This paper presents the review of the Doubly fed Induction Generator (DFIG) based Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS). Basically the various challenges of the grid connected DFIG based wind turbine has been highlighted in this review. Nonlinear model of wind turbine with DFIG configuration are explained and a 1.2 MW, 50 Hz, 6 pole DFIG simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK. Some important control is...

In renewable power generation the wind energy has been noted as the most rapidly growing technology; it attracts interest as one of the most cost-effective ways to generate electricity from renewable sources. Wind generation system has potential application for the grid support. The voltage of the direct driven permanent magnet wind generators (PMSG) is variable due to the intermittent nature o...

Robust model predictive control (RMPC) of a class of nonlinear systems is considered in this paper. We will use Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) model of the nonlinear system. By taking the advantage of having future values of the scheduling variable, we will simplify state prediction. Because of the special structure of the problem, uncertainty is only in the B matrix (gain) of the state space m...

one of the main problems in wind energy conversion system (wecs) is how to achieve maxim­u­m output power in different wind speeds. maximum methods for maximum power point tracking in wind energy conversion syst­e­ms require the knowledge of system characteristics and mechanic sensors. so, using these methods practically will follow with high price and an abundant difficulties. in this paper, n...

The wind energy conversion system can deliver the maximum power when the load impedance matches with the source impedance under a given wind speed. Since the load and wind speed are varying dynamically, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) becomes more complex. A wind-generator (WG) maximum-power-point tracking (MPPT) system is presented in the present work, consisting of a high efficiency b...

This paper presents the study of a variable speed wind energy conversion system based on a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) based on a sliding mode control applied to achieve control of active and reactive powers exchanged between the stator of the DFIG and the grid to ensure a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) of a wind energy conversion system. The proposed control algorithm is applied...

This paper refers to modeling, simulation and analysis of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbines. This paper presents the modelling of DFIG based WT system and the simulation results performed for the system developed in Simulink environment of MATLAB . A gird connected wind energy generation model is developed and simulated for normal operation and for some faults in the grid. the an...

The fluctuating nature of wind power introduces several challenges to reliable operation of power system. With high wind power penetration, conventional power plants are displaced and wind speed fluctuations introduce large power imbalances which lead to power system frequency control and operational problems. This paper analyses the impact of wind power in the frequency control of power system...

One of the disadvantages in Connection of wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) to transmission networks is plentiful turbulence of wind speed. Therefore effects of this problem must be controlled. owadays, pitch-controlled WECSs are increasingly used for variable speed and pitch wind turbines. Megawatt class wind turbines generally turn at variable speed in wind farm. Thus turbine operation m...
