Abstract

This paper proposes the control method of MPPT(maximum power point tracking) for the wind energy generation system using the duty ratio control of boost type DC-DC converter. For a lower cost and a higher reliability, the wind and the generator velocity sensors are removed. MPPT control is implemented by changing the duty ratio of the boost converter. Chain rule is applied by using each function. The grid side inverter is controlled to regulate unity power factor. The proposed control method was analyzed mathematically and verified by the computer simulation using PSIM.
