Wind turbine, permanent magnet synchronous generator, power control
The objective of this paper is to present a power control strategy to direct-driven permanent magnetic synchronous generator wind turbines. This strategy is composed by two parts. One part to control the magnetic field of the generator system and the other to control the collective blade pitch angle. We slightly modify the standard field-oriented controllers to smooth the reference setpoints before they are sent to the generator system. The aim of this modification is to reduce fast dynamics on the generator device. On the other hand, the proposed collective pitch angle control seems to be a novel one which only use the information of the active power generated by the wind turbine. According to numerical experiments, our power control strategy displays an acceptable performance.
