How to get constant 120 volt output from a variable-output hydroelectric source?
So I’m attempting to design a hydroelectric system that will obviously be producing variable power. Lets say I use an AC generator, so directly from there I have varying frequency and power output. I want the final product to be 60Hz, 120V RMS AC. What steps must I take to get there, with reasonably high efficiency and low distortion?
one way is to use DC. Use a DC generator, then use an inverter to generate the AC with the frequency and voltage needed. A good inverter will accept various DC levels at the input, or you can use a battery to level out the voltage.
