  • Electrical machine and controller and methods of assembling the same
    Patent number: 9985494
    Abstract: A fluid circulating assembly includes an electrical machine having a rotor assembly, a stator assembly, and a housing. The housing includes an annular center section and at least two extension portions extending radially outward from the annular center section of the housing. The fluid circulating assembly also includes a controller assembly coupled to the housing. The said controller assembly is positioned radially outward from the stator assembly and located in at least one of the at least two extension portions.
    Type: Grant

  • Methods and voltage regulator for power distribution in a hybrid system
    Patent number: 9548693
    Abstract: Methods and a voltage regulator are provided for distributing power sourcing in a hybrid power plant system. The voltage regulator is configured to monitor an output power of a generator and control an excitation signal provided to the generator based at least in part on the generator output power.
    Type: Grant

  • Switch-mode power supply with a dual primary transformer
    Patent number: 9537350
    Abstract: A switch-mode power supply that includes a transformer coupled to an alternating current (AC) power source and a direct current (DC) power source, wherein the AC power source is electrically isolated from the DC power source. The switch-mode power supply further includes a first controller configured to regulate a first voltage output from the AC power source, and a second controller configured to regulate a second voltage output from the DC power source when the transformer is not receiving power from the AC output.

  • Voltage regulator and methods for simulating reactive power in parallel power generation systems
    Patent number: 9484850
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and a voltage regulator are provided for tuning reactive droop compensation of a generator in a parallel power generation system. The voltage regulator is configured to compute a simulated droop compensation voltage for the generator and control an excitation signal to the generator based at least in part on the simulated droop compensation voltage.
