Multifunctional Grid Connected Inverter Interfaced by Wind Energy Conversion System

摘要

This study deals with a three-phase multifunctional grid-connected inverter interfaced with a wind energy conversion system (WECS) is described. The studied system consists of a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) based wind turbine, a rectifier and a three-phase voltage source inverter connected to the utility at the point of common coupling. To ensure the multifunctional feature, we propose a direct power control (DPC) which is applied to eliminate line current harmonics, compensate reactive power and feeding wind power into the utility. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed system. The results show that the control algorithm of system is effective for eliminating harmonic currents, reactive power compensation and inject the active power available from the PMSG wind turbine into the load and/or grid, which allowed us to confirm the robustness of the proposed strategy.
