Abstract A new variable speed, constant voltage controller for self-excited induction generator (SEIG) is presented in this paper. The proposed PWM controller regulates the induction generator (IG) terminal voltage against varying rotor speed and changing load conditions. This scheme does not require any real time computations and information regarding rotor speed for calculating the excitation current, thereby minimizing the electronic hardware and the cost of the controller. A simple, over-current protection is incorporated to protect the inverter switches. Computer simulation and experimental results show satisfactory operation of an induction generator with the proposed control scheme. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
