Abstract:
An agricultural vehicle including a plurality of engines, a plurality of loads, a plurality of electrical generators, at least one load sensor, at least one electrical energy storage device, and a controller. The plurality of engines include a first engine and a second engine. The plurality of loads include a first mechanical load, a second mechanical load, a first electrical load, and a second electrical load. The first mechanical load is coupled to the first engine and the second mechanical load is coupled to the second engine. The plurality of electrical generator include a first generator and a second generator. The first generator is coupled to the first engine and the second generator is coupled to the second engine. The first generator is electrically coupled to the first electrical load and the second generator is electrically coupled to the second electrical load. The at least one load sensor is configured to produce a signal representative of power being used by the first engine and the second engine to drive the plurality of loads. The controller is configured to direct energy from the electrical energy storage device to the plurality of loads and/or the plurality of electrical generators dependent upon the signal.
