Abstract
In this paper, we present the modeling and control of a grid connected Variable Speed Wind Energy Conversion System (VS-WECS) based on a Direct Driven Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (DD-PMSG). A new robust control has been proposed and utilized to operate the wind turbine so as to extract the maximum power from the wind energy and to ensure a unit power factor. This control is known as the Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) and it is based on the Extended State Observer (ESO). It consists in controlling, through the stator currents, the machine side converter in order to adapt the rotational speed of the generator to the different wind speed profiles (Maximum Power Point Tracking MPPT). In addition, it ensures the control of the DC bus voltage and the exchange of active and reactive powers between the wind turbine and the electrical power grid. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed control a series of simulations are made under the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. The results obtained by simulation show that the proposed strategy is efficient in terms of stability and precision as well as for the robustness with regard to the internal disturbances when variying the parameters of the machine.
