induction generators due to high reliability and low maintenance cost for the absence of …

The standalone brushless doubly fed induction generator (BDFIG) has demonstrated
excellent energy-saving performance in ship shaft power generation applications. As a …

This paper is concerned with flux and voltage vector-oriented control of a promising
brushless doubly fed reluctance machine (BDFRM) for generator and drive systems with …

This paper gives an overview of the topological variations of multi-winding induction
machines (IMs) and drives. The study is restricted to IMs having two distributed windings on …

The brushless doubly-fed machine (BDFM) is a family of multiport electric machines with two
ac electrical ports and a common mechanical port. Different from the conventional singly-fed …

In view of its special features, the brushless doubly fed induction generator (BDFIG) shows
high potentials to be employed as a variable-speed drive or wind generator. However, the …

The conventional control methods for brushless doubly-fed induction generator (BDFIG)
normally employ mechanical sensors to acquire the information of rotor speed, which brings …
