Abstract:
A hybrid AC and DC distribution system includes a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG), a DC distribution bus, an AC/DC converter, an AC distribution bus, and a DC/AC converter. The DFIG includes a rotor and a stator, and is configured to generate a first AC power at the rotor and a second AC power at the stator. The AC/DC converter is coupled to the rotor and the DC distribution bus. The AC/DC converter converts the first AC power to a first DC power at a first node for delivery to a first load through the DC distribution bus. The DC/AC converter is coupled between the first node and a second node coupled to the stator and the AC distribution bus. The DC/AC converter converts the first DC power to the second AC power at the second node for delivery to a second load through the AC distribution bus.
