Abstract
A power generation system is provided that includes an internal combustion engine configured to provide rotational mechanical energy. A generator is configured to receive the rotational mechanical energy and generate electrical power in response to the rotational mechanical energy. A fluid medium is provided to the internal combustion engine and to the generator for removing thermal energy from the internal combustion engine and from the generator.
Claims18
1-20. (canceled)
A method for generating power, comprising:
- providing a generator system comprising a generator having a power output connector;
- coupling the power output connector to a first power application, the first power application comprising a first power demand;
- activating the generator to provide a first power component to meet the first power demand;
- monitoring the first power demand of the first power application;
- receiving an indication that the first power demand has changed to a second power demand different from the first power demand;
- and
- notifying the generator system of the indication.
4 more elements
A power generation system, comprising:
- a generator;
- and
- a power electronics device coupled to the generator and comprising first and second power output connectors, the first power output connector configured to be coupled to a first power application, and the second power output connector configured to be coupled to a second power application, the first power application being different from the second power application.
