본 논문에서는 Psim프로그램을 이용하여 가변속 풍력터빈 시스템의 시뮬레이션 모델링과 해석을 수행하였다. 시뮬레이션에서는 제주 행원 풍력발전 단지에 설치되어 운영되고 있는 Vestas V47 660[kW] 시스템을 모델로 하여, 바람 모델, 블레이드 모델, 피치 제어모델과 계통선에 연계된 발전기를 모델링 하였다. 풍속의 변화에 따라 원하는 출력을 얻을 수 있도록 피치각 제어를 수행하여 정격풍속 이하에서는 최대 출력이 발생하도록 하고, 정격풍속 이상에서는 회전자 속도를 일정하게 운전하여 정격출력을 유지할 수 있도록 제어하였다. 제안한 해석방법의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 풍속변화에 따른 모델 시스템의 실측출력 데이터와 시뮬레이션 결과 값을 서로 비교 검증하였으며, 이 결과 서로 잘 일치함을 알 수 있었다.

The paper presents a simulation model and analysis of a grid-connected variable speed wind energy conversion scheme (VSWECS) using the PSCAD/EMTDC software. The modeled system uses a variable speed drive, a fixed pitch angle, a synchronous generator as a wind generator and an AC-DC-AC conversion scheme, which facilitates the wind generation to efficiently operate under varying wind speed while connected to the distribution network. The power output of the WECS is controlled by the AC-DC-AC conversion scheme, the objective of which is to capture the maximum active power under varying wind conditions and to keep the voltage magnitude of the terminal bus at a specific level. Aerodynamic models are applied for a wind turbine model. An simulation analysis of the scheme in terms of its responding to wind variations is also presented.

This paper presents a modeling and simulation of a fuzzy controller for maximum power extraction of a grid-connected wind energy conversion system with a link of a rectifier and an inverter. It discusses the maximum power control algorithm for a wind turbine and proposes, in a graphical form, the relationships of wind turbine output, rotor speed, power coefficient, tip-speed ratio with wind speed when the wind turbine is operated under the maximum power control. The control objective is to always extract maximum power from wind and transfer the power to the utility by controlling both the pitch angle of the wind turbine blades and the inverter firing angle. Pitch control method is mechanically complicated, but the control performance is better than that of the stall regulation method. The simulation results performed on MATLAB will show the variation of generator's rotor angle and rotor speed, pitch angle, and generator output.

In variable-speed variable-pitch wind turbines, the conventional approach for controlling power-production operation relies on a generator-torque controller and a rotor-collective blade-pitch controller. Both controllers use the generator speed measurement as the sole feedback input. In order to mitigate unwanted excitation of the control system, many filters are adopted. In this study, the characteristics of some filters for signal processing are investigated based on frequency response function. They include low-pass filters, band-pass filters, and notch filters. Especially, this study focuses on design parameters of their filters.

This paper deals with the application of LQ control to the power curve tracking control of wind turbine. However, two more additional tasks are required to apply the LQR theory to wind turbine control. One is the tracking problem instead of regulation, because the wind turbine is controlled as variable speed and variable pitch. The other is LQ integral control., because the rotor speed should be tightly controlled without any steady state error. Starting from the analysis of wind characteristics, design requirement of a wind turbine control system is defined. A design procedure of LQ tracking with integral control is introduced. The performance of LQ tracking system is analyzed and evaluated by numeric simulation.

This paper presents the efficiency of a floating vertical axis wind turbine with variable-pitch. A model was designed to use the lift force and drag force for blades with various pitch angles. The blade's pitch angle is controlled by the stopper. To validate the efficiency of the wind turbine discussed in this paper, a model test was carried out through a single model efficiency experiment and wave tank experiment. The parameters of the single model efficiency experiment were the wind speed, electronic load, and pitch angle. The wave tank experiment was performed using the most efficient pitch angle from the results of the single model efficiency experiment. According to the results of the wave tank experiment, the surge and pitch motion of a structure slightly affect the efficiency of a wind turbine, but the heave motion has a large effect because the heights of the wind turbine and wind generator are almost the same.

We propose a torque and pitch control scheme for variable speed wind turbines with permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). A torque controller is designed to maximize the power below the rated wind speed and a pitch controller is designed to regulate the output power above the rated wind speed. The controllers exploit the sliding mode control scheme considering the variation of wind speed. Since the aerodynamic torque and rotor acceleration are difficult to measure in practice, a finite time convergent observer is designed which estimates them. In order to verify the proposed control strategy, we present stability analysis as well as simulation results.

In this paper, we consider variable speed wind turbine systems containing uncertain elements. Though PI controller is generally used for pitch control, it cannot guarantee a stability and performance of the complicated wind turbine systems. A robust pitch control scheme is proposed to regulate the electric power output above the rated wind speed. The pitch controller is designed in order to guarantee uniform boundedness and uniform ultimate boundedness based on the bound values of the set where the uncertainties are laid or moves. In order to verify the proposed control scheme, we present stability analysis and simulation results using Matlab/Simulink.
