    Performance analysis of robust and nonlinear MPPT controllers for autonomous wind power system
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Gudimindla, G.; Manjunatha Sharma, K.M.
    This paper presents the performance analysis of nonlinear and robust control strategies for the maximum power extraction from permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) based autonomous wind energy conversion system (WECS) under varying wind speed. The Nonlinear control strategy aims to achieve improvement in speed tracking performance by using feedback linearization method used to select the optimal control input by compensating nonlinearities in the WECS directly driven by PMSG. In order to design the Robust Quantitative Feedback Theory (QFT) based controller and multi model QFT controller for the WECS based on PMSG, the nonlinear system is represented by a series of linear time invariant transfer functions around different operating points. Robust controllers are designed for proper selection of optimal control input to extract maximum power for every wind speed. Performance analysis is done from the MATLAB simulation results among the controllers for the PMSG based WECS. Multi model QFT controller is recommended for their enhanced performance. © 2016 IEEE.

    Comparison of LVRT Enhancement for DFIG-Based Wind Turbine Generator with Rotor-Side Control Strategy
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020) Hiremath, R.; Moger, T.
    In DFIG, severe grid faults usually affect the wind turbine generator. Even in the extreme faults, LVRT is a solution for the grid connected wind generator. This paper deals with the LVRT enhancement through the rotor side controller explaining the co-ordinated control and feed-forward current control of the wind turbine based DFIG. The comparison is made between the controllers in accordance with the DFIG LVRT method. The approach of both controllers limits the maximum rotor current values and electromagnetic torque oscillations at the moment of occurrence and when the fault has been cleared. On the other hand, due to the PI-R controller being considered, the effects of the PI controller failure are presented. The best LVRT controller is shown when comparing the results of improved DFIG transient behavior and system stability. The outcome of this paper demonstrates that the FCRC approach to LVRT process is effective over the co-ordinated control. © 2020 IEEE.

    LVRT improvement of DFIG driven wind generator with rotor control
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020) Hiremath, R.; Moger, T.
    The grid faults generally perturb the performance of wind turbine (WT) generator. Consequently, these issues offer the low voltage ride through (LVRT) as a solution for the grid associated wind generator under the fault conditions. This paper presents the enhancement of the LVRT capabilities of the DFIG based wind generator through the rotor side controller. The active and reactive power controls are used along with the proposed PID controller. Furthermore, the performance of the proposed PID controller is compared with the results of the PI controller. In addition, the drawbacks/failures of the PI controller are also highlighted. Finally, the simulation results with the PID controller exhibits the LVRT enhancement and stability of the DFIG system. © 2020 IEEE
