Patent number: 10746105Abstract: A control device for a power generation system whereby power is generated by a first power source that operates by burning a fuel. The control device identifies, on the basis of a pressure difference in a prior-stage mechanism that supplies the fuel to the first power source, a fuel capacity that compensates for the pressure difference in the prior-stage mechanism. The pressure difference is the difference between a pressure set for the fuel before a load change in the prior-stage mechanism and a pressure set for the fuel after the load change in the prior-stage mechanism. The control device calculates a fuel supply command value, which is a command value for adjusting the amount of fuel supplied to a fuel supply device that supplies the fuel to the first power source, and is output to the fuel supply device using a fuel supply acceleration command value.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2014Date of Patent: August 18, 2020Assignee: MITSUBISHI HITACHI POWER SYSTEMS, LTD.Inventors: Masato Murayama, Takanori Tsutsumi, Yoshinori Koyama, Ken Tamura, Takashi Fujii

Patent number: 10254747Abstract: A device control apparatus periodically transmits a status confirmation signal to a control source device described in a cooperation control table and receives a response signal with respect to the status confirmation signal. Device control apparatus determines whether or not a status included in the response signal matches a status described in the cooperation control table. If they match, a control destination device, an operation and a control command corresponding to the operation are specified using the cooperation control table. A configuration for transmitting a control command with respect to the control destination device is provided. Therefore, even in a case where a communication protocol and the control command are different from one another in makers of devices, it is possible to realize cooperation control.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2015Date of Patent: April 9, 2019Assignee: PANASONIC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CO., LTD.Inventors: Hiromi Toyota, Masato Murayama, Yoshiyuki Inoue, Masaki Hayashi, Hiroki Nishida, Yasuo Yoshimura
