Abstract
This article presents the modeling, control design and simulation of a variable speed Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS). The WECS contains a wind turbine that drives a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). The wind turbine and the PMSG are connected to a DC bus voltage through AC/DC converter. The power at the DC bus voltage is injected to the power grid through an inverter and RL (resistance and inductance) filter. The purpose of the modeling is to apply a control design able to ensure the operation of the wind generator in the maximum power point, to keep the DC bus voltage stable in its reference value, and to independently control the active and reactive powers injected to the grid. In addition, a simulation test of the detailed WECS is presented to demonstrate the concepts discussed.
