DUAL SATURABLE REACTOR POWER SUPPLY
A power supply system includes a first saturable reactor electrically connected to a first AC phase input, to a second AC phase input, and to a third AC phase input. The first saturable reactor is electrically connected to a first DC output. A second saturable reactor is electrically connected in parallel with the first saturable reactor to the first AC phase input, to the second AC phase input, and to the third AC phase input. The second saturable reactor is electrically connected to a second DC output. A reactor controller can be operatively connected to the first saturable reactor and to the second saturable reactor to regulate DC output voltage to the first and second DC outputs.

METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A RECTIFIER CONNECTED TO A PERMANENT-MAGNET SYNCHRONOUS ELECTRIC GENERATOR TO PROVIDE A DIRECT VOLTAGE, CORRESPONDING DEVICE AND COMPUTER PROGRAM
This method comprises: determining a first setpoint (Iq_ref) for a first vector component (Iq) of the phase currents (Ia, Ib, Ic) along a first axis (q) of a rotating reference frame (R) connected to a rotor (112) of the electric generator (108), and a second setpoint (Id_ref) for a second vector component (Id) of the phase currents (Ia, Ib, Ic) along a second axis (d) of the rotating reference frame (R), this second vector component (Id) of the phase currents (Ia, Ib, Ic) being intended to bring about defluxing of the rotor (112); and controlling the rectifier (118) on the basis of the first and second setpoints (Iq_ref, Id_ref) for the vector components (Iq, Id) of the phase currents (Ia, Ib, Ic). The first setpoint (Iq_ref) for the first vector component (Iq) of the phase currents (Ia, Ib, Ic) is determined on the basis of an external feedback loop designed to feedback-control a voltage on a DC bus or to regulate a current from a battery connected to the DC bus.

POWER CONTROL DEVICE
A power control device includes a power receiving unit, a power converting unit, and a control device. The power receiving unit includes a secondary coil that receives AC electric power transmitted from a power transmitting device in a non-contact manner.
