Robust Controller Design for IG Driven by Variable-Speed in WECS Using μ-Synthesis
Authors
Abstract:
This paper presents robust controller design for a wind-driven induction generator system using structured singular value ( -synthesis) method. The controller was designed for a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) and a variable blade pitch angle in a wind energy conversion system (WECS) in order to achieve the required voltage and mechanical power control. The results indicated that this controller offers satisfactory damping characteristics for closed loop systems. Effects of various system disturbances on dynamic performance of the WECS were evaluated in this study by a time domain nonlinear simulation and compared with the output feedback controller. The proposed designed controller showed to be more effective in regulating the load voltage and stabilizing the generator rotating speed for WECS.

Robust Controller Design Based-on Aerodynamic Load Simulator Identification Driven by PMSM for Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulations
Aerodynamic load simulators generate the required time varying load to test the actuator’s performance in the laboratory. Electric Load Simulator (ELS) as one of variety of the dynamic load simulators should follows the rotation of the Under Test Actuator (UTA) and applies the desired torque to UTA’s rotor at the same time. In such a situation, a very large torque is imposed to the ELS from the...
