Rotary induction generator process of generating electrical energy and process of limiting the load in the generation of electrical energy with rotary induction generators

摘要

A rotary induction generator having a stator with stator windings (21) defining a three-phase stator and a rotor mounted for rotation therein and having wound thereon three rotor windings (22) defining a three-phase rotor and having resistive-reactive means (23, 24, 26) connected to said secondary windings (22) to increase the efficiency of said generator and limit the power output to the capacity of the generator over a wide range of speeds; and the method for load limiting electric power generation with rotary induction generators wherein the generator can run at variable speeds while maintaining the frequency of the line connected thereto over a wide range of prime mover speeds whereby the excess kilowatt output is limited by the circuit employing a first circuit of three sets of resistance, inductance and capacitance means (23, 24, 26) connected in series from each leg of a wye or delta configuration, and wherein each of said sets is connected in parallel with a separate set of resistors (27) to complete the circuit therein and assist in controlling the maximum point in kilowatts.
