Say, there are 4 machines not connected to grid. The four machines all worked in "isochronous load sharing mode" with the PMS and other controllers. What stops the governor from fighting one another in this mode?
It seems all the machines talk to each other as to who will respond to the system variations and when?, but how this is accomplished?
Why is a master controller and a separate controller(for each machine) needed for the "isochronous load sharing mode"? Is PMS alone insufficient?
What makes this mode better than "Droop speed control" with PMS?. The "Isochronous load sharing" seems similar to all the 4 machines operating in Droop mode with PMS control - adjusting the fuel input to increase/decrease load and thereby controlling the frequency but I cannot consolidate the summary and the benefits of "isochronous load sharing" over "droop speed control" in my head.
