Abstract

This paper deals with modeling and simulation of a directly driven wind generator with a full scale converter as interface to the grid. Using the permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). Now-a-days doubly fed Induction generators are being widely used in wind turbine generator system. So, facing drawbacks such as decrease in efficiency, cost and size. If electromagnetic synchronous generator is used which has rotor current, losses increases there by efficiency decreases. So, In order to overcome this drawback, we adopt permanent magnet synchronous generator in which the rotor current is zero and can be used without a gearbox, which also implies a reduction of the weight of the nacelle and a reduction of costs. Therefore, in this work the modeling and control of a PMSG is presented. All the components of the wind turbine and the grid-side converter are developed and implemented in PSIM. ?
