A variable speed Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) with Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) connected to grid through Matrix Converter (MC) is proposed in this study. Necessity for increased demand in electrical energy paved way for use of renewable energy sources, one of which is abundant wind energy available in ample. Various Wind Energy Conversion systems have been proposed over the decades, of which various topologies had been projected, where complex topologies are being in existence. Permanent magnet synchronous generator has substantial advantages over conventional generators like less weight and volume and exemption for separate excitation with high precision. The conventional system involves two stage of conversion involving rectification followed by inversion being coupled by a DC link capacitor before fed to a grid, which decreases the efficiency of the system due to power quality issue. To overcome this matrix converter can be utilized to transfer the power from generation stage to the grid; there by an AC-AC converter can transfer power from generator to the grid. The proposed system is designed and tested in MATALB/Simulink environment and the results are effective.
Key words: Matrix converter, permanent magnet synchronous generator, wind energy conversion system, wind turbine, , ,
