Abstract: A variable frequency generator (VFG) may include a housing, a shaft, a rotor, and a stator with slots. The VFG also includes a first set of stator windings including a first subset of windings and a second subset of windings and a second set of stator windings including a first subset of windings and a second subset of windings. The windings of the first subset of the first set of stator windings are co-located with the windings of the first subset of the second set of stator windings so as to share a common slot of the plurality of slots of the stator. Further, the windings of the second subset of the first set of stator windings are co-located with the windings of the second subset of the second set of stator windings so as to share a common alternative slot of the plurality of slots of the stator.

Abstract: A variable speed constant frequency electric voltage regulation circuit may include a slow voltage loop detecting and adjust an amplitude of an output signal of the circuit. A fast voltage loop of the circuit may include an error amplifier detecting a difference between a reference sine wave signal and the output signal. A current control loop may include a current controller and an inverter. A first switch may toggle a gain of the circuit between a gain associated with a normal mode and a gain associated with a power transfer mode based on a power transfer command signal. A second switch may toggle control between the current control loop in the power transfer mode and the fast and slow voltage loops in the normal mode. The sample/hold circuit eliminates the slow voltage loop from regulating the output during the power transfer.
