Abstract:
Speed control of permanent magnet synchronous machines for reliable speed wind energy systems has always been a challenging task. But with the development of vector control strategies the speed control process has been easily achievable. In this paper the control of speed and torque of a PMSG is discussed. Vector control strategies have been implemented for the PMSG control. The PMSG is modeled in synchronous rotating reference frame. The whole control scheme is modeled using Matlab/Simulink and the results are discussed

Keywords: Permanent magnet synchronous generator(PMSG), Vector control scheme, PI controllers.
