A wind turbine architecture employing a new three port magnetic gear box
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Mechanical gearboxes are typically employed with doubly-fed induction generator based wind turbines to convert the turbine's low speed mechanical power into high-speed mechanical power to drive the electrical generator. ...
Fault ride-through capability enhancement based on flywheel energy storage system for wind farms connected via VSC high voltage DC transmission
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
This paper proposes a recovery strategy for wind energy-fed voltage source converter high voltage DC transmission systems, capable of maintaining power balance between the AC and DC sides during different AC faults. This ...
Active and reactive power management of photovoltaic-based interline dynamic voltage restorer in low voltage distribution networks
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
A dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is a series connected device that can support the voltage at existing critical loads during voltage sags. Voltage restoration may need active and/or reactive power injection into the ...
Brushless doubly fed induction machine as a variable frequency transformer
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Variable frequency transformer (VFT) has been recently used as an alternative to HVDC to control power flow between asynchronous networks. VFT consumes less reactive power than a back-to-back HVDC system, provides faster ...
A modified modulation scheme for capacitor voltage control of renewable energy-fed grid-connected Z-Source Inverters
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
An important issue in grid connection applications is boosting the limited output voltage of the renewable energy sources. Two-stage converters are most commonly employed for successful grid connection and optimum power ...
Magnetic gearbox with an electric power output port and fixed speed ratio for wind energy applications
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Mechanical gearboxes are typically employed with doubly-fed induction generator-based wind turbines. The main drawback of this solution is the gearbox's reliability and maintenance. Using magnetic gearbox in conjunction ...
