Abstract

An electrical generator system for a vehicle comprises a power plant having a fluid cooling system, an alternating current generator mechanically coupled to the power plant, a generator control coupled to receive electrical input from the alternating current generator, and an engine speed control configured to receive a control signal from the generator control and to provide an input to the power plant to control speed of the power plant. The fluid cooling system can be configured to cool the alternating current generator. In one example, the generator can be used to electrically power a motor that can be used to mechanically power a liquid pump and an air blower. In one example, the fluid cooling system can be used to cool the generator and the motor, and heat liquid pumped by the liquid pump. In one example, the heated liquid can be used in conjunction with a carpet cleaning tool that utilizes a vacuum generated by the air blower.
