The performance of the double salient electromagnetic generator (DSEG) system is improved by replacing diode rectifiers with active rectifiers. However, the fault rate of power switches is higher than that of diodes. Thus, diagnosing faults in active rectifiers is necessary. This article proposes a fault diagnosis method for power switch open-circuit faults of active rectifiers in DSEG systems. Fi...Show More
The brushless synchronous starter-generator (BSSG) consists of a coaxially connected main exciter (ME) and main machine (MM), of which ME has two excitation modes (ac excitation mode and dc excitation mode). However, most of the existing rotor position estimation methods are suitable for only one of the excitation methods, and there are often situations where signal injection is required or depend...Show More
