Digital Voltage Regulator for Aircraft Brushless Synchronous Generator

Abstract:

According to the design ideas of the traditional analog voltage regulator, hysteresis control method is adopted to regulate the output voltage of aircraft variable frequency generator. Through simulation and test, it is verified that the steady and dynamic voltage performance are in according with the MIL-STD-704E voltage requirements for the generator point of regulation (POR). The digital generator controller is capable to meet the application demand of aircraft power system.
