Abstract
This paper presents a novel configuration to connect a three-phase doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) to the dc microgrid. The proposed topology connects an uncontrolled con- verter and a full-controlled converter in series with the generator stator windings in an open-end winding (OEW) configuration. The full-controlled converter is connected to an independent dc link based on floating capacitors. The paper discusses the converter operating principles, pulse-width modulation (PWM), DFIG power control, and the floating capacitors' voltage reg- ulation. The work compares the proposed and conventional systems regarding current harmonic distortions, torque ripple, and semiconductor losses. Simulations and experiments show steady-state and transient results for a 0.56-kW DFIG operating at the rated power. Finally, it was verified that the proposed topology presents lower power losses and low-distorted voltages and currents over the DFIG stator windings.
