Abstract

A new topology was recently developed to drive generators, aiming to avoid power electronic devices directly connected to the grid, and making possible the hybridization of the wind power with other sources. The system is composed by an induction machine with rotor in squirrel cage, and a rotating armature endowed with a three-phase winding that may be fed by a secondary source. The previous purpose was to convert a variable velocity imposed by the wind turbine to the armature in a constant velocity to be developed by the cage rotor, driving a shaft of synchronous generator. This article proposes the use of an induction generator instead of a synchronous one in order to explore the maximum available wind energy (MPPT). The simulation results show that the proposed topology is viable and supports both variations in wind speed and disturbances in power grid.
