Kaustav Chatterjee, Meghana Ramesh, Shuchismita Biswas, Brett A. Ross, Antos C. Varghese, Sameer Nekkalapu, et al.

Large AI data center loads can introduce persistent sub-synchronous active-power oscillations that may impact nearby generators by exciting torsional modes and increasing shaft stress. This paper presents a model-based framework for evaluating hydro-generator shaft fatigue risk u…Read more
