Reducing Harmonics Using Current Source Topology for Wind Turbines
Authors(1) :-Aarthi G P
In this study, a Current-Source Inverter (CSI) topology tailored for large multi-megawatt wind turbine applications. The cable distance between the generator and the mains enables the realization of a significant portion of the DClink inductance. In order to improve the efficiency and to allow the possible utilization of rugged inexpensive Thyristors, PWM modulation is not used in the main conversion chain. The 5th and 7th harmonics of the mains line currents are reduced by choosing a proper nominal operating point for the turbine. Further harmonic reduction is achieved through an active filter. Simulation results of the dynamic model of the wind system are presented, for different operating points, to show the good performance of the system.
