Fuzzy logic based indirect Vector control of Induction generator in Wind Energy Conversion System

In order to meet increasing power demand, taking into account economical and environmental factors, wind energy conversion is gradually gaining interest as a suitable source of renewable energy. The modeling of Wind Energy Conversion System(WECS) is done in MATLAB-SIMULINK. The dynamic d-q model of the induction generator is developed from the fundamentals in a modular approach in simulink. A fuzzy logic controller is designed for indirect vector control of induction generator. The vector control or field oriented control of induction motor and synchronous motors brought a renaissance in the high performance control of ac drives. In the vector control, the induction motor can be controlled like a separately excited dc motor. In a separately excited dc motor, because of decoupling, when the field current I f is controlled, it affects the field flux only but not the armature flux. Thus giving fast transient response in the dc drive .Because of the inherent coupling problem, an induction motor cannot give such a fast response. The dc machine like performance can also be extended to induction motor if the machine control is considered in the synchronously rotating reference frame (d e-q e), where the sinusoidal variables appear as dc quantities in steady state. The speed control loop uses a fuzzy logic controller to produce a direct axis current reference I d * which controls the motor flux. The motor torque is controlled by quadrature axis current reference I d *. The correctness and effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy logic controller are verified by the simulation results.

HIGHER STAGE DEVELOPMENT OF A FUZZY PI CONTROLLER FOR A GRID CONNECTED WIND ENERGY AND CONVERSION SYSTEM

In recent years power generation from renewable energy sources has gained importance in view of supplementing the power obtained from conventional sources. Out of all the renewable energy sources, wind energy conversion system is the greatest contributor to the power generations. During the recent years use of variable speed of the wind turbine is gaining much more importance than the fixed speed wind turbine. Important factors regarding variable speed operation are that it is easy to control and is even more efficient. Therefore, it is important to study the machine modelling of the double fed induction generator (DFIG) for a wind energy conversion system (WECS). One of the major areas in renewable power control includes the grid connected DFIG based WECS. Typically a DFIG based WECS consists of a Wind turbine connected to a DFIG and then the turbine-coupled DFIG is connected to the grid through a power electronic AC-AC converter. In this Paper a grid connected wind energy conversion system using a simple PI controller is developed and then a fuzzy PI controller is designed to resolve the problem. Finally a comparison has been made to fuzzy controller from the simulation results, observing the efficiency of variation of DC link voltage variation.

Fuzzy logic control of wind energy conversion system

J. Renewable Sustainable Energy, 2013

This paper proposes a variable speed control scheme of grid-connected wind energy conversion system, WECS, using permanent magnet synchronous generator. The control algorithm tracking the maximum power for wind speeds below rated speed of wind turbines (WTs) and ensure the power will not exceed the rated power for wind speeds higher than the rated speed of wind turbine. The control algorithm employed fuzzy logic controller (FLC) to effectively do this job. The WT is connected to the grid via back-to-back pulse width modulationvoltage source converter (PWM-VSC). Two effective computer simulation software packages (PSIM and SIMULINK) have been used to carry out the simulation effectively where PSIM contains the power circuit of the WECS and MATLAB/SIMULINK contains the control circuit of the system. The control system has two controllers for generator side and grid side converters. The main function of the generator side controller is to track the maximum power from wind through controlling the rotational speed of the turbine using FLC. In the grid side converter, active and reactive power control has been achieved by controlling d-axis and q-axis current components, respectively. V C 2013 American Institute of Physics. [http://dx.

A Design Fuzzy Logic Controller for a Permanent Magnet Wind Generator to Enhance the Dynamic Stability of Wind Farms

2012

In this paper, a design fuzzy logic controller for a variable speed permanent magnet wind generator connected to a grid system through a LC-filter is proposed. A new current control method of grid side conversion is developed by integrating the fuzzy controller, in which both active and reactive power, delivered to a power grid system, is controlled effectively. The fuzzy logic controller is designed to adjust the gain parameters of the PI controllers under any operating conditions, so that the dynamic stability is enhanced. A new simple method, based on frequency response of the bode diagram, is proposed in the design of the fuzzy logic controller. To evaluate the controller system capabilities, simulation analyses are performed on a small wind farm model system including an induction wind generator connected to an infinite bus. The simulations have been performed using PSCAD/EMTDC. Simulation results show that the proposed control scheme is more effective for enhancing the stability of wind farms during temporary and permanent network disturbances and randomly fluctuating wind speed, compared with that of a conventional PI controller.
