Abstract

The paper deals with squirrel cage induction generator connected to the grid through a back-to-back converter, which is driven by vector control. The stator side converter controls the generator torque using an indirect vector control. The grid side converter controls the DC Bus voltage and the reactive power. The proposed control strategy is validated by simulation in Matlab/Simulinkr^®.
