  2. Load bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_bank

    A resistive load bank impacts upon all aspects of a generating system. An operator controlling a resistive 200kW load bank being used to test a diesel generator. The load of a resistive load bank is created by the conversion of electrical energy to heat via high-power resistors such as grid resistors. This heat must be dissipated from the load ...

    Hydrogen-cooled turbo generator's cooling can be improved by increasing the hydrogen pressure, larger generators, from 300 MVA, use more efficient water cooling. [3] Capability curve of a synchronous generator with minimum load. The practical D-curve of a typical synchronous generator has one more limitation, minimum load. The minimum real ...

  5. Electric generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

    A generator using permanent magnets (PMs) is sometimes called a magneto, or a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). Armature: The power-producing component of an electrical machine. In a generator, alternator, or dynamo, the armature windings generate the electric current, which provides power to an external circuit.

  6. Marx generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marx_generator

    A Marx generator is an electrical circuit first described by Erwin Otto Marx in 1924. [1] Its purpose is to generate a high-voltage pulse from a low-voltage DC supply. Marx generators are used in high-energy physics experiments, as well as to simulate the effects of lightning on power-line gear and aviation equipment.

    Equal Load Division between generators; Tripping of non-essential load groups (load shedding in two steps) Blocking of heavy consumers; Operation of second generator in case first generator will be loaded 80% of its capacity; Operation of standby generator, in case of malfunction in any one of the two generators

  8. Diesel rotary uninterruptible power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_rotary...

    Most forms of uninterruptible power supply (UPS) can be either powered by battery or flywheel energy. These are ready for immediate use at the instant that the mains electricity fails, but the relatively small and finite amount of stored energy they contain makes them suitable for short periods of use, typically in the order of a few dozen minutes to a couple of hours depending on the actual load.

  9. Droop speed control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Droop_speed_control

    Droop speed control is a control mode used for AC electrical power generators, whereby the power output of a generator reduces as the line frequency increases. It is commonly used as the speed control mode of the governor of a prime mover driving a synchronous generator connected to an electrical grid. It works by controlling the rate of power ...
