Y. Sakamoto et al., A PARAMETRIC INDUCTION GENERATOR USEFUL FOR THE EFFECTIVE UTILIZATIONOF WIND AND SOLAR POWER, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 31(6), 1995, pp. 4244-4246
The paper describes a new energy conversion machine and its drive syst
ems, which can effectively utilize alternative energies such as wind a
nd solar power. The machine is a separately or a self-excited parametr
ic induction generator. In this paper, the basic operations of the gen
erator are investigated in order to determine the practical usability
of the generator. The characteristics of the generator are also analyz
ed, using an equivalent circuit.
