Development of PMSG wind power system model using wind turbine simulator and matrix converter

풍력터빈시뮬레이터와 매트릭스 컨버터를 이용한 PMSG 풍력발전 시스템 모델 개발

This paper describes development of PMSG wind power system model using wind turbine simulator and matrix converter. The wind turbine simulator, which consists of an induction motor with vector drive, calculates the output torque of a specific wind turbine using simulation software and sends the torque signal to the vector drive after scaling down the calculated value. The operational feasibility of interconnected PMSG system with matrix converter was verified by computer simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC software. The simulation results confirm that matrix converter can be effectively applied for the PMSG system.
