The paper presents the performance analysis-based reliability estimation of a self-excited induction generator (SEIG) using Monte-Carlo simulation (MCS) method with data obtained from motor operating as generator. global acceptance SEIG depends on its capability to improve system's poor voltage regulation and frequency regulation. In grid-connected generator, magnetizing current is drawn grid, ...

Real-time simulation of a three-terminal high-voltage directcurrent (HVDC) grid connected to a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind farm has been presented in this paper. A recently invented control strategy, known as powersynchronization control, is applied for the integration of the wind farm to the HVDC grid. The dynamic performance study of the system under normal wind power flu...

This paper presents a laboratory study on ‘effects of integration of induction generators on grid power quality parameters such as voltage, frequency power factor, harmonics and reactive power’. Study is carried out with different switching sequence of grid connected induction generators. The analysis is done with two squirrel cage induction generators and one wound rotor induction generator co...

This paper discusses the development of new control method using artificial neural network model for the optimum operation of hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) connected to AC grid. The hybrid system consists of wind generator (WG), diesel generator (DG), and flywheel energy storage system (FESS). The system is based on permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSM) which are controlled by sl...

In order to broaden the limited utilization range of wind power and improve the charging and discharging control performance of the storage battery in traditional small wind power generation systems, a wind power system based on a vertical-axis off-grid induction generator is proposed in this paper. The induction generator not only can run in a wide wind speed range but can also assist the vert...

Variations of marine current speed can lead to strong fluctuations in the power extracted by a marine current turbine (MCT). During short-time period, swell effect is the main cause for the current speed variations. Conventional tip speed ratio Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm will require the MCT to accelerate or to decelerate frequently under swell effect, which can cause severe ...

Energy is one of the most prominent factors in shaping the civilization of today. Under consideration for nonconventional energy source wind energy has turned out to be a leading source of energy. In recent years there has been a significant global commitment to develop a clean and economical alternative sustainable power source especially from wind. In this field of development wound rotor ind...

This paper presents a balanced active and reactive power control, using a Phase Locked Loop for synchronization, and applied to a grid connected Five Level Inverter. The energy source of the system can be a photovoltaic generator or a wind turbine. We size the passive elements of the system and explain the value of the system architecture using a Five Level Inverter when compared to a classical...
