Title:
POWER GENERATING APPARATUS OF RENEWABLE ENERGY TYPE AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/073504
Kind Code:
A2
Abstract:
It is intended to provide a power generating apparatus of renewable energy type and an operation method of the power generating apparatus, which can achieve both variable speed operation and grid connection without a frequency converting circuit and which uses a hydraulic transmission. In the power generating apparatus of renewable energy type 1, renewable energy received via a blade 4 is transmitted to a synchronous generator 20 via a rotating shaft 8 and a hydraulic transmission 10. The synchronous generator 20 is driven by a hydraulic motor 14 of the hydraulic transmission 10 to generate power. The synchronous generator 20 is connected to a grid without a frequency converting circuit and the power generated by the synchronous generator 20 is supplied to the grid 50. The power generating apparatus 1 is also provided with a transmission controller 40 which controls the hydraulic transmission 10. The transmission controller 40 controls the hydraulic transmission 10 in a normal operation mode to adjust displacement of each of a hydraulic pump 12and the hydraulic motor 14 such that the rotating shaft 8 rotates at a rotational speed that is variable with respect to flow speed of the renewable energy while keeping a rotational speed of the synchronous generator 20 at a synchronous speed based on frequency of the grid 50 during normal operation of the power generating apparatus.
