Self-excited asynchronous generator, Vector control, Pulse width modulation inverter, Dc-bus voltage regulation, Lead compensator controller designAbstract
This work presents an efficient method for wind power converting applications based on a self-excited asynchronous generator (SEAG). In the adopted study, the machine with the rotor driven by an auxiliary prime mover provides active power to an isolated dc-load via a static converter (SC) associated with a dc bus capacitor through its stator. Thus, for a determined load, the converter's required stator voltages are derived by establishing a specific vector control law relative to a new output control variable introduction. The presented simulation results and their corresponding experimental tests demonstrate that the pretended control strategy ensures perfect output dc-bus voltage tracking performances concerning a simultaneous load drift and the mechanical speed profile.
