Abstract

Wind turbines and the belonging converters increase in size and price. A reduction in the number of main components is desirable while it reduces need of space, investments and increases the efficiency. A wind turbine contains both a converter reactor and a step up transformer. The paper presents theory and laboratory measurements for a new control strategy which make it possibly to connect a wind turbine converter to the utility grid without using the converter reactor or make measurements at the high voltage side of the transformer. The capability to control the DC voltage and reactive power are shown with a three level diode clamped 20kVA converter for laboratory experiments.
