Considering the majority of the power losses occur in distribution systems, it is worthwhile to investigate the use of reactive power compensation (RPC) from wind turbines installed in the distribution system for loss reduction. Therefore, this paper analyses the effectiveness of the RPC for loss reduction under different system conditions. These include power factor of the system load, X/R rat...

– This paper investigates the application of the model predictive control (MPC) approach to control the voltage and frequency of a stand alone wind generation system. This scheme consists of a wind turbine which drives an induction generator feeding an isolated load. A static reactive power compensator (SVAR) is connected at the induction generator terminals to regulate the load voltage. The ro...

the natural ventilation is an easy way to exchange the indoor polluted warm air with outdoor fresh air. the wind power injects outdoor fresh air into the building. a good indoor air current and subsequently a proper exhaust depend on the openings’ conditions and their situations. a serious architectural question is under what conditions of the openings the wind-cross ventilation can be effectiv...

This thesis deals with the analysis, modeling, and control of the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) for wind turbines. Different rotor current control methods are investigated with the objective of eliminating the influence of the back electromotive force (EMF), which is that of, in control terminology, a load disturbance, on the rotor current. It is found that the method that utilizes both...

The enhancement in the penetration of intermittent generation necessitates the need to include uncertain behaviour in the conventional power flow programs. In this paper, four different wind generation models have been incorporated in probabilistic load flow for calculating the probability distribution of the reactive power consumed by the wind generators for three different scenarios; i) uncor...

Wind is the world’s fastest growing energy source today. During normal operation, the wind generating systems have large fluctuations due to sudden wind speed changes. The Possible solution for this problem is to use hybrid energy storage management. Thus the performance of this system can be improved by using battery as well as super capacitor which is integrated with wind turbine generators. ...
