  • Patent number: 10063054
    Abstract: An arrangement for power management in an energy distribution system, a method for power management in an energy distribution system and an arrangement for implementing the method for power management in the energy distribution system, wherein a feed/return unit and a control unit are provided, where the control unit is configured to sense a present actual system state and to take the sensed actual system state as a basis for prompting energy output or energy intake (energy out/intake, energy feed/return) by the feed/return unit in order to allow continuous correction and dynamic support of an energy distribution system or in an energy distribution system.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 13, 2013
    Date of Patent: August 28, 2018
    Assignee: Siemens Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Günter Heid, Peter Michael Holzapfel, Thomas Pflugfelder
  • Patent number: 9698698
    Abstract: A circuit arrangement for igniting thin rods composed of electrically conductive material at are thin silicon rods, wherein a three-phase AC system forming a three-phase system is used to feed electrical energy to the thin rods, wherein the three-phase AC system forms the three-phase system or a three-phase transformer having a secondary-side three-phase winding system forms the three-phase system, and wherein the three phases of the three-phase system or of the secondary-side three-phase winding system are interconnected or controlled such that voltages comprising voltage vectors of the three phases cancel one another out in a three-phase closed vector triangle system.
