Abstract

Method for monitoring the distribution of power in a hybrid propulsion system comprising one or more electrical sources delivering an AC voltage, each of which is associated with an AC-to-DC controlled rectifier and one or more batteries, wherein, the AC-to-DC controlled rectifier and the battery each being connected directly to an HVDC bus supplying one or more electrical loads with power, the monitoring of the distribution of power is performed through the individual AC-to-DC controlled rectifier by a feedback loop to a power setpoint (Pref) on the basis of a measured power of the battery (Pbat) and a feedback loop to a voltage setpoint (Vref) on the basis of a measured voltage of the HVDC bus (VHVDC), either one of these two feedback loops delivering an RMS current setpoint Idref and Iqref for a feedback loop on the basis of a current (Igen) of the electrical source delivering an AC voltage.
