Pitch angle control is considered as a practical technique for power regulation above the rated wind speed. As conventional pitch control commonly the proportional–integral controller is used. However, the proportional–integral type may well not have suitable performance if the controlled system contains nonlinearities as the wind turbine system or the desired wind trajectory varied with higher frequency. In the presence of modeling uncertainties, the necessity of methods presenting controllers with appropriate performance as the advanced control strategies is inevitable. The pitch angle based on fuzzy logic is proposed in this work. We are interested to the development of a wind energy conversion system based on permanent magnet synchronous generator. The fuzzy logic controller is effective to compensate the nonlinear characteristics of the pitch angle to the wind speed. The design of the proposed strategy and its comparison with a conventional proportional–integral controller are carried out. The proposed method effectiveness is verified using MATLAB simulation results.


A doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) applied to wind power generation driven by wind turbine is under study for low voltage ride-through application during system unbalance. Use of DFIG in wind turbine is widely spreading due to its control over DC voltage and active and reactive power. Conventional dq axis current control using voltage source converters for both the grid side and the rotor side of the DFIG are analyzed and simulated. An improved control and operation of DFIG system under unbalanced grid voltage conditions by coordinating the control of both the rotor side converter (RSC) and the grid side converter (GSC) is done in this thesis. Simulation and analysis of DFIG system with wind turbine using Fuzzy logic controller for RSC and GSC under unbalanced condition is presented in the positive synchronous reference frame. The common DC-link voltage is controlled by grid side converter and control of DFIG’s stator output active and reactive power is controlled by rotor side converter. The steady-state operation of the DFIG and its dynamic response to voltage sag resulting from a remote fault on the 120-kV system is shown in this thesis using controllers. Modeling of DFIG system under Fuzzy logic controller to control voltage and active-reactive powers is done using MATLAB/SIMULINK.

In transmission line, the series compensation is used to improve stability and increases the power transmission capacity. It generates sub synchronous resonance (SSR) at turbine-generator shaft due to the interaction between the series compensation and wind turbine system. To solve this, several methods have been presented. However, these provide less performance during contingency period. Therefore, to mitigate the SSR and also to improve the dynamic performance of hybrid wind and PV system connected with series compensated wind farms, the adaptive technique of the Black Widow Optimization algorithm based Fuzzy Logic Controller (BWO-FLC) with UPFC is proposed in this paper. Here, the objective function is solved optimally using BWO technique. Based on this, the Fuzzy Logic Controller is designed. The results proved that the proposed controller performs the mitigation of SSR. The damping ratios of proposed controller to mitigation of SSR are 0.0098, 0.0139, and 0.0195 for wind speed of 6, 8 and 10 m/s respectively.

The existing solutions for reducing total harmonic distortion (THD) using different control algorithms in shunt active power filters (SAPFs) are complex. This work proposes a split source inverter (SSI)-based SAPF for improving the power quality in a nonlinear load system. The advantage of the SSI topology is that it is of a single stage boost inverter with an inductor and capacitor where the conventional two stages with an intermediate DC-DC conversion stage is discarded. This research proposes inventive control schemes for SAPF having two control loops; the outer control loop regulates the DC link voltage whereas the inner current loop shapes the source current profile. The control mechanism implemented here is an effective, less complex, indirect scheme compared to the existing time domain control algorithms. Here, an intelligent fuzzy logic control regulates the DC link voltage which facilitates reference current generation for the current control scheme. The simulation of the said system was carried out in a MATLAB/Simulink environment. The simulations were carried out for different load conditions (RL and RC) using a fuzzy logic controller (FLC) and PI controllers in the outer loop (voltage control) and hysteresis current controller (HCC) and sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) in the inner loop (current control). The simulation results were extracted for dynamic load conditions and the results demonstrated that the THD can be reduced to 0.76% using a combination of SPWM and FLC. Therefore, the proposed system proved to be effective and viable for reducing THD. This system would be highly applicable for renewable energy power generation such as Photovoltaic (PV) and Fuel cell (FC).
