Impedance computation - Cst

Overview

The aim of this section is to compute the inter bar and inter pole impedance of the damper circuit end rings.

Constant computation mode

When constant computation mode is set, the inter-bar and inter pole end-ring resistance and inductance values must be set by the user. The values are given for a reference temperature. In this case the inter bar end ring resistances and inductances are always a function of temperature (function depending on the material of the end-ring). Once again, the inter bar impedance can only take an average value, even if bars are not evenly distributed.
