Control of a Switched Reluctance Generator for Variable-Speed Wind Energy Applications

Abstract


ABSTRACT
Wind power technology, as the most competitive renewable energy technology, is quickly developing. The wind turbine size is growing and the grid penetration of wind energy is increasing rapidly. Currently, the growth on wind energy technology thrust more attentions on efficiency and system reliability. This mainly consists of a Switched Reluctance Generator (SRG) for supplying a grid system in wind energy. The SRG, which excludes permanent magnets, brushes with commutators, and rotor windings, could be a favorable wind system. It has several desired fea-tures, as a simple with solid structure, facility of maintenance, fault toler-ance, and not be expensive. These features are suitable for generators in wind turbine. Nevertheless, in spite of all these useful features, the SRG has not been widely employed in wind applications. The most celebrated SRG disadvantages are its torque ripples with nonlinearity operation, which should be resolved to promote the SRG application in wind energy conversion systems (WECS).
