Results from experiments on a direct driven permanent magnet synchronous generator are presented. Dynamic simulations have been performed using the finite element method in order to study the generator. The simulations are performed by using an electromagnetic model, which is described by a combined field and circuit equation model and is solved in a finite element environment. The stator winding of the generator consists of circular cables and the rotor has surface-mounted, arched, permanent magnets. A complete experimental setup has been used consisting of a motor, a frequency converter, a gearbox and electrical loads. The generator is connected to a purely resistive load. Measurements have been performed for different rotational speeds and different loads. Furthermore, the generator has been studied for the realistic wind turbine loading conditions for operation at the optimum tip speed ratio. The variable speed operation in a wind turbine is evaluated and discussed. The agreement between experimental results and simulations based on finite element calculations is high, indicating precise simulations. The measurement errors are calculated and discussed. Furthermore, other sources of error are suggested and discussed that could explain the differences between the simulations and the measured data.
