Design and implementation of digital power converter for wind energy conversion system

This paper proposes the design and implementation of power converters for wind energy conversion system. The proposed system consists of a wind generator, a boost converter, and a full-bridge inverter. The wind generator is the main power source of the system, and a digital signal processor (TMS320F2812A) is used to be the system controller. The system controls the duty cycle of the boost converter to achieve the maximum power tracking. Finally, a unipolar switching full-bridge inverter is used to provide a stable output voltage. The experimental and simulation results on a 200-W wind generator are provided to verify the performance of the proposed system.
