Alternating Current Electric Generator Machine Inverters in a Parallel Power Sharing Connection

Abstract

This paper covers the theoretical background as well as chosen selected experimental results obtained for two AC current generators connected to voltage source inverters working in parallel. Inverters were connected in parallel via their intermediate direct current circuits by means of auctioneering diodes which select higher voltage source, and then directly to a DC power network. The selected real-time control algorithm for a digital signal processor and a field programmable gate array was used to achieve the proper excitation of two different types of alternators: a squirrel-cage generator denoted as and a self-excited synchronous generator. Another task for the excitation system was to maintain the proper level of direct current link voltage and stable power distribution between both generators rotating at changing speeds. The windings of alternators were fed with the use of so-called machine side inverters. The asynchronous generator was a voltage source inverter driven with the use of a sensorless multiscalar algorithm based on the current machine model, whereas the self-excited synchronous generator worked on the field oriented control principle. To prove the robustness of the chosen algorithm, different types of load were applied while during the parallel work of the generators and inverters.

The Use of Acoustic Emission to Diagnosis of Fuel Injection Pumps of Marine Diesel Engines

“…An effective onboard management system can minimize and significantly reduce the risk of engine break-down caused by the failure of FIP elements due to jammed/sticking fuel/VIT racks and/or a seized B-P precision pair if it is implemented and followed at all times. Proactive countermeasures mentioned in this article can help to avoid operational problems with the FIP and to minimize delays in commercial operations and additional costs due to the unavailability of M/E, but cannot solve them completely, especially due to the limitation of establishing the prioritization of FIP overhauling as per the maintenance schedule [20][21][22][23]. The unit of PSD is energy per frequency (width), and it obtains energy within a specific frequency range by integrating PSD within that frequency range.…”

Design Build an Off Grid Based Solar Power Plant System Using The Bidirectional Buck And Boost Topology In The Conservation Of Sea Pearl Turtles

“…Inverters play an important role in PLTS because the current produced by PV modules is direct current (DC) while the current used in electrical equipment and electrical networks in general is in the form of alternating current (AC) [15] The output of an inverter can be an AC voltage by forming a sine wave, square wave and sine wave modified. To convert the voltage from DC to AC voltage the inverter requires a multivibrator [16].…”

Control Method of Load Sharing between AC Machine and Energy Storage Bank in the DC Grid

“…This kind of solution allows for the control of individual sources feeding consumers, by ensuring an appropriate power-distribution algorithm. The paper presents theoretical assumptions and experimental results of an original power-distribution system consisting of a variable-speed rotating synchronous alternator, a battery with a bidirectional DC-DC converter, and a super-capacitor bank switched with the battery pack improved over a similar system presented in [4,9]. The batteries and supercapacitors provide a buffer to store excess energy and deliver it back to the system when needed to keep the operational parameters at an optimal level.…”
