Abstract :
This paper deals with a brushless DC (BLDC) generator-based wind energy conversion system (WECS) for distributed electric power generation. Three-phase PWM rectifier and maximum-power-point-tracking algorithm are used for controlling the BLDC generator speed to achieve optimum energy output from the wind turbine. A PWM voltage-source inverter is connected to the DC bus for voltage and frequency regulation of AC supply to consumer loads. The BLDC generator-based WECS is modeled by sub-systems, and its dynamic behavior is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment for different wind-speed conditions and consumer loads.
