Abstract

This paper investigates direct torque control with a fuzzy controller (F-DTC) for a two-level voltage source inverter feeding the rotor of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) based on a variable-speed wind energy conversion system (VSWECS). The wind turbine's MPPT technology is used to obtain the torque reference. The proposed fuzzy logic-based direct torque control (F-DTC) is designed to eliminate the flux and electromagnetic torque ripples that are common with existing (DTC) controls, leading to smoother operation and improved efficiency in the wind energy conversion system. The fuzzy logic controller improves switching decision-making by handling uncertainties and non-linearities, resulting in smoother and more efficient control of the torque and flux. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed F-DTC method, simulations are conducted in MATLAB/SIMULINK, and the results are compared with those of the classical DTC approach. The findings demonstrate that the F-DTC strategy significantly reduces torque and flux ripples, enhances the dynamic response, and improves overall system performance.
