In the recent years, many wind turbine generation systems (WTGS) have been installed in many countries. However the electric power obtained from wind generators is not constant due to wind speed variations. The generated electric power and the loss in WTGS change corresponding to the wind speed variations, and consequently the efficiency and the capacity factor of the system also change. In thi...

A 2D analytical method for magnetic vector potential calculation in inner rotor surface mounted and surface inset permanent magnet machines considering slotting effects, magnetization orientation and winding layout has been proposed in this paper. The analytical method is based on the resolution of Laplace and Poisson equations as well as Maxwell equation in quasi- Cartesian coordinate by using...

This paper proposes a new method for direct control of active power and stator flux of permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) used in the wind power generation system. Active power and stator flux are controlled by the proposed discrete time algorithm. Despite the commonly used vector control methods, there is no need for inner current control loops. To decrease the errors between refere...
