Abstract:

This paper deals with the ac-dc interface conversion in grid-connected wind energy conversion systems based on modular permanent-magnet synchronous generators. In particular, some solutions based on diode rectifiers are extensively analyzed as for the waveforms, the efficiency, and the torque ripple, by considering several connections, which are allowed by the inherent modularity of the considered generators. Rectifier schemes with a high number of pulses can be easily realized without using special shifter transformers so that these solutions can be attractive for low- and medium-power applications.
