A power generation system includes an internal combustion engine, an electrical generator, and a power transmission mechanism. A method for controlling the system includes executing rotation speed control of driving the electrical generator by using electric power supplied from a battery, and matching a rotation speed of the electrical generator with a target rotation speed at the time of starting the power generation system. Output possible electric power of the battery and rotation speed of the electrical generator are acquired. A filtering process of reducing a component of a resonance frequency band of a spring-mass system including the engine, generator, and power transmission mechanism is executed on the rotation speed of the electrical generator. An upper limit torque of the electrical generator is calculated based on the filtered rotation speed and the output possible electric power. The rotation speed control is executed under a limitation of the upper limit torque.

Method and device for controlling starting of power generation system

A boost converter control method in one aspect of the present invention is the control method of the boost converter that boosts a voltage input from a power supply and supplies a boosted voltage to a load-side. The control method of the boost converter is securing an output electric power required according to an operation point of a motor connected to the load-side, calculating a lower limit voltage value at which the output voltage of the boost converter does not oscillate, setting a target output voltage of the boost converter to a value equal to or higher than the lower limit voltage, and controlling the boost converter so as to output a voltage according to the target output voltage.

Boost converter control method and control apparatus

A control method for a motor system, the motor system having a battery; a boost converter configured to increase DC voltage supplied by the battery; an inverter connected to the boost converter and configured to execute a conversion between DC power and AC power; and a motor generator connected to the inverter. The control method comprising: a limiting power determination step of determining a limiting power in response to an operating point of the motor generator such that an oscillation of a terminal voltage of the boost converter at a side of the inverter is suppressed; and a controlling step of controlling the operating point of the motor generator such that a passing power of the boost converter does not exceed the limiting power.
