Hello Phil Please find the continuation to your questions: 0) ST: Yes your pre-assumption is correct. Engine expert says nothing wrong with engines. 1) PC: Were generator load-tests ever carried out using a sea-water tank? ST: Yes sir. it was done using sea water tank, and also using the...

Hello Phil Yes your pre-assumption is correct. Engine expert says nothing wrong with engines. 1) Were generator load-tests ever carried out using a sea-water tank? Yes sir. it was done using sea water tank, and also using the Loadbanks. 2) Have the generators ever worked well together? Yes...

Hello ControlsGuy25, Sir frequency is maintained on the using droop settings. (But what i have studied theoretically, it is always better to have frequency droop control for generators running in parallel rather than isochronous mode.)

Hello Phil. The figures i have provided are the reading of actual instruments. I dont have the values of excitation amperes and Volts. As of now i dont have the KVAR meter reading either. but i am sure if we use Pf=P/S we can find out the approx value of KVAr at that time. Sharing generator...

Hello Controls guy 25 Following is submitted: 1. Did you ever try to compare both Load sharing module behaviour.. "May i know how can i do it separately for individual generators. we don't have a testing facility onboard as of now." 2. Both AVRs should have same caracteristics/settings...

Hello Phil Corso, Thank you for your comments: Following is submitted I do agree sir, that we have unmatched generators are paralleled all the time (with unmatched - i mean to say KVAR sharing) but for a LONG RUN don't you think prolong unequal sharing may lead to reduction in life of the...

Thank you Controlsguy25 for an expert information. Following is submitted: Yes load sharing scheme is available with the plant, for active power sharing- we are using woodward governor (i couldn't recollect the model) but active load sharing is perfect in the plant, that implies that there is...

Hello Gregorb6 Can you please elaborate, that how does the age of ship affects the sharing of KVAR between two generators running in parallel? Let us say we have two Diesel Generators of same make and rating (1990 model, 1100KVA), both the generators have same AVR (initial settings adjusted to...
