Abstract

In this paper, a new open-winding control strategy is proposed for a brushless doubly-fed reluctance generator (BDFRG) applicable for wind turbines. The BDFRG control winding is fed via a dual two-level three-phase converter using a single dc bus. Direct power control based on maximum power point tracking with common mode voltage elimination is designed, which not only the active and reactive power is decoupled, but the reliability and redundancy are all improved greatly by increasing the switching modes of operation, while DC-link voltage and rating of power devices decreased by 50% comparing to the traditional three-level converter systems. Consequently its effectiveness is evaluated by simulation tests based on a 42-kW prototype generator.
