Abstract

The educational system is presently undergoing a substantial change to improve the teaching-learning process of all engineering domains. This includes the utilization of user-friendly simulation tools as part of the laboratory for an enhanced practical experience on a virtual platform. Owing to the advantages of virtual experimentation, engineering laboratories are now preferably integrated with suitable simulation tools. This paper deals with the integration of simulation tools with undergraduate courses of electrical machinery. For this purpose, a simulation model was developed to conduct the slip test on a three phase synchronous machine on a virtual platform using MATLAB or Simulink for the determination of direct axis reactance Xd and quadrature axis reactance Xq . From the test results, a close relationship between the calculated value of synchronous reactance and rated parameters of the machine is observed, showing the acceptability and suitability of conducted test for the integration of virtual platform with laboratory session. Concept of virtual laboratory may be extended to undergraduate course of electrical machinery during teaching-learning process.
