Comprehensive Approach to Enhance the Output Power of DFIG-Based Wind Energy Conversion Systems

Abstract

This paper presents a method for measuring a wind turbine's MPP (Maximum Power Point) with a three-bladed VSWT that is driven by a DFIG (Double-Fed Induction Generator) (Variable Speed Wind Turbine). The rotor incorporates a DFIG with successive PWM voltage-source converters within its integrated rotor integrated circuit. Grid-side converters generate and establish sinusoidal currents while independently managing the active and reactive power drawn from the grid supply using vector control techniques. The rotor-side converter needs to be vector controlled in order for the speed range to function. The vector approach manages the permit circuit optimally to maximize the amount of wind energy gathered. The control needs of the permit circuit take this into account. Such a system is analyzed using MATLAB software
