Abstract
A hydraulic system, for example a seal oil system, includes a hydraulic feeding pump having a motor, a hydraulic motor having a generator, a cooler and a storage tank for receiving hydraulic fluid. The hydraulic feeding pump is configured to draw hydraulic fluid from the reservoir and to direct the fluid to one or more consumers (for example mechanical seals). The hydraulic motor installed downstream of the consumer drives an electric generator. The generator can be coupled to a VFD which controls the speed of the hydraulic motor. The electric power, generated by the generator, is fed back into the power grid.
