INTR ODUCTION The maximum po wer generation of a wind turbine has been interested in se v eral decades and man y algo- rithms ha v e been suggested. According to [1], pre vious maximum po wer point tracking (MPPT) methods can be listed into three groups including indirect po wer controller , direct po wer controller , and others. The indirect po wer controller which aims to maximize mechanical po wer by using tip-speed ratio [2], [3], optimal torque [4], and po wer signal feedback MPPT algorithm [5] is simplicity and only allo ws the wind turbine to track its MPPT -curv e quickly when a wind speed measurement is precise and instantaneous. In the case of an una v ailable wind measurement, a wind turbine using the indirect po wer controller f ails to track its maximum po wer point quickly and accurately [6], [7]. The direct po wer controller which maximizes electric po wer by using the perturbation and observ ation (P&O) algorithm such as: Hil l cl imb search [8], incremental conductance [9], optimal-relation based MPPT algorithm [10], [11], and h ybrid MPPT algorithm [12] does not require an y wind turbine kno wledge and a v ailable anemometer . Un- fortunately , a wind turbine using the direct po wer controller cannot track its maximum po wer because this controller cannot recognize instantaneously the v ari ation in wind speed. Until no w , this controller has been implemented to adjust the v oltage and current of DC circuit in a permanent magnetic synchronous generator wind turbine. The last group is de v eloped based on soft computing techniques lik e Fuzzy [13] and Neural netw ork [14]. A wind turbine us- ing these methods only has a good performance when the full information of the wind turbine is a v ailable. Ho we v er , these methods are comple xity and lar ge memory requirement. Hence, a ne w MPPT scheme for DFI G wind turbines should be researched. T o control the generator -wind turbine, proportional-inte gral (PI) control is normally implemented because of its simplicity [7], [15], [16]. Ho we v er , by using the PI control, we cannot guarantee the wind turbine system will become stable operation [17], [18]. Recently , control la ws based on sliding mode were suggested for rotor speed adjustment [19], [20]. Ho we v er , these control la ws require an a v ailable wind speed measurement. Hence, we need J ournal Homepage: http://iaescor e .com/journals/inde x.php/IJECE       I ns t it u t e  o f  A d v a nce d  Eng ine e r i ng  a nd  S cie nce   w     w     w       i                       l       c       m     DOI:  10.11591/ijece.v8i2.pp711-722 Evaluation Warning : The document was created with Spire.PDF for Python.

In this research, we suggest a ne w scheme to e xtract the maximum a v ailable po wer from a wind turbine emplo ying DFIG. This scheme is de v eloped from the feedback po wer algori thm b ut in this research, we do not require an anemometer . Ne w control la ws which are de v eloped upon L yapuno v function for rotor speed, current, and v oltage are proposed. This scheme is v alidated through numerical simulations of a wind turbine emplo ying DFIG. From simulation results, we will analyze and compare with the simulation results of a wind turbine using an old MPPT scheme. 2. DFIG WIND TURBINE A DFIG-wind turbine is described in pre vious publications, as sho wn in Fig. 1. Generally , it consists of a wind turbine, shaft-gearbox, doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG), and back-to-back con v erter . 2.1. W ind turbine When the wind turbine is rotating at a s peed of ! r and wind speed at the wind turbine is V w , the mechanical po wer of the turbine is calculated through blade length R , air density , and po wer coef ficient C p ( ; ) [21] P m ( t ) , 1 2  R 2 C p ( ; ) V 3 w ( t ) : (1) The wind turbine’ s po wer coef ficient C p ( ; ) depends on both pitch angle and tip speed ratio [16] ( t ) = R ! r ( t ) V w ( t ) : (2) At a constant , when increases C p ( ) will be decreased. In contrary , at a constant , C P ( ) reaches to a maximum v alue C p ( opt ) at = opt . 2.2. DFIG The DFIG’ s main objecti v e is to c o n v ert the mechanical po wer P m on the wind turbine shaft to el ectricity po wer P e . Relationship between P e and P m is described through the DFIG-wind turbine’ s inertia J J ! r ( t ) d d t ! r ( t ) = P m ( t ) P e ( t ) : (3) Generally , the DFIG is an induction generator so its rotor slip is defined as s ( t ) , 1 N p n ! r ( t ) ! s ; (4) where p n is the number of pole pairs; N is the gearbox ratio; ! s is the rotational speed of stator flux. In dq frame, the stator v oltage v s , v sd v sq > and rotor v oltage v r , v r d v r q > are computed from the stator current i s , i sd i sq > , rotor current i r , i r d i r q > , stator flux s ( t ) = sd ( t ) sq ( t ) > , rotor flux r ( t ) = r d ( t ) r q ( t ) > , rotor resistance r r , rotor inductance L r , stator resistance r s , stator inductance IJECE V ol. 8, No. 2, April 2018: 711 722 Evaluation Warning : The document was created with Spire.PDF for Python.

From [22] and by using (9) and (10), we calculate the stator side acti v e po wer P s in the DFIG as P s ( t ) = v sd i sd + v sq i sq = L m L s V s i r q ( t ) : (13) 2.3. Grid side con v erter F or the DFIG, the electricity frequenc y on the rotor side al w ays depends on the rotor speed ! r . Hence, to interf ace to the connected grid, a back to back con v erter which includes a rotor side con v erter(RSC), a DC-link, and a grid side con v erter (GSC) must be installed on t he rotor side of the DFIG [23].

Fig. 4b sho ws that when the wind speed has an i nsignificant change, the turbine speed is almost k ept up at its optimal v alue. Since the wind turbine’ s lar ge inertia, the turbine speed f ails to respond instantaneously to the rapid change of the wind; this mak es the turbine speed i mpossible to k eep up at its optimal v alue. Therefore, the error j ! r opt ! r j increases when the wind v elocity changes rapidly . Ho we v er , comparing with the turbine using the old MPPT scheme, by using the suggested scheme, the turbine speed can retain its optimal v alue more promptly because of the decrease in inertia from J to ( J ) and the error j ! r opt ! r j is smaller . As a result, during a rapid change in wind conditions, in the Maximum P ower Extr action Method for Doubly-fed Induction ...

Simulation results with 5% measurement nois e : (a) po wer coef ficient; ( b) error between P max and P m ; ( c) electrical ener gy output proposed method, C p restores C p max more quickly , as sho wn in Fig. 4c. Ob viously , by implem enting the old MPPT scheme, the C p can be reduced to to 0.363 while by implementing the proposed scheme, this data is 0.393. Figure 4 d sho ws the ef ficienc y of the suggested method comparing with the con v entional one in ter ms of mechanical po wer . When the wind v elocity v aries insignificantly , the error ( P max P m ) in the wind turbine using the suggested scheme is lik e that using the con v entional one. Ho we v er , this error becomes significant when the wind changes suddenly; by using the ne w method this error is significant smaller comparing with that using the old one thanks to the restoration of C p . Fig. 4e indicates that to increase the turbine v elocity in the period of 20s-40s, the turbine using the of fered scheme requires a higher mechanical po wer comparing with that using the old one. Ho we v er , the stored mechanical po wer is returned in the interv al of 60s-75s in which the rotor speed decreases. Hence, in the period of 20s-40s, comparing with the DFIG using the suggested scheme, the electric ener gy generated by the DFIG using the old MPPT method is little higher b ut in the 60s-75s interv al, it becomes opposite. As a result, accumulating to the end of simulation, the wind turbine using the con v entional method f ails to generate the electrical ener gy in total as high as that using the proposed method, as Fig. 4e. This indicates the quality of the suggested MPPT scheme. Fig. 5 sho ws the control quality of the RSC and GSC. Both ( ! 3 r ref ! 3 r ) and ( i r d ref i r d ) in Fig. 5a are v ery small, it means ! r and i r d track their reference v alues; in other w ords, the control la w proposing for the RSC has a good performance. Lik ely , from Fig. 5b, the errors of ( V 2 dc ref V 2 dc ) and ( i g q ref i g q ) are about zero; in other w ords, the controller suggesting for the GSC has a qualified performance. When a measurement noise, 5% of rated v alues, is added to the measurement signals, i , ! r , with the wind profile as Fig. 4a, the simulation results are sho wn in Fig. 6. This figure indicates that with the abo v e noise measurement, the turbine using t he recommended MPPT scheme still tracks its maximum points more e xactly comparing wit h the turbine using the old MPPT scheme. Ho we v er , comparing with the case of pure measurement as Fig. 4, the measurement noise causes a ne g ati v e impact on the turbine performance b ut this impact is insignificant. Fig. 7 is the simulation results for a wind profile which v aries rapidly as Fig. 7a. It is easy to see from Fig. 7b and Fig. 7c that the turbine using the suggested scheme has more qualified performance in both the po wer coef ficient C p and the electrical ener gy in total comparing with the case using the con v entional scheme.
