Load sharing is a technique commonly used when powering loads requiring low voltage and high current; for this reason a modular power system is built where two (or more) power supplies or DC-DC ...

System integrators can improve system reliability with redundant, paralleled power supplies that share the load. Load sharing distributes load currents equally among paralleled voltage-stabilized ...

Designers parallel their power supplies to increase system power output or to provide fault tolerance. In this column, Contributing Editor Tom Curatolo discusses various techniques for load sharing ...

Redundant power is a critical component in high availability systems. In the simplest solution, two power supplies can drive a load through diodes to OR their outputs together. In this way, the power ...

Recent Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) research aims to better understand the potential of process control enhancements, such as load control, sliding pressure control, and steam temperature ...
