Multi-input rectifier stage for a system of hybrid PV/wind driven PMSG

Abstract

This article depicts a novel configuration of the multi-input rectifier stage for a system of hybrid PV/wind driven permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques are applied to extract maximum power from the wind turbine and the solar module when it is obtainable to increase the PV efficiency and wind driven PMSG. Using dc/dc converter topology individually with control of MPPT to produce power. Perturb and Observe (P&O) MPPT algorithm is applied for PV device that the dc voltage is utilized as perturbation variable whereas, in wind system, the perturbation variable is utilized in modified P&O MPPT algorithm. In this work, the main contribution is the implementation of a PV/wind driven PMSG hybrid model in the form of Matlab Simulink based on multi-input rectifier stage. In this study, a multi-input rectifier topology for grid-inserted PV/Wind driven PMSG model has been applied. MPPT based control of PV supply is carrying out on cuk converter topology. The multi-input rectifier stage has the ability to eradicate current harmonics. Therefore, no extra input filters are required. Matlab/Simulink program is applied in the present study to implement the modeling and analysis of grid-inserted PV/wind driven PMSG based on multi-input rectifier topology.
