Abstract:In spite of its several advantages, a classic direct power control (DPC) of doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs) driven by variable speed wind turbines has some drawbacks. In this paper, a simple and robust total sliding mode controller (TSMC) is designed to improve the classical DPC performance without complicating the overall scheme. The TSMC is designed to regulate the DFIG stator active and reactive powers. Two integral switching functions are selected for describing the switching surfaces of the active… Show more

This paper proposes a direct power control (DPC) strategy for the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) operating under variable wind speeds. Under this strategy, the active and reactive powers of the DFIG are directly controlled by the AC/DC converter, whose switching states were selected from a switch table. Besides, a two-level hysteresis corrector was selected to control the active and reactive powers, ensuring the dynamic performance of the DFIG. The effectiveness of the proposed DPC strategy was compared through MATLAB simulation with the field oriented control (FOC), a classical proportional-integral (PI) control strategy for wind turbines. The results show that the DPC strategy adjusted the instantaneous active and reactive powers in the grid perfectly with respect to their references, and realized the absorption of sinusoidal currents with a unity power factor. The proposed DPC strategy has a great application potential in wind power generation.

This paper presents direct power control (DPC) strategies using the super-twisting sliding mode control (STSMC) applied to active and reactive power control of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) supplied by a space vector modulation inverter for wind turbine system. Then, a control STSMC-DPC and SVM strategies are applied. The active and reactive powers that are generated by the DFIG will be decoupled by the orientation of the stator flux and controlled by super-twisting sliding mode control. Its simulated performance is then compared with conventional sliding mode control. The test of robustness of the controllers against machine parameters uncertainty will be tackled, and the simulations will be presented. Simulation results of the proposed controller (SMC-DPC) and (STSMC-DPC) scheme are compared for various step changes in the active and reactive power. This approach super-twisting sliding mode control is validated using the Matlab/Simulink software and the results of the simulation can prove the excellent performance of this control in terms of improving the quality of the energy supplied to the electricity grid.
“…1) Stator field oriented technique: In order to separately control the stator active and reactive powers of the wind turbine generator, the stator flux linkage is aligned with the direct axis of PARK reference frame [22,30]. There are other alignment possibilities in the literature such as using the stator voltage vector or rotor flux linkage, but using the stator flux vector still the most commonly used for control of the DFIG applications.…”
Section: B Stator Active and Reactive Powers Controlmentioning
In this work, a robust Adaptive sliding mode controller (ASMC) is proposed to improve the dynamic performance of the Doubly Fed Induction generator (DFIG) based wind system under variable wind speed conditions. Firstly, the dynamic modeling of the main components of the system is performed. Thereafter, the ASMC is designed to control the active and reactive powers of the machine stator. The structure of these controllers was improved by adding two integral terms. Their sliding gains are determined using Lyapunov stability theorem to make them automatically adjusted in order to tackle the external disturbances. Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) strategy was also applied to enhance the power system efficiency. Then, a comparison study with the Field Oriented Control (FOC) based on conventional PI control was conducted to assess the robustness of this technique under the DFIG parameters variations. Finally, a computer simulation was achieved in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment using 2MW wind system model. Satisfactory performances of the proposed strategy were clearly confirmed under variable operating conditions.
