Efficiency of a Six-Phase Induction Generator Employing a Static Excitation Controller to Generate AC Power for Wind Energy

The most widely applied six phase induction generator (SPIG) leads to insufficient frequency regulation ability of power system. A SPIG Combined with appropriate capacitors and a motor, it produces an induction generator that is self-excited. The advantage of this generator, which has recently caught the interest of various experts, particularly in the field of wind energy, combines the advantages of multiphase devices. This study aims to offer a technique for regulating the voltage of a wind-powered SPIG. The methodology suggests two different compensation setups for (V-f) control, involving two switching capacitors. Different setups' performance constraints, controls, and features will be closely scrutinized and contrasted. The performance limits of the suggested system will be contrasted. to those of variable speed and variable capacity systems after being modelled and simulated. The results show that using the optimal capacitances for each configuration improves voltage and frequency regulation significantly. The preferable option, however, is short-shunt compensation since it regulates the output voltage and frequency with the fewest capacitances and the least amount of necessary duty fluctuation.
