The doubly salient electrical generator (DSEG) has characteristics of easy control and high reliability, so it has been used in the high speed field. To satisfy the low speed and high power characteristics of direct driven wind power (DDWP), this paper first analyzes the control strategy of DSEG used in DDWP, and then studies the novel direct driven doubly salient electrical wind generator (DDDSEWG) with exterior rotor by the finite element analysis in Ansoft. The DDDSEWG is fitted for the area of wide speed and load range. Simulation results by Matlab demonstrate the positive electrical characteristics of DDDSEWG.
