The use of a frequency converter for the activation of a stand-by diesel generator of a ship’s powerplant
Journal: Computational Problems of Electrical Engineering
Year: 2019

The paper considers the ways of accelerating the activation of a ship's stand-by diesel generator by using advantages of a vector controlled frequency converter during the activation for obtaining additional power reserve in ship's automated electrical powerplants. The activation of the stand-by generator and putting it into operation can often be needed for startup of ship’s powerfull consumer, in the cases of failures in running equipment, accidents, in an emergency, or changes in navigation c
