A 3-Ф grid connected wind system with a technique of DC link control using fewer sensors with fuzzy controller

Abstract

PurposeThis paper aims to provide a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) wind turbine, which feeds electric power (AC) to the power grid. The converter, located on the machine side, is used to produce the full amount of wind power. Research on wind energy conversion system (WECS) is carried out in this study using a direct wind turbine in MATLAB with constant and variable speeds.Design/methodology/approachThis paper is about WECS using PMSG and is connected to a grid of two serial converters with common DC connections.FindingsThis paper aims to provide the value of DC connection voltage at its base, regardless of the wind speed alterations, the inverter's output ac voltage can be kept constant.Originality/valueThis paper aims to provide a Hill Climb Search maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm is an effective control system for extracting maximum energy, also called voltage control, pitch control, phase-locked loop (PLL) controls, from a wind turbine. Using the Fuzzy controller, the grid side converter is controlled.
