Passivity-based power control of a doubly fed induction generator with unknown parameters

Abstract

Summary An alternative solution for power regulation of doubly fed induction generators is proposed in this work by a proper combination of passivity‐based controllers with algebraic approaches for online estimation of system parameters and mechanical torque. Our proposal shows that the stability property of the original closed‐loop system is preserved, without the restriction of explicitly knowing the parameters and mechanical torque of the induction generator. A performance evaluation study is performed on the passivity‐based power control scheme considering typical/normal operation conditions for the electrical power generation system, namely active power generation with either demanded or delivered reactive power. Analytical and numerical results prove the effectiveness of the power control scheme combined with the proposed real‐time estimators of parameters and torque.

An online algebraic estimation approach of parameters and variable mechanical torque in shunt DC motors

“…In the context of vibration control, algebraic schemes have been proposed for online estimation of parameters and excitation forces of vibrating mechanical systems with multiple degrees of freedom by Beltran‐Carbajal et al (see, eg, other works() and references therein). Furthermore, an algebraic approach has been recently introduced for estimation of parameters and constant mechanical torque for closed‐loop power regulation tasks of doubly fed induction generators with very good outcomes . Thus, the present paper constitutes a natural extension of previous contributions of the authors to the online and simultaneous estimation problem of parameters and variable mechanical torque in nonlinear energy conversion systems.…”

Adaptive neuronal induction motor control with an 84‐pulse voltage source converter

“…Similarly, a concurrent PI control technique for speed regulation of a 2.95‐hp induction motor is implemented using a Semikron voltage source inverter in [27]. Passivity‐based controllers combined with online algebraic estimation of system parameters and mechanical torque have been also implemented by the authors for asymptotic power regulation of an induction machine [28]. Here, adaptive‐like nonlinear power regulation control implementation exhibits reasonable values of rise time, overshoot and settling time around desired equilibrium power values.…”

Dual‐passivity‐based control strategy of modular multilevel matrix converter

“…Based on the decoupling model of M3C under double αβ 0 transformation, this paper proposes a passivity‐based control strategy for the M3C input‐side and output‐side, 24‐27 that is, dual‐passivity‐based control (DPBC) strategy. Compared with the traditional PI control strategy, that is, dual‐PI control (DPIC) strategy, the passivity‐based controller designed by using the passivity‐based control theory can achieve the global stability of the system, no singular point, and so on 28 .…”
