Abstract :
Permanent magnet synchronous generators feeding into an intermediate d.c. circuit via a diode rectifier operate at relatively low active factor. Compensators such as STATCOM and SSSC are proposed to improve generator output voltage and power. In view of wind energy system application their performance is also investigated in variable speed operation. Simulation results of an example are shown.
