Wind Energy Conversion System using a Squirrel Cage Induction Generator Coupled to the Network with a Predictive DPC

This paper presents the modeling of a Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) using a self-excited induction generator (SEIG) coupled to the grid with a predictive Direct Power Controller (DPC), applying an optimal space vector selection technique. The self-excitation of the induction generator is obtained with a Direct Torque Controller (DTC) which allows controlling the machine's space vector flux ...
