Abstract

See full text

An arrangement and method for controlling a microturbine. Back-to-back inverters are provided such that a second inverter provides power to the DC bus prior to achieving self-sustaining operation of the turbine, and a first converter provides power to the DC bus and optionally controls its voltage once the turbine is self-sustaining. The second inverter operates in either AC utility voltage and frequency control mode or output current control mode depending upon the needs of the application.
