    摘要: An electric power generation system and a method in an electric power generation system. The system comprising one or more generators for producing electrical energy, each generator being arranged to be driven with a corresponding prime mover, wherein the generators are multiphase AC generators adapted to generate a multiphase voltage having a frequency and an amplitude, the phase outputs of the generators are connectable to a common multiphase bus for distributing the electrical energy generated by the AC generators, the system comprises further means for providing independent reference values for a rotational speed of the prime movers and for amplitude of the multiphase voltage, the rotational speed of the prime movers defining the frequency of the multiphase voltage, and the system is adapted to operate in at least three operation points on the basis of the provided independent reference values, an operation point being defined by a ratio of the amplitude of the multiphase voltage to the frequency of the multiphase voltage, wherein the at least three operation points are different.

    摘要: A method for preventing a frequency component of a voltage from occurring in an electrical machine including the steps of: obtaining, either by measuring a voltage signal or a current signal from the electrical machine in time domain and transforming the measured signal into frequency domain, by simulating or deducing a first frequency component present in the electrical machine in absence of a grounding, the first frequency component representing a first undesired frequency higher than a limit frequency of 500 Hz; and providing the electrical machine with a first grounding at a grounding location, the first grounding including a resonant circuit resonating at the first undesired frequency. In order to get rid of harmful shaft voltages in the form of sharp voltage peaks at high frequencies, it is first necessary to determine at which undesired frequency or frequencies these voltage peaks occur. Only thereafter can a low impedance grounding be provided that works satisfactorily at the undesired frequency or frequencies.
