Introduction

● Why Renewable Energy?

❏ Clean energy

❏ Less contribution to global warming

❏ No risk of radioactive exposure

❏ Minimal operating expenses

However,

❏ Noise (rotor blades) & aesthetic impact

❏ Intermittent power source

❏ No storage

❏ Remote locations

❏ High initial investment

AC machines ● Synchronous machines

1. DC current is applied to the rotor winding producing a rotor magnetic field.

2. The rotor is turned by external means producing a rotating magnetic field, which induces a 3-phase

voltage within the stator winding.

3. Wound- Rotor SG- salient poles no need for GB

● Asynchronous / Induction Machines

1. The rotating magnetic flux from the stator induces currents in the rotor, which also produces a

magnetic field.

2. If the rotor turns slower than the rate of the rotating flux, the machine acts like an induction

motor (the slip is positive).

3.If the rotor is turned faster, it acts like a generator, producing power at the synchronous

frequency (the slip is negative).

4.

5.Induction generators are not self-exciting, meaning they require an electrical supply, at least

initially, to produce the rotating magnetic flux.

Wind energy systems - Wind energy characteristics

1.

Where ρ is the air density, β is the pitch angle, Cp(λ, β) is the wind-turbine power coefficient, R is the

blade radius, V is the wind speed (in m/s) and the term λ is the tip–speed ratio, defined as:

2. Power Curves at various Wind Speeds

13

Wind Energy Characteristics 3. Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT)

Aim: To maximize the wind power capture at different wind speeds, by adjusting the turbine speed so

as the optimal tip speed ratio to be maintained.

Wind energy systems - Type 3 Wind Turbine This WT uses a doubly fed asynchronous generator where,

• The stator is directly connected to the grid.

• The rotor is is connected through a back-to-back power converter.

Some WTs include either a chopper or a crowbar for LVRT without bypassing or disconnecting the

converter.

18

These WT’s are connected to the grid through a full scale power converter.

They can use either synchronous or asynchronous generators and some of them use direct drive

synchronous generators. Thus, they do not have a gearbox.

Power system stability - Transient stability ● Concerns the ability of the synchronous generators to remain in synchronism after being subjected to a large

disturbance

● The factors that influence transient stability of the system are:

(a) How heavily the generator is initially loaded.

(b) The generator output during the fault. This depends on the fault location and type.

(c) The fault clearing time.

(d) The post-fault transmission system reactance.

(e) The generator reactance. A lower reactance increases peak power and reduces initial rotor angle.

(f) The generator inertia. The higher the inertia, the slower the rate of change angle. This reduces the

kinetic energy gained during fault.

(g) The generator internal voltage magnitude. This depends on the field excitation.

(h) The infinite bus voltage magnitude.

● Critical clearing time (CCT), the maximum time during which a disturbance can be applied without

the system losing its stability,
