Abstract: | This paper proposes an adaptive maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control method to achieve the maximum power from the wind turbine (WT) power generation system. The MPPT control method has a vital role to find the maximum power point, and also compute the simulation results in both analysis such as offline using MATLAB/SIMULINK? and online using OPAL-RT simulator. The proposed adaptive perturb and observe (P&;O) algorithm provides better results using the OPAL-RT simulator compared to the P&;O method using MATLAB/SIMULINK?. The power generation through doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) WT system is becoming important day by day throughout the world. The simulation result by OPAL-RT simulator showed that the efficiency of WT-DFIG has been enhanced. |
