Grid Interface of Wind Energy Trough Multilevel Inverter---Master's Thesis

M.Tech (Thesis):

Title: Grid Interface of Wind Energy by Diode clamped Multilevel Inverter. (Simulation + Hardware)

Software Package: PSCAD/EMTDC.

Description: Recently the usage of distribution generation has significantly increased in the electric power distribution system. Wind generation system has potential application for the grid support. The voltage, frequency and power of the direct driven synchronous generator are variable due to the intermittent nature of the wind energy. Fluctuating voltage and frequency is of major concern for grid connected wind generation systems. An AC/DC/AC converter scheme is used therefore to decouple the machine voltage and frequency from the grid voltage and frequency and make variable speed operation of wind turbine possible. In this thesis, a simple control strategy for converter current control using diode clamped multilevel inverter (DCMLI) with level shifted carrier PWM modulation in the current control mode for real power injection as well as load compensation has been proposed. The converter current injected into a distribution system is controlled in accordance with the wind variation and load compensation is performed as an added facility in order to free the source current being fed from the grid at PCC to be free from harmonic distortion, unbalance and low power factor even though the load currents may be so. The results are validated using PSCAD/EMTDC simulation studies
