Design and simulation of Wind formsfor Grid Connected system usingInductive Filtering Fed Industrial Applications

Abstract

The wind turbine generator system requires a power conditioning circuit called power converter that is capable of adjusting the generator frequency and voltage to the grid. Several types of converter topologies have been developed in the last decades; each of them has some advantages and disadvantages. Mainly two converter topologies are currently used in the commercial wind turbine generator systems. Nonlinear loads cause significant harmonic currents with poor input power factor (PF), which create serious problems at the power supply system. However, the parallel and the series resonance could occur between TIF and grid impedance a STATCOM model is also developed. Simulation studies are carriedout in the Dig silent/Power factory to illustrate the performance ofthe new grid connected wind power system. The results indicatethat the new approach can not only enhance the low-voltageride-through capability of wind turbines, but also significantlyprevent harmonic components flowing into the primary (grid)winding of the new grid connected transformer.Distribution system, as the name suggest, is the medium through which power is distributed among the end consumers Distribution systems are comparatively not as stiff as grid systems, so large starting currents and objectionable voltage drop during the starting of an induction motor could be critical for the entire system. Thus STATCOM is an effective solution for power systems facing such power quality problems. This report deals with one of the potential applications of static compensator (STATCOM) to industrial systems formitigation of voltage dip problem. The dip in voltage is generally encountered during the starting of an induction motor
