Abstract
This project represents the physical modeling and experimental test of a Doubly-fed Induction Machine (DFIM), in order to substantially analyze the characteristic behaviors of wind turbines and its use in the micro-grid network. The environment set-up is based on a smart micro-grid system, which consists of the grid, a diesel generator, a solar panel, and a wind farm. The hardware work includes the design of a 2.5kW inverter and a L-C-L grid filter (including inductor design and construction). The goal of this research is to better emulate the operation principles of wind turbine system. Future work proposes developing a better control method to improve the stability and reliability of the wind turbine system. Keywords: DFIM, micro-grid, space vector PWM, DTC-SVM, back-to-back inverter, inductor design, and grid filter.
