Assessment of Linear and Nonlinear Control Techniques for Variable Speed Wind Turbine Systems
摘要
A wind turbine system with effective control can improve the controller and increase the amount of energy produced. As this work begins with a readjustment of some available control approaches, most analysis and research has taken place on the classical PI controller. Furthermore, the dynamic aspects of wind and aero-turbine are not taken into consideration, so their enhancement and performance are powerless. Advanced controllers are presented here in such a paper for enhancement; beyond that, the goal is to use wind turbine dynamics as a quantification tool. This paper presents the improved NSSFC and NDSFC controllers. The control target for the evaluated wind speed is to attain the optimum wind harvested energy while reducing mechanical loads. The MATLAB/SIMULINK environment was used to test and evaluate these techniques. The results also show the difference in control between the TSR and P&O methods, which will be the first step to open the space for working on the nonlinear techniques and the PI controller.
