In this paper, particle swarm optimization (PSO) is proposed to generate an On-Off Controller. On-Off Control scheme based maximum power point tracking is proposed to control the rotor side converter of wind turbine equipped with doubly fed induction generator connected to the grid with battery storage. The Grid Side Converter (GSC) is controlled in such a way to guarantee a smooth DC voltage a...

A dc-coupled wind/hydrogen/super capacitor hybrid power system using fuzzy logic is studied in this paper. The purpose of the control system is to coordinate these different sources, particularly their power exchange, in order to make controllable the generated power. As a result, an active wind generator can be built to provide some ancillary services to the grid. The control system should be ...

We have developed the ZENTURIO experiment management system for performance studies, parameter studies, and software testing of parallel applications on cluster and Grid architectures. In this paper we describe the design and implementation of ZENTURIO as a Web service-based distributed architecture. We highlight limitations of Web services for deployment on the Grid and propose solutions. Expe...

This paper presents the expansion of power quality for variable speed Wind Power System (WPS) using Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) and Trans Z-Source Inverter. The PMSG is having compact collection and dimensions, compare to Induction Generator. Induction Generator needs the grid power, then only start the power production. But without take up the grid power PMSG should produce t...

This paper describes the dynamic behaviour of a doubly-fed induction machine, operating with wind turbine. The rotor circuit of the machine consists only of a generator-side converter working under abnormal condition at stator side (fault condition and voltage drop take place in transmission lines of the grid system). The induction machine model is based on the stationary reference frame and th...

Wind is one of the most widely used nonconventional sources of energy. A back-to-back PWM converter is used as the excitation power supply for the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) wind power generation of variable speed constant frequency (VSCF).The Simulink model and control strategy of converter which is connected between rotor and grid is analyzed. Stator-flux oriented vector control ap...

A wind power system differs from a conventional power system. In a conventional power plant, the operator can control the plant's output. The output of a wind farm cannot be controlled because the output fluctuates with the wind. In this study, we investigated only the fixed-frequency induction generator, often used with wind turbines. We adopted the worst-case scenario and conducted a per-phas...

The epidemics of obesity and diabetes most apparent in recent years had their origins with Thomas Edison's development of distributed electricity in New York City in 1882. His original direct current (DC) generators suffered serious commutator brush arcing which is a major source of high-frequency voltage transients (dirty electricity). From the onset of the electrical grid, electrified populat...

Extraction of maximum energy from wind and transferring it to the grid with high efficiency are challenging problems. To this end, this study proposes a smart pitch controller for a wind turbine-doubly fed induction generator system using a Differential Evolution (DE) based adaptive neural network. The nominal weights for the back-propagation neural network controller are obtained from input-ou...

A sparse-grid method for solving multi-dimensional backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) based on a multi-step time discretization scheme [31] is presented. In the multi-dimensional spatial domain, i.e. the Brownian space, the conditional mathematical expectations derived from the original equation are approximated using sparse-grid Gauss-Hermite quadrature rule and (adaptive) hier...
