Comparison of doubly-fed induction generator and brushless doubly-fed reluctance generator for wind energy applications
Phd ThesisThe Doubly-fed Induction Generator (DFIG) is the dominant technology for variable-speed wind power generation due in part to its cost-effective partially-rated power converter.
However, the maintenance requirements and potential failure of brushes and slip rings is a significant disadvantage of DFIG. This has led to increased interest in brushless doubly-fed generators. In this thesis a Brushless Doubly-Fed Reluctance Generator (BDFRG) is compared with DFIG from a control performance point of view.
To compare the performance of the two generators a flexible 7.5kW test facility has been constructed. Initially, a classical cascade vector controller is applied to both generators. This controller is based on the stator voltage field orientation method with an inner rotor (secondary stator) current control loop and an outer active and reactive power control loop. The dynamic and steady state performance of two generators are examined experimentally. The results confirm that the BDFRG has a slower dynamic response when compared to the DFIG due to the larger and variable inductance.
Finally a sensorless Direct Power Control (DPC) scheme is applied to both the DFIG and BDFRG. The performance of this scheme is demonstrated with both simulation and experimental results.Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and Overseas Researcher Scholarship (ORS
Simulation of Power Control of a Wind Turbine Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator System
This thesis presents a control system for a 2MW direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous generator wind turbine system with the objectives to capture the optimal power from the wind and ensure a maximum efficiency for this system. Moreover, in order to eliminate the electrical speed sensor mounted on the rotor shaft of the PMSG to reduce the system hardware complexity and improve the reliability of the system, a sliding mode observer based PM rotor position and speed sensorless control algorithm is presented here.
The mathematical models for the wind turbine and the permanent magnet synchronous machine are first given in this thesis, and then optimal power control algorithms for this system are presented. The optimal tip speed ratio based maximum power point tracking control is utilized to ensure the maximum power capture for the system. The field oriented control algorithm is applied to control the speed of the PMSG with the reference of the wind speed. In the grid-side converter control, voltage oriented control algorithm is applied to regulate the active and reactive power injected into the power grid. What is more, sliding mode observer based sensorless control algorithm is also presented here. The simulation study is carried out based on MATLAB/Simulink to validate the proposed system control algorithms
Performance analysis of doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)- based wind turbine with sensored and sensorless vector control
PhD ThesisConventional energy sources are limited and pollute the environment. Therefore
more attention has been paid to utilizing renewable energy resources. Wind energy is
the fastest growing and most promising renewable energy source due to its
economically viability. Wind turbine generator systems (WTGSs) are being widely
manufactured and their number is rising dramatically day by day. There are different
generator technologies adopted in wind turbine generator systems, but the most
promising type of wind turbine for the future market is investigated in the present
study, namely the doubly-fed induction generator wind turbine (DFIG). This has
distinct advantages, such as cost effectiveness, efficiency, less acoustic noise, and
reliability and in addition this machine can operate either in grid-connected or
standalone mode. This investigation considers the analysis, modeling, control, rotor
position estimation and impact of grid disturbances in DFIG systems in order to
optimally extract power from wind and to accurately predict performance. In this
study, the dynamic performance evaluation of the DFIG system is depicted the power
quantities (active and reactive power) are succeed to track its command signals. This
means that the decouple controllers able to regulating the impact of coupling effect in
the tracking of command signals that verify the robust of the PI rotor active power
even in disturbance condition.
One of the main objectives of this study is to investigate the comparative
estimation analysis of DFIG-based wind turbines with two types of PI vector control
using PWM. The first is indirect sensor vector control and the other type includes two
schemes using model reference adaptive system (MRAS) estimators to validate the
ability to detect rotor position when the generator is connected to the grid. The results
for the DFIG-based on reactive power MRAS (QRMRAS) are compared with those of
the rotor current-based MRAS (RCMRAS) and the former scheme proved to be better
and less sensitive to parameter deviations, its required few mathematical computations
and was more accurate. During the set of tests using MATLAB®/SMULINK® in
adjusting the error between the reference and adaptive models, the estimated rotor
position can be obtained with the objective of achieving accurate rotor position
information, which is usually measured by rotary encoders or resolvers. The use of
these encoders will conventionally lead to increased cost, size, weight, and wiring
ii
complexity and reduced the mechanical robustness and reliability of the overall DFIG
drive systems. However the use of rotor position estimation represents a backup
function in sensor vector control systems when sensor failure occurs.
The behavioral response of the DFIG-based wind turbine system to grid
disturbances is analyzed and simulated with the proposed control strategies and
protection scheme in order to maintain the connection to the network during grid
faults. Moreover, the use of the null active and reactive reference set scheme control
strategy, which modifies the vector control in the rotor side converter (RSC)
contributes to limiting the over-current in the rotor windings and over-voltage in the
DC bus during voltage dips, which can improve the Low Voltage Ride-through
(LVRT) ability of the DFIG-based wind turbine system.my home country of Iraq and its

Super High-speed Miniaturized Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor
This dissertation is concerned with the design of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) to operate at super-high speed with high efficiency. The designed and fabricated PMSM was successfully tested to run upto 210,000 rpm The designed PMSM has 2000 W shaft output power at 200,000 rpm and at the cryogenic temperature of 77 K. The test results showed the motor to have an efficiency reaching above 92%. This achieved efficiency indicated a significant improvement compared to commercial motors with similar ratings. This dissertation first discusses the basic concept of electrical machines. After that, the modeling of PMSM for dynamic simulation is provided. Particular design strategies have to be adopted for super-high speed applications since motor losses assume a key role in the motor drive performance limit. The considerations of the PMSM structure for cryogenic applications are also discussed. It is shown that slotless structure with multi-strand Litz-wire is favorable for super-high speeds and cryogenic applications. The design, simulation, and test of a single-sided axial flux pancake PMSM is presented. The advantages and disadvantages of this kind of structure are discussed, and further improvements are suggested and some have been verified by experiments. The methodologies of designing super high-speed motors are provided in details. Based on these methodologies, a super high-speed radial-flux PMSM was designed and fabricated. The designed PMSM meets our expectation and the tested results agree with the design specifications. 2-D and 3-D modeling of the complicated PMSM structure for the electromagnetic numerical simulations of motor performance and parameters such as phase inductors, core losses, rotor eddy current loss, torque, and induced electromotive force (back-EMF) are also presented in detail in this dissertation. Some mechanical issues such as thermal analysis, bearing pre-load, rotor stress analysis, and rotor dynamics analysis are also discussed. Different control schemes are presented and suitable control schemes for super high- speed PMSM are also discussed in detail
