Power Quality Enhancement for a Grid Connected Wind Turbine Energy System

Abstract

This research has developed a formula to control a wind turbine system connected to the grid side, which infuses available power and functions as an active power filtering to lessen implementation in different disturbances and raise power quality. A four-wire system with three-phase and single-phase straight and nonlinear loads are being investigated. The utility-side controller is designed to compensate for visibility disturbances caused by responsive, nonlinear, and out of balance single and intra-phase tons during the wind generator's link and provide active and responsive power as required. When wind power isn't available, the controller uses a dc-link capacitor and a power converter connected to the grid to improve power quality. The fundamental difference between the proposed approach and others in literary works is that the recommended control structure is based on the classic disintegration of power concepts. In this case, the power is decoupled, and existing guidelines for inverter management can still be used. The recommended control formula for comprehensive real-time application has been evaluated for its performance through real-time software application benchmarking. The control mechanism is implemented and verified in hardware-in-the-loop with the live simulator "Opal-RT" and TMSF28335 DSP microcontroller. The results confirmed our ability to increase quality while also allowing us to remove simple filters, resulting in a more compact, versatile, and reliable digital implementation of a smart-grid-based control.
