Active and Reactive Power Control of a Variable Speed Wind Energy Conversion System based on Cage Generator

Abstract

This manuscript presents the modeling and control design for a variable speed wind energy conversion system (VS-WECS). This control scheme is based on three-phase squirrel cage induction generator driven by a horizontal-axis wind turbine through the overhead transmission network. In this manuscript, a static VAR compensator is proposed and connected with the squirrel cage induction generator terminals in order to regulate the system parameters, such as voltage, power. Through the pitch angle, the mechanical power was controlled through Simulink (Matlab) software. From the simulation results, the response of the proposed system offers good robustness and fast recovery under various dynamic system disturbances.
