- Abstract
In this paper is presented a methodology of systemic design and control of a synchronous generator with hybrid excitation for the generation of wind energy. The design of the generator is made by the analytical method taking into account the interactions of the global system. Indeed, the regulation of the speed of the turbine is ensured by adjustment of the excitation current to regulate the electromagnetic torque and in this case the excitation current is limited to a fixed value since the increase of excitation current leads to an increase generator's phase currents magnitude. The increase of the phase's currents of the generator is linked to the increase of the amplitude of the electromotive forces depending on the excitation current. Therefore, to limit the amplitude of the phase's currents to the value of the design current fixed by the note book specifications for a given power of the wind turbine, it is necessary to limit the excitation current by limiting the supply voltage of the DC-DC converter used to vary the excitation current for the regulation of the electromagnetic torque. This technique of speed adjustment is simpler and less expensive than techniques using mechanical and hydraulic braking systems.
