Hydrogen purge system, computer program product and related method
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- at least one computing device configured to perform the following;
obtain an indication of a fault in an alternating current (AC) power supply to a hydrogen-cooled dynamoelectric machine system;
determine a reserve power characteristic of a reserve energy storage device in response to obtaining the indication of the fault in the AC power supply; and
extend a pre-purge cycle for the hydrogen-cooled dynamoelectric machine system based upon the reserve power characteristic of the reserve energy storage device, wherein the pre-purge cycle includes a time prior to a purge process, the purge process including purging the hydrogen-cooled dynamoelectric machine system of hydrogen.
