Abstract |
|
The aim of this research is to extract maximum power with fixed point calculation, the developed method of maximum power extraction is based on optimal speed calculation of the generator. Here we are going to use PMSG (Permanent magnet synchronous generator) as WTG (Wind Turbine Generator), three phase bridge rectifier for converting ac to dc and boost converter for converting unregulated dc to regulated dc voltage. This control scheme become possible with the help of measuring wind speed then calculating the optimal generator speed and that optimal generator speed will be used as a control signal which will be applied to the boost converter to vary the dc side voltage and control the generator speed according to the optimal speed so that the optimal speed of the generator will be tracked properly in which we will get the maximum power from the generator. The prototype of the WTG with the combination of the mentioned equipment is simulated with the help of MatLab/SIMULINK software. |
