Abstract-Wind energy is currently one of the most costeffective energy source to produce electricity among different renewable resources. With significant growth of wind power capacity installed worldwide and rapid development of technologies, various Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECSs) with different electric machines have been developed during last two decades to maximize the energy capture, to minimize costs, to improve power quality and so on. Within the scope of this review, a comparative study of different WECSs with specific electric machines has been presented describing their concepts, idiosyncrasies, classifications, advantages, disadvantages and current market trends.

“…The SCSG for wind turbine system has a multiple synchronous high-temperature superconducting (HTS) field winding for direct drive train and has been widely studied worldwide. Figure 2 shows the configuration of the 10 MW SCSG wind power generation system, including the wind turbine, the generator, and the convertor [12]. Physical properties and electrical properties of the designed SCSG are given in Tables 1 and 2, respectively [1].…”

In searching for methods to increase the power capacity of wind power generation system, superconducting synchronous generator (SCSG) has appeared to be an attractive candidate to develop large-scale wind turbine due to its high energy density and unprecedented advantages in weight and size. In this paper, a high-temperature superconducting technology based large-scale wind turbine is considered and its physical structure and characteristics are analyzed. A simple yet effective single neuron-adaptive PID control scheme with Delta learning mechanism is proposed for the speed control of SCSG based wind power system, in which the RBF neural network (NN) is employed to estimate the uncertain but continuous functions. Compared with the conventional PID control method, the simulation results of the proposed approach show a better performance in tracking the wind speed and maintaining a stable tip-speed ratio, therefore, achieving the maximum wind energy utilization.

“…Thus, p = 30. Applying the reported HTS coil design parameters (Li X. et al, 2010) to this model, the schematic view of the generator and the FEM estimated field distributions in the cross-section is shown in Figure 9. In this design, the excitation current of the rotor is 80 A, the FEM estimated air gap field at the inner radius of the stator Bg is about 0.98 T, and the maximum field in the HTS coil is about 0.55 T, as shown in the figure.…”
