6 FAQs about [Wind power synchronous generator]

Are permanent magnet synchronous generators suitable for wind energy conversion systems?

Over the last few years, wind generators based on permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) are becoming the most popular solution for the modern wind energy conversion systems (WECSs). This paper presents a concise review of the grid-integrated WECSs employing permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSGs).

What is a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) based megaWatt-level wind energy conversion system?

The permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) is dominantly used in the present wind energy market. Reflecting the latest wind energy market trends and research articles, this study presents a survey on important electrical engineering aspects for PMSG-based megawatt-level wind energy conversion systems (WECSs).

What are the different types of wind energy conversion technologies?

In the fields of renewable energy research, wind energy conversion technologies are gaining popularity. The squirrel cage induction generator (SCIG), doubly fed induction generator (DFIG), wound field synchronous generator (WFSG), and permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) are the most often utilized generators with WECSs.

Are synchronous generators suitable for variable speed wind turbines?

Synchronous generators are commonly used for variable speed wind-turbine applications, due to their low rotational synchronous speeds that produce the voltage at grid frequency. Synchronous generators can be an appropriate selection for variable speed operation of wind turbines [166, 167]. They do not need a pitch control mechanism.

What is a synchronous generator?

The synchronous generator is a generator, which operates at the synchronous speed, dictated by the frequency of the connected grid, regardless of the magnitude of the applied torque. The magnetic field in the synchronous generator can be created by using permanent magnets or with a conventional field winding.

How to choose a wind turbine generator?

Among others is the design of the wind turbine generator. The desired generator should be small and light weight but such design always leads to a tradeoff in the output power aspect , . Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) and Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) are most commonly used in wind turbine.
