applications <strong>an</strong>d possible use as starter/alternator in four-wheel drive vehicles. In<br />

applications where only one dc output is required, the voltages <strong>of</strong> the two <strong>stator</strong> <strong>winding</strong>s<br />

are processed with two ac-dc PWM boost rectifiers <strong>an</strong>d connected in parallel to increase<br />

output current or to improve the system reliability. This is the subject <strong>of</strong> this chapter.<br />

However, two PWM rectifiers c<strong>an</strong> also be series-connected to increase the output dc<br />

voltage or in applications where two or three different dc voltage levels are required.<br />

Generating system with series-connected PWM rectifiers will be discussed in the next<br />

chapter. The efficiency <strong>of</strong> this machine is not as high as that <strong>of</strong> the perm<strong>an</strong>ent magnet<br />

generator, however the opportunity to share the output power between two separate<br />

<strong>winding</strong> sets c<strong>an</strong> improve overall efficiency, giving it a unique adv<strong>an</strong>tage. The system<br />

diagrams for both the parallel <strong>an</strong>d series connections are shown in Figure 8.1.<br />

This chapter explores the generating mode <strong>of</strong> operation <strong>of</strong> this new machine in the<br />

process <strong>of</strong> which the phenomenon <strong>of</strong> the steady-state converter excitation is explored.<br />

With the aid <strong>of</strong> the input-output linearization technique which enables the linearization<br />

<strong>an</strong>d decoupling <strong>of</strong> the model equations in the synchronous reference frame, the control<br />

scheme for the dc voltage regulation with the potential <strong>of</strong> minimizing the total copper<br />

loss is set forth. Computer simulation results <strong>an</strong>d experimental waveforms are presented<br />

to demonstrate the effectiveness <strong>of</strong> the control scheme as also the influence <strong>of</strong> the<br />

dynamic distribution <strong>of</strong> the input mech<strong>an</strong>ical power between the two <strong>stator</strong> <strong>winding</strong> sets.<br />

8.2 System Model<br />

The <strong>dual</strong> <strong>stator</strong> <strong>winding</strong> <strong>induction</strong> generation system for parallel connected output ac-<br />

dc PWM rectifiers is shown in Figure 8.1.<br />
