Parameter Identification of DFIG Converter Control System Based on WOA

Abstract

The converter is an important component of a wind turbine, and its control system has a significant impact on the dynamic output characteristics of the wind turbine. For the double-fed induction generator (DFIG) converter, the control parameter identification method is proposed. In this paper, a detailed dynamic model of DFIG with the converter is built, and the trajectory sensitivity method is used to study the observation points that are sensitive to the change of control parameters as the observation quantity for control parameter identification; the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) is used to study the converter control system parameters that dominate the output characteristics of DFIG in the dynamic full-process simulation. To validate the proposed method, four classical test functions are used to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm, and the control parameters are identified by setting a three-phase grounded short-circuit fault under maximum power point tracking (MPPT), and the identification results are compared with particle swarm optimization (PSO) and chaotic particle swarm optimization (CPSO) to show the superiority of the proposed method. The final results show that the proposed WOA can identify the control system parameters faster and more accurately.
