MATRIX CONVERTER, WIND POWER GENERATION SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING MATRIX CONVERTER

摘要

A matrix converter according to embodiments includes a power conversion unit and drive controllers. The power conversion unit includes a plurality of bidirectional switches for connecting each phase of an alternating-current (AC) power supply with each phase of a rotary electric machine. When the voltage of the AC power supply is a predetermined value or less, the drive controllers control the power conversion unit to supply reactive power from the power conversion unit to the AC power supply and to control the torque of the rotary electric machine.
