Multilevel converters have been broadly used in wind energy conversion systems (WECS) to set the generator angular speed to a certain value, which allows maximizing wind power extraction; nevertheless, power that is drawn out from WECS strongly depends on the power coefficient and the ability to operate at the optimal tip speed ratio that corresponds to the maximum power coefficient. This work presents a novel and formal steady-state analysis to demonstrate the reverse relationship between the duty cycle of a multilevel boost converter (MBC) and the angular speed of a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). The study was based on the d–q transformation using the rotor reference frame. It was carried out by employing a reduced order dynamic system that included an equivalent electrical load resistance as a representation for the subsystems that were cascade-connected at the terminals of the PMSG. The steady-state characteristic was obtained by using the definition of equilibrium point. The set of nonlinear equations that represents the steady state of this WECS was solved by using the Newton method; besides, an analysis that considers the equivalent load as a bifurcation parameter demonstrates that the number of equilibria never changes.
