Abstract
A ram air turbine (RAT) system can include a generator configured to be turned by a RAT and to output an alternating current (AC) power, a generator control unit (GCU) configured to control an output of the generator, a rectifying module configured to rectify the AC power into a direct current (DC) power, and a DC load configured to receive the DC power from the rectifying module. The DC load can be operatively connected to the GCU to provide feedback from the DC load to the GCU. The GCU can be configured to control the output of the generator as a function of the feedback to prevent stalling of the RAT and/or doorbelling current and/or voltage in the system caused by disconnecting the generator from the DC load.
