Comparative analysis of maximum power point tracking controller for wind energy system

摘要

This paper proposes an adaptive maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control method to achieve the maximum power from the wind turbine (WT) power generation system. The MPPT control method has a vital role to find the maximum power point, and also compute the simulation results in both analysis such as offline using MATLAB/SIMULINK and online using OPAL-RT simulator. The proposed adaptive perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm provides better results using the OPAL-RT simulator compared to the P&O method using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The power generation through doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) WT system is becoming important day by day throughout the world. The simulation result by OPAL-RT simulator showed that the efficiency of WT-DFIG has been enhanced.
