Abstract

The subject matter of this paper is the Wind

Powered Switched Reluctance Generator – WPSRG for

complementary use in rural properties and in small

communities. It deals with the power grid connected operation

of the wind powered machine. The excitation source of the

WPSRG is a rectified single phase AC line. A mathematical

model for the SRG is presented and confirmed. This model

takes into account the saturation and the mutual inductances

effects. A low cost power converter topology connects the wind

power to the power grid in DC avoiding frequency and voltage

adjustment problems. The converter is used as a part of a really

new arrangement that allows the grid to fully feed the load

without any switching when the WPSRG is not running.

Simulations and experimental results are presented. These

investigations will be helpful to broaden the comprehension of

WPSRG systems in grid connection.
