We have three diesel generators (3.5 MW) that need to operate in parallel with a 1.5 MW steam turbine generator (STG) on a tanker. Since the STG manufacturer already has the unit ready off the shelf, and management has decided to use it (long lead item). I understand that since the STG has already been manufactured, its electrical characteristics, such as reactance and short-circuit data, are fixed and cannot be modified to suit our specific needs.
I would like to assess its performance when operating in parallel with the diesel generators.
Are there any additional concerns we should address? I would appreciate your input.
