Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011082943A1] The invention relates to a method for operating an internal combustion engine-generator unit (6) as a range extender (6), comprising the following steps: generating mechanical energy in a combustion engine (7), converting the mechanical energy into electric alternating current in a generator (8, 9), rectifying the alternating current into direct current, controlling the voltage of the direct current in an open-loop and/or closed-loop manner, wherein the voltage of the direct current is carried out by controlling the rotational speed of the generator (8, 9) in an open-loop and/or closed-loop manner.
