Based on gearless continuously variable transmission technology, a cascaded wind power generation system with Variable Speed Constant Frequency (VSCF) is presented in this paper. The system has combined the advantages of doubly-fed and direct-drive wind power generation system. The raising-speed gear box has been done away with, and the system reliability has been improved. Reducing the power capacity of the aspects of the variable frequency speed regulation, the function of grid-connected electricity generation can be achieved with less cost. Synchronous generator directly connects to grid, which helps to optimize power quality. The topological structure of system is discussed in this paper, and its operating principle is analyzed, revealing its characteristics and engineering application prospects.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
