Abstract:
Electrical power generation systems typically comprise an electrical power distribution arrangement in which a number of electrical power generators are coupled in parallel. In such circumstances in order to avoid conflict generally a first electrical power generator is controlled with a voltage controller while second electrical power generators have electrical current controllers. As loads are switched into and out of the electrical distribution system in normal operation the first electrical power generator and its voltage controller can accommodate voltage dynamics and therefore maintain a desired voltage. However, in order to accommodate heavier loads switching, the dynamic operation of the electrical current controller is achieved through utilizing operational voltage margins from a desired voltage as control signals to the electrical current controller. A threshold is provided above which the electrical voltage margin must operate and regimes are provided to determine continued increase or fall in the operational voltage to allow continued dynamic control of the electrical current in order that voltage stability can be re-established with regard to electrical power distribution arrangements.
