Patent ID: 11949352

Abstract:
Provided is a method for controlling, by means of field-oriented closed-loop control, an active rectifier which is electrically connected to a stator of a generator of a wind turbine. The generator has a rotor which is mounted so as to be rotatable about the stator and comprises the steps of determining a mechanical position of the rotor with respect to the stator, predefining DC components of rotor-fixed d and q coordinates for at least one 3-phase stator current, determining an AC component for the q coordinate at least as a function of the mechanical position of the rotor, modulating the determined AC component of the q coordinate onto the predefined DC component of the q coordinate, so that a modulated q coordinate is produced which has a DC component and an AC component, and controlling the active rectifier at least as a function of the modulated q coordinate and preferably as a function of the d coordinate.
