Comparison of Wind Turbine Driven PMSG Fed Wind Energy Conversion Systems Using Reactive Power Controlled Two Level Inverter

Abstract — Wind energy conversion systems are now seeking great importance today. Replacing Fixed speed wind turbine system with variable speed turbine system improves the performance. To extract and deliver maximum power from wind energy systems, power electronic devices are using. To reduce the harmonics due to the switching action, reactive power control algorithm is used in this work. To maintain the dc link voltage, a rectifier is used. The whole system is simulated for wind energy conversion systems using reactive power controlled Two level inverter with controlled and uncontrolled rectifiers
