Direct Power Control and Space Vector Modulation‐Based Direct Power Control for Brushless Doubly‐Fed Reluctance Generator.

This paper deduces the quantitative relationship between the flux vectors and the power of power winding (PW) in brushless doubly‐fed reluctance generator (BDFRG). On this basis, the direct power control (DPC) theory of BDFRG is established, which makes up the deficiency that the DPC theory of BDFRG is only based on qualitative analysis in the existing literature. The power derivative expression is derived for accurately analyzing the effect of voltage vector of control winding (CW) on the power of PW, concluding that the control effect of DPC is related to the operation point of a BDFRG. The number of basic voltage vectors of CW connected with two‐level converter is limited, resulting that under some operation conditions, a BDFRG controlled by DPC could present a time interval where the power cannot be controlled satisfactorily. Therefore, the space vector modulation‐based direct power control (SVM‐DPC) strategy of BDFRG is proposed, which can solve the above problem and fix the switching frequency. Experimental results prove the correctness of the elaboration and the proposed method. © 2023 Institute of Electrical Engineer of Japan and Wiley Periodicals LLC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
