Environmentally friendly solutions are becoming more prominent than ever as a result of concern regarding the state of our deteriorating planet. This paper presents a new system configuration of the front-end rectifier stage for a hybrid wind/photovoltaic energy system. This configuration allows the two sources to supply the load separately or simultaneously depending on the availability of the energy...
This paper introduces a new control method to track the maximum power point for a Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS). This WECS is based on a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) fed by a matrix converter. Since the mechanical power generated by the wind turbine is a function of its shaft speed at a given wind velocity, the proposed controller provides the desired voltage at the output...
Wind energy systems are being closely studied because of its benefits as an environmentally friendly and renewable source of energy. Because of its unpredictable nature, power management concepts are essential to extract as much power as possible from the wind when it becomes available. In this paper an algorithm has been developed to keep the system at its highest possible efficiency at all times...
This paper presents a new adaptive control algorithm for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) in wind energy systems. A mathematical model of a wind turbine system is also provided. The proposed control algorithm allows the generator to track the optimal operation points of the wind turbine system under fluctuating wind conditions and the tracking process speeds up over time. This algorithm does not...
