Abstract
The invention relates to a method for operating a power generating device (2) comprising an internal combustion engine, in particular a gas motor or a gas turbine, and an energy accumulator. Said internal combustion engine and the energy accumulator are electrically coupled together. Said internal combustion engine (16) can be operated in accordance with a first estimated value and in accordance with a second estimated value.
Claims10
Method for operating a power generating device comprising a combustion engine and an energy accumulator which are electrically coupled to one another, comprising the steps of determining a turn-off start time point for the combustion engine on the basis of an actual power (Pq) of the combustion engine and on the basis of a state of charge (SOC) of the energy accumulator, and starting a turn-off process of the internal combustion engine at the turn-off start time point.
A computer program product for a digital arithmetic unit for use in operating a power generating device comprising an combustion engine and an energy accumulator which are electrically coupled to one another, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, wherein the computer readable storage medium is not a transitory signal, the program instructions are readable by a computer to cause the computer to perform a method comprising:
- determining a turn-off start time point for the combustion engine on the basis of an actual power (Pq) of the combustion engine and on the basis of a state of charge (SOC) of the energy accumulator, and starting a turn-off process of the internal combustion engine at the turn-off start time point.
Control unit for operating a power generating device comprising an combustion engine and an energy accumulator which unit is provided with a digital arithmetic unit, in particular a microprocessor, on which a computer program can run, the computer program comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, wherein the computer readable storage medium is not a transitory signal, the program instructions are readable by a computer to cause the computer to perform a method comprising:
- determining a turn-off start time point for the combustion engine on the basis of an actual power (Pq) of the combustion engine and on the basis of a state of charge (SOC) of the energy accumulator, and starting a turn-off process of the internal combustion engine at the turn-off start time point.
Power generating device comprising an combustion engine, in particular a gas motor or a gas turbine, and an energy accumulator, which are electrically coupled to one another, the power generating device adapted to determine a turn-off start time point for the combustion engine on the basis of an actual power (Pq) of the combustion engine and on the basis of a state of charge (SOC) of the energy accumulator, and starting a turn-off process of the combustion engine at the turn-off start time point.
