Abstract
This study introduces a novel methodology for estimating the parameters of implantable hydroelectric asynchronous generators, combining field simulations with a modified standard measurements approach. The research focuses on developing a reliable yet straightforward technique for determining the constant parameters essential for the optimal functioning of these generators. The proposed method is tailored specifically to the unique requirements of implantable hydroelectric generators and is primarily based on specialized testing conducted during various stages of the generator's operation cycle. Initially, the approach involves an independent assessment of the stator inductor's field in these generators. Subsequently, all remaining constant parameters are estimated using stationary tests, specifically designed for the unique operational environment of implantable generators. To validate the effectiveness of this methodology, comprehensive field simulations are conducted.
