Abstract

Wind energy is an important source of electrical power in recent years. d summarize the content of the paper. Its main advantage comes from the fact of being a renewable and environmental-friendly energy. Permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSG) applied to wind energy conversion system (WECS) using variable speed operation is being used more frequently in wind turbine application. Variable speed systems have several advantages over the traditional method of operating wind turbines, such as the reduction of mechanical stress and an increase in energy capture. To allow the variable speed operation of the PMSG WECS a conventional three-phase bridge rectifier (BR) with a bulky capacitor associated with a voltage source current controlled inverter (VS-CCI) is used. This paper presents a comparative simulation study between three different approaches applied to harmonic mitigation in PMSG WECS. The studied techniques are single-switch three-phase boost rectifier and three-phase boost type PWM rectifier.
