A Study on the Maximum Power Control Method of Switched Reluctance Generator for Wind Turbine

This paper deals with a new torque ripple minimization method for a Switched Reluctance Generator (SRG). Although, the SRG has many advantages including simple and robust construction, and high power density as a generator, it has not been widely employed in the industry. One of the major drawbacks of the SRG is its high torque ripple that results in high noise operation of the generator. In this paper, a non-unity Torque Sharing Function (TSF) is proposed to minimize the torque ripple over a wide speed range of operation. Simulations as well as experimental results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed torque ripple minimization technique.

At present, the study of SRG mainly focus on problems of the optimization of body structure, the output voltage ripple suppression, the maximum output power control and so on (Choi D W et al 2014) (Faridnia N et al 2012) (Sikder C et al 2014). However, the study of the main circuit topology has not been paid enough attention.…”

Residential electricity load decomposition method based on maximum a posteriori probability AIP Conference Proceedings 1839, 020042 (2017) Abstract. Considering the small output power of switched reluctance generator (SRG) at low speed, this paper proposes a new power converter topology based on the operation principle of switched reluctance generator, aiming to improve the performance of traditional power converter. The new power converter includes two working modes: full winding excitation power generation and partial winding excitation power generation, which are applied to different speed to increase the output power. To verify the feasibility of proposed converter, simulations and experiments on the SRG with single phase, external rotor, and U-shaped stators are conducted, compared with the traditional power converter. The simulation results show that the new power converter increases the output power and improve the efficiency of SRG at low speed.
