  • Calibrated slip direct current (D C) machine
    Patent number: 10615657
    Abstract: A DC machine for connection to an electrical system may include a stator configured as a portion of the DC machine; a rotor configured as a portion of the DC machine being rotatable with respect to the stator; and a control circuit to control the rotor to allow the rotor to continuously slip with respect to the stator.
    Type: Grant

  • Power Generation
    Publication number: 20100038907
    Abstract: In one aspect, power generation is accomplished by capturing off-gas from a wellhead of an oil producing well, sensing a change in pressure from which a change in available off-gas can be determined, and adjusting a torque supplied by a prime mover to a generator responsive to the change in available off-gas to vary an amount of electricity generated by the generator.
