Abstract
A system includes a DC to DC converter coupled with a load, a power source bus coupled with an input of the DC to DC converter, and an energy storage device. The energy storage device and an output of the DC to DC converter are coupled with a load bus, which supplies the load. The power source bus is supplied power by a generator being driven by a gas turbine. During operation, an operational temperature of the gas turbine may be received by the controller. The controller may dynamically adjust a demand output of the DC to DC converter in response to the operational temperature of the gas turbine exceeding a predetermined threshold temperature value for a predetermined period of time.
