Abstract :
The paper describes a new energy conversion machine and its drive systems, which can effectively utilize alternative energies such as wind and solar power. The machine is a separately or a self-excited parametric induction generator. In this paper, the basic operations of the generator are investigated in order to determine the practical usability of the generator. The characteristics of the generator are also analyzed, using an equivalent circuit
