The Wind Energy Conversion System Using PMSG Controlled by Vector Control and SMC Strategies

Abstract

This paper deals with dynamic simulation of a directly driven wind generator with a full scale converter as interface to the grid. Using the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG), the system is controlled by two control strategies. I the first step, we have consider the vector (VC) strategy and in the second one, we have applied the sliding mode control (SMC) strategy. Simulation results investigate good performances of both proposed non linear approaches.
