This paper proposes a new robust fuzzy gain scheduling of RST controller for a Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) based on a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). First, a designed fuzzy gain scheduling of RST controller is investigated, in which fuzzy rules are utilized on-line to adapt the RST controller parameters based on the error and its first time derivative. The aim of the work is to...

wind energy today, has attracted widespread interest from among a variety of sources of renewable energy in the world. owing to the increasing demand for production of electrical energy for electricity networks by using wind power, it is essential that wind power plants are actively incorporated in the network’s performance using an appropriate control system. in general, these wind power plant...

This paper deals with a control scheme to extract maximum power from the wind energy conversion system (WECS) using Maximum Power Point Tracking Algorithm (MPPT) from a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG). In order to ensure the continuous supply of power, battery backup is established. The control scheme for standalone system includes the charge controller circuit for battery bank and pitch ...

Variable speed operation is essential for large wind turbines in order to optimize the energy capture under variable wind speed conditions. Variable speed wind turbines require a power electronic interface converter to permit connection with the grid. The power electronics can be either partially-rated or fully-rated [1]. A popular interface method for large wind turbines that is based on a par...

This thesis investigates the stability effects of the integration of wind power on multimachine power systems. First, the small-signal stability effects of turbine governors connected to synchronous generators in the presence of large-scale penetration of wind and load power disturbances are analyzed. Results suggest that tuning the turbine governors when wind power generation is present can im...

So far, much attention has been not received by the influence of the control modes on the wind turbine efficiency in maximum wind energy extraction, which is investigated based on variable speed wind turbines with doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) under vector control in stator flux orientation (SFO) in the paper. Prior art has tended to have an importance on investigating the principle and...
