Investigation of doubly-fed machine in variable speed applications: control verification

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6463092

The generator control system for a doubly-fed wind machine in variable speed applications is described. The control system has been assembled and its performance has been tested with a hybrid computer simulation of a wind turbine drive train. The generator is composed of an excitation controller and a cycloconverter controller. (LEW)
