Autonomous SEIG in a small wind power plant with voltage and frequency control

This paper deals with the application of an autonomous Self-Excited Induction Generator (SEIG) in a small wind power conversion system (WPCS). Such conversion system has capability to supply power demand of the loads with constant voltage and frequency, for which a power managing method is proposed. Voltage Sourced Converter (VSC) along with Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is used to handle power flow between the SEIG and loads. The proposed control scheme, using a single voltage closed-loop control, is found to be suitable to regulate both voltage and frequency. The WPCS is modelled in MATLAB/Simulink and Power System Block-set (PSB). Simulation results show that Voltage Frequency Controller (VFC) has ability to keep the voltage and frequency constant in spite of perturbations
