Abstract

This work deals with simulation of hysteresis controlled single phase AC-AC converter for wind generation. The AC output of the wind generator is converted into DC using three phase uncontrolled rectifier. The output of the rectifier is filtered using a Z-network. The output of the Z-network is applied to the single phase inverter. The single phase inverter feds an induction motor load . Matlab simulink model for wind generator system is developed and simulation studies are successfully performed. The simulation is done using MATLAB and the simulation results are presented.
