| Abstract |
In this paper two different conversion systems of wind energy into electricity are investigated. In the first system studied the wind turbine is connected to a three phase diode rectifier. At the output of the non-controlled rectifier a DC/DC boost converter is connected. Controlling the switching pattern for the DC/DC converter the maximum power point (MPPT) is achieved. In the second system the wind turbine is connected to a three-level rectifier consisting IGBTs switches. The three-level rectifier triggered with the space vector modulation method (SVPWM). The maximum power is achieved through and algorithm which modifies the switching pattern. On the grid side a three level inverter is connected. The controllers applied to both systems are fuzzy controllers. For the study of these two systems Matlab/ Simulink was used in steady state and transient response. |
