| Abstract | With improving techniques, reducing cost and low environmental impact, wind energy seems certain to play a major role in the worlds energy future. This paper deals with a variable speed device to produce electrical energy on a power network, based on a DFIG due to its many advantages such as the improved power quality, high energy efficiency and controllability, etc. First, a mathematical model of the DFIG written in an appropriate d-q reference frame is established to investigate simulations. Secondly, control the power flowing between the stator of the DFIG and the power network, a control law is synthesized using two types of controllers: PI and Pitch angle (Pitch-to-feather) controller. Their respective performances are compared in terms of power reference tracking, response to sudden speed variations, sensitivity to perturbations and robustness against machine parameters variations. |
