Estudo sobre um gerador de indução duplamente excitado e sua aplicação na geração de energia eólica

Abstract

Wind energy can be considered as one of the most promising sources of energy for the future, as it is clean and renewable energy, so it is not exhausted and can be used in almost every country in the world, in some cases, replacing coal and helping to mitigate the effects of global warming. In countries that have their energy matrix based primarily on hydroelectric power plants such as Brazil, wind power may mean a new way for the future generation, as only hydroelectric power has not been able to meet all energy needs during the year (mainly during the dry season, where reservoir levels are very low). In countries that use other forms of generation, such as thermoelectric or nuclear power plants, wind energy represents a new way of generating clean energy without toxic waste. Besides having the advantage of being used in isolated systems. Based on this assumption, several wind power generation systems are presented in this work, showing the advantages and disadvantages of each arrangement. Particularly, the double-fed induction generation is focused here.
