Abstract

A new topology is proposed for direct drive wind turbines that eliminates the use of the failure prone dc-bus electrolytic capacitor, avoids the need for a dc-link inductor by utilizing the synchronous inductance of the wind turbine permanent-magnet generator (PMG), and provides a low-voltage generator design, which decreases the amount of permanent-magnet material used in PMG, and reduces the volume and weight of the generator.
