ISLANDING DETECTION METHOD BASED ON TORQUE OSCILLATIONS OF INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES

摘要

An assembly for detecting a grid condition according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, a controller that determines an electrical variation of an electrical parameter, the electrical variation relating to a mechanical torque oscillation of a power generation device, and determines that the power generation device should be disconnected from the power grid if the electrical variation meets a preselected criterion. A method of detecting a grid event is also disclosed.
