Abstract :
With wind as a source of power, induction generators for remote and windy areas are suitable. Especially for remote areas where wind is available in bulk, small scale wind farms are suitable for which a complete set up is analyzed in this paper. The rotor windings are energized through a 3 phase AC of low frequency and the stator supplies 3 phase AC to the load. The method of pitch control is employed for constant frequency operation. The simulation results are also presented.
