Abstract
Research related to renewable energy is urgently required to cope with the depletion of fossil fuel and the environmental pollution. This paper deals with maximum power control of 1kW rating wind power generator. To implement direct-drive generator, axial flux permanent magnet generator is adopted to test the converter. The blade is attached to the surface of outer rotor disk. Generally wind power generator is operated under the rated wind speed. To capture maximum power at my given wind speed, the coordination of generator and converter is essential. Buck/Boost converter is designed to charge 24V battery and under the low wind speed it operates as boost converter.
