“…Singh et al used a SEIG for stand-alone renewable power systems. In this machine, they presented a simple method for determining the required serial and shunt capacitance in suitable values to provide voltage regulation or the initial self-excitement [13]. Kheldeun et al presented the application algorithm to do the performance analysis of the SEIG [14].…”

One of the working induction generators is the self-excited induction generator (SEIG). In the self-excited mode, the generator can produce its voltage and frequency and for this it requires a capacitor. Determination of exciting capacitance of the induction generator (IG) is very important in adjusting the capacitance size. The effect of varying the capacitance of this capacitor on the generated output power, voltage, and its frequency has been studied. Besides, these three factors also differ inside by the value of the capacitor, the speed of the generator, the size and the change of the load, and the parameters of the generator. For this purpose, an experimental system, which consists of an AC driver, an induction motor, an induction generator, a step-down transformer, an AC/DC converter, and a controller, was installed. Various loading and excitation capacitor configurations of the IG were also examined at load and no-load. Thus, the experimental analysis of the powers gathered from the output of the generator has been achieved.

“…Multiphase generators have been studied much less than multiphase variable-speed drives and this remains to be an interesting topic, especially for WECS. In particular, multiphase machines with multiple three-phase windings are very convenient for WECS and several studies, employing six-phase and nine-phase generators, have been conducted recently [5,6]. Companies, as GAMESA Electric, also propose WECS, using eighteen-phase generator with six back-to-back three-phase converters [7].…”

“…The changes in the system are kept to a minimum compared to standard three-phase WECS, but the topology can take advantage of some specific features of multiphase generators. This approach has been adopted for six-phase [5]- [6], nine-phase [7] and eighteen-phase generators [8]. In contrast to the case when a three-phase generator is used, multiphase generators allow the use of either parallel or series connection of the machine-side converters.…”

This paper presents an investigation of the dc-link voltage balancing control for an asymmetrical six-phase wind energy conversion system, which utilises series-connected two level machine-side converters and a three-level grid-side neutral point clamped (NPC) converter. In such a topology, the dc-link voltages drift apart if there are asymmetries at the machine-side, so dc-link voltage balancing control is required. The work investigates the capability of the NPC converter to balance the dc-link voltages and examines additional control, provided by the machine-side converters, which can extend the control range. Simulation results confirm that a satisfactory control can be achieved when both converter sets contribute to the dc-link voltage balancing.
