High Speed Induction Generator

Under development for U.S. Air Force WPAFB, this is a 200 kW, 62,000 RPM generator using induction technology to provide a compact, efficient generator system for stable and safe operation.

The controller design is based on field orientation for fast response to transient load changes.  The DSP-based control system is flexible and optimizes the generator performance.  Electric start function is available.

Generator and controller have been tested up to a 65 kW load, and 45,000 RPM speed.
