Abstract :
This paper presents a reduced model for permanent magnet synchronous generators operating in variable-speed wind energy conversion systems (WECS). The generator supplies power to a diode rectifier bridge with constant-voltage load. The proposed model has the main advantage of low complexity, thus making it ideal to include in complex systems, such as microgrids. The model was validated on a 2kW laboratory prototype.
