“…In order to control the output power of variable speed wind turbines, many papers have been focused on the generator torque control. Recent papers employed gain scheduling [5], high order sliding mode control schemes [6], disturbance observer [7], etc. The control objective of these papers is to maximize the power when the wind speed is low and to limit the power when the wind speed is above the rated value.…”
-Most variable speed wind turbines have pitch control mechanisms and one of their objectives is to protect turbines when the wind speed is too high. By adjusting pitch angles of wind turbine, the inlet power and the torque developed by the turbine are regulated. In this paper, the difference between the real wind speed and its rated value is regarded as a disturbance, and a component called disturbance observer (DOB) is added to the pre-designed control loop. The additional DOB based controller estimates the disturbance and generates a compensating signal to suppress the effect of disturbance on the system. As a result, the stability and the performance of the closed loop system guaranteed by an outer-loop controller (designed for a nominal system without taking into account of disturbances) are approximately recovered in the steady state. Simulation results are presented to verify the performance of the proposed control scheme.

“…High-order sliding mode approach suggests treating the chattering effect using a time derivative of control as a new control, thus integrating the switching [13]. Up to now, a few second-order sliding mode control approaches have been introduced for wind and marine applications [7], [14][15].…”
Abstract-Tidal currents are being recognized as a resource for sustainable electrical power generation. However, the main challenge for marine current energy development is to minimize the operation costs and maintenance operations in the marine harsh environment. These worries are justified by the incident high rates on offshore wind turbine systems. Marine current turbines are characterized by a very difficult access for regular or emergency maintenance operations. This is why the development of fault tolerant system is a key feature. This paper deals with the use of a PM multiphase marine current turbine generator. With this kind of system, it is possible to maintain the power production even if an electrical fault appears in the power converter. This system is associated with an optimal strategy of torque/speed control using a high-order sliding mode control which is particularly adapted to the healthy or faulty operation mode.
“…In an ideal case, careful usage of high order sliding mode control removes chattering as a concern [22][23][24]. Advances in generalizing the sliding mode control to these higher orders have allowed the system to maintain high accuracy and robustness while still reducing the effect of chattering [25][26][27].…”
Abstract:The subject of this paper pertains to sliding mode control and its application in nonlinear electrical power systems as seen in wind energy conversion systems. Due to the robustness in dealing with unmodeled system dynamics, sliding mode control has been widely used in electrical power system applications. This paper presents first and high order sliding mode control schemes for permanent magnet synchronous generator-based wind energy conversion systems. The application of these methods for control using dynamic models of the d-axis and q-axis currents, as well as those of the high speed shaft rotational speed show a high level of efficiency in power extraction from a varying wind resource. Computer simulation results have shown the efficacy of the proposed sliding mode control approaches.
