Abstract: The invention relates to a protection system of a doubly-fed induction machine, wherein the system comprises a crowbar connected to the rotor, one DC-chopper provided in the DC-link, a converter controller and a separate protection device, which controls the DC-chopper and the crowbar. In order to protect the DC-chopper against excessive heat, the protection device counts the firing pulses of the DC-chopper or measures the operating time of DC-chopper, wherein the minimum switch-off time of the DC-chopper depends on the number of firing pulses or the amount of operating time in a previous operating cycle of the DC-chopper. The converter controller estimates a rotor current by using a machine model of the doubly-fed induction machine and measured values of the stator voltage, the stator current and the angle between stator and rotor voltage. The doubly-fed induction machine is switched off from the grid by the converter controller if a critical crowbar current is determined.

Inventor: PASHKIN SERGEY VASILJEVICH
IPC: C10B53/00
Filed: 2009-12-28
Abstract: The invention relates to alternative power engineering, more specifically to methods and devices for processing organic waste into thermal and electrical energy, liquid, solid and gaseous energy carriers and into other useful chemical products. The method differs from a known method for the pyrolysis processing of organic waste through air-free thermal heating in that the thermal heating is carried out in an aqueous medium at pressures in the medium that are greater than the pressure of saturated water vapour at the highest pyrolysis temperature. As a result, humid and liquid organic waste can be processed into combustible energy carriers without pre-drying, and the heat energy produced when the pyrolysis products are burned can be used both for maintaining the organic waste processing process and for producing commercial heat and electrical energy.
