MODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF WIND ENERGY SYSTEM CONNECTED WITH GRID AND TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION EVALUATION BASED ON DIFFERENT CONDITION AND FILTER CONFIGURATION.

This paper deals with a wind energy conversion system connected with grid. In this system rotor side and grid side converters are used to cope with reactive powers generated and to get the balanced output at the load side. A very effective control technique has been developed based on pulse width modulation to make the line voltages at the point of common coupling. Various filters have been used in this system and according to different filter parameters and design, the total harmonic distortion (THD) has been compared and calculated accordingly.
