What Is a Shunt Generator?

In parallel operation, generally important power stations (especially ship power stations) have more than two synchronous generators as the main power source. When more than two generators supply power to the power grid at the same time, it is the process of generating units in parallel and putting the units into parallel operation. Also known as input parallel, or parallel, full step.

Parallel operation

Right!

In parallel operation, generally important power stations (especially ship power stations) have more than two synchronous generators as the main power source. When more than two generators supply power to the power grid at the same time, it is the process of generating units in parallel and putting the units into parallel operation. Also known as input parallel, or parallel, full step.

The parallel operation of power generation has the following advantages:

1. Considering that the generator has the highest efficiency under the rated load. The use of two or more generators can change the operation mode according to the load, so that the generator is often in the best operating state.

2. Maintain the continuity and reliability of grid power supply.

Ideal paralleling conditions: the effective values of the voltages are the same, the phases of the voltages are the same, the frequencies of the voltages are the same, and the phase sequences of the voltages are the same.
