An electrical starter-generator system includes a first starter-generator and a second starter-generator. A single drive controls both the first starter-generator and the second starter-generator such that their electrical current and power inputs are minimized and balanced.
A power system including at least two self-controlled synchronous machines operating in parallel synchronously, a central three-phase converter to which all these machines are connected in parallel, at least two rotor position sensors. The system also includes at least one control module that receives phase currents from each synchronous machine, signals output from position sensors, and a required reference torque value and that powers the three-phase central converter so as to slave the phase currents for each machine as a function of the required reference torque.
