We propose a new power conversion system for a permanent magnet synchronous generator(PMSG) based grid-connected wind energy conversion system(WECS) operating with fully-controlled back-to-back current-source converters. On the generator side, two independent current-source rectifiers(CSRs) with space-vector pulse width modulation(SVPWM) are employed to regulate and stabilize DC-link currents. Between DC-link and the electrical grid, a direct-type three-phase five-level current-source inverter(CSI) is inserted as a buffer to regulate real and reactive power fed to the grid and thus adjusts the grid side power-factor. We also present a current-based maximum power point tracking(MPPT) scheme, which helps the generator extract the maximum power through closed-loop regulation of the generator speed. By applying the multilevel modulation and control strategies to the grid-side five-level CSI, a multilevel output current waveform with less distortion is produced, and the bulk requirement of the output capacitor filter to eliminate the harmonic current is reduced. All the proposed concepts are verified by simulation models built in a PSIM environment.
为提高系统的能量利用率和运行可靠性,提出了一种用于电流源逆变器(current source inverter,CSI)光伏并网系统最大功率跟踪(maximum power point tracking,MPPT)方法。该方法通过扰动电阻代替传统扰动观察法中扰动电流实现CSI光伏系统的MPPT,有效避免了传统扰动电流MPPT法存在的最大功率点右侧电流易于失控和功率瞬时跌落的问题。实验结果表明,该扰动电阻MPPT(perturbing resistance MPPT,PR-MPPT)法应用于CSI光伏并网系统,能够有效实现系统的最大功率运行。
