This paper presents a high efficient generator with PM(Permanent Magnet) exciter. The proposed PM exciter for the generator can produce a linear output voltage according to the engine speed. This output voltage is directly used to control the field current of the generator to adjust the generator output voltage. In the proposed generator system, since the field winding current can be supplied by the PM exciter, the generator can self-start without any battery or an external power supply due to the low residential flux. Furthermore, the operating efficiency of the generator is higher than a conventional winding exciter. The main problem of the proposed generator system, the field winding current controller has to be embedded inside the generator, and it rotates according to the generator shaft. In this paper, the proper embedded current controller is designed for the proposed generator system. Due to the embedded controller cannot be connected to the outside the generator controller, the measured instantaneous output voltage of the generator is transferred by the photo isolated communication using shaft aligned infrared transmitter and receiver to keep the constant generator output voltage. In this paper, 10kW, 380V engine generator with PM exciter and the embedded DAVR(Digital Automatic Voltage Regulator) are described. The proposed high efficiency generator is simulated and tested to verify the effectiveness.

This paper presents the design and implementation of a 5kW programmable three-phase harmonic generator, which is capable of generating sinusoidal output voltages with adjustable output amplitude and frequency over a wide range as well as arbitrary waveforms. The considered harmonic generator is a linear power amplifier type. This system consists mainly of a power converter to generate and amplify waveform signals, a controller to control the desired output signal and measure the output parameters including voltage and current, and a control program to set the desired output and display the output values. The prototype programmable three-phase harmonic generator has been constructed and tested. Test results show that the developed programmable three-phase harmonic generator performs well.

A brush-less type synchronous generator is driven by an internal-combustion engine that is used for emergency source. This kind of generator has to maintain output voltage in a range of some degree under the abrupt load irregular conditions such as a full load trip. This paper suggests a suppression method of increasing the output voltage over the rating. Automatic voltage regulator detects excessive rising of output voltage of the generator and supplies the signals to a switch installed in the rotating exciter through the photo-coupler. The current of main field rapidly decreases by additional resistor of the main filed circuit. Therefore, the output voltage of the generator is maintained effectively. The experimental results verified that the excessive value of the output voltage is limited in the range of 7% of the rated voltage.

To attain power generation with body heat, the thermal resistance matched design of the thermoelectric generator was the principal factor which was not critical in the case of thermoelectric generator for the waste heat generation. The dimension of thermoelectric legs and the number of thermoelectric leg-pairs dependent output power performances of the thermoelectric generator on the human wrist condition was simulated using 1-dimensional approximated heat flow equations with the temperature dependent material coefficients of the constituent materials and the dimension of the substrate. With the optimum thermoelectric generator design, thermoelectric generator modules were fabricated by using newly developed fabrication processes, which is mass production possible. The electrical properties and the output power characteristics of the fabricated thermoelectric modules were characterized by using a home-made test set-up. The output voltage of the designed thermoelectric generator were a few tens of millivolts and its output power was several hundreds of microwatts under the conditions at the human wrist. The measured output voltage and power of the fabricated thermoelectric generator were slightly lower than those of the designed thermoelectric generator due to several reasons.

Axial Field Permanent Magnet (AFPM) generators are widely applied for the small wind turbine because of the higher power density per unit weight than that of the conventional radial field generator. It is caused by the disc shaped rotor and the stator structures. The generally used AFPM generator, AFER-NS generator, is composed of the two side's external rotors and non-slotted stator without stator core. However, the output voltage and the output power are limited by the large reluctance by the long air-gap flux paths. In this paper, the design study of AFIR-S generator having double side's slotted stator core is accomplished to improve the output generation characteristics. The electromagnetic design analysis and the design improvement of the suggested AFIR-S generator are studied. Firstly, the electromagnetic design analysis was done to increase the power density. Secondly, the design optimizations of the rotor pole-arc ratio of permanent magnet are accomplished to increase the output power and to reduce the cogging torque. Finally, the output performances of AFER-NS and AFIR-S generator are compared with each other. For this study, 3D FEA is applied for the design analysis because of three dimensional electromagnetic structures.

For maximum output power, wind turbines are usually controlled at the speed which is determined by the optimal tip-speed ratio. This method requires information of wind speed and the power conversion coefficient which is varied by the pitch angle control. In this paper, a new maximum output power control algorithm using fuzzy logic control is proposed, which doesn't need this information. Instead, fuzzy controllers use information of the generator speed and the output power. By fuzzy rules, the fuzzy controller produces a new generator reference speed which gives the maximum output power of the generator for variable wind speeds. The proposed algorithm has been implemented for the 3[kW] cage-type induction generator system at laboratory, of which results verified the effectiveness of the algorithm.

Induction generator is used primarily in small hydroelectric power station less than 1000kW recently. Unlike the synchronous generator, induction generator produces electricity when it is rotated above synchronous speed. In this study, we calculated the parameters of the induction generator with test reports presented by the manufacturer and analyzed that how much the induction generator has produced power near the rated speed. If we can use the test data to calculate the parameters, it is possible the output characteristics analysis of the induction generator. As a result of analysis, we concluded that output of induction generator varies sensitively for small changes in rotational speed in the near synchronous speed.

A high voltage and nanosecond Blumlein pulse generator has been developed to produce an output pulse whose voltage level is greater than 250 kV and pulse duration 5 ns. The generator consists of various components such as a charging circuit, a pulse transformer, and a spark gap switch. As a heart of the generator, a Blumlein pulse forming line has been constructed in the cylindrical form using three cylindrical aluminum electrodes that are placed concentrically. Unlike the ideal Blumlein line, the output pulse of an actual Blumlein line may be affected by stray inductances and capacitances of switching and charging components, thereby degrading the performance of the generator. In this paper, PSPICE simulations have been performed to examine effects of stray inductances and capacitances on waveforms of output pulses. Simulation results show that the pulse waveform is significantly distorted mainly by the stray inductance of the spark gap switch.

Squirrel cage induction motor is the main driving system of industrial field and familiar with its use in a large variety of applications. However, many engineer are unfamiliar with the induction generator, even though no difference exists between both machines except for the mode of operation. But an induction generator is commonly used for micro & small hydro power applications due to its simplicity, reliability, low cost and robustness. Input and output of induction motor has turned against at the induction generator operation. Rotation speed of induction generator is small faster than induction motor. As output of induction machines increases with the increasement of speed, so loss is same. Actually, generator efficiency is lower than motor at this condition. If induction generator is connected with mechanical load, total efficiency is decreased. In this paper, we analyzed that input, output, torque and efficiency is different from each other above and below synchronous speed.
