Dynamic modeling and performance evaluation of axial flux PMSG based wind turbine system with MPPT control

( in lingua inglese)

This research work developed a dynamic model for a gearless small scale wind power generation system based on a single sided outer rotor AFPMSG with coreless armature winding. A 3D FEM model of the considered generator was developed and simulated in both magnetostatic and transient conditions to obtain the machine parameters which are required for dynamic modeling of the system. The considered generator was coupled to a variable speed wind turbine and a MPPTbased FOC control approach was utilized to regulate the speed of the generator to absorb maximum power from the wind turbine.
