Abstract:
1. An agricultural harvester, comprising: a first power unit couplable with a first primary load, said first primary load including a threshing system load; a first temperature sensor associated with said first power unit, said first temperature sensor providing a first output signal; a second power unit; a second temperature sensor associated with said second power unit, said second temperature sensor providing a second output signal; a first motor/generator mechanically coupled with said first power unit; a second motor/generator mechanically coupled with said second power unit, said second motor/generator and said first motor/generator being electrically coupled together; and at least one electrical processing circuit coupled with said first temperature sensor, said second temperature sensor, said first motor/generator and said second motor/generator, said at least one electrical processing circuit being configured for selective bidirectional transfer of electrical power between said first motor/generator and said second motor/generator, dependent on said first output signal and said second output signal.
