Reduction of grid fault effect on operating of PM wind turbines equipped with matrix converter

The purpose of this paper is investigating the operation of a permanent magnetic wind turbine equipped with matrix converter under the grid´s fault. In this regard, when a fault occurs in the grid, the amplitude and the phase of output´s voltages of converter controls in such a way that limits the fault´s current and turbine remains in power generation mode. This process is implementing by using a simple algorithm without concepts like vector control, and with designing a matrix converter power circuit and controlling that based on VENTURNI method, then the results of simulation are going to be analyzed in MATLAB programming environment.
