Abstract

Multiphase generator-conversion systems and clusters are disclosed. The multiphase generator-conversion systems include a multiphase n-stator generator, n conversion lines and a transformer module. Each n conversion line is coupled to the plurality of phase lines of one of the n stators, respectively. Each conversion line comprises a rectification module, coupled to the respective plurality of phase lines, configured to receive a multiphase AC voltage and generate a first DC voltage at an output. A dc/ac inverter is coupled to the output of the respective rectification module. The dc/ac inverter receives the first dc voltage and generates a single-phase AC voltage at an output. The transformer module is arranged to receive the n single-phases of the dc/ac inverters and generate an n-phase AC voltage at an output. This voltage is input to a single diode rectifier. Multiphase generator-conversion clusters include multiphase generator-conversion systems arranged to be coupled to a diode rectifier.
