Description
The Generator with Hybrid Controller Training System, manufactured by Atto Labware, is an advanced educational trainer for studying hybrid power generation and control systems. It demonstrates how generators integrate with hybrid controllers and storage systems for efficient energy management. Designed for automobile labs, renewable energy centers, and technical universities, the system is mounted on a portable workstation with built-in safety features.
Educational Objectives
Students will be able to:
-
Understand the principles of AC generators and hybrid power controllers.
-
Explore the integration of generators with batteries or renewable energy sources.
-
Perform load distribution and power regulation exercises.
-
Analyze generator characteristics such as voltage, current, torque, and frequency.
-
Apply diagnostic and safety procedures to hybrid power systems.
Performance Measurement
Training outcomes are evaluated through:
-
Operation of generator and hybrid controller under varying loads.
-
Monitoring of voltage, current, power, and frequency.
-
Demonstration of automatic hybrid switching and regulation.
-
Comparison of performance with and without hybrid controller integration.
-
Troubleshooting of controller, generator, or load-related issues.
