Self-tuning Fuzzy Adaptive PID Pitch Control of Wind Power Systems

摘要

A large variable speed constant frequency (VSCF) wind power system usually adopts the variable pitch control technology to ensure the output power is steady to ensure the safety of the wind power system above the rated wind speed. But the strong nonlinear and large moment of inertia of wind turbine result in the difficulty of variable pitch control, both simple fuzzy control and conventional PID control can not achieve a good control effect. Concerning this issue, variable pitch control algorithm is proposed based on self-tuning fuzzy adaptive PID control strategy. According to the dynamic model of VSCF, a simulation model of wind turbine control system is built in this paper with Matlab/Simulink. When the wind speed is random variable above the rated speed, the simulation results show that the proposed control strategy can keep the output power of the system around the rated power.
