Abstract

A new hybrid control method for controlling back-to-back converter in permanent magnet synchronous generator wind turbines Control of a hybrid wind turbine/battery energy storage power generation system considering statistical wind characteristics J. Renewable Sustainable Energy 4, 053105 (2012); 10.1063/1.4751472Control strategies of doubly fed induction generator-based wind turbine system with new rotor current protection topology J. Renewable Sustainable Energy 4, 043123 (2012);This paper presents a simulation study of the control of a variable speed wind energy conversion system (WECS) using a wound field synchronous generator (WFSG). The proposed scheme is based on an RST controller with adaptive fuzzy gain scheduling (AFGS-RST) and regulates the active and reactive powers exchanged between the stator of the WFSG and the grid to ensure a Maximum Power Point Tracking of the WECS. The overall system model was implemented in MATLAB/Simulink with three different power controllers (the polynomial RST, the fuzzy logic controller, and the AFGS-RST controller). The performances of these controllers are evaluated under different operating conditions of the WECS power system. The results demonstrate that AFGS-RST controller is very effective in improving the power flow and very robust against variable transmission line parameters compared to the two other controllers.

Second‐order sliding mode control of wind turbines to enhance the fault‐ride through capability under unbalanced grid faults

“…However, this proposed controller was sensitive to grid frequency deviations. Because of the nonlinear characteristics of the wind turbine generator and external disturbances, nonlinear and robust controllers such as adaptive fuzzy RST (AFRST) regulator [53], interval type-2 fuzzy logic control (IT-2 FLC) [54], highorder sliding mode (HOSM) controller [55], a modified SMC based model predictive control [56], have been proposed. However, these controllers ensure zero steady-state error only for the positive sequence component of the grid current, but not the NS component.…”

A new sliding mode control strategy for variable-speed wind turbine power maximization

“…In Poitiers et al, a comparative study between the polynomial RST control and linear quadratic Gaussian control under wind turbine system parameter variations is presented. A hybrid control that improves the dynamic performance of wind turbines based on a WFSG is presented in Tahir et al Also, a hybrid fuzzy sliding mode controller is proposed in Kerboua . Amrane et al used model reference adaptive control and neuro‐fuzzy control to overcome the drawbacks of classical proportional‐integral‐derivative controllers.…”
