Abstract

The paper presents a model, which has been analyzed using genetic algorithm, in order to estimate the steady state performance of three-phase self-excited induction generator under unbalanced operation. The technique as proposed has been implemented on a 15 KW rating machine to see the effect of variation in load power factor of one phase and two phases simultaneously on phase voltages, phase currents, degree of unbalance, power output, power losses and efficiency of the machine.

Keywords: Renewable energy source, self-excited induction generator, genetic algorithm, unbalanced operation, wind power
