Abstract

A power supply system for developing electrical power from variable-speed motive power produced by a prime mover includes a differential speed summer having a first shaft coupled to the prime mover and further having second and third shafts coupled to first and second generators, respectively, a power conditioner coupled to the second generator for conditioning the power developed thereby and means for regulating the conditioned power developed by the second generator so that the first generator develops constant-frequency AC power.
