Simulation of Power Electronics Interface Used In Wind Energy Conversion System

Authors(2) :-Dr. Bhavna Jain, Archana Dixit

With the development in Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS), various types of electrical generators according to the application along with appropriate power electronic interface has been used to provide electrical power to grid/load. The main component of rectifier-inverter interface is inverter, which uses Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for control purpose. Various modulation schemes are used to generate pulses of voltage source inverter. In this paper, triangular carrier based pulse width modulation scheme is used and simulation results are presented and performance of the system is investigated. The system performance is investigated on the basis of voltage and current THD, power factor, and active and reactive power consumption.
