Comparative study between sliding mode control and the vector control of a brushless doubly fed reluctance generator based on wind energy conversion systems

Introduction. Nowadays, global investment in renewable energy sources has been growing intensely. In particular, we mention here that wind source of grown recently. Purpose. Comparative study between sliding mode control and vector a brushless doubly fed reluctance generator based on conversion systems. Methods. This paper deals with conceptual analysis comparative two techniques promising low-cost doubly-fed for variable-speed turbine considering maximum power point tracking. machine's interest because the partially rated electronics high reliability design while offering performance competitive to its famous spring counterpart, induction generator. We are particularly interested comparing kinds methods. indicate direct Proportional-Integral controller controller. Results. Simulation results show optimized performances strategy observe terms response time reference tracking without overshoots through characteristics. The decoupling, stability, convergence towards equilibrium assured.
