Design and analysis aspects of radial flux air-cored permanent magnet wind generator system for direct battery charging applications

Stegmann, Johannes Abraham (Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2010-12)

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The electromagnetic and mechanical design aspects of optimally designed doublesided rotor radial flux permanent magnet wind generators with non-overlap aircored (iron-less) stator windings are analysed ...
Efficient modelling of a wind turbine system for parameter estimation applications

Bekker, Johannes Cornelius (Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2012-03)

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Wind energy is a very current topic, both locally and internationally. It is one of the most rapidly growing renewable energy sources with installed capacity doubling every three years. South Africa's ...
An investigation into the grid compliance of the slip synchronous permanent magnet wind generator

Spies, Andries Theodorus (Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2013-03)

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The slip synchronous permanent magnet generator (SSG) is a direct-driven direct-grid connected generator developed to alleviate the need for expensive gearboxes and solid-state power converters on wind ...
Modelling and design of an eddy current coupling for slip-synchronous permanent magnet wind generators

Mouton, Zac (Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2013-03)

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Slip-synchronous permanent magnet generators (SS-PMG) is a recently proposed direct-grid connected direct-drive generator topology for wind power applications. It combines a permanent magnet synchronous ...
Modelling, design and implementation of a small-scale, position sensorless, variable speed wind energy conversion system incorporating DTC-SVM of a PMSG drive with RLC filter

Bouwer, Pieter (Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2013-03)

Wind energy has proven to be a viable source of clean energy, and the worldwide demand is growing rapidly. Variable speed topologies, with synchronous generators and full-scale converters, are becoming more popular, and ...
