In this strategy, first, the rotor speed is set at an optimal point for different wind speeds. As a result of which, the tip speed ratio reaches an optimal point, mechanical power coefficient is maximized, and wind turbine produces its maximum power and mechanical torque. Then, the maximum mechanical torque is tracked using electromechanical torque. In this technique, tracking error integral of maximum mechanical torque, the error, and the derivative of error are used as state variables. During changes in wind speed, sliding mode control is designed to absorb the maximum energy from the wind and minimize the response time of maximum power point tracking(MPPT). In this method, the actual control input signal is formed from a second order integral operation of the original sliding mode control input signal. The result of the second order integral in this model includes control signal integrity, full chattering attenuation, and prevention from large fluctuations in the power generator output. The simulation results, calculated by using MATLAB/m-file software, have shown the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy for wind energy systems based on the permanent magnet synchronous generator(PMSG).展开更多

This leads to the lower system inertia and the higher generator reactance, and hence the generator transient stability may negatively be affected. In particular, the impact on the transient stability may become more serious when the considerable amounts of PV systems are disconnected simultaneously during voltage sag. In this work, the generator transient stability in the power system with significant PV penetration is assessed by a numerical simulation. In order to assess the impact from various angles, simulation parameters such as levels of PV penetration, variety of power sources （inverter or rotational machine）, and existence of LVRT capability are considered. The simulation is performed by using PSCAD/EMTDC software.展开更多

文摘The investigation explores the mechanical stress and electromagnetic performance for a wind-driven synchronous reluctance generator(SRG).The change in the mechanical stress due to the presence of centripetal force,wind speed,and rotor speed are evaluated for different thickness of tangential and radial ribs.Moreover,the variation in the electromagnetic feature such as the q−and d−axes flux,reactance ratio,inductance,torque and torque ripple are discussed for different thickness of tangential and radial ribs.Increasing both tangential and radial ribs thickness has an effect on the electromagnetic performance,but it is observed that effect is significantly more with the variation of tangential rib thickness.Similarly,the mechanical stress analysis for rotor design has been explored in this paper.It is observed that high concentration of peak stress on the rotor ribs,which limits the range of rotor speed.
文摘As photovoltaic （PV） capacity in power system increases, the capacity of synchronous generator needs to be reduced relatively. This leads to the lower system inertia and the higher generator reactance, and hence the generator transient stability may negatively be affected. In particular, the impact on the transient stability may become more serious when the considerable amounts of PV systems are disconnected simultaneously during voltage sag. In this work, the generator transient stability in the power system with significant PV penetration is assessed by a numerical simulation. In order to assess the impact from various angles, simulation parameters such as levels of PV penetration, variety of power sources （inverter or rotational machine）, and existence of LVRT capability are considered. The simulation is performed by using PSCAD/EMTDC software.
