Title: Denis Hadley Dalby: Inventor in Generator Excitation Control

Introduction

Denis Hadley Dalby is an inventor associated with Oakham, Great Britain, and Cummins Generator Technologies Limited. His patent work addresses excitation control for synchronous generators, with a focus on supporting generator performance under demanding operating conditions.

Latest Patents

Dalby is credited with 1 patent: “Method and Apparatus for Controlling Excitation.” The invention describes circuitry for a synchronous generator comprising a main machine and an exciter. An automatic voltage regulator controls power flow from the main machine to the exciter, while an excitation boost system can selectively supply power from a second electrical source. This additional excitation can help the generator operate during overload conditions. The design also offers a way to upgrade an existing synchronous generator with enhanced overload performance.

Career Highlights

Dalby’s documented patent contribution concerns generator excitation technology at Cummins Generator Technologies Limited. The invention combines voltage regulation with a supplementary power source to provide a flexible approach to excitation control.

Collaborations

The supplied information lists Neil Brown and Nigel Jakeman as Dalby’s coworkers. Their names are associated with his professional context, though specific roles in the patent are not provided.

Conclusion

Denis Hadley Dalby’s patent presents a practical approach to improving synchronous-generator excitation and overload capability through an optional boost system.
