Design and development of a high-efficiency wind turbine based on a slow-speed gearless multiphase doubly-fed induction generator

he project aims to develop a novel structure of the low-speed doubly-fed induction generator structure in which slip rings will be eliminated – brushless doubly-fed induction generator (BLDFIG) with a completely revised design featuring outstanding hi-tech style. Moreover, this kind of structure enables the elimination of the gearbox in wind turbine. The goal of the project is to develop an integrated structure of BLDFIG with a dedicated active and reactive power control algorithm system in 5 phase configuration. The project focuses on the framework of modern electric generators – brushless and without permanent magnet generators (e.g., use in modern wind power plants). Eliminating brushes and slip rings will significantly improve its reliability and efficiency, reduce geometric dimensions and mass, and ultimately reduce maintenance and service costs. Solution with 5-phase winding is entirely new and original and is not described in domestic or foreign literature.

The article presents a slip compensation method for traditional scalar (V/f) control of a five-phase induction motor. The proposed control method uses the possibility of injecting the third harmonic of voltage to increase the motor’s electromagnetic torque. The solution is characterized by both the simplicity of scalar control and improved speed control efficiency. The paper presents the PLECS simulation results and describes the...

This paper investigates the performance of a five-phase silicon carbide (SiC)-based current-source converter (CSC) integrated with a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) for wind energy applications. The study explores both healthy and faulty operation, focusing on system behavior under transient conditions and various load scenarios in stand-alone mode. A novel five-phase space vector PWM strategy in dual coordinate planes is...

The article presents the Power Hardware in the Loop (PHIL) approach for an autonomous power system analysis based on the synchronous generator model incorporating magnetic saturation effects. The model was prepared in the MATLAB/Simulink environment and then compiled into the C language for the PHIL platform implementation. The 150 kVA bidirectional DC/AC commercial-grade converter was used to emulate the synchronous generator....
