Abstract:
The capacity of the direct driven permanent magnet wind turbine was usually reached megawatt, and the parallel structure was the main solution for expansion. The generator side of the traditional wind power converter was always has an independent DC bus. Although it had the advantages of a simple controller, but the cost would higher and the volume would increase. Aiming at it, a new control schema of parallel rectifiers for a direct drive permanent magnet wind power generator had been proposed. The purpose of the controller was to suppress circulation current caused by asynchronization between the paralleled rectifiers. Therefore, the loop circulation current between the multiple rectifiers had been analyzed, and the dynamic of zero sequence current had been modeled at first. Then, the independent current controllers havd been designed, and it generated the pulse modulation signal to the rectifiers through the synchronous carrier phase shift generator. Each controller used the same rotor position observer, so as to realize the current of each module synchronization and equalization, and the total generator torque optimal matching. In order to verify the performances of the proposed controller, the platform based on 1.5MW wind power system was built, and some experiments had been done. The results showed that the rectifier modules of the converter operators well with the new controller, and the performances of the controller were good.
