Abstract

ABSTRACT In this paper, a novel direct power control technique founded on fuzzy logic controller (FLC-DPC) is selected to master and control the DFIG for wind energy conversion system (WECS). The fuzzy logic controller replaces both hysteresis regulators and the switching table in the proposed strategy. Seeking to enhance the control and overcome the defects associated with the conventional DPC (C-DPC) technique, this control depends on the errors of both active and reactive powers. The suitable rotor voltage vector for the inverter is obtained by FLC-DPC. The proposed control strategy is applied to the WT-DFIG system, in order to study its effectiveness. To reflect a real WECS operation, this study considers the wind’s random behaviour in successive and continuous ways throughout all WT-DFIG operating modes. Also, it takes into consideration all compensated local reactive power modes. The studied system and the proposed control were tested under MATLAB/Simulink environment. The obtained results showed the high effectiveness of the proposed control in terms of response time, robustness and ease. Consequently, C-DPC’s drawbacks are eliminated, and the ripples in compensated local reactive and produced active powers are reduced. Additionally, the total harmonic distortions (THDs) of injected currents are reduced, which improves their quality.
