The use of wind turbines is increasing at very high rates in many countries around the world. Studies to evaluate the impact of connecting these new generation units to the existing power systems must be done. This paper proposes a wind energy conversion system for a grid connected permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) and power electronic converter system. The model includes a PMSG mod...

A dual stator winding squirrel-cage induction motor (DSWIM) is a brushless single-frame induction motor that contains a stator with two isolated three-phase windings wound with dissimilar numbers of poles. Each stator winding is fed by an independent three-phase inverter. The appropriate efficiency of this motor is obtained when the ratio of two frequencies feeding the machine is equal to the r...

Techniques for analyzing the dynamic patterns of power flow in high frequency dc-dc switching converters are developed. Emphasis is placed on exploring methods for developing reduced order instantaneous and averaged models of power electronic circuits for simulation, analysis, and control design. Tools from selective modal analysis are used to develop the dynamic pattern recognition algorithm, ...

In various kinds of switched-mode power converters, conducted noise due to switching operation frequently causes interference with other electronic equipment. This paper focuses on the common-mode conducted noise generated in switched-mode power converters and presents three examples of noise reduction techniques. First, the common-mode conducted noise is reduced in a common-source type active-...

It shows the development of a new power electronics laboratory by using modern co...

In this paper, the Renewable energy sources, which have been expected to be a promising alternative energy source, can bring new challenges when it is connected to the power grid. However, the generated power from wind energy source is always fluctuating due to environmental condition. In the same way wind power injection into the electrical grid affects the power quality due to the fluctuation...
