초록

Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) control needs to generate the maximum power of a tidal current turbine. A tidal current speed sensor is required to achieve effective generated power in a tidal current generation system. The most common methods used to achieve such power is the tip speed ratio of turbine and tidal current information. However, these methods have disadvantages, such as expensive installation of the tidal current sensor, parameter errors in turbine design, and different information according to the installed position of the tidal current sensor. This paper proposes a maximum power control scheme using perturb-and-observe (P&O) for tidal current generation system. The proposed P&O MPPT scheme can achieve the maximum power without tidal current sensors and turbine design parameters. The reliability and suitability of the proposed control scheme are proven through simulation and experiment results at the tidal current generation laboratory.
