Dynamic frequency to voltage ratio for regulator machine

A voltage regulator for a generator having a dynamic voltage-to-frequency (V/F) ratio, the voltage regulator comprising:

• a memory configured to store a plurality of voltage-frequency curves for the generator;
• a voltage calculator configured to receive data indicative of an output of the generator and configured to determine a resistance value from the output of the generator and a voltage value from the output of the generator;
• and
• a selection module configured to select a voltage-frequency curve from the plurality of voltage-frequency curves in response to the resistance value and configured to select a voltage-frequency ratio from the selected voltage-frequency curve in response to the voltage value,
• wherein an output adjustment for the generator in response to the selected voltage-frequency ratio.
