Abstract

Direct power smoothing control methods relying on the wind turbine itself have been widely studied to improve wind turbines’ output power quality, and the DC-link voltage control based on the capacitor of the wind power converter is one of them. In this paper, the principle of DC-link capacitor voltage control is studied at first, then an improved time interval DC-link voltage control strategy on the basis of a low-pass filter (LPF) is proposed and compared with existing DC-link voltage power smoothing controls. To further improve the power smoothing effect, the fuzzy logic control is used to adjust the time constant of LPF, and the maximum time constant in the fuzzy logic control is determined through convolution calculation. For the sake of ensuring the system stability, the transfer function of proposed DC-link voltage control is derived to determine proper parameters of voltage loop. The proposed fuzzy logic-based DC-link power smoothing strategy is verified through effective simulation results of the permanent magnet synchronous generator wind energy conversion system (PMSG-WECS).
