Abstract

“Hybrid Offshore-wind and Tidal Turbine” (HOTT) generation system (Rahman and Shirai, HOTT energy Conversion I [6-pulse GTO rectifier and inverter], 2008; HOTT energy conversion II [6-Pulse GTO Rectifier DC connection and Inverter], 2009) interconnecting method for a DC side cluster of wind and tidal turbine generators system are proposed. This method can be achieved using wind and tidal turbine generating system. Four tidal and a wind turbines generator can be interconnected easily with the proposed method, and high reliability and electric output power with high quality are also expected. This method is able to send generated power through a long-distance DC transmission line. The configuration of the hybrid wind and tidal turbine generator system is explained first, and a dynamic model of the hybrid system is developed. The dynamic performances of the HOTT system when the wind and tidal velocity is changing are then discussed. Finally, a control system to keep the DC voltage constant of the HOTT system is introduced.
