Abstract
The paper presents the design and the implementation of a direct predictive control of a variable speed wind energy conversion system. The conversion chain uses a Doubly Fed Induction Generator DFIG whereas the control method is based on a Finite States Model Predictive Control FS-MPC. The proposed control method selects the optimal switching state of the two levels back to back power converter that minimizes the cost function, where this optimal voltage vector is applied on the output of the power converter in next sampling time. The proposed predictive control strategy uses only one sample time prediction and it is intuitive since it is very simple for implementation. In order to adjust the measured rotor currents to track their references, the error between orthogonal rotor current components predictions to their computed values used to select the optimal vector and applied on the power converter in rotor side CSR in next sampling time. On other side, based on the error between the active and reactive power prediction and their references of the electrical grid, the predictive algorithm control of the gird side converter CSG kept the Dc-link voltage constant and guarantee that the whole system functioning with unity power factor. The experimental results confirm the advantages of using this structure for wind energy conversion system and the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
