Abstract
Torque control methods of wind turbine are mainly classified into two methods: torque-mode and speed-mode methods. The traditional torque-mode method, in which generator torque proportional to square of generator speed is determined, has been chosen in many wind turbines but its response is slower as they are larger in multi-MW size. Torque control methods based on both speed-mode and torque-mode can be used to make response of wind turbine faster. In this paper, two torque control methods based on the traditional torque-mode method are applied to a 2.75 MW wind turbine. It is shown through some simulation results for real turbulence wind speeds that torque control method based on torque-mode has the merit of reducing fluctuations of generated power than PI controller based on speed-mode.
