Abstract
This paper devises a design named brushless doubly fed induction generator (BDFIG) with a fault ride-through enhancement that employs upgraded field-oriented control (FOC) scheme. The DFIG is most suitable for wind energy conversion system (WECS) because it has an amicable establishment, economical operation and promising characteristics. A WECS based on two BDFIGs connected electrically in parallel and mechanically in series, excited by a three-phase inverter and controlled as variable speed, is described. For enhancing power quality and power flow capability, static compensator (STATCOM) has been incorporated in the proposed configuration. The comparative analysis on performance has been carried out with the existing proportional-integral (PI) controller and self-tuning fuzzy logic controller (STFLC) for the proposed configuration under varying wind speed. In this paper, the fuzzy controller is designed to adapt PI parameters Kp and Ki, in order to reduce at least some inherent characteristics (overshoot, response time, etc.) of the error between the reference and system response. The digital simulation results claim that the FLC-based controller can offer an attractive and feasible control for the proposed WECS integrating two BDFIGs.
