This article deals with the analysis, modeling, and control of the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) for wind turbines. The DFIG wind turbine can deliver more energy to the grid. There are some different methods to modify the DFIG system in order to accomplish the stator reactive power proposed. One of these methods is to modify the DFIG system for nominal voltage to evaluate cost and materials-efficiency consequences. A specific control strategy is implemented according to the vector control strategy. The proportional-integral (PI) regulators used are simple and precise controllers. This type of regulation, which is closed-loop rotor currents, allows adjustment of the sliding of the DFIG. This gives a good adjustment of the powers of the stator and the rotor. The percentage error of the simulation is less than 2 %. The results obtained in these investigations show that it is possible to adjust the powers of the stator, even with a variation of the parameters. The developed method will allow achieving the maximum efficiency of the wind energy conversion chain. The objective of this article is to optimize the quality of energy generated by wind turbines by controlling the reactive stator power and reducing the losses of the energy of the reactive stator power, which must be a physically minimal value. The results will be presented in the Matlab - Simulink environment.

In modern MW-size machines it has become a common practice to introduce controllers that provide active damping of turbine components to reduce blade, tower and drive-train loads, whilst optimising energy capture. However, as wind turbines become larger and more flexible, these controllers have to be designed with great care as the coupling between flexible modes increases and so does the potential to destabilise the turbine. The most direct method to address the above issues has been to exploit the pitch control capabilities. Individual Pitch Control (IPC) has been proposed many times over the last few years for load mitigation. Bearing this in mind, this paper investigates two different approaches to design a controller to pitch each blade individually in the wind turbine operating region III. The first one is a decentralised control algorithm and the second one is an H∞ loop shaping design. A controllability analysis of the wind turbine is also included in the paper. The investigation is conducted based on the NREL 5MW benchmark wind turbine. Turbine modeling and control is conducted in FAST and Simulink.
