Abstract

An electrical system having a first dual-wound rotary electric machine mechanically coupled with a first gas turbine spool and having a first three-phase sub-machine and a second three-phase submachine; a second dual-wound rotary electric machine mechanically coupled with a second gas turbine spool and having a third three-phase sub-machine and a fourth three-phase submachine; and a set of N=4 bidirectional converter circuits for conversion of alternating current (ac) to and from direct current (dc), each of which has an associated index n=(1, . . . , N), and for all n, the ac side of the nth bidirectional converter circuit is connected with the nth three-phase sub-machine. The dc side of the first converter circuit is connected with the dc side of the third converter circuit, and the dc side of the second converter circuit is connected with the dc side of the fourth converter circuit.
