Design and implementation of wind energy based improved positive output super-lift Luo converter

Abstract

In recent years, the interest in use of renewable resources has rapidly increased because of the steady rise of electricity demand globally. Among all alternative energy sources, wind energy is non-polluting and freely available source which is made feasible in order to extract power using an integrated wind energy model, which is proposed in this paper. A DC-DC converter named improved positive output super-lift Luo converter(IPOSLC)is integrated with the wind energy model to transfer high power to the battery. IPOSLC is super-lift converter in which the positive output voltage increases in geometric progression. In this a permanent magnet synchronous generator(PMSG) based wind turbine is modeled to extract the maximum power from wind energy model. The proposed system has been modeled and simulated using Matlab/Simulink.
