The paper presents a power generation system based on the cogeneration of heat and electricity with a novel high speed turbogenerator. The machine consists of a single stage steam turbine and a directly coupled permanent magnet synchronous generator in one constructional unit. A PWM IGBT rectifier is the load to the generator and a PWM IGBT three-phase four-wire inverter feeds the power into the low voltage mains. In order to increase the turbine efficiency at light load, variable speed operation of the turbogenerator is realized. Different control schemes for mains parallel operation and stand alone operation are presented. The control schemes allow for the use of a lookup table based control with a speed-power-characteristic or for the use of a maximum power point tracker. Measurement results from the successfully tested turbogenerator set are presented.
