| 20090167095 | CONNECTION AND DISCONNECTION SEQUENCE FOR VARIABLE SPEED WIND TURBINE HAVING AN EXCITER MACHINE AND A POWER CONVERTER NOT CONNECTED TO THE GRID - A variable speed wind turbine having a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG), includes an exciter machine mechanically coupled to the DFIG and a power converter placed between a rotor of the DFIG and the exciter machine. Thus, the power converter is not directly connected to the grid avoiding the introduction of undesired harmonic distortion and achieving a better power quality fed into the utility grid. Moreover, the variable speed wind turbine includes a power control and a pitch regulation. | 07-02-2009 |
