Electricity: single generator systems inventions 02/09

20090051332 - System and method for electric current and power monitoring and control of a generator: A control device measures a voltage drop across a conductor in a generator to determine and control the total generator output current. A temperature of the conductor is also measured to improve the accuracy. The control device may further improve on the accuracy by compensating for the electrical current through...

20090045782 - Power conversion system: A power conversion system includes two three-level converters, and a phase shifted transformer coupled to the converters.... Agent: General Electric Company Global Research

20090045783 - Power manager for an electrical power generator: An electrical power generator includes a controller for making a full power capacity of the generator available for consumption by at least one intelligent load coupled to an output of the generator. The controller obtains data from which both a present output power of the generator and a power capacity... Agent: Kinney & Lange, P.A.

20090045784 - A novel aircraft engine starter/generator: A rotor resistor and switch combination may cause a starter/generator device to function as an asynchronous device when in a start mode. Thus, starting torque may result. A starter/generator device may include an exciter rotor winding, a main rotor winding, and a resistor and switch combination positioned between the exciter...
