Power generator system, power generator control device, and power-generation balance control method for power generator system

A power-generation balance control method for a generator system, for equalizing a power-generation balance between a first generator and a second generator in the generator system,

• the generator system comprising:
• a first generator control device comprising a first PWM signal generation part configured to generate a first PWM signal, the first generator control device being configured to control, based on the first PWM signal, a first field current to be supplied to a field coil of the first generator;
• and
• a second generator control device comprising a second PWM signal generation part configured to generate a second PWM signal, the second generator control device being configured to control, based on the second PWM signal, a second field current to be supplied to a field coil of the second generator,
• the power-generation balance control method comprising:
• a duty restriction processing step of using, by the first generator control device, a duty lower limit value that is more than 0% and a duty upper limit value that is less than 100% to perform, every X cycles, duty restriction processing on the first PWM signal generated by the first PWM signal generation part in continuous Y cycles out of the X cycles, and transmitting the first PWM signal after the restriction processing to the second generator control device;
• and
• a signal output control step of receiving, by the second generator control device, the first PWM signal after the restriction processing transmitted from the first generator control device in the duty restriction processing step as a received PWM signal, determining that a reception abnormality exists when the received PWM signal is received continuously in (X−Y+1) cycles as a signal representing a duty less than the duty lower limit value or a duty more than the duty upper limit value, controlling the second field current based on the second PWM signal generated by the second PWM signal generation part in a cycle in which the reception abnormality is determined to exist, and controlling the second field current based on the received PWM signal in a cycle in which the reception abnormality is not determined to exist,
• wherein X and Y are integers satisfying X>Y>0.
