Marcian N. Cirstea, Jeen Ghee Khor, M. McCormick · 2002
The research work carried out in the area of design, simulation and implementation of a fuzzy logic controller for a diesel-driven stand alone synchronous generator system is presented. The controller was developed using Very High Speed Integrated Circuit Hardware Description Language (VHDL) and is implemented in a field programmable gate array (FPGA). The advantages of the proposed system, consisting of diesel engine, synchronous generator, power converter and fuzzy controller, are underlined. The experimental results proved the correct operation of the system.
