This paper presents generic model of hybrid power system consisting in a combined solution one wind turbine with asynchronous generator and on hydro generator with synchronous machine. This technology was developed by to reduce the cost of supplying electricity in remote communities. The optimal wind penetration (installed wind capacity/peak electrical demand) for this system depends on the sit...

In this research paper, the performance of an air-cored axial flux permanent magnet synchronous generator is evaluated for low speed, direct drive applications using 3D finite element modeling and experimental tests. The structure of the considered machine consists of double rotor and coreless stator, which results in the absence of core losses, reduction of stator weight and elimination of cog...

This paper proposes a fast and accurate optimal sizing design of 1.5 MW Permanent Magnets Synchronous Generator (PMSG) for grid-connected wind application. A strategy inspired from the output space mapping technique is adopted. analytical model used detailed to determine parameters performances PMSG. Then, results are validated by precise finite element adjusted iteratively until coherence betw...

This paper presents a standalone hybrid power system using wind/PV/diesel/Battery energy system with Matlab/Simulink environment. PV & Wind are the primary power sources of the system and battery is used as a backup for long run application. Here we have also compare the performance of PV/Wind/Battery connected system with PV/Wind/Diesel connected hybrid power system. The most frequently used r...

A wind power system differs from a conventional power system. In a conventional power plant, the operator can control the plant's output. The output of a wind farm cannot be controlled because the output fluctuates with the wind. In this study, we investigated only the fixed-frequency induction generator, often used with wind turbines. We adopted the worst-case scenario and conducted a per-phas...

Renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, geothermal and tides have increasingly been used to generate electricity. Among these energy sources wind power has gained enormous attention in many parts of the world where no fossil fuels exist and energy requirements are highly demanded. The efficiency of wind power mainly depends on wind produced and a generator converting wind power to electri...

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators are an emerging technology in wind power applications. A simplified Thevenin equivalent simulation model of a wind generator has been developed in the ATPDraw environment and validated by comparing its dynamics with that of a Matlab/Simulink detailed model. The simplified model includes also power electronic circuits, for interfacing the generator to a MV...

Due to the wind speed variation, wind shear and tower shadow effects, grid connected wind turbines are the sources of power fluctuations which may produce flicker during continuous operation. This paper presents a model of an MW-level variable speed wind turbine with a doubly fed induction generatorto investigate the flicker emission and mitigation issues. An individual pitch control (IPC) stra...
