چکیده
This paper presents an analysis and simulation of a Wind Turbine Generator (WTG) driving a low speed Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG). The results of the tests are obtained by using the PSIM computer simulation program. The voltage source PWM inverter is used to interface the system with the electrical utility that is simulated in this paper as a resistive-inductive load.

متن کاملAdvantages of ac-ac power converters based on ANPC topology for wind applications
Wind energy conversion systems (WECS) are increasingly higher due to the great demand of wind energy. Thus, the power converter will play a more important role in the next generation of large WECS. Currently, the most accepted ac-ac power converter for WECS is the conventional twolevel back-to-back (2L-B2B). However, 2L-B2B is expected not to provide an acceptable performance for the largest of...

Iranian offshore oil and gas platforms are mostly located in the Persian Gulf. Technical and environmental challenges resulted from an off-design running condition of processes on a platform are important issues. The weakness of strategies to stop or decrease the amount of greenhouse gas emission production rate in the Persian Gulf; which is intensively increasing, is another matter of concern....
متن کاملDesign and Implementation of a New Switch-Diode based Single Source Multilevel Inverter Topology
Multilevel inverters are a new generation of DC-AC converters at medium and high voltage and power levels. These converters have made great strides in the use of industrial applications compared to conventional two-level inverters due to lower harmonic distortion, filter size, EMI and dv/dt. Besides these merits, some disadvantages can be mentioned such as more power electronics devices and com...
