Description
Summary:The advancements in power electronics technology has made the usage of wind energy conversion technology (WECT) dominant in electrical power generation compare to other technologies. In this paper, modeling, and analysis is made for latest power electronic converter topologies and Induction generator topologies (IG) used in WECT. The mathematical models are built in MATLAB environment. The dominantly used IG i.e., self excited induction generator (SEIG) and Doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG), Wind modeling, Turbine Modeling, Gear shaft modeling are discussed in detail. This paper concludes by evolving new methods for stabilization of wind farms with new power converter topologies from the obtained results.
