摘要:
An inverter control is used to control the output of a distributed power generating station, such as a photovoltaic (PV) solar power station, connected to a power grid. The power station is connected to an inverter output. Pulse width modulation is used to shape the output in order to maximize power output within power quality parameters and provides control of a switching frequency of the inverter responsive to a sensed parameter. The technique allows an increase in output efficiency and provides for adjustment of power output to meet power quality parameters to an extent required in order to connect to the power grid.

A group of solar power stations with inverters are adjusted in order to achieve optimum power output in accordance with maximum power-point tracking (MPPT). The MPPT data is used to perform adjustments. Power measurement factors, including Maximum Power Points (MPPs) are established to represent a bus-voltage setting that produces the maximum power output from an individual photovoltaic panel. These settings are established for the group so as to optimize power output under a variety of operating conditions.

The disclosure details implementations of apparatuses, methods, and systems for regulating DC bus voltages. In an implementation, the system is configured to regulate the DC bus voltage directly by operating at the DC bus rather than indirectly on the AC side of the DC bus. In one implementation, the DC voltage regulator is configured with components including a DC voltage regulator power control board, a switching device, a resistor, and a flyback diode. In one non-limiting implementation example, the DC voltage regulator may be used to control the DC bus voltage of a doubly fed induction generator of a wind turbine. In this implementation, the DC voltage regulator effectively protects the converter of the induction generator and also reduces the transient torques on the generator shaft during voltage irregularities. This, in turn, reduces excessive wear on the wind turbine gearbox by limiting fatigue loads on the gear teeth that may result from transient torques.

摘要:
A wind turbine power converter is disclosed herein that smooths the output power from a variable speed wind turbine, to reduce or eliminate substantial power fluctuations on the output line. The power converter has an AC-to-DC converter connected to a variable speed generator that converts wind energy to electric energy, a DC-to-AC inverter connected to a utility grid, and DC voltage link connected to an electrical energy storage device such as a battery or a fuel cell, or a photovoltaic or solar cell. Also, an apparatus and method is disclosed herein for controlling the instantaneous current flowing through the active switches at the line side inverter to supply reactive power to the utility grid. The inverter can control reactive power output as a power factor angle, or directly as a number of VARs independent of the real power. Reactive power can be controlled in an operating mode when the wind turbine is generating power, or in a static VAR mode when the wind turbine is not operating to produce real power. To control the reactive power, a voltage waveform is used as a reference to form a current control waveform for each output phase. The current control waveform for each phase is applied to a current regulator which regulates the drive circuit that controls the currents for each phase of the inverter. Means for controlling the charge/discharge ratio and the regulating the voltage on the DC voltage link is also disclosed.
