Wind turbine power conversion system
Abstract:
The invention refers to a multilevel topology power converter (I) for electrical adaption of a low voltage alternating current (LVAC) of an electrical wind power generator (1) and a medium voltage (MV) transmission level for a transmission link to each other, the power converter (I) comprising for each phase: a switching unit (9) for adapting the low voltage (LV) and the medium voltage (MV) to each other, the switching unit (9) being controlled by a controller (15), whereby the controlled switching unit (9) separately switches n+1 terminal potentials along terminals of an electrical series of n>1 capacitors C1 . . . Cn (7); a current converter (5) for providing or using a direct current (DC) through the plurality of n>1 capacitors C1 . . . Cn (7) connected in series.
