Operating Sequence in Hybrid System

In a conventional diesel-powered system the generator has capacity of running the load and recharging battery. To ensure a reasonable recharge time, the generator must be sized much greater than the load. But most of the time the generator is just powering the load, running between 30% and 60...

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator

In a permanent magnet generator, the magnetic field of rotor is produced by permanent magnets. Permanent magnet generators do not require DC supply for the excitation circuit. They do not contact brushes and slip rings. In permanent magnet alternators, speed is directly proportional to voltage of the alternator. Synchronous generators form...

Permanent Magnet Generator (PMG) Exciter

The Permanent Magnet Generator supplies more power than others for starting motor functions. The generator performs to sustain main field excitation for coordination and short circuit fault discrimination, and so provides greater immunity from loads of non-linear format. In application, the PMG alternator features as a brushless exciter for first...
