magnetic flux density.
Since we are increasing the field current, thus increasing the torque induced. Aren't we increasing the power?
