Static Kramer System
Instead of wasting the slip power in the rotor circuit resistance, a better
approach is to convert it to ac line power and return it back to the line. Two
types of converter provide this approach:
At synchronous speed (s=0) the power factor is the lowest and increases
as slip increases. The PF can be improved close to synchronous speed
by using a step-down transformer. The inverter line current is reduced
by the transformer turns ratio -> reduced PF.
