Abstract
It is featured that a generator can respond to a variation in the load with a generous margin regardless of the its temperature. The output current of the generator is rectified with a converter consisting mainly of a thyristor bridge. A direct current output of the converter is then converted by an inverter into an alternating current at a commercial frequency and then connected to the load . The engine speed is controlled so that the on state angle of the thyristors in the converter is maintained to a target angle. Since the target angle is set within a range not higher than the maximum limit, the generator can constantly run with a generous margin and readily respond to a variation in the load. The target angle can be modified depending on the temperature of the generator in order to inhibit the engine from being overloaded and its speed from increasing excessively.
